You have no idea how much I regret buying a Canon Pixmass printer on offer for 50€. I should have just sucked it up and coughed up 100 more to get a damn Brother laser printer.
Well,at least now I get to replace ink cartridges every week or so and I get to print my ass on photographic paper.
100%. I got the Brother HL-2370DW and it served me well, but it’s a black-and-white laser printer and sometimes I needed to print in color. I got fed up dealing with inkjet printers so I got the Brother HL-3270CDW. It’s great at printing off props and visual aids for my weekly tabletop game and so on.
It’s not technically “perfect” - sometimes a Mac will fail to print to them wirelessly and say they printed fine (and that seems to be an issue on the Mac side) and I think we average maybe one paper jam per year - but it’s as close to perfect as I’ve ever gotten with a printer.
Last time I tried to print from a library, it was print-to-pdf wasn’t an easy thing, and laptops were rare and underpowered. So printing from a different computer was hard if that computer didn’t have the same programs.
I’m glad things have gotten better and you are able to use the library!
To be fair, when are printers not broken?
Buy a brother LaserJet and never worry again.
Brother gang, rise up
Our Brother sewing machine is fantastic. It doesn’t print though
You know, we also have a very sturdily built Brother sewing machine and I never noticed that they’re the same company that made our printer.
Maybe it’s a sibling company ?
Technically it does. Just not through PC.
That’s right…
Amen, Brother.
Brothers, even.

Live and learn I guess.

I haven’t had a broken printer in years!
My local library branch is walking distance and has free printing, so I got rid of my printer.
Awesome!
