    Need help writing a scifi novel

    I like the bomb idea, some kids need a bomb putting under them to wake them up and actually start learning something! Human evolution seems to have removed part of the brain that controls learning, probably due to all the junk food in the diet!

    Need help writing a scifi novel

    But then again, anyone even partly Human is always open to exploitation, someone purporting to be a 'friend' asking for your details. Perhaps this character should have a self destruct option. ;)

    Is inkjet printer less polluted?

    I can see the headline in the paper now, 'he took his own life by connecting a hose to the printer'. Never heard so much rubbish in all my life!

    Is there a way to tell ink percentage coverage?

    Exactly, the indicated ink levels shown are only 'approximate' and not what may actually be left in the cartridge, when a printer informs you that your ink level in any particular cartridge is low or 'needs replacing' take notice and change it. Most printers now use two black ink cartridges, a...

    Is there a way to tell ink percentage coverage?

    The ink status of your printer will be shown in the printer status pane, usually when printing it will show ink levels in the box that comes up or you can open the 'my printer' icon on your start screen and with the printer turned on see it's status. The 5% figure given is the amount of ink...

    Is inkjet printer less polluted?

    I think that the pollutants you breath in from the City will kill you much sooner than your printer!

    Build it with Windows 7 or 8 and then do the free update to 10 perhaps?

    Understanding My Wireless Laser Printer

    Usually look on the back to one side. I recently bought a new all-in-one and chose one with cable connection socket, 10 others I looked at were wireless only, even ones that have a cable connection come without a cable, they're no longer supplied with the printer.

    Understanding My Wireless Laser Printer

    I know it's very frustrating when you go through the installation procedure and do everything 'by the book' and things don't work as expected or as they should, the majority of printers now being produced don't have a cable connection, they only operate wirelessly, which is not a good move.

    Understanding My Wireless Laser Printer

    Then your best solution will now, if the installation disc you've acquired doesn't solve anything, will be to contact Brother customer support by telephone and ask them what the problem may be and if there is a solution to it. The printer being now discontinued may mean that Brother no longer...

    Understanding My Wireless Laser Printer

    That will most likely mean that the printer is not compatible to your PC, or more precisely, the software that came with the printer is not compatible. Try by uninstalling the printer and reinstall the printer software disk to see if that cures the problem, it may not have installed correctly in...

    "Amazon fire 7 inch tablet" not loud enough when using headphones.(too quiet at full volume)

    If you're worried about paying to download Apps to boost the volume of the tablet, as long as the tablet has the facility to connect to the internet, which I assume it does, then as said, the volume App will be free, the App itself will have nothing to do with Amazon, the tablet carries the...

    Can you not download an App that has a greater volume range and control? Search the App store and see what's available.

    Canon Imageclass laser printer connection issue

    What I would do is open your printer/scanner from 'hardware and devices' in 'control panel' and change the settings to tell the printer to ask what function you want to use then you can choose 'scan' from the drop down box, the machine is probably set to 'print' as default. You may have to do it...
