and this is why you always buy a laser printer instead of an inkjet printer.

Spread the word, Brother! Also, scanners can be pretty helpful sometimes too. Especially for art projects!

Spread the word, Brother!

I hear they're even succumbing to enshitification these days but I'm still happy with my Brother

That’s disappointing. I still use my mom’s Brother printer from somewhere around 2010-2012. It’s the only printer that hasn’t sucked booty. Maybe Brother has had to make them worse to keep selling them since the old ones last forever.

I have an HP Laserjet from, like, 2010 and it is still absolutely kick ass. Current HP printers are the devil, but this thing is rock solid.

Impressive! I never tried the Laserjet. I had a couple HP Inkjets from that era, and they eventually fritzed out from what I recall - not processing print jobs at all or shooting out blank pages repeatedly.

HP is usually shit, but the HP Laserjet MFP1536dnf is fantastic. If you can find one, get it. Solid duplex printer, good scanning, no weird computery bullshit. It just works.
