      I’d say network printers are fine, but ones that require a ‘cloud’ connection can gag on my dong. I have a brother business aio printer hooked up via network and it’s been everything I wanted from it, after our Epson shit the bed a couple years ago.

      Why did you need the internet for network printing? You’ve been able to print over network for decades without needing the internet. I stopped using printers 15 years ago both at home and at work so had no idea this had happened. In a rare situation where I do need to print I use the work MFP or go to the library and pay 20c a page. Happens once every 2 or 3 years.

      The ones you plug to your intranet with an Ethernet cable, and which talk the common lpr protocol. Those are really good. E.g. the Brother laser printers.
