I don't hate all printers, but I viscerally hate HP printers. They have all of the anticonsumer bullshit. I won't even buy other HP products (laptops) because I had such a bad experience with their shitty printers.
Brother's laserjets are great, I use one at home now. My most reliable printer was actually an old Samsung monocolor laser printer, lasted 10 years before kicking the bucket.
Edit: such is my hatred for HP printers that I would volunteer to smash all of them in my free time. HP printer genocide is warranted.
My last HP shit the bed about 6 months after I bought it. I got really mad at it and got a Brother. No regrets.
I have a tiny HP LaserJet and it's pure awesome. It's also ancient.
If I ever buy another it will be a Brother laser, no question.
I have a Laserjet III and jetdirect 500x set up in my mancave/hobbyspace. Acquired it about quarter century ago, and It. Just. Works. As long as unofficial spareparts and toner are available I'm good. Epson ecotank handles colour printing needs.
