Chapter: Comics
I guess it’s a good thing that I don’t own a printer that runs on human blood. I would probably run out of blood before I got my garage sale flyers to print correctly. I guess I don’t use the printer often enough. I have to spend a half hour calibrating and cleaning every time I want to print a single page. I think it would be faster if I made everything like a ransom note and cut the letters out of the junk mail I get every day.
Today’s Maximumble is enormous.

Gah, that would be so creepy.
The printers we have are all from the same place – The Box Place (which is really a recycling center. We just call it that because we get boxes from it). None of them are colour printers, but they all work fine with a few modifications. Of course, there’s the offset of having them put in a few extra random numbers in the page here and there.
Biff is giving blood. The printer has a face. Where can he give the green from?

Biff’s blood is magenta?
Hang on..I was under the impression that Biff didn’t have blood.
Hey, I go to give blood this Friday. I will totally ask the Red Cross if they would consider Biff’s revision to the process.
I do NOT want to know where he’s going to get the black pigment…
I’ve got an old old old HP Laser III. That thing is ‘carved from the solid’ – never fails, just keeps on crankin’ out the pages. Toner is getting hard to come by, though.
@Micah; The cat-bag comic showed that he’s got blood. Just not easy to get to it, is all…
Actually, from the expression on the printer’s “face”, I thought that The Biffster was donating blood to a sick friend.
I’d say it was an HP, but it would explode rather than use something as cheap as human blood..
Cyan?
Thinking about the price of printer ink, I’d seriously consider this…
@Wizard: Blood from the proverbial stone, eh?

At least running it on human blood would be way cheaper than the official cartridges!
@Maskman
I’d be more worried about the yellow ink…
@Cari; Also scary. I don’t want to see how he taps into his bile duct.
<.<
>_< Blood for ink? I couldn't do that. I'm anemic. I also would need a baby needle for it if I wasn't anemic (I'm not brave enough for the adult needles.) I am a wimp when it comes to giving blood for necessary things.
@MaskedMan: Bile wasn’t exactly the yellow I was thinking of…
Laser printers ftw!
None of the issues you described 🙂
Huh. The sad part? If you look it up, ink IS more expensive than blood. Ink is also more expensive than vodka and crude oil per ounce. o-O Bastards are screwing us…
Oh, how I wish I could replace the red ink with my blood! I have some kind of anti-anemia thing going on where I don’t seem to suffer any side effects from blood loss no matter how much it is, in fact it seems I need to lose some blood periodically and if I don’t bleed by accidental causes in time I’ll start getting nosebleeds to dump the excess blood.
Get yourself some pet leaches, maybe?
