Over time, it might be easier and more cost effective to go to CVS or other printer places. Unless you are going to continue to use it often, the ink might be dried out most of the times you want to use it. Sonja On Sat, Nov 4, 2023 at 5:38 PM sarah cannon holden < sarahcannonhol...@gmail.com>

My husband worked at MGH!  He too gave up riding the train into work!  It was unreliable and it went so infrequently and also expensive!  We gave up the idea of living with one car even though we live about a mile from the train station!  When we have friends coming in to visit from the city, we
