A couple of weeks ago my office printer stopped printing multi-page documents. Actually, it still printed them, but it printed all of the pages on one page. This led to an agonizing week or so of being forced to print out one page at a time, or of sending documents to our long-suffering department secretary for her to print, while I waited for a new printer to get ordered and shipped. Last Friday my new printer arrived and I spent a good two hours OF MY RESEARCH DAY getting it unpacked and set up.
Here it is in all of its shininess:
Isn't this the most freaking awesome thing you've ever seen? I mean, for a woman who has been printing in black and white, with cheap bubble-jet printers. This one not only prints in color, it also COPIES. AND SCANS.
I feel like doing the happy dance around my office every time I use it.
So I know it's a bit of a tank -- it's huge and it takes up tons of space on my already cluttered desk. And I am a bit worried about the amount of dust I found underneath my old printer when I moved it. Will that much dust pile up again on my new printer? And if so, will it ruin my new shiny printer? Perhaps I should purchase a dust cover for it? Or maybe a little umbrella thingy?
If only I had Dobby. Where are the house elves when you need them?

Funny you mention dobby. That's a long-running joke with Kyle and me. Everytime we come home from grocery shopping and we have a load of stuff in the car we don't want to heave in ourselves, we say, "where's dobby? Where's that damn house elf when you need him?" Or when we are too lazy to do something, we wonder why we don't have a Kreacher running around here...
