If my mom had an AR headset, I could more easily help her troubleshoot why her printer won’t print or why her PC has no internet.

Aside from checking if the cable is plugged in what can AR tell her that the monitor can't?

Off the top of my head: replacing ink or paper, navigating the on-device menu, or troubleshooting bad prints.

I could even record my own 3D instructions with animations of interaction with the printer and all, showing exactly what buttons to press and what lids to open where and how, etc.

Wait: Are you suggesting that people read the manual to troubleshoot‽
