I have had a lot of trouble with printers my whole life.
In the last more than four years, I’ve been through various weird makes plus models of all variety of printers plus hated every single one of them.
I don’t buy cheap models. I actually take the time to research plus consult with the salespeople at the store. I buy solely name brands plus still they don’t meet my needs. I am not ecstatic with how initially strenuous it is to simply set up the printer. The equipment is big, bulky plus heavy. It always takes up way too much room on the desk plus the cord is constantly a problem. Modern printers are also universally supposed to be entirely wireless. They are capable of connecting to my poor little laptop plus printing with a tap of a button. This never works. I constantly end up with a huge cord stretched between the printer plus my PC. I then hit print eighteen times plus literally beg the thing to make a single copy. If I’m entirely lucky, it finally starts to print plus won’t ever be able to stop. I then frantically detach all the paper. Since ink costs an arm and a leg plus rarely lasts longer than a week, I only print when honestly vital, but at the same time, when I install a new ink cartridge, the printer needs to go through a whole dedicated alignment process that wastes both paper plus ink. If it runs out of the colored ink, it won’t print anything at all. It doesn’t matter that I only want to print in black plus colorless, the printer refuses to listen. Paper jams are entirely too frequent plus I get super frustrated when the printer creates a horrendous ink streak across the paperwork.
