@quinn Out of all the pieces of hardware to keep, this person kept their printer???Those things are constantly trying to call home and rewire themselves to keep you from using unapproved ink. That's the official story of what they're doing anyway--who even knows if that's true. They're like the last thing I'd keep around. You can go to the library and use a printer. You probably have to anyway because you're out of ink. You just bought ink yesterday but you're out.WTF with the printer?

@crazyeddie you can get dumb printers, i have one. but they're not as fancy and don't have colors. but honestly i have a business in france, that printer gets a workout.

@crazyeddie honestly i don't think you can have a small business without a printer at this point. perhaps the future will be better.
