I'm sure Helen can agree more so than the rest of us

Yep, it's from TheOatMeal - that place where aalpha for some strange reason can't get, but as i've not posted anything from it for a while, thought it should rear its head again _________________ I should update my sig. What to put here for $CurrentYear ? |

SEEEE!
Said she'd agree they're straight from hell.
For those that need it explaining...
There are printers... and there are *printers*.
Helen works with *printers*. _________________ I should update my sig. What to put here for $CurrentYear ? |

Yes! - hence the emphasis on the word printing
You can't compare a HP Deskjet to a Heidelberg printing press!

A deskjet is from Hell for the listed reasons, a proper printer wouldn't do anything of the sort... ...apart from breakdown in far more expensive ways _________________ I should update my sig. What to put here for $CurrentYear ? |

That is so true. I spent an hour trying to get some maps to print for my dissertation. My parents' computer 'has problems communicating with the printer' despite that the scanner which is combined in the same machine, works perfectly! _________________ ~~~I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minuite of it!~~~
