just had a randomer shouting me over which never happans in this rotten clique town. English accent, I would of just generally ignored but as it was a foreinger I approached carrying my nazi helmet as I was heading home from showing my uncle who hates all things german etc, I thought he was going to start shouting abuse for having the helmet, and he was asking me whos that french car was (mine) and he said his wife had the same and written it off and he said he needs rid of these brand new brake shoes set so he gave me them for free etc, and I said "your skin will turn green with karma"
how awesome

How come Canon don't supply usb cables with printers anymore?  Also, why do HP supply usb cables with wireless printers?

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Because you need it to run the printer set-up in XP And the printer has to be operable if the wireless doesn't work. _________________Jim

Clearly some mistake at the factory - the HP printer I unboxed last night is USB only, but doesn't include a cable.

We have over 9000 USB leads in the garage from various things that didn't need them. Anyone want a job-lot ? _________________jonbwfc's law: "In any forum thread someone will, no matter what the subject, mention Firefly." When you're feeling too silly for x404, youRwired.net

HP usb printers never come with a cable, wireless ones need one so you can configure the device to connect to the network

I would imagine that they assume that most people have a cable already. I have dozens. Also USB cables are pretty cheap. _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted.
