After a few weeks away for finals and vacation, coming back was easier than expected. The major task at hand: installing new printers. The school is getting rid of (I'm not sure how since they cannot be sold) color HP printers due to the steep price of the ink refills. On Wednesday, I installed four printers in different classrooms, each requiring about 20 minutes of setup time. Truthfully, the most difficult part was lifting the older HP printers, which were probably twice my weight and rather awkward to carry. Three more on Friday (today) - I had some trouble fixing one parallel cable and the internet was down for about 30 minutes, but all else was fine. Hopefully once the printers are all set-up and networked correctly, we can start working/meeting with teachers again to think up more tech projects for the kids.
