(This is a rant about my printer, and is in no way a reflection on PC!)

That said ....

I was looking at my recent fair contacts and saw one from a guy who a) likes stoneware and b) is at least a little interested in the opportunity!

So I tried to call him, got no answer ... and wanted to print the recruiting promo flyer to have it at hand when I call him later this weekend.

The flyer got stuck in my Epson printer! It is a scanner too ... and the paper is WAYYYY down there. There is no way I can get that paper out of there ... it ripped when I tried!

I have no idea how to take this stupid scanner apart, so no printer until Epson opens tomorrow!

Sheesh! Can't a girl get a break???? I've only had the printer for a month!

(Not to mention ... this would be such an awesome opportunity for this guy ... he can get $110 worth of stoneware for $155 ... better than the half kit promo!)
 
my stupid printer that likes to eat paper has a trap door in the back so you can get the rest out. Try that. If it doesn't work go have a glass of wine and a cookie. That will fix it :)
Your right, way better deal!
good luck

I disconnected the printer and did not see a trap door. Maybe my roomate will have some insight.

I am supposed to print stuff for a future host whose stuff FedEx is bringing tomorrow ...

Maybe I should go bake some brownies ...
 

Frequently Asked Questions

Why won't my printer recognize the flyer file?

There could be several reasons your printer isn't recognizing the flyer file. First, ensure that the file format is compatible with your printer. Most printers support PDF or JPEG formats, so check if the flyer is saved in one of these formats. Additionally, ensure that your printer drivers are up to date and that the printer is properly connected to your computer or network.

What should I do if the printer is out of ink?

If your printer is out of ink, it won't be able to print the flyer. Check the ink levels and replace any empty cartridges. It's also a good idea to run a test print to ensure that the printer is functioning correctly after replacing the ink.

Why is my printer printing blank pages?

Blank pages can result from several issues, including low ink levels, clogged print heads, or incorrect printer settings. First, check the ink levels and replace cartridges if necessary. If the ink levels are fine, try cleaning the print heads through your printer's maintenance settings. Also, ensure that the correct paper type is selected in the printer settings.

What if my printer is connected but still won't print?

If your printer is connected but not printing, try restarting both your printer and computer. Sometimes, a simple reboot can resolve connectivity issues. Additionally, check the printer queue to see if there are any stuck print jobs that need to be cleared. If the problem persists, consider reinstalling the printer drivers.

Is there a way to print the flyer from a mobile device?

Yes, you can print the flyer from a mobile device if your printer supports mobile printing. Ensure that your printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your mobile device. You can typically use apps like Apple AirPrint or Google Cloud Print, depending on your printer's compatibility. Open the flyer on your mobile device and select the print option to send it to your printer.
