It use to be that everyone including managers printed to a network printer. I guess the company started making way too much money so decided to waste it on giving all managers their own inkjet printers. Well ok, that's reasonable since they're managers but now it's getting ridiculous. Suddenly managers think their assistants need their own printer too. Not only that but just because someone is assigned a special project they'll be needing their own printer as well. WTF, that person sits 5 feet away from the network printer. We blow through 300-400 dollars worth of ink cartridges a month just because everyone "needs" a local printer. It doesn't help that my boss (IT director) gives in to all their hardware demands either.
