Wouldn’t you know it, the same day I decide to order a ribbon and some paper 
for my HP 82905B (aka Epson MX80) printer, the AC line filter cap (C1 on the 
MFIL board), expelled its magic smoke rather impressively.  After some cleanup, 
the printer has been banished to the garage until the smell diminishes.  It 
appears to be a 250 V, 0.1 µF X type.  What manufacturers have good reliability 
for this application, in your opinion?
