I bought a Brother about a year ago. I hadn't owned a printer in about 12-15 years. In Japan, one can generally just print things at the convenience store (after uploading (app, browser, etc.) or via USB stick), but I moved to the middle of nowhere and got tired of going back and forth. I also needed to print things like business cards which the cobini printers won't do.
I used to take out my reliable ol' USB pendrive whenever I wanted to print something. Then right after a printing errand I found out my pendrive had gotten sick with a virus called "Marcelo" and suddenly all the document files on the family PC turned into shortcuts that lead to an encrypted folder. Never again lol
Just bought a brother laser for my job. Damn toner ran out on day 1. I printed 400 pages but still... Oh brother
In usa you can email documents to staples to get a code to print on their copiers for a fee
I've heard good things about Brother, how's the ink and Linux situation with those?
I test printed once from Mint, but couldn't daily-drive linux due to other software I need to work not working after a mint version upgrade.
