@apple_enthusiast It pains me to see all the efforts of Apple in the Apple Vision Pro, whereas what would really have made a significant difference is an Apple printer. Like a printer that actually works in a really, really easy way.

Brother laser printers just work. They don't have all the bs that inkjets have and they certainly don't put you through all the crap HP makes one endure. Highly, highly recommend them.

The best printer is still whatever random Brother laser printer is on sale.

100% agree. Buy a brother laser printer and be happy. I would NEVER buy anything else.

Hey watch it with that 'never' commitment eh!

A long time ago business class Brother printers weren't always that easy or reliable, and the HP's were rock solid and straightforward. If Brother enshittifies, the rankings will change.

My Brother laser printer will out live me; just like my Dad’s Brother laser printer before me; just like his Dad’s Brother laser printer before him… ok I kid about the grandfather case, but we’ve been using all of two Brother laser printers since the late 80s til now. Brother HL-10 (late 80s) and Brother MFC-L8900CDW (Pre-COVID). These things are built like tanks and isn’t likely to go anywhere in the foreseeable future.

@BombOmOm I’m struggling big time with Epson. Completely unpredictable. Works like a dream for a month or two, and then it will take hours to get it working again.
Point being, the iPhone was a reinvention of stuff that was already there. I’d like Apple to reinvent printing.
