I love modern printers.
We have a super fancy one in work that requires one to log in (or fob in with an NFC-style tag), to enable access to their own virtual print queue or printer services.
Weirdly, if it doesn't shut down correctly (software failure, power cut, flicked at the wall switch etc), it reboots but with some quirks like not enabling the 10 second auto logout.
It's satisfying as fuck walking up to a printer that's still signed in, scrawling a comedy dick in red pen on a bit of A4 paper, and using the cloud scan function to scan it and have it directly emailed to the user as a PDF.
I'm pretty sure there's some serious security issues there but it's funnier to hear someone's "new email" tone, and their eyes widen when they've got an email attachment from themselves making a suggestion that they crudely be elsewhere, or who see a masterpiece drawing of a hairy rocket with a helium leak manifesting itself from the very top.

referees are reviewing the play
"On further review . . . the joke is acceptable . . . . first down"

Just dump some holy water on it

might as well do that every time before you need to print sometimes fast, maybe it'll mask the smell of fear that makes them refuse to work

My Brother printer started working perfectly for the first time in the 10 years I've owned it after I installed Linux.
