why do home printers fail to work as intended so often?

968 views

Books, newspapers, and magazines are printed perfectly all the time, why is it such a hassle to get home printers set up? Software is buggy and hard to work with even for professionals, and the hardware is always having issues. Home printers have been around for a long time and in general modern software is quite sophisticated. This seems like something we would have figured out by now. Even in offices, it’s hard for IT to set up printers. Why haven’t we gotten printers that just always work? Is there some fundamental problem we can’t solve?

In addition to other comments: Software plays a big role too. Windows and MacOS have terrible printer implementations. Linux is a pain in the ass to setup, but usually works flawlessly.
