Ok, today was the day that the straw finally broke the camels back! I just ran across an article titled "How to print content in black & white colors on Microsoft Edge". I was expecting to read about some printer or copier that was capable of printing the color white. What I wasted my time on was an article on how to print black from Microsoft Edge.
White is still a color the last time I checked.
In fact the writer of the article stated that in order to print black you need to select the "monochrome" selection from the drop down menu. (Monochrome describes paintings, drawings, design, or photographs in one color or values of one color.) Got that from Wikipedia.
In addition over the years, I've seen many copier proposals that state "black & white" copier! If a copier was able to produce the color of white, the copier would then have a black and a white toner cartridge!
The next time I run across a competitive proposal for a black and white copier, I'm going to tell the prospect this. "Mrs. or Mrs. Prospect, are you aware that XYZ company is proposing a copier that copies in white and black?, Thus where is the cost for the White toner? Did you want a copier aka MFP that copies in white?"
I probably won't pose it that way, but you can bet every dollar that I will expose that sales person for being a dumb ass with their products.
Come on reps, our SMB MFP's can only print one single color, and that's black. In fact our color SMB MFP's can't print white either! Just wanted to let out some steam about how things seem black and white with copiers, when they really aren't.
