Oh my. I can clearly see here the pattern of the "friendly supporter contributes with a much-needed printer in perfect condition" that came straight from their police colleagues... They know printers are devices with so much complex hardware that usually peopke don't bother inspecting it, but anarchjist spaces ideally should inspecting their devices thoroughly. Beyond the e-snicht issue there's also the bnenefits of understanding how the stuff around works, so DIY principles and all that.
