Our appalling internet signal fluctuates like mad which means the printer frequently forgets what it is printing and spews out pages of rubbish instead.

It is always saying it is out of this that or the other colour ink, and I have to call for the husband to get it going. No one else uses it so it can't be out of ink !!

I have to confess that I have just disposed of an ancient printer from the loft (I bought a wireless one about three or four years ago to replace it) but I checked out of interest and ink cartridges are still available. I think the trick is to buy one that uses mainstream cartridges.Graham Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196744947133121475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132582821010486689.post-83336672628234511732016-11-17T21:33:50.609+00:002016-11-17T21:33:50.609+00:00That is so annoying - it happened to us AND those ...That is so annoying - it happened to us AND those irritating help lines... they just make you want to throw the phone on the floor and stomp on it.

So much of our time, money and resources are wasted just so someone can make a few quid selling us the new model - which will be frustrating to get the hang of and in most cases won't do a better job.Patsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12263765378083045973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132582821010486689.post-63925824013021085512016-11-17T18:28:37.007+00:002016-11-17T18:28:37.007+00:00Thank you, Gail, but alas, too late.
