Who the gently caress wakes up in the morning going "Boy I love printers so much! I can't wait to use my printer to print something!" This person does not exist. Look at these loving pieces of poo poo: Printers are the deer of electronic devices: utterly useless and miserable and they smell bad and make godawful noises and do nothing beneficial Proposal: I want to print black text on a sheet of paper for a report Reality: A piece of paper falls through the internet and into Parisian printers. Taking a LED from the nearby wall, it spies rows upon rows of black ink cartridges. Grabbing the nearest one, it shakes it madly by the shoulders, shouting "THE COLOR INK CARTRIDGE IS LOW " And that's even assuming the fucker will even take the printer signal and start rolling paper through it. Only for it to chug along taking 40 seconds and the print quality looks like somebody tried erasing crayons or it just spits out a completely blank page regardless. Or say it's not connected to the internet despite a brand new ethernet cable and wireless signal option. Or thinking the paper is empty when there are at least 60 sheets in the tray. Or it's permanently stuck "configuring" and making noises like a typewriter violently masturbating in garbage bin while having a temper tantrum over no longer being able to eat pizza rolls for every meal. What the gently caress is the point of printers in 2020?

My favorite* printer problem is how printers are also extremely picky bastards in that there are some printer models that will only take one, and very strictly one and only one, model or designation of ink cartridges. Or that trying to buy third party cartridges causes the loving thing to cry and hiss about NON-AUTHENTIC CARTRIDGES and refuses to print because of "errors" (read: punishing people wanting to find a cheaper alternative to the ink market perpetually in a chokehold)

What do you call a 1998 college freshman trying to print porn to no avail? No boner.
