Brother lasers are pretty great.

Yep. We have a black and white Brother laser printer, and it's lasted* for at least five years now. Toner is so much cheaper than those stupid, tiny cartridges with not-enough-cyan.

I got mine as a display model when Office Depot/Max were killing off stores that were too close together and I had had no issues in the at least 7 years Iโ€™ve had it. Its a black and white printer and have used CVS or where for printing pictures the off chance I need to. I also have only bought toner a time or two over the years. Dual sided scanning and printing? For my occasional use its perfect.

This is the way.

I got a b/w Brother laser and have been using it with Windows, Linux and Android devices with no issues. It has lasted me through 6 years of university and I've only replaced the toner once. Probably the best technology investment I've ever made.
