Why is it, that in the 21st century, printers never do what you tell

copies, they refuse to cancel a job you've sent, they try to use colour
ink for a black and white image and take 5 times longer, they can't feed
a piece of paper without jamming it, the nozzles clog up every five
minutes, the ink cartridges are stupidly small, and they **** about for
ten minutes doing god knows what, spinning the roller and moving the
cartridge back and forth for no reason before they get to work!

You bought a Canon printer right?Â* [g]

No, I avoid them almost as much as HP.Â* It's an Epson.
Well my Canon does pretty much the same thing.
Turn it on and print and it takes 3 minutes to print page 1. Page 2 is
seconds, etc.
Not sure about the black and white and the use of color inks.
Pretty sure my driver, or the user interface, remembers settings. I do
know the one I'm interested in, duplex, is usually always set.

I get the XL tanks and they seem to have a good amount of ink. But
they're inkjets, and consumer products, they aren't meant for high
production.
