Pickle Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Does anyone has a good way to destroy a photocopier in a very discreet way, so our boss has to replace it? I have spent 2 hours on my hands and knees now trying to pull tiny pieces of paper from every nook and cranny of the photocopier when it goes wrong. The techie who comes out to fix it,is as useful as a chocolate teapot. *mad* Any suggestions would be gratefully taken into consideration and used for devious purposes!

Pickle Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share Posted July 20, 2006 I have just had a thought....do you think I could borrow a small child to ram a big handful of nappy contents into the inside of the machine?

Alex Birtwisle Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 pop some chewing gum or bluetak somewhere in the moving parts and try and burn it out. Failing that, sit on it and run of a couple of hundred bum prints and pop them in the pigeon holes of the staff S713UMY 1.8K Viper Blue and Spandex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickle Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share Posted July 20, 2006 Would collaspe under my weight which would solve the photocopier problem but I think I would be fishing out fragments of glass from my botty for weeks afterwards. ☹️ Pickle I deal with spanners on a day to day basis.

Rachael Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Accidentally spill a can of coke into it? That stuff is so disgusting I am sure it could destroy anything, let alone a measly photocopier!

thinfourth Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 If you can lay your hands on a megger then megger it huge electrical death Or take wires out of plug cut off the naked wire bit and then put the insulated wire back in the plug.

chrisb Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Open as many of the little doors as possible, and throw in a handfull of sand 🤔 Take 2 sheets of your average A4, and randomly staple them. Place one in the paper tray, and then feed the other into the document feeder. Press go and listen to the beautifull noise as the staples are eaten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Normans_Ghost Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Have you got a pc in the business? If so, be a star, and explain if you buy a scanner you can ditch the copier. Will save on the rental/maintenance agreement and with a reasonable printer you'll never have paper jams again.

Pickle Posted July 21, 2006 Author Share Posted July 21, 2006 We have scanners, but they are not very good at printing multiple mail merges....

simonbell Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 We too have a bitch of a photocopier...........it`s just as well we are architects so the most dangerous thing we have to attack it with is a scale ruler............we did contemplate rolling it down the stairs though.......... Anywya after much protestation we got a new one.......well not quite, our other four offices got new ones and we got the best of the 4 old ones. We`ve just had Mr Canon out to check it over..........apparently they have a kind of mileometer.......no. of copies its done..........the engineer said he`d never seen one with such high mileage Non copier friendly acteataes at the ready Simon Bell - Caterham 7 Duratec R I`ve seen the future.....and it`s powered by duratec Check out the website here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
