Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be contained in a standard anomalous containment vault at Site-XX, and is not to be removed other than for testing purposes by Level Three security clearance and above or by request of level 4 security clearance. Two arm guards are to be stationed outside of the containment Vault at all times other than on breach events. should SCP-XXXX somehow be stolen, Task Force XXX is to be deployed for retrieval as soon as possible. at no point in time should SCP-XXXX be connected to any form of internet, except on temporary controlled test networks.

Description: SCP-XXXX is an HP LaserJet 1320 model printer, that when a command is printed from it, anyone who reads said command will immediately begin carrying out everything specified in the command. Any subject that has read a command is to be given the designation is to be identified as SCP-XXXX-1. if SCP-XXXX-1's body is incapable of completing its task, the subject will begin to change body composition to assist in the completion of the task, these changes are gradual and will stop once the subject is able to continue with the task, starting again should the subject encounter another obstacle, the only way to stop this event is to destroy the paper with the command, via burning or dropping in acid, or to kill the subject. If a command has already been read by an individual, it will no longer effect anyone else, unless the original reader is killed. Should SCP-XXXX not have anyone in the vicinity able to read the command, and it is connected to a network with other printers, SCP-XXXX will send the command via the closest printer to an individual who can read the command. There are no effects if the command is only half read, or the individual reading is illiterate. At this time it is unknown if SCP-XXXX has a limited amount of ink or paper as no way of checking the capacity of either is currently known, both ports that would be used for refilling have both been deemed, impossible to open.

Addendum: SCP-XXXXA, SCP-XXXX is placed into a room, on a folding table, connect via Fiber-optic cable to a computer in the test command chamber. on the table are various objects, including a spoon, Butter knife, and a ball. 1 Male, D-Class Personnel, Age Mid to Late 40s,enter the test chamber. Doctor ████ types command: "Pick up ball" and SCP-XXXX begins to print. The subject walks forward and views the command, the picks up the ball and holds it near his chest. Docter ████ then types: "Hold ball over head." it prints, and SCP-XXXX-1 holds the ball over his head. The test continues with the Spoon and Knife. Doctor ████ the types: "Impale ball with knife." SCP-XXXX-1 complies, then Doctor ████ types: "Impale spoon with knife." SCP-XXXX-1 takes the knife and spoon, pressing the blade to the bucket of the spoon, seemingly just pressing them together. Doctor ████ is about to end the test before SCP-XXXX-1 is successful in Impaling the spoon with the butter knife.
