When we got back, she wanted to print some out as refrigerator magnets. She's done that before, and likes doing her own photos as magnets rather than buying souvenir magnets at a gift shop.
She picked up some magnet sheets
That meant that we couldn't use the laser printer. So, time to break out the inkjet printer, right?
Well, we haven't used it in over two years. So, that meant buying new ink cartridges
And hooking it up to the network, which means pulling out the print server connector. Which I really didn't want to do.
Then, it hit me: I've seen printers less than 70 dollars. Including one from Lexmark
So, rather than spend nearly $70 on ink, I spent around $40 on a photo-quality wireless printer with ink.
I'm thinking that when the ink runs out, I'll trash the printer and buy a new one.
I can hardly wait for cars to get so cheap that when they run out of gas, I can do the same thing.
