ID-10-T Computer Problems

Here is a free tip that will prevent the IT people in your office from raining abuse down upon your head:
If you are using Windows, the proverb "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again" does not apply to sending print jobs to your printer. You can send three print commands or a million; if it won't print the first job, it ain't gonna print the rest.
(And if the problem is something simple, such as you forgot to load a ream of paper into the printer, when you do, all of those jobs are going to print out.)

Oh, if you want "simple", go do what the NYPD still does: Buy a typewriter and carbon paper.

That is all.

    Reminds me of this old exchange:

    "Back up your computer"

    "I can't, it's up against the wall already"
