What a good start to the New Year!

1. Scanner power supply packed up.
2. Tried new power supply now scanner will not work right.
3. Printer has decided to print pale even after cleaning heads and ink is shown as ½ full, also display has disappeared.
4. Manfrotto Art055 tripod has broken its locking handle for the main stem and may be obsolete.

They say things happen in three’s I hope that is it this year.

Yes I think the printer is 7 years old HP PhotoSmart 1000, scanners 4 years and the tripod may be 18 years old.
It is funny how I have been looking at a 13”X 19” HP or Epson printer and the Epson V700 scanner before they broke.

Now there's your answer,your current equipment obviously knows that you're thinking of getting rid of them
