Customer: Hi good afternoon, this is Martha, I can't print. Every time I try it says 'Can't find printer'. I've even lifted the printer and placed it in front of the monitor, but the computer still says it can't find it...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Customer: I have problems printing in red...

Helpdesk: Do you have a colour printer?

Helpdesk: Are you sure it's plugged into the computer?

Customer: No. I can't get behind the computer.

Helpdesk: Pick up your keyboard and walk 10 feet away.

Customer: OK

Helpdesk: Did the keyboard come with you?

Customer: Yes

Helpdesk: That means the keyboard is not plugged in. Is there another keyboard?

Customer: Yes, there's another one here. Ah...that one does work!

Helpdesk: Your password is the small letter 'a' as in apple, a capital letter 'V' as in Victor, the number '7.'

Helpdesk: OK, and what seems to be the problem?
