I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

    Looks like I’m not changing my almost 10 year HP LaserJet printer after all…

      Picked up a brother monochrome laser printer 3 years ago. I’d never get anything else, it’s a printing beast.

        Same here. Granted, I don’t print a lot, but maybe that’s exactly why my Brother monochrome is so good for me. It cost three times as much as a basic colour inkjet with a flatbed scanner, but at least it’s reliable whenever I do need it. It simply does what it’s supposed to, and it’s fast.

      You can try, I recently went to buy Ink for my old HP ink jet and found it hard to find them in stock. Seems they stopped making them. A perfectly good printer is nearly useless because they stopped making cartridges

        I guess I won’t have much trouble for the next couple years because my father used to run a business on recharging toner cartridges so he still has several empty toners with him …and the toner powder is still sold on aliexpress …lucky me
