    I’m also pretty sure that cats understand human languages and just choose to ignore us most of the time.

    Oh, you need to print a form before going to the airport because of some outdated entry requirement? Sure, I will jam the paper 3 times, ask for a magenta cartridge after failing printing, even if you are printing black only, and then i will ask to sacrifice your first born when you are getting desperate to print and leave!

    If you only print occasionally, do it at the library. Far better to rely on community printers that are running often to keep the ink warm.

    Have a small-office level printer. Zero trouble for a decade. Previously had a succession of inkjets and had to deal with bloated software, greedy refills and restrictions on them, and flawed scanner feeds.

    Never buying those things again.

    i heard the reason the printer wastes your cyan or magenta and refuses to print without it even for black and white prints is that it has to finger print the paper so it can be traced back to you

    I tripped and fell a while ago. I have no idea how it happened but I’m pretty sure I heard the printer chuckle. I’ve been sleeping with the lights on and a balled-up sheet of paper under my pillow ever since. If it tries anything, I’m shoving that paper in its paper tray. And then I’ll say something cool like “I hope you brought your guitar, cause it’s time to jam!”

    Castielsprostate has been using HP inkjet printers for too long. They need to get a Brother laser printer.

    still not the printers themselves but the horrible people behind them.
