the sound of my old printer (epson
stylus 600) when i switch it on. it is broken and it makes strange and
amazing sounds, trying to clean the printhead and making other unknown
operations...
the low reverberation is produced by the printer plastic box.
listen, download, cut.

I couldn't listen to all of it! I felt like I was waiting for a print of something. Very frustrating...

This thing rocks my socks off. Completely. Gotta be one of my most favorite sounds. I used to have a printer that did the same thing! (wipes away tear) Brings back so many memories... nearly kicked the freaking thing across the room... uhm... [comment removed] (no incriminating evidence)

Hysterical! I have an Epson Stylus Color 760, and I recognize the family voice traits.
