    A laser printer is actually better for low volume printing. With ink cartridges, they dry up if you don’t use them within a year and will need to be replaced.

    I’ve had my laser printer for about 12 years now, and only replaced the drum once since I print so little. Also, I have a Brother printer, which was roughly around $50 at the time.

      This is great wisdom. Brother printers are very cheap and 3rd party consumables moreso.

        Just block them from accessing the internet. They tend to auto-update their firmware and then some 3rd party cartridges will suddenly stop working.
