+Printer not working
+with some printers, especially HP, you may need to re-install the driver

+printer says it has no ink, but it prints;
+you might be getting a warning before it's out. You can just keep printing
+some test prints have bar graphs of the amount.
+
+
+
+I can't print from my mobile device
+	most new wi-fi printers to have "air-print", so iPhones/ apple OS can print if on the same network.
+Also many manufactures have apps that also offer more features, as well as third party ones. Some can even trigger scanners.
+
+Some printers can have an e-mail address, and you can e-mail stuff to it to print. So long as both you and it are connected to the internet, it can print
+
+
+
+printer is slow
+	if over wi-fi, will often be slower. Being closer to the printer will help due to distance. But, come on, use the ethernet!
+
+some things to do are avoid duplexing, lower quality via draft mode. You can (if applicable) change from useing Host based (or PCL), vs. post script, which are often higher quality, but can be slower
+
+
+
+cost per ink/ cost
+	print drafts in Black and White.
+	duplex can half the amount of paper
+	you can use "larger ink", which will cost more, but you buy ink less often. Much less often.
+	You can use third party ink, and it will often work. Some printers will use software to force you to use theirs
+
+
+
+Quality:
+	ink jets are good for consumer. Laser will have higher quality for crisp text.
+
+If quality is degrading, could be settings (things like draft mode), make sure paper type is correct.
+If toner, try shacking it. For inkjets, nozzle cleaning, ect. Also, ink and toner can go bad...
+
+If useing an inkjet to print photos, the right paper is important.
+
+
+
+Paperjams:
+	there can be up to 7 locations. So, it can:
+		be in the back
+		the tray
+		the feed
+		the toner area
+
+		more
+getting to them can be anywhere from easy to practicly disassemble printer

+scanner stops working on multifunction printer:

+identifying printer issues:
+
+easiest way to determine it is if you know the symptoms, as then you can narrow it down.
+	Sometimes an error message will be provided, sometimes it will even be useful
+
+a common symptom is "weird noise"
+	clicking, grinding, whirring; often mechanical things
+
+Pages not fully completly, probally low ink
+if quality keeps randomly changeing, probally a driver or such
+
+if you know what your looking at, even if you don't fully understand how to fix it, if you know more, it will help others troubleshoot...

+weak signals hinder connectivity
+physical obstructions can case issues
+also needs to be on the right wi-fi. If disconnected, re-type it
+if blutooth, make sure it's paired.
+try disconnecting and re-connecting. Or, just cycle it
+
+if local, check cable, check it's plugged in, check other ports, clean plugs...
+
+you can try windows troubleshooter, but it's kinda not useful...
+
+check that it's detected as a printer... is it is, you can try forgetting and re-connecting.

+Paper jams; the soloution is simple, unjam it.
+The execution, not so much. It can be in the;
+Input Tray
+Output Tray
+and between 0 to 5 internal locations
+	and they vary from "move one thing" to "basically disassemble it"
+also check for compatibility of the paper, both material (cardstock? photo paper? wrong size?), and other stuff.
+
+Don't yank the paper out, can cause damage. Pull it gently, and some printers have a mechanisim to manually move it.
+cleaning it also helps.

+for ink, you can check it, use compatible cartridges. Replacing cartriges is simple
