My printer's about to get schooled on my mad skills of punching it. |
|
I NEED to print out a couple of pictures for my "yard display"; I mean I NEEEED to! I'm completely excited about setting it up, and now my stupid printer claims there is a "paper jam" or something. I have gone so far as to unplug said printer, turn it upside down, and shake it. I have assured it that there is no paper jam, but it insists otherwise. I'm getting really mad. Sometimes I hate technology. Hate, hate, hate it.

2. No, it's a cheap Lexmark piece of crap. |
|
The power light is blinking at me in a most antagonistic fashion.

3. Lexmarks are good for two years max |
|
then they crap out with paper jam or out of ink error messages. Don't buy a Dell-it's just a Lexmark with a Dell label on it and proprietary cartridges which cost even more than Lexmarks.

12. Lexmarks are the most unreliable peices of shite ever. |
|
Though HP isn't much better, having long squandered their past reputation for quality.

5. Most printers are disposable, much like Bic razors. |
|
They loose money on the printer, but make money on the cartridges.
Chuck it.
