    I apologize if I touch your feelings.



    OOuu kay, next time I will try to be more precise. "Always" meant, "always for me", "always for printer models". I agree that word "always" is sometimes misleading, but remember, this is just discussion web, engineers of all the world trying to give their best knowledge, so it will never be 100% objective, most of times subjective point of view of author. These pages are merely a blend of free thoughts, not official vendor support. If somebody here suggests a possible cause of problem and subsequent solution (worked in author's case), your junior tech will try that mentioned procedure as one of attempts to solve the problem. If that would not work, he will then move to another workaround and so on. Classical procedures, then you try some more solutions, eliminating those nonsense ones at first but when you run out of solutions, you will start to test those non-likely to be solutions

    And for Debs, thank you again for your support! I hope you will success with some of these helps, please let us know

    I think it's good to support newcomers, encourage them for posting and discussing and not to insult them (because somebody non-intentionally touched your feeling due to different language, after all this is international website, people from all around the world meet here. Engineer from U.S. can have same problems as guy in old continent ) So we should find the way how to communicate with each other, not looking for differences (even in language). Especially for people hanging here for years, defending their territory as something belonging only to them (no offense, please I beg you, do not react to this comment)

            This bruhaha seemed to be because slim objected to someone using "always" and "never" when troubleshooting a copier. For the record, I've been down this road with someone else using those words. I agree with slim. Very rarely is that the case and I hate those words. lol

              I've heard those two words should be officially stricken from the English language.

              I totally agree!

                Do you remember someone saying to NEVER use universal print drivers?

                  English not being my mother language I was caught few times in this trap. Not the best feeling in the world when you know you meant something completely different and failed to describe well enough. It always take me a-l-o-t of time to post a single reply because of spell check, idioms check, google check etc.

                          I didn't say I was perfect. Close, but not perfect.

                              She quoted me because she was replying to a post from me. By 'not point any finger' she most likely meant that portions of her reply was meant for a large portion of the membership.

                                the accusation was made in earlier posts about you being rude.
