I need to print this on paper. But I'm out of power cords with IEC connectors, which my printer needs. Oh, why didn't I order spares?
Oh, this is crazy stupid, but I can use the input power cord from my server rack UPS. Will it hold the power for long enough for me to do my printing? I'll go for it.

@autkin@fosstodon.org Been there. Running a home server setup means you always have almost the right cable somewhere in a drawer. Hope the UPS battery held long enough for the print job!
