let me complain first, then i'll thank u
Category: randomo bitching
ok i have to complain about my printer for a second...

Yes i found the HP photosmart d7160 at target for half price last year. But wow the pictures were beautiful! And what is even better, it has separate ink cartridges so if you run out of one color, you don't have to replace all of it, just what you need!

and then.

so lauren needs to print out a lot of papers for school. She prints them out in black ink only. BLACK INK ONLY! so why oh WHY does it continuously tell me that we need cyan or magenta or whatever the hell color it thinks is neccesary to print BLACK INK ONLY documents??? How the hell does 'BLACK INK ONLY' mean "black and cyan and magenta and fucking blue?" seriously? what is wrong with this picture?

okay yes i can see if she is printing documents that appear to be just black text, that for a full and rich text that just pops out of the page at you, a bit of yellow might make that text just kinda pop out at you, right? fuck you!

now the fucked up part is that if you get too low it will tell you that it can't print anymore whatsoever. how the hell are you going to tell me that i cannot print my BLACK INK ONLY documents when i run out of cyan?

On another note... last night was awesome guys! I had such a great time, and finally got to meet (e:lilho), (e:joshua) and (e:jason), and also (e:enknot) from something other than across the room! I do have to apologize that planet earth ate my brain for such a long period of time. you guys need to start charging admission for them shits!

Thanks for the great adventure once again (e:peeps)!

i have just set the default printer options for it to black and white only. lauren says that she already does this when she prints, so this is probably one of those printers that uses magenta and cyan. i do recall those being the colors that we lose the most of. grrr!
paul - 02/17/08 14:47
A lot of printer drivers will let you select black and white text printing from he printing options when you print. Maybe there are even advances settings where you can choose this. Anyhow, with lots of printers, if you print in black and white text mode instead of color, it will really only use black ink. Otherwise, it will unfortunately print in full color which uses magenta and cyan to make black. Not sure if your printer has these options.

doesn't work at all if any of the cartridges are missing, but thanks (e:metalpeter).
metalpeter - 02/17/08 12:50
I think I have the answer to your printer question. I have heard that when you print something in black and white you should take out the color cartarages. What happens is that printers combine the colors to make black instead of just using the black. I can't varify this and don't know where I heard it.

In terms of the party I wish my two things didn't conflict but they did. I'm glad you meet (e:lilho) she is very interesting, hot, and can get pretty crazzy sometimes, glad you had fun and made it to another (e:strip) event. I have heard that she gets wilder then I have seen (I mean that in a completely good way).

poor house
well today i found out that my father and brother lost their jobs on valentines day.

apparently the company that they work for just closed the doors on them. They didn't even know until my sister in law (who works for the bank) was informed that she should not cash checks from that particular company. They were bouncing. A few inquiries later and... oh by the way, you don't have a job anymore.

Now my brother will probably find a job. But my father is about to turn 60 in a few months. Who is interested in hiring a 60 year old mechanic? not many people. its so sad i don't know what he is going to do.

It scares me to think about how horrid this economy is getting. I mean out of my nuclear family (parents, 3 brothers and myself) there are only two of us working now. And my brother is pretty sure that his plant is getting shut down soon as well.

How bad is this going to get?

I think that they made all the border crossings to Canada more difficult because they knew that half the population would be interested in ditching this stupid country, like I am right now.

pointless
here i am once again... playing on the computer when i should seriously be getting ready for work.

we got our refund check which meant we bought some things we normally wouldn't at wegmans last evening. even went for rice milk and TWO different kinds of protein/whole foods shakes. wowsers!

typing 'wowsers' just then reminded me of my old housemate steven and it made me miss him.

i had several things i was going to post about, but of course as soon as i go to do so, my mind goes a bit fuzzy.

well at any rate... i'm excited for tonight, (e:peeps) and pizza. social interaction is always a dandy experience. see ya tonight!

my posts may be lame, but so is your face! ohhhhh!

james: i'll see if they have my variety there.. thanks!

You buy protein at wegs? I go to AllStarHealth.com and get the 5lb of Optimum Nutrition Natural for $40. Which is ridiculously cheap. It is also a really good protein. It is recommended by most of the personal trainers and meat heads I know.
