回覆：文具用品我們理解各位為了節省成本，嘗試利用時間回溯，讓使用過的設備恢復成全新品。然而印刷部已發出警告，表示他們的獲利模式靠的就是便宜賣印表機，再高價賣墨水。一旦墨水能靠時間回溯無限再生，相關營收勢必受到嚴重影響。畢竟，便宜又能再生的耗材只對客戶有利，卻對公司毫無幫助。

RE: Stationery Supplies
While we appreciate your efforts to save on costs by reverting used equipment back through time to render it new again, our Printing Department has flagged that their profitability depends on sales of low-cost printers and high-cost ink. If ink should become an infinitely sustainable resource through temporal reversion, it would significantly impact sales. Cheap, renewable consumables only serve the customer, not the company.
