Fait !! On se voit au SSTIC !

I just read something on printer tech and how that's the most unreliable computer tech ever made, mostly because it's made of moving parts and in a predatory consumer business. Last week, my gf thanked me again for gifting her this used inkjet printer that I recovered from my late parents' house. It seems that this particular Epson inkjet model wasn't crap after all.

This confused me for a while because my dad was notoriously making very poor choices in inkjet printers. He had a good experience with an HP Deskjet 510 in 1990 and since then believed HP was a reputable brand. He even brought a brand new (unopened box) HP printer to our family vacation place, in case the previous HP printer ceased working.
I trashed both printers in the same afternoon when I couldn't make them print anything from my mac. btw throwing a printer on the floor is a very great stress relief exercise, just check that it's not left plugged to your computer when you do it.

So I dug a little bit and now remember how this Epson printer ended on his desk. In around 2018, he asked me to research and buy a printer that wouldn't fail after one year. I guess I did a good job.
