One of two things: 1. Their houses are VERY close together, and their rooms are sharing a common wall (not likely), and/or 2. That Bluetooth they have has an incredible range, more than any other Bluetooth devices in existence (it is SHORT-range radio communication; it is not 802.11n (aka, “WiFi”), which would have been a more accurate situation for this strip).
So, no, this would never happen. :-\
Or, maybe Opal has no idea what the H#LL she’s yapping about…
Most people think their printers are off when in reality, they are just sleeping. It’s not possible, of course, because Opal would have to know their password.
She must live near us. We used to have phantom things print everyday at the same time. It was just a line of gobbledygook. We keep the drawer open now and clear the printer memory before we print anything.

Can one REALLY connect to someone else’s printer via Bluetooth?
sirbadger over 5 years ago
Do they leave their printer on all the time? I can go a month without printing so I usually leave it off.

I think that they will know who printed it because of the stuff Grandma prints.

This looks so much better in full color than the black and white version I read in this morning’s newspaper.

It always surprises me when I see open wifi near us. How can people not understand they have to wifi protect it, and the dangers are real :/
