Printers are so cheap to buy. It would be costly in time and money to modify the P/S to work at 220v. Quite complicated. It is much more easier and would cost less to just buy a 220V model.

However,  I notice most HP printers that are shipped with 120V power cords are also capable to run at 220V  using a different power cord. You can try this and either your printer will either immediately emit smoke and you will hear a loud pop..or else work perfectly.

The 4350 used different power supplies for input voltages. Here is one for 220V: https://www.ebay.com/itm/RM1-1071-000CN-Power-supply-assembly-For-HP-LaserJet-4240-4250-4350-220V/323077598526
Replacing it is an involved process: http://www.lbrty.com/tech/articles/4200/swingplatelong/swingplate_long.html

If you are really interested in using this printer you might find a 220V to 120V converting mains transformer as a solution option. A replacement OEM P/S would cost at least USD $70, but a stepdown transformer requires no installation.

You want the quick and easy answer....?

Yep.

Have a look at this sort of thing: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field-keywords=240+volt+step+down+transformer+2000w

These come in various capacities, but just make sure you get one that is at least "rated" 50% higher than the printer draws.  Personally, I'd go double.  For the 4350 I have found a figure of 790W - so I'd be looking at something with at least a 1500W rating.  2000W seems to be the commonly available figure.  Always go high here ... it adds a safety margin.


Also - such a unit is self contained and universal.  If the printer gets replaced, you could use the transformer for something else ... or sell it.
