Yeah, what a nice time, Sex and drugs and alcohol Smile | :)

What I remember it was more
1.) Alcohol
2.) Then maybe some drugs. "lol*, that time it was usually smoking some grass
3.) The hope to have some sex

At least at that time not every target girl was online with the mobile

I hate inkjets...

OriginalGriff1-Nov-19 6:12

...especially "all-in-one" inkjets.

I had to print a form, sign it, and return a photo of the signed doc yesterday. So, I turned on my Samsung colour laser, printed a file to it, grabbed the paper, ran a pen over it, took a pic, emailed it off - 2 minutes or less.

Today ... I need to provide a scan of my driving licence for verification purposes on a new account I'm opening - to accept non-UK currency payments without the cost of my bank or Paypal, both of which want 3% of the transfer sum, plus their own inflated exchange rate.
So ... I get out the inkjet all-in-one. It won't scan because it doesn't like the magenta cartridge.
Replace cartridge (fortunately, I have a spare set).
It won't scan because it's "charging".
Now it won't scan because it doesn't like the cyan cartridge. Sigh | :sigh:

Replace cartridge.
It won't scan because it's "charging".
Oh, you still won't scan? Ah. Yellow this time ...
Oh, and the black? Elephant.

Twenty minutes just to get a non-ink related function out of a multifunctional printer ... if I'd wanted to actually print, it would have taken another half an hour to "get all the jets in".

I hate inkjets.

I haven't used an Inkjet printer in so long, can't even remember the last time come to think of it.
Even though they almost give them to you; the cartridges are expensive, the printers are marginally junk and the firmware/software sucks and if you don't use them often the damn things don't work right.

I've had a mono laser forever and it just works. Want to go to color someday!

recently got a mono laser.
considered color but probably scanning docs/forms more required than printing.
so all I nreally need.

really need for color? [very rare] but something to do while visiting clients.
(yes I do ask permission, they're always fine as long as ask first and it's not an encylopedia)

I wanted colour because I print my own Christmas cards - that way I can have personalised ones for close friends, and a damn sight less Robins and glitter ...
If I want a Robin on a card, I'll use one Dij brought in and disemboweled! Laugh | :laugh:

Neither does mine - but the requests were along the lines of "a chicken, you moron - or a whole cow would be nice".

I don't want to eat mice, voles, shrews, rats, sparrows, crows, moles, robins, sticks, leaves, or even the heron he keeps eyeing up speculatively.

But you have to admit it's handy to have an "all-in-one" ALL THE TIMES you suddenly have to send a fax??? Laugh | :laugh:

they still use fax here in Asia,
... no choice because they keep eating the pigeons when you send documents that way.

I think I paid $70 (Canadian) for my Canon scanner (USB, single function) years ago, which must be the same if not even cheaper nowadays. Nothing fancy, but it'll handle up to 8.5" x 14" or so, so plenty good for most basic needs. The exact model is a Canon CanoScan LiDE 100.

Bonus (and this is sometimes important): I never had to install any of the bundled crapware to get it going, and every Windows OS I've used it with so far (7 x64 and above) has recognized it out of the box with no fussing with drivers.
