Haven't done much government contracting where documents are required to be submitted on paper in triplicate, eh?

Sometimes I think I've singlehandedly kept one paper mill open with my current project.

E: With the submittals I'm preparing this morning, I expect to print just north of a thousand pages of documentation by the end of the day.

I know a guy who does printer support for biiiig (1 ton, length of the room, $100k+ easily) printers.

He takes stacks of paper. Running a 500 page ream through is a test. If it is something like streaking, which requires hunting down and cleaning up toner leaks and accumulations, he can run many many tests...

Feel not guilt for actual valid use.
