Arthur has struggled, recently, with issues with his old printer that he has set up down in the kitchen. Several times I tried to figure it out, but at least once he reset things such that whatever I had done failed again.
Rather than make a battle over “printer configuration” I decided to proactively buy my own printer. It came in the mail a few days ago, and today, Arthur wanted to print something. So I set the new printer up, upstairs in the main room, but made sure it worked from his computer too. It took a bit of finagling to get the printer to connect to the wifi network – the instructions that came with the printer were quite opaque and atrocious. But once that was accomplished, it worked quite beautifully. Both Arthur and I successfully printed things to the new printer from our respective computers.
So now we can print this blog post, for example.
