[sdw2003] A 5 minute test about local printers vs. networked printers

[James Eitzen]

Had the same issue at my last job.

All the data entry and account processors had to have a local printer.  
Not small cheap ones ether.

Could have had a pool of three or four networked printers instead.

People are lazy. Don't wanna walk 15 feet to the printer.
