Grrr! We hates printers, LJ logins, too!

I just found that my new Lexmark printer won't feed the thicker Avery 8871 card stock. In the Also Sucking arena, neither will my laser. And yet again in the Also Sucking arena, LJ is trying to prevent me from logging in again!

*sigh* I'm going to bed.

Well, the Lexmark won't even feed the 5371 stock, I've only put 75 pages through it since I got it, so I'll be talking to Walmart about them taking it back. Unfortunately I don't know if they have anything better.

Gah, bummer. Yeah, I'm not sure if those multifunction printers ever have anything resembling a straight-through paper path, and any printer that turns the paper 180 degrees (or even 90 degrees) is pretty much guaranteed not to be able to handle cardstock of any kind. :(

My dad has a multi, it's an Epson 6400(?). It actually feeds from the back, I'd guess it's maybe 30-40 degrees above flat. But I have to go with what's available to me up here, I really don't want to buy something like a printer mail-order/online.

At least I got the photos scanned that I needed to scan.
