>>In real world, I've seen such reports. The longer it is, the more meaningless it becomes, and its results are less usable. One such report was about 200kg of paper. We actually printed only one third of it and then decided to wait until they noticed that two thirds were missing. They never did. Actually, their staff took only... about a quarter of what we printed, and never took the rest.

>600 pages is only 3kg taking standard 80g/m² or 1 1/5 package. Will be very American coffee :)

1) it was A3
2) 600 pages is what Martina had. This was thousands of pages. I think we use eight boxes of paper until we ran out of patience. The line printer at 1200 lpi, with character band (if you remember those) is very noisy. And it took so long that we couldn't stay out of that room all the time, so at times someone had to endure the noise of two printers hitting it in parallel
3) the stacks which remained were about a meter high, IIRC. Two or two and a half of them.
4) coffee was what we called turkish until recently (now called domaća, i.e. domestic), which is just a spoonful of finely ground coffee in a deciliter of just-stopped-boiling water.

Completely useless. Just finding what you need in there was nearly impossible.
