Throughout my life i have set up a multitude of different printers. None of them have been a pleasant experience. Why is this, and is there a printer that is actually good?
Order of priorities:
- Free/open software and hardware
- Available ink/toner and spares
- No connectivity “dumb as a rock”
Print quality really doesent matter unless it is really bad. Of course, im willing to make sacrifices on all of these points, but you get the gist.
Any suggestions for models that comes even close to any of these requirements?
Also has a smaller laserjet. No nonsense, just USB. Toner lasted a few thousand pages.
Basically indestructible. Brother replaced it with a wifi samsung laser, bad move.
Wifi? Rarely works and requires a data harvesting app to be installed on your pc.
NFC? Doesn’t work.
I now connect to it via usb. Works fine like that. I preferred the old printer.
