A printer manufacturer obtained the following probabilities from a database of test results. Printer failures are associated with three types of problems: hardware, software, and other (such as connectors), with probabilities 0.1, 0.6, and 0.3, respectively. The probability, of a printer failure given a hardware problem is 0.8, given a software problem is 0.3, and given any other type of problem is 0.4. If a customer enters the manufacturer's Web site to diagnose a printer failure, what is the most likely cause of the problem? O Hardware category
