hard copy documentation of their products? So I got this new printer and
there was no place to plug in the power and USB cords on the product.
Luckily, my significant other showed me that I had laid the printer down on
the table incorrectly and I was trying to find receptacles on the bottom of
the printer rather than the back. But then the damn thing wouldn't work
when he and I finally set it down properly. There was a piece of orange
plastic deep inside the cavity where the drum resides and this needed to be
removed.
The user manual said nothing about any of this. It was written in Vietnam,
probably by a former Viet Cong for all I know.

Probably because people don't read it :-( When there IS a little
brochure it's always of the 'quick start' variety, with the real manual
(such as it is) on either a CD or the manufacturer's website.

Definitely should have been an instruction about that.

Congratulations, Bev. You've just responded to a spammer and troll who is
also one of resident psychopaths and gutter turds that resides in the
alt.social-security-disability cesspool.

Because its so trivial to get it in hard copy form if you are that much of a dinosaur.
I prefer electronic manuals because they are searchable and much cheaper too.

And the electronic manual would have told you where to plug them in.
And even someone as stupid as you should have realised
that there has to be somewhere to plug power in and you
should have looked that surface you couldnt currently see etc.

Thanks for that completely superfluous proof that you actually are that stupid.

Almost all printers have something like that and
usually have a quickstart guide included too.
Even if someone has returned that printer and had keep the quick
start guide, you could have downloaded that if you actually had a clue.

Bet the quick start guide does.
Which printer is it exactly ?

Yeah, yeah, its all a plot shaft every american they can.
Very easy when they are as stupid as you.
