PLEASE NOTE: I updated the dialogue on Page#3. The old dialogue did not seem consistent with the previous page and it seems to read a little better this way.

Not everyone is into digital comics. I totally get it. I'm one who loves the feel of print and I guess a comic is way easier to read one handed (I know what you guys are doing!!).

I've been trying to get my hands on a bizhub. It is a brand of office printer than uses toner tubes rather than cartridges. This means the cost per print goes WAY down allowing me to put a heavier load of toner down to get more bold print.

Well, call it using my charm but, I talked my way into this print shop GIVING me this printer for free! All I had to do was remove it. To my surprise, that big ol' thingy hanging off the side is called a "Finisher" which will fold AND staple prints as they come out. I can even set the first page (cover) to be on a heavier stock.

Well, it wasn't the $1200 unit that I was not expecting, what surprised me even more that it has a Fiery computer attached. If any of you know printing, these are very rare and expensive print processing units that cost in the $5000 range that allows you to accurately control prints and the amount of toner you lay down.

It's a crazy complicated unit which requires a 20A outlet so I'm still going to remember how to wire a plug. I will also need to call in a technician to get it back to 100% but that's definitely worth your generous Patreon monies.

Anyone know how to run a Fiery system, let me know!!
