ENG 2100: Writing 1 with Jay Thompson

Ibrahim Rauf, Week 8, Blog Post

In my house there is a large printer. This black colored printer is sitting on the chaster inside the room I share with two of my siblings. The printer is manufactured by HP and was very tech filled for when we bought it. The printer has a screen and can take pictures of whatever paper you want to copy instead of scanning it. We have been using this printer for the past 8 years or so. The colored ink for this printer is very specific, making it expensive. On this printer sits a lot of papers that are already printed out, from documents to homework assignments.

The printer has been used for a very long time. It has been a helpful item during my middle and high school years for both my siblings and I. The printers screen works in a very funky way. You have to press the screen at a harder level than what you usually press your phone at, but everything works functionally. The printer also prints at a very fast pace. Usually printers take a minute to print items, but this printer instantly gives you whatever you wanted to print. But there is a downside that can get very annoying at times. Since the printer is wireless, sometimes it disconnects with the WiFi and becomes very difficult to reconnect. But overall, the printer we have is one of the most useful things in the house.

One thing that surprised be about writing this blog post is how analytical you can get about such simple items around you, its really cool. I believe the hardest part was starting off with what exactly to say about the printer, but once I figured that out, there was an easy flow of what to say.
