I guess printers really might become the next "friend who has a truck."

You mean printer that works.

Don't aim so high

"functions" is good enough

A cheap black and white Brother laser printer costs maybe 150€ and will immediately work when pulled from a cupboard after two years.

Okay but which model? I heard they're going in on subscription models too.

Your post is helpful, informational, and made in good faith, and yet I desperately want to downvote it.

[-] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 years ago

I searched it on Duck Duck Go to verify. Then I tried searching for "no subscription" and "without subscription" and every single result is instructions on how to register your Brother printer for their auto-fulfillment program or talking about how brave and bold they are for offering such a service.
I'm very disappointed, and as an aside, I am reminded that the internet is now awful.

Libraries are really good friends.

Unfortunately being charged 50 cents a print job adds up quick

My local library system does 10 pages free per day.

Njm1314 has been cruelly betrayed by university print schemes and it shows

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Damn that's nice.

[-] KISSmyOSFeddit@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Damn, my copy shop charges 5 cents per page.

[-] Shadowedcross@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

I have both a 3D printer and a paper printer... now I just need friends.
