No extra garbage printed that was not intended to be printed. And I use (or re use) all of my scrap paper and any other useful paper I can find -- can't do that with a printer. Computers -- for the paperless office. Amazing how with the proliferation of PCs paper use has skyrocketed exponentially.Bill Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649212489891769390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5771393570564645054.post-32083740587752936612012-09-12T09:15:17.062-07:002012-09-12T09:15:17.062-07:00This is great, thanks for posting.This is great, thanks for posting.Ton S. https://www.blogger.com/profile/10691201724230891974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5771393570564645054.post-15659363353317878902012-09-12T07:14:59.426-07:002012-09-12T07:14:59.426-07:00Neat.

No more keeping up with the technology race. Manual typewriters — those click-clacking standards of old-time newsrooms and secretary pools — are back in vogue, and enthusiasts are popping up all over."<br /><br />I'm glad that they recognize manual typewriters as environmentally friendly. Paper has a bad reputation in some quarters, but there is so much scrap paper to be had that it's a perfect example of reuse (and much of that scrap paper is created by computers and printers).Richard Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16232053429935587826noreply@blogger.com
