why are printers so hated? it's simple:

computers are good at computering. they are not good at the real world.

the biggest problems in computers, the ones that have had to change the most over the time they've existed, are the parts that deal with the real world. The keyboard, the mouse, the screen. every computer needs these, but they involve interacting with the real world. that's a problem. that's why they get replaced so much.

now, printers: printers have some of the most complex real-world interaction. they need to deposit ink on paper in 2 dimensions, and that results in at least three ways it can go on right from the start. (this is why 3D printers are just 2D printers that can go wrong in another whole dimension)

scanners fall into many of the same problems printers have, but fewer people have scanners, and they're not as cost-optimized. But they are nearly as annoying.

This is also why you can make a printer better by cutting down on the number of moving elements: laser printers are better than inkjets, because they only need to move in one dimension, and their ink is a powder, not a liquid. and the best-behaved printers of all are thermal printers: no ink and the head doesn't move. That's why every receipt printer is a thermal printer, because they need that shit to work all the time so they can sell shit. And thermal is the most reliable way to do that.

But yeah, cost-optimization is also a big part of why printers are such finicky unreliable bastards: you don't want to pay much for them. Who is excited for all the printing they're gonna be doing? basically nobody. But people get forced to have a printer because they gotta print something, for school or work or the government or whatever. So they want the cheapest thing that'll work. They're not shopping on features and functionality and design, they want something that costs barely anything, and can fucking PRINT. anything else is an optional bonus.

And here's the thing: there's a fundamental limit of how much you can optimize an inkjet printer, and we got near to it in like the late 90s. Every printer since then has just been a tad smaller, a tad faster, and added some gimmicks like printing from WIFI or bluetooth instead of needing to plug in a cable.

And that's the worst place to be in, for a computer component. The "I don't care how fancy it is, just give me one that works" zone. This is why you can buy a keyboard for 20$ and a mouse for 10$ and they both work plenty fine for 90% of users. They're objectively shit compared to the ones in the 60-150$ range, but do they work? yep. So that's what people get.

Printers fell into that zone long, long ago, when people stopped getting excited about "desktop publishing". So with printers shoved into the "make them as cheap as possible" zone, they have gotten exponentially shittier. Can you cut costs by 5$ a printer by making them jam more often? good. make them only last a couple years to save a buck or two per unit? absolutely. Can you make the printer cost 10$ less and make that back on the proprietary ink cartridges? oh, they've been doing that since Billy Clinton was in office.

It's the same place floppy disks were in in about 2000. CD-burners were not yet cheap enough, USB flash drives didn't exist yet (but were coming), modems weren't fast enough yet to copy stuff over the internet, superfloppies hadn't taken over like some hoped, and memory cards were too expensive and not everyone had a drive for them. So we still needed floppy disks, but at the same time this was a technology that hadn't changed in nearly 20 years. So people were tired of paying out the nose for them... the only solution? cut corners. I have floppy disks from 1984 that read perfectly, but a shrinkwrapped box of disks from 1999 will have over half the disks failed. They cut corners on the material quality, the QA process, the cleaning cloth inside the disk, everything they could. And the disks were shit as a result.

So, printers are in that particular note of the death-spiral where they've reached the point of "no one likes or cares about this technology, but it's still required so it's gone to shit". That's why they are so annoying, so unreliable, so fucking crap.

So, here's the good news:

You can still buy a better printer, and it will work far better. Laser printers still exist, and LED printers work the same way but even cheaper. They're still more expensive than inkjets (especially if you need color), but if you have to print stuff, they're a godsend. Way more reliable.

This is not a stable equilibrium. Printers cannot limp along in this terrible state forever. You know why I brought up floppy disk there? (besides the fact I'm a giant floppy disk nerd) because floppy disks GOT REPLACED. Have you used one this decade? CD-Rs and USB drives and internet sharing came along and ate the lunch of floppy disks, so much so that it's been over a decade since any more have been made. The same will happen to (inkjet) printers, eventually. This kind of clearly-broken situation cannot hold. It'll push people to go paperless, for companies to build cheaper alternatives to take over from the inkjets, or someone will come up with a new, more reliable printer based on some new technology that's now cheap enough to use in printers. Yeah, it sucks right now, but it can't last.

So, in conclusion: Printers suck, but this is both an innate problem caused by them having to deal with so much fucking Real World, and a local minimum of reliability that we're currently stuck in. Eventually we'll get out of this valley on the graph and printers will bother people a lot less.

Random fun facts about printing of the past and their local minimums:

in the hot metal type era, not only would the whole printing process expose you to lead, the most common method of printing text was the linotype, which could go wrong in a very fun way: if the next for a line wasn't properly justified (filling out the whole row), it could "squirt", and lead would escape through gaps in the type matrix. This would result in molten lead squirting out of the machine, possibly onto the operator. Anecdotally, linotype operators would sometimes recognize each other on the street because of the telltale spots on their forearms where they had white splotches where no hair grew, because they got bad lead burns. This type of printing remained in use until the 80s.

Another fun type of now-retired printers are drum printers, a type of line printer. These work something like a typewriter or dot-matrix printer, except the elements extend across the entire width of the paper. So instead of printing a character at time by smacking it into the paper, the whole line got smacked nearly at once. The problem is that if the paper jammed and the printer continued to try to print, that line of the paper would be repeatedly struck at high speed, creating a lot of heat. This worry created the now-infamous Linux error: "lp0 on fire". This was displayed when the error signals from a parallel printer didn't make sense... and it was a real worry. A high speed printer could definitely set the paper on fire, though this was rare.

So... one thing to be grateful about current shitty inkjet printers: they are very unlikely to burn anything, especially you.

(because before they could do that they'd have to work, at least a little, first, and that's very unlikely)

Receipt Printers: An Indispensable Component of a Point of Sale (POS) System

Receipt printers (for example, Epson TM-T82III Thermal Receipt Printer)play a vital role in completing a transaction in any retail or hospitality business. As the name suggests, these devices are used to print payment receipts for customer transparency and contain purchase-related information like the date and time of purchase, product name, SKU number, price, and other related information. Not only do these payment slips help maintain transparency with the customers but these proof of transactions help customers return/exchange any purchased product hassle-free. Even though e-invoices or digital receipts have gained popularity, there still are customers who prefer physical receipts; hence, most businesses provide both physical receipts and e-invoices these days.

Do people know most paper receipts are harmful to their health?

I'm going to get up on my soapbox for a minute, but do people realize how pretty much everyone is being overloaded with endocrine disruptors like BPA/BPS on a near-daily basis??

I don't think many people understand that ever since most of the world transitioned to thermal paper receipts (cheaper than ink), almost every receipt you handle from the gas station to the grocery store to the Square terminal printer at the local co-op is coated with Bisphenol-A (BPA) or its chemical cousin Bisphenol-S (BPS).

These chemicals have not only been proven to cause reproductive harm to human and animals, they've also been linked to obesity and attention disorders.

Not sure if your receipt is a thermal receipt? If you scratch it with a coin and it turns dark, it's thermal.

BPA/BPS can enter the skin to a depth such that it is no longer removable by washing hands. When taking hold of a receipt consisting of thermal printing paper for five seconds, roughly 1 μg BPA is transferred to the forefinger and the middle finger. If the skin is dry or greasy, it is about ten times more. 

Think of how many receipts you handle every day. It's even worse for cashiers and tellers, who may handle hundreds in a single shift. It is also a class issue, since many people who work retail and food service are lower-income and will suffer worse health consequences over time from the near-constant exposure.

Not only that, receipts printed with thermal ink are NOT recyclable, as they pollute the rest of the paper products with the chemicals.

People don't know this and recycle them anyway, so when you buy that "green" toilet paper that says "100% recycled"? Yup, you are probably wiping your most sensitive areas with those same chemicals (for this reason, I buy bamboo or sugarcane toilet paper as a sustainable alternative to recycled paper).

This page from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has some good links if you want to learn more.

As consumers, we need to demand better from our businesses and from our governments. We need regulation of these chemicals yesterday.

If you are a buyer or decision-maker for a business, the link above also contains a shortlist of receipt paper manufacturers that are phenol-free.

If you work at a register, ask customers if they want a receipt. If they don't and you can end the transaction without printing one, don't print one!

As a consumer, fold receipts with the ink on the inside, since that's where the coating is. Some more good tips here.

And whatever you do, DO NOT RECYCLE THERMAL RECEIPTS

[buwheal]

(Not to spamton) hi buwheal!! I saw you mentioned that Spamton's printer is a receipt printer, which fun fact, use no ink, instead having thermal paper that changes color under heat. What do you think about that?

What i think is that you misunderstood, lol /lh

I ment that as a comparison to convey how its a shitass printer. ^_^ It uses ink in whatever contraption its got going on. It would be pretty neat if it was a receipt printer, but for his sake ill give him a break. I think finding thermal paper in the trash zone would be much harder than just finding nearly empty printer ink cartriges. Ill give him a hard time, but not that hard. Theres a lot of asks to print!!

Bought my partner a thermal printer for Christmas to make stickers and print receipts and whatever; we immediately both thought: gameboy printer.

It looks even a little like a modern version of the gameboy printer. If I knew where mine was I’d pull it out for comparison, but anyway.

I decided the best way to bring this whole thing together was to actually take some pictures with gameboy camera and print them, so that’s what I did.

Emulating gameboy camera on my 3DS was extremely simple, and using some handy homebrew ftp software I could wirelessly transfer files over to my phone where the new printer connects over bluetooth. It’s essentially the gameboy link cable but with extra steps.

So now I have these photos from gameboy camera, all I had to do was pass it to the printer. Let me tell you, the feeling of absolute joy we shared at having printed a picture we took with gameboy camera for the first time in probably 20 years? That was just 👌

Happy fucking holidays, everybody, I needed that dopamine today

the 90s were wild. nintendo was like "you know what kids would love? thermal receipt printers."

and they were right.

Got a new toy (thermal receipt printer) & having a blast playing with my new toy (writing a python program to automatically make shopping lists which print as receipts)

[lmk1999991]

why not buy a thermal receipt printer and create fake receipts to shoplift, if your stopped then you can produce a receipt saying that you were previously in the store and have paid for the items. Works well for stores with self service and that are large with many checkouts

Obviously, this technique is anything but ›immaterial‹. To some degree, it resembles etchings or even tattoo needles poking paint into the skin. The resulting images are unstable and (arguably) far less durable than an Instagram post. Nonetheless (and probably because of this), thermal prints are widely used for documentation purposes: Receipts for your recent purchases are printed on thermal paper. In the 1990s, there was even a Game Boy printer that allowed you to materialize and ›immortalize‹ your gaming adventures in snapshots or print out your favorite Pokemons. The prints were meant to be circulated. They were meant to ›stick‹. They didn’t. And they don’t. Sometimes they fade, sometimes the image darkens with further exposure to heat, obliterating the initial ›weightless photonic inscription‹. Then it’s not a local tan that disappears, but a strong and permanent burn over the entire body. Once again, the photographic image reveals its paradox double intent: the deep need to preserve and the deep need to forget at the same time.

As temperature rises, information is replaced by noise.
