  • Fucking printers, how do they know when you need to print something urgently so they can pick that exact moment to throw a shit fit and stop working.

    Have a courier booked to collect a parcel from 8am onwards tomorrow, I have 6 printable postage labels left, I know the correct orientation and the exact size/dimensions the printable area needs to be set to for a perfect fit.

    First print... printer decides to notify me after printing that the yellow ink is out, everything completely faded.

    replace yellow ink and run a cleaning program to clear out the print heads.

    second print... completely faded, error message "ink absorber near full"

    google message, printer basically is end of lifing itself.

    third print... run another clean on the black ink only, print in B&W... completely faded

    message now states ink absorber now full, refuses to operate and cannot clear error message, reboot printer.

    printer bricks itself completely, no longer powers on at all.

    FFFFFFFFFFFFFuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

    am a gnats hair from recreating that scene from office space.
