and because i’m a lazy ass i didn’t read the specs but just read the search engine result.

I also assumed that because 6 years ago i bought a $50 hp envy and it had wifi, this much expensive one is also going to have it

Result: that $250 printer doesn’t actually have wifi

    Open up the world of wifi…

    I would also have assumed this printer had wifi, but I also would have clicked the link to be sure before spending $250

      There’s lots of reasons that that phrase could be in the document:

      “Open up the world of Wifi by purchasing our optional Wifi Adapter (not found in base model)”

      “Open up the world of WiFi with our new wireless printers (coming soon)”

      Op’s lazy approach of doing a search and not even bothering to read the documents that he found is the core of the approach. The “algorithm” didn’t let him down. It found the most relevant document for his search.
