I rarely use a printer now that my kids are in college. When it dies, I had a choice between laser printer, Brother inkjet, or none. “None” is now my first choice

We have a laser printer (Brother), and if it dies, I plan to just go to the local library.

That's what we did.

For the few pages we need to print, I can use the machine at the library for $0.10/page.
