If you too believe printers were sent from Hell (and plenty of mine were obvious lieutenants of Satan) then you’ll enjoy the rest of this strip over at the rather excellent The Oatmeal.

  1. The last one — about the printer absolutely, certainly failing when one is under a crushing deadline — is certainly accurate. The only one that was missed is that a printer’s odds of catastrophic failure rise proportionately with the amount of spare ink cartridges that the the owner has on hand. And isn’t it amazing that no two printers — even (especially) those made by the same manufacturer ever use the same print cartridge?

    I was tempted to include as another general rule the one about the printer never printing envelopes. There is always at least one envelope failure in any project. But I’m sure that must just be my own experience. Every. Single. Doggone. Time.

    Labels – you forgot labels, any attempt to use these will instantly result in a sticky, toner covered ball deep within the guts of the satanic instrument…

    This reminds me of the fax machine from Office Space.
