Printers used to be so simple. Connected to the PC and they worked. Now you need wifi/bluetooth, endless software upgrades, incredibly expensive cartridges. Also have to wait an age before they actually think about possibly, maybe, printing sometime.
One thing never changes, paper jams. No one has solved that one .

Re: Moans and Pet Hates
Or research 3rd party cartridge costs best options canon and epson for cheaper carts and buy a network printer that connects to your router or as Snoopz says buy laser

Re: Moans and Pet Hates
Misplaced guilt
My Dad wanted me to go round and help him on Tuesday with his FTTP install but the other day his wife said some really horrid things to me saying my mental health was an excuse anyway I might have posted cuz I been a mess since so I said I can not put myself through that sort of thing again and he blamed her dementia that he has not mentioned to me since he said he suspected it. Had I known I may have expected it and it done less damage but she really hurt me. But now I feel guilty for not going round

No chance of getting it all during the pandemic, and after it all settled down, the prices were around 40% higher and still haven't dropped. I fully expect the war in the Middle East to jack the prices even higher.

I'm involved with a men's charity, wood prices have sky rocketed in recent times.
Luckily Travis Perkins give us discounts
