How About You?

After looking at the Rainy Days weather radar app, Jan and I were able to spend about 30 minutes with our coffee out of the patio between rain showers. Being very overcast and cooler than normal, it was really nice.

I had to order a new printer for today and this is the one I chose.

HP 6978 Printer

HP OfficeJet Pro 6978 All-in-One Wireless Printer

It was only $119 and even better it uses three different separate color cartridges, magenta, cyan, and yellow, not just one color cartridge with all three colors in it. This means that if you print with a lot of red, you don’t have to replace the entire color cartridge, just that one color.

But the reason I had to get a new printer is not that it wasn’t printing, but that it wasn’t scanning right. No matter whether I used the flatbed or the document feeder, it cut off the top and left side of the scan.

Yeah, I might have been able to tear into it and figure out what was wrong, but it was 3-1/2 years old and the cartridges were getting scarce and more expensive.

So I ordered it on Amazon today and it will be here tomorrow. Neat!

I mentioned the other day that Microsoft is releasing Windows 11 sometime in the fall. Well, the word now is October. And it will be a free update.

But the next question is, will your PC be capable of running Win11?

Well, to check if your PC can run Windows 11, download the “PC Health Check” app and then install it. Then when you run it, just click on the blue ‘Check Now’  and in a few seconds, you’re know.

In my case, it looks like I’m good to go.

How about you?
