I have just replaced my increasingly unreliable 13-year-old printer with a brand-new Epson inkjet. It prints, it scans, it copies, it makes a mean strawberry daiquiri*.
Setup was fairly smooth, but when I installed the printer drivers, I got a little popup that said something like, "Print queue was not added. Please consult the User's guide for instructions on adding a print queue manually." So, I found the online User's guide, found its nice search box, and put in "add print queue."
No hits.
Okay. I tried just searching for "queue". No hits.
Scanned through the table of contents looking for anything that resembles adding a print queue. No hits.
Memo to all those software developers out there: if you're going to put text in the user interface of your software telling people to look in the manual for something, please tell the person who writes your manual that you've done that.
* Okay, it doesn't make strawberry daiquiris, but in this weather, it totally should.
