    Looking for best rules to follow

    I'm sorry maybe I haven't enough explained what I'm looking for. The purpose is : the customer won't have any problem during the one year warranty. For me repairing may include prev. maintenance in order to be sure of the printer. It's what I do when I'm repairing computers. A sort of renew...

    80GSM Paper from two different brands have different drying time

    Just a simple remark, as you don't know the chemical composition of each paper you can't compare them. 80g means nothing except the weight. Are the papers all of the same kind ? Which grade is it, are they new or partly recycled sheets, what is the composition of the paper pulp, what about the...
