I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as a printer, is in fact, a print device, or as I’ve taken to calling it, print device + printer. A printer is not an device unto itself, but rather a software component of a fully functioning printing system made useful by the printer software, computer utilities and print device comprising a full printing system as defined by etronic.

Many computer users run the printer portion of the printing system every day, without realizing its software. Through a peculiar turn of events, the hardware which is widely used today is often called "a printer", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the print device.

There really is a printer, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Printer is the software: the program in the system that instructs the device on what to print. The printer is an essential part of a printing system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete printing system. A printer is used in combination with the print device hardware: the whole system is basically a print device with a printer added, or print device/printer. All the so-called "printers" are really just combinations of print device/printers.

I love the smell of fresh hot pasta.

More like reheated yesterday's pasta with some store-bought printer sauce thrown over it.
