    Ask the person you are going to sell them to. Not being a jerk or sarcastic at all here, it's just that buyers grade them differently and pay differently for each type. Instead of going crazy, you could just cut to the chase with your buyer of choice...

    Another tip - if you end up getting tons of printers in sort by age/type of printer. Old dot matrix have some green boards with tons of IC's on them, where a laser printer will have less. If you have them pre-sorted like that you should be able to get better prices for them from your buyer.
