Even my for Apple gear, I printed some of the "booting sequence options"
because if I have problems, I can't access the doc when the machine is
down. Finding that technical page on the Apple web site would be way too
time consuming even if you had acess to the web.
For my older router, I had printed its doc so that in times of problems,
I had the list of commands to enter to debug the PPPoE negotiations etc.
The thing with digital documentation is that it sometimes takes much
longer to get to the relevant place than with printed doc. (depending
on format and whether they created proper bookmarks).
