    No I meant. If you worked in an office. Printers and servers dont just get replaced. They get repaired with parts.

    I suppose if your backward enough to be working in a dot-matrix office then your probably right.

      Meh, if a printer like that gets broken round here, we get some contract helpdesk lackey / hardware chimp to sort it out. We can't care less how, problems such as a broken printers are beneath us lofty consultants!!!

        PMSL !

        No concept of the real business world then, where there are countless Goods Out Departments using multi-part paper on Dot Matrix printer for shipping notes.
        Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

            Surely no-one fixes printers any more. When they break, just buy a new one. You can probably buy a new one for less than the cost of a new cartridge these days. I'd start getting retrained if I were you.

            Don’t even bother to change cartridges as they are more expensive than the printers

                Depends what sort of printer you have. I have a sh1tty brother Laser that would go in the bin if it broke. I have a stock pile of 3 toner carts that I paid £25 each for from staples from the sale bin.

                I'd pay a dirty toner-covered monkey to fix it if the printer was worth more than 500 quid.
