But if you wanted to use Wordpress.com you just need to set up an account with a different email address.

That's what I thought. And did. And yet, it only allows me to access both of them with one username and one password.

You'll need to install Wordpress twice in two different directories and two different databases.

Shit. I was worried about it. Any way to import everything into installment #2? I really worked hard on blog #2 (which is Hollaback Israel) yesterday, and I'd hate do everything from scratch today.

Are you using Wordpress.com to host your blog(s), or are you self-hosting via the Wordpress.org download package?

I think Wordpress hosts my blogs. I can't even remember if I downloaded anything when I started my academic blog (probably just the start up package), but I'm not paying for any hosting service.

If this doesn't look familiar, then you are probably using Wordpress.com to host and my comment above does not apply.

Nope, did it the other way. But thank you.

Any other ideas?

I recall NoiseDesign mentioning he just buys a new printer, it's easier, and about the same price.

I actually haven't done that in quite a long while. I am all inkjet at this point though. Epson is one of the worst offenders in ink unfortunately. Their printers will often shut down completely when they detect low ink in one cartridge, even if there is still some remaining in the cartridge and then force you to replace it.

I ended up buying three HP inkjets (one for the office, one for the house, and a large format) that are from their business line. They are very fast printers, and they all use the same ink system. The ink tanks are not part of the print head, and therefore aren't quite as expensive and they hold a lot more ink. I can also get the cartridges at Costco in three packs with the XL capacity as a good cost savings. Finally the HP will let me continue to print until the cartridge is totally drained and pages are coming out blank.

Yeah, I upgraded to the same level ND`s talking about and it`s worthwhile. I still have the massive large format laser for the newsletters and the inkjet is for color and multifunction. Duplexers are the best thing that ever happened to small home office equipment. Between those two pro level pieces of machinery, my life is so much easier than it used to be. Ink and toner is still expensive, but at least I can buy what I need and not just replace all the colors and printheads because I keep running out of cyan. It costs, but I know I`m using what I pay for so I`m okay with it.

The HP I have in the office has dual paper trays and a duplex on it, it is so nice. The one in the house has a duplexer, but not dual paper trays.

Yeah, both those features are nice. If only I had a third tray on my laser that was a working envelope feeder I`d never wrangle with the printers ever. But I`ve never gotten envelope feeding correct, on any of my major machines. It works on the HP, so I`m not complaining. Only printer problem I have at the moment is something in my security settings, firewall, something, that`s blocking communication. It`s just with my equipment, SO is fine, webscanning is fine, so it`s just me somewhere. If I were able to get scanning to the computer working right, I`d be a happy bird. Even Vonage and faxing is working at this point.

Woot! Amazon to allow lending of Kindle e-books.
