   Please forgive the obvious question. Why/how isn't this doable   
   electronically? I assume computing devices are not used  in your work place?   
      
   I understand my last schooling was at university and it was in the tech   
   field, so I may have been more fortunate. But that was about 15 years   
   ago and I didn't print (much, if at all) then either. Last 10 years...   
   not even one page printed. I guess I'm lucky to be able to do absolutely   
   everything electronically.
