Bleeping PRINTERS!

I basically spend all day printing, especially lately. We buy generic ink in bulk so we can get it cheap. The last two orders have taken fucking FOREVER (like a month or more) so right now I have no ink. I have ONE printer that both has ink and is working properly. Sort of. Cuz now I’m fucking trying to print and it either decides to clog or eats the paper wrong and gets and error and I have to turn the fucking piece of shit off and wait five minutes for it to get it’s crap-eating act together!

Listen you cocksucking cuntmunch! Just fucking print! I want to fucking go home! Stop fucking around with me and PRINT! I will find a hammer and rearrange you with it! PRINT!!!

I have a feeling I’ll be drinking tonight.

What do you mean? Printers are great! Why I’ll %!PS-Adobe-3.0

To get the full impact of this post, imagine every fifth character starting a new page.

Michael Bolton, is that you?

I think ths thread should be a sticky… Printers *always * suck.

Except when they work properly. Wait… then they suck in paper, so… yeah!

I finally got my boss’s business cards printed so I gave up and went home. And drank (a little bit. I have class in a while so…)

I hate only having one working printer.

PC LOAD LETTER

PC Load Letter? What the fuck does THAT mean??

WHY does it say “paper jam” when there IS no paper jam?!

Our printer/scanner/fax at work just flaked out today, for about the…oh, hell, who’s keeping count of how many times this thing has gone down anyway. I was trying to send a ONE PAGE FAX to a number that we use all the time, and the damn thing decided to commence “shutting down…”, an error mode out of which I could not get it to go. Poor delicate baby, did momma stress you’uns out too much with the Big Bad Fax?

Piece of crap.

This.

How much you wan’t to bet you’ll get carded? :wink:

I agree about the printers by the way. I haven’t seen one I couldn’t turn into a heap of broken junk in about 2 minutes. I’ve thought about doing just that on many occasions. Turds almost every one of them.

Oh, and while we’re bitching about printers, can we just skip the mandatory alignment page, please? It ALWAYS aligns properly (as long as you’re not a complete idiot and know how to simply pop a cartridge into the damn thing) each time a new ink cartridge is installed, wasting a page’s worth of expensive ink!

At least your printer works. I’m on my third computer in 10 years, and I’ve never had a printer work longer than a month. I’ve been trying to get my Lexmark to work with Vista for over a year now, and can’t seem to do it. Talk about frustration. Grrrr.

No we can’t! You’ll have to fill out a E7714 form and fax it to the Imperial Printer Headquarters. Expect a reply within 30 days and don’t bug them about it again. Oh, and hold your breath. :smiley:

If you do “spend all day” printing, then you should blame your boss for buying an inkjet printer, they just aren’t designed for that kind of heavy-duty printing. In the long run, lasers are much cheaper also for large print jobs, due to the cost of supplies.

Of course, if by “ink”, you meant “toner” (as in you refill your own laser cartriges), then please ignore my comments.

Silver Tyger Girl, the sooner you accept the following, the less frustrated you’ll be:

This applies to all computer-related equipment, as well. It really is all part of a plot.

Trust the Computer!

Unfortunately, we can’t print our labels on laserjets. The printers actually work well, when we have ink. Oddly enough, it was printing on cardstock I was having the biggest problem with. And my boss doesn’t get the idea of ‘cheaper in the long run’. But that’s a different rant.
