PSA to dipshits who think they're clever

Specifically about laser printer toner cartridges

So you know the tricks huh, printer says OUTTA TONER LOL so you pull out the cartridge and give it a shake, maybe you put electrical tape over the little window so it can't see that you're lying, you put it back and get into the service menu and tell the printer another little lie and bam, just like that you keep on printing. You're gonna use ALL that toner, 'cause you're a clever boy! Not like those silly sausages who chuck the cartridge away when there's still a quarter left!

See that rubber roller on the bottom of the cartridge? That's holding the toner in. It wears out. It gets thin. Your precious saved toner FALLS OUT inside the printer. You told the printer it was a brand new cartridge. The printer keeps printing. The toner gets EVERYWHERE. By the time you notice, you've gotta take the whole damn thing apart, and it's a horrible messy job that'll take all damn day.

Now who's the silly sausage.

Yours sincerely, a silly sausage
