My old person trait is that when I purchase a printer, I should be able to use whatever is the cheapest compatible ink without the printer treating me like I'm smuggling unicorn blood out of Narnia
I bought a brother laser printer when my company sent us to WFH in March 2020 and I haven't looked back. Just replaced the ink (er, toner) in March 2023
I've heard excellent things about Brother being the least extortionate printer in the market. How well does it work on Linux by the way?
I have a brother inkjet (AIO but I only ever really use the printer now) and a Samsung monochrome laser.
They both work tremendously well with Linux. Honestly printers are easier in Linux now than they are in Windows.
