This tells me that WD40 apart from being an intoxicatingly manly perfume, is flammable. I suggest that the static ball of fluff which is any print device with paper crud, chad, and other ephemeral bits of detritus (including probably half a tonne of skin flakes) is not the best place to spray WD40. Do it outside. real programmers don't let other programmers smoke around printing devices.= .. -G On Thu, Aug 9, 2018 at 3:55 PM, Jim Geist wrote: > You can supposedly revive dried out ribbons by soaking them in WD40.
