My old person trait is that when I purchase a printer, I should be able to use whatever is the cheapest compatible ink without the printer treating me like I'm smuggling unicorn blood out of Narnia

I’ve bought 2 separate cannon i80s (because I have a ton of leftover ink I got for very cheap) and its the best printer I’ve ever used

It is often reasonable to handwrite everything to avoid printers

I once heard that the Russian security bureau was so paranoid about bugged computers, that they still fill forms with mechanical typewriters just in case.
