In my last post I shared how I changed the READY message on an HP network printer. In this post I wanted to share Twenty of my favorite Outrageous Printer Status messages. I came across these statements as I was researching my last post. Without further Adieu, here they are:
- HELP I AM TRAPPED IN A PRINTER FACTORY
- SELF DESTRUCT ACTIVATED
- INSERT COIN
- CLEAR TOE JAM
- FEED ME A KITTY
- PC LOAD LETTER
- REPLACE WHITE TONER
- PAPER UPSIDE DOWN
- PAPER INSIDE OUT
- ORIGAMI MODE
- OUT OF CHEESE
- FEED ME
- FIX SPELLING ERRORS
- LEFT MARGIN CALL
- INSERT COIN
- MY INK WELL ITCHES
- OUT OF VOWELS
- RADIATION LEAK
- TRACTOR BEAM MISALIGNED
- COOKIE DETECTED IN TRAY2
I’m sure there are dozens more. If you know a good one and it’s not on the list, please leave it in the comments section below.
