I’m glad companies are continuing to innovate, but it feels wrong to be moving towards mechanical inventions again when we’ve finally nailed solid state tech. Have we forgotten how often printers used to break?
I’m old enough to remember when printers DIDN’T break. I’m sure lots of HP Laserjet II’s from the 1990s are still cranking out hundreds of pages per day today. Same thing with Okidata dot matrix printers from the era, for those who still want to use them. It was later when printers became crap.
