<Jay> oi vey.
<Jay> goddamn printer better start goddamn printing the goddamn right way or I'm kicking it clear to kinkos.
<Jay> mm
<Jay> drop kicking a scanner/fax/copier...
<Jay> ouch mah toes r gone
<Jay> ****
<Jay> again with the failure
<Jay> I wonder if it lacks blue ink.
<Jay> It's the only logical explanation.
<Jay> hmm
<Jay> an experiment...
* Jay prints an all-blue version, just to test his genius theory
<Jay> hmm
<Jay> well, these are illuminating results.
<Jay> I informed my printer to print out a solid blue version of the document.
<Jay> Well, not solid blue, it turns out.
<Jay> the tinting of the colors meant there was a degree of magenta, in order to balance the blue, I guess.
<Jay> The result is, essentially, solid magenta.
<Jay> Boy George, I've got it.
* Jay is, mysteriously, out of blue ink.
<Jay> exclusively blue ink.
<Jay> well
<Jay> Cyan ink, I suppose.
<Jay> Now instructing printer to print an all-cyan version.
<Jay> Let's see what happens
<Jay> oof
<Jay> that sucks.
<Jay> My other printer prints on the white parts in addition to the rest of it
<Jay> makes it a muddy light brown-ish yellow.
<Jay> Why?
<Jay> dunno.
<Jay> It's jarring and disgusting.
<Jay> okay, a strokes in, and it seems there's still some magenta lurking in here somewhere.
* Jay shall seek it out and destroy it, leaving only the cyan and then...
<Jay> :)
<Jay> wow
<Jay> latest result = essentially invisible.
<Jay> alright
<Jay> I have removed the yellow and magenta channels from the document
<Jay> and am now exclusively cyan and black.
<Jay> ...
<Jay> out of paper.


I dunno if it's because it's pushing 7AM and I haven't slept or what, but I laughed at that last bit.
Anyways. Think I'm gonna switch over to brownish-yellow printer. At least it has some cyan left.

-I think.

...you could have summarized that conversation, given that there was no one else involved in it.
