While she might have phrased it more gently, her advice to spell the name
correctly is sound. If one is searching for information and using a

a lot of information about Canon printers out there, if one spells "Canon"
properly.

You might be interested, being in PR and all, that the preferred way of
posting is to delete all but what you are replying to, and place your
reply at the bottom, followed by a dash dash space return, like so:

That way most News clients will delete everything below it, the sig
delimiter, when you hit Reply.
