Hello,
I have a Mx421 with a broken Start button. The switch on the panel board is broken.
Could I use the operation panel from another used machine?
I've read somewhere that you can't do this with Lexmark machines.
Thank you.

From everything I have been told you can't. I have never tried to swap pwbs in Lexmarks to see what will happen.
If you can leave a loaner you might try on of these tact switches from DigiKey:
EVQ-P9W02M
EVQ-P9102W
EVQ-P9102M
TL6330AF200Q
EVQ-P2602W
.068 vs. $123.72
These are surface mount and not easy to replace.
The Op Panel on Lexmark's hold critical printer information. Can't replace with a used or refurbished. Must be new so the information can be copied from the systemboard/mainboard (DC Controller).
A smart designer would have split the part of the pwb with the keyswitches from the LCD diplay. Very stupid design and I think most if not all new Lexmarks are made this way.
