Yeah, I'm not Gen Z and I've always found office printers unnecessarily complicated. Like, I've barely learned how to use a fax machine, do you have to make it even more confusing?
Printers feel like they're still trying to use metaphors and analogies to pre-printer technology, which very few people even remember anymore. It'd be like if we still used the same training they used on the first cars comparing them to horse and buggy setups today. No one would get it.
