I take the late3st XXX printer "FM" which just tells me - with an
effort of approx. 5 MB - to "plug in the USB connector and click on
'My Computer' and then on..." etc.

NO iformation about what the dang thing does, NO least hint to its
functioning, no NOTHING if the dang thing doesn't work well (because
the black ink has dried on the shelf while the beast waited to be sold
to an idiot to buy the scrap.)

No, no, and *NO*.
I just compared the doc of a 10-year old Microtek scanner to what they
same people tell/sell to-day: painful misery.
(What _has_ increased to an enormous volume is the legalese of
disclaimers, (R), (TM), (c) rubbish and sheer irresponsability for
product quality, though.)
