If it refers to a feature of a "unique printer," it would likely mean a function that allows for quick, superficial processing or previewing of documents, rather than a full, detailed operation. e) If the manager were to say, "I like your sense of humour more than the product," it would mean that the manager found Alisha's personality, wit, or presentation style more impressive or appealing than the actual product (the unique printer) she was discussing.
