    Yes, I've seen this situation before too.

    "That sounds like too much work. I don't want to make that much effort. Isn't there something easier I could do?"
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

      And if you manage to get the imbecile fired they will go and get a job at the Lexmark call centre. You will never be free of them!
      At least 50% of IT is a solution looking for a problem.

        I have worked with imbeciles before, fortunately I don't have any at my current job. One guy asked me so many questions at one job I wondered, and I think I said this to someone if memory serves, how this idiot made it into work everyday without calling for directions first.
