How long do you expect a multi-function printer to last?

Right. I hope it does last for you, Jena. I understand that many people don't feel they need printers at all these days, at least not for documents. I still use mine quite a lot and was lost when I didn't have one for a few days.

You're the second person I know who bought a printer in the Tesco sale. Do hope it lasts well for you. I guess it's the luck of the draw. Mostly, of course, if they're going to go wrong, they'll wait till one days after the warranty runs out.

That's a definite law. One second out of warranty and all hell lets loose. Of course the dealer/manufacturer won't help either! A couple of years ago I went with my father to buy him a digital camera. The same as mine. I got £80 off as part of a special promotion. We went to the same company but different store. The promotion was still on according to the signs. The deal was a cashback offer. We were in the process of looking over the camera when I said "this ones on offer isn't it?" They salesman said yes and on we went. As we were purchasing the manager came over and said that the offer had closed the previous day and he couldn't offer us the cashback. My Dad said not to worry. I was a little blunter! We wrote to the company who declined to give us the money back. I know it's a silly thing, but it has quite changed my view of that shop!
