You know that fax machine in Office Space? That's how I feel about our printer... Tray 2 jams at least once per day. It absolutely refuses to print on legal. And everyone is scared to try getting it to print envelopes. It starts warning you of needing a new toner cartridge 7500 pages before you actually need one. But it doesn't warn you when you've only got like 100 pages left. But here's my real gripe with it. The paper tray takes about 30 pages shy of a ream of paper. Paper comes in 500 sheet reams. It's how paper works. Everyone knows that. Certainly someone who designs printers would know that. So why design a printer that holds 470 sheets? What are you supposed to do with those extra 30 sheets? No matter what you do, you can't fit them in there (see the aforementioned gripe on the jamming). If you leave them out, they inevitably end up in a mess. Throwing them out seems like a waste... It's just a stupid printer. I'd like to take a bat to it.
