ReplyDeleteWhat about the Printer. If you need to type something and give copies of it to people from anything like school/college assignments to an author who's needing multiple copies of their new book etc. you need a printer to print out your work.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly notice them when they run out of ink. It is well documented that printer ink is more expensive than vintage champagne and the cartridges contain around a fifth of the ink that they did fifteen years ago.
