[pic]printers are evil


Recommended Posts

I once destroyed an HP Photosmart when it told me the almost full cartridges had expired.

I went and brought the cheapest Cannon printer that was < 1/2 the price of the replacement cartridges, and it still works fine two years on.

For my printer, I only replace cartridges when I start seeing empty streaks across pages. The printer does complain about empty cartridges on its LCD display but you can still dismiss the warning and print as you would.

A bit mental that some of you are talking of printers/AIOs refusing to operate on low/empty/non-existent cartridges :s

Printers are the #1 forgotten about device when setting up a computer and they are the #1 headache when troubleshooting.

Have 3 mfp's...one of the mfp's decides one day to stop printing the company logo, everything else prints just fine...just the company logo from 1 document. Would you believe the nic was bad? Yeah neither could I...everything else prints fine, logos print fine on other documents, 1 document logo doesn't print, switch nic between printers and the issue follows the nic. Really wtf.

I agreed with everything in the OP until I got my new HP photosmart, I think manufactures are actually starting to realise the problems us normal people have with printers :p It's actually a little creepy how much it sets up on its own and changing the ink takes around 10 seconds. Compare this to my old Epson which very nearly took a few of my fingers during cartridge changing :blink:
