What 1999 comedy about office workers features a scene destroying a printer? Office Space is the answer. Mike Judge's satirical black comedy follows frustrated employees at the fictional software company Initech, where pointless procedures, malfunctioning technology, and indifferent management turn ordinary office life into absurd comedy.

The famous printer scene shows Peter Gibbons, Michael Bolton, and Samir destroying a dysfunctional printer in an open field. The sequence is staged like a gangster execution, with slow motion and the Geto Boys song “Still” intensifying the joke. It grew from Judge's own frustration with a printer while writing Beavis and Butt-Head Do America.

Office Space was adapted from Judge's Milton animated shorts and was his first live-action feature. The film initially underperformed theatrically, earning about $12.2 million against a $10 million budget, but became highly popular on home video. Other enduring details include Milton's red Swingline stapler, the “TPS reports,” and the error message “PC LOAD LETTER.”
