A Bug's Life

Or to be more precise, "22. Get the flipping printer flipping well working."

I have made progress - giant displacement activity first, including dusting it, dusting the window and blinds, moving the giant printer trolley out and vacuuming under it, including finding a couple of old moth cases in the carpet.

I've got it to warm up and print test pages, which it seems quite happy with after a couple of crunchings and bugshaw learning how to sort printer jams. And that's as far as I've ever got with it since I stopped living with major_clanger, it used to be a super networked thing that you could use to print from any machine in the house (even the hoover!) but now I plug leads between it, my PC and the router in various combinations, but the best I've managed has been plain text bbutt veerryy sttuutterrryy.

Ah well, a new year, a fresh attack. Perhaps I will prevail this time!
