Work printer here prints gibberish for a line or two on 4 pages every single day.
A different building on site I snuck around out of boredom on a night shift with a different printer does the same, but it isn’t corrupted. Misconfigured* SMTP server auto generated messages. The engineers just throw all the paper in the shredder.
I told IT about it a couple times. Nobody cares lol.
I’m pretty sure every printer on the LAN wastes 4 sheets of paper every day for years.
It’s likely a driver issue.
We’ll never know~
For the last several months, I would have to reboot my printers every time I wanted to use one. Then it magically started working properly again last week. No idea what caused it.
Printers are a blight on the world
But 3d printers can just work out of the box and work in one whole extra dimension.
It’s easier to make a 3d printer hold a pen and write a document out than risk attempting to use an inkjet printer that has been sat idle for more than 10 minutes.
This is weirdly very true. I literally have a plotter setup on my Ender 3 because I find the result more interesting than an inkjet.
(Serious) Can we use an old 3D printer to “plot” a black and white document? I would really love open source to drop its mighty power on printers.
