      Yeah, the only time I needed to print something in the last 5 years was a passport renewal form. I just spent 10 cents to print it at my local library. I really don’t understand why anybody really needs a printer nowadays.

      Part of the reason I got a brother LaserJet instead of an Epson eco tank was because I don’t need to worry about toner drying out. As much as I try to avoid it, I still need to print once in a blue moon and it’s not really “efficient” to drive to the library.

        Yeah I had a legal document that needed a shorter turnaround than the time it took me to drive to the library print it, bring it by and submit it. So I own a LaserJet brother printer I got at office Max because my HP printer doesn’t print anymore because I unsubscribed from their ink shipping service so they remotely bricked it.

        I highly recommend everyone buy a black and white toner based printer. Its the way to go to hit the right blend of “I live paperless what need have I for a printer” and “oh actually my society isn’t totally paperless sometimes I need a printed document”
