Fuck HP.

This post was brought to you by the Brother Laser Printer gang.

Hell yeah, brother

FUCK YEAH, I got one last month. Best printer I've ever had. No, I'm not being paid to say this. Fuck HP!

Bought a laser printer in early 2020 and am still on my first toner cartridge lol

Ok am I taking crazy pills? I bought into the laser printer hype from reddit and got a Brother. And it's a good printer and all, but my toner runs out just as often as the inkjet did! And I don't print a lot, like maybe a page per week on average. Am I doing something wrong?

You have to be doing something wrong dude, that's crazy

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

What are you printing out? Photos of the night sky?

[–] Ktanaqui@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Definitely doing something wrong my dude. My cartridges last several reams of paper.

So the cartridge that came with my laser lasted a month of heavy printing and the off brand replacement is still going with daily use after a year or more.
