printer solutions

 Yesterday, when I was printing out some pages, the ominous "low ink" message showed up on my computer screen, so I checked and I'm evidently very low on black ink.  So today, while I was out and about, I stopped at Office Depot, where I've always bought my ink, scanned the shelf for the number I needed, couldn't find it, asked a clerk for help and was told that 'they' don't make that cartridge anymore.  It wasn't on his inventory list. Now I'll admit my printer isn't new, it's at least nine years old, but it still prints very nicely in black and color and I don't really want to buy a new one.  

So, because I have learned something about on-line shopping (I'm old but not that old) and because I questioned the clerk's information, I went on line this evening, googled Epson ink cartridges (it's an Epson printer) and, surprise, surprise, there was the exact cartridge I needed (they do still make them) so I ordered two.  I love a happy ending.
