I will never, and I mean NEVER, troubleshoot a printer as a favor. 😂

From this to this overnight. The moment I actually need to print something important, the black dies. Frick's sake.

It must be the pigment ink. Is it worth buying normal dye ink for the black refill ink?

Near collision because an ATC controller was on the phone, AND the supervisor was mucking around with a printer.

"A private jet came within 100 feet of colliding with a Southwest Airlines plane on a San Diego runway in August 2023 after air traffic controllers in the tower became distracted, according to a final report issued Tuesday Sep. 30 by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB)."

"...The supervisor, meanwhile, was distracted by a malfunctioning printer used by controllers to receive information. Instead of switching to a backup printer, the supervisor attempted to troubleshoot the issue during active landing operations..."

🚫🔒 Oh, the digital age: where the most thrilling adventure is getting rejected by a printer from the 80s. Don't forget to call your "admin" — because who else knows the sacred rites to unlock ancient font mysteries? 😂📠

🖨️ If your office printer could talk, it would beg for 3 things:

🧽 A monthly clean
📄 Quality paper & legit ink
🔧 A checkup—not just when it starts screaming

🖨️✨ So you bought a Prusa 3D printer and suddenly think you're an engineer? 🤔 Welcome to the world of fine-tuning endless parameters just to watch your plastic spaghetti ooze awkwardly. 🎉 Remember, nothing says "I have no life" more than measuring belt tension for the perfect cube. 🤷‍♂️

The image shows a wooden table with a document laid out on it. The document appears to be an "F&I Summary" and is printed on two pages. Most of the content on the pages is obscured by gray rectangles, possibly for privacy reasons. At the top right corner of each page, it says "Date: Thu Feb 16, 2023" and "Report Period: 02/16/23". At the bottom of each page, it says "Powered by StoneEagle". In the background, part of a computer mouse and a coaster with a drink are visible on the table. The lower part of the image shows a person's legs and feet, wearing khaki pants and dark shoes, standing in front of the table.

I'm gonna make millions with one simple idea.

A network printer, that just fucking works every time.

I'm already patenting, you can't steal it.

Me to my printer: "How about I just be me and you be you?"

My printer: "Absolutely not."

Just spent half an hour fighting with my basically-brand-new photo printer, thinking it was broken because it wouldn’t feed the 13x19” paper that it DEFINITELY supports.

…turns out I dropped some tiny plastic disc things in the paper feeder when re-doing the studio.

Close up your printer when not using it. Seems like an extra step, but it’s worth it.

@nixCraft That definitely is a myth. I avoid trying to print things wherever possible.

Me: Hey #printer! Print this in gray scale pleas.
Printer: mimimi I'm out of paper.
Me: here have some paper.
Me: Hey #printer! Print this in gray scale pleas.
Printer: mimimi I'm out of yellow.
Me: come on, it's christmas. And I want grey scale anyway.
Printer: mimimi I'm out of yellow.
Me: well fuck you then. I hope you get coal in your stocking! Stupid machine!
