Operating temperatures for computers/parts?

I know a lot is written about the upper extremes in operating tolerance temperatures for computers / parts, but what are the lower extremes?

I'm starting to wonder, since I have a printer here which randomly stops working. It works fine for me all the time, but occasionally the person it belongs to tries to print and gets an error saying the printer is not working or some such thing.

I found out the room this printer is kept in is kept pretty cold (around 60F is probably not out of the question).

So, could the temperature of the room cause the printer to not work (maybe cause the ink to be too thick for the printer?)?

60F=15C which is somewhat Reasonable temperature for A printer.
Give me more detail about the Printer (Model + Make) and I will look for detailed specs.
I have once operated an Ink printer in 3C and it worked like charm (but please don't ask me where... I can't tell you...).

Cheers and Good Luck

The only time I've seen a computer failure due to low temperatures is when the room temp dropped below 10 degrees F--then the monitor refused to turn on.... :)

Look closely into the Post - the tech is talking about Printer - Ink Printer.
He/She affraid that the ink Might turned solid from the cold, This may be below some temprature.

Yeah, I know. The system I described still printed to it's Cannon Bubblejet down to where it got too cold for the monitor to post up. (The computer was at a job-site in Missoula, Montana and they didn't get the building up enough to heat it until spring....)

HP's service manuals list the Operating Temperatures for their servers from 5C to 40C (41F to 104F). Concerning their DeskJet (inkjet) printers, they recommend 5C to 40C also.

Hope this helps out somewhat...
