prolong printer life!

October 19, 2008 By

Here is a simple way to at least make your printers last longer.

  • Clean the printer head before you even begin to use it. The software that comes with your printer should help you get this done without a hitch.
  • To avoid clogged print heads where you can see the ink coming out, carry out a monthly cleaning.
  • Don’t use third party inks like those of different brands from your printer and refills. Although it’s more affordable, these tend to clog the print head. Plus, these also void the printer warranty, and you’ll probably end up spending more to get your printers fixed.

  • Create your own private blackout. There’s something cinematically sexy and romantic about blackout, but you don’t have to wait for the electric to put you in the dark. Just forbid all use of electricity and close all the curtains. Light a few scented candles then play shadow games on each other’s bodies.
  • Meet for a midnight snack. Nibble on whatever sweet thing is on hand. Hook up a makeshift tent with a rope and a blanket, then roast a couple of marshmallows in the toaster oven and sandwich them with chocolate graham crackers. Don’t worry about making a sticky mess – you can lick the crumbs off each other later.
  • Make tube time more special. If you’re both addicted to the office, make a date of it: munch on a bowl of cubicle-worthy microwave popcorn. Sopranos fan? Pour each other a glass of Italian wine.

Feed each other. Cup up an assortment of sexy juicy fruits: mangoes, papaya, raspberries and strawberries. Don’t refrigerate, as fruit at room temperature has the most pungent aroma and release the most flavour when placed on the tongue. Well, that’s all for now I have to checked this Oliefyr I found in the web.
