We can either get the switch to light when flipped, or no light but the printer starts up. I'm at my wits end...this can't be that hard. Please PM me or reply here so I can get this finished. Thank you!!
If they only ran two wires to the switch.... This can be done except it is backwards. When the switch is open, the light (like a neon bulb or such) is across the switch contacts and anything further down the wire like the power supply will allow a small amount of current to flow and the light will light up. But if you turn on the switch, there is no voltage across the switch contacts and the light goes out.

Is it possible the switch was lit up when in the off position?
