So- I've been sending out resumes like crazy lately- printing them all off at home. Well.. yesterday I went to print them off and my printer wouldn't work! I was freaking out, I had ink in it, it was connected right- everything! I didn't quite understand why it wasn't working. It kept coming up as an error on my computer!
So... tonight I looked at it, and it was turned off the whole time
Apparently the light on my on/off switch stays on whether its on or off.


Wow, I feel like a complete idiot

dont worry it happens to the best of us
mine i have to unplug now because the kitties discovered how to hit print and to turn it on and off on there own
and not to long ago my brother needed to print something up for the nighbor and i told him which plug it was to the printer because i have a normal printer and a printer for pictures and of course he plugs in the wrong one and keeps yelling down to me that it wasnt working

You're allowed those!

I do stuff like that all the time. Last week I spent 10 minutes before class started trying to figure out why my wireless connection on my laptop wasn't working.
I finally realised the wireless switch on the laptop was turned off.

I just felt like a complete idiot, but this isn't the first time I've done something like this.... I just don't always admit to it!

I too have done this MANY times!

The Cat Brats like to sit on my printer and push the copy button to make blank pages shoot out and they've been known to turn it off completely

That might be my problem- Harley thinks he's still a kitten and cat sit on it, UH... no Harley, a 20lb kitty cannot sit on a tiny printer!
