A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

imo the best printer is somebody else's printer, i.e your school's, work's, or library's. Not worth dealing with that shit
Sure but what if you're in your underwear and want to print a pretty page right now?
If your employer won't let you in to print a picture off in your underwear... what are they even doing!?
Not to mention those prudish bus drivers
We have a cheap and reliable black and white laser printer at home for convenient printing of stuff like return labels.
On the rare occasion colour of photo prints are needed, there’s a great little independent print and photo place in town that does prints for pennies.
Seems to be the best of both worlds.
My brother laser fits into the same basic role. I paid extra for the colour version however. The key is that laser toner never goes bad, unlike inkjets.
That's my strategy. If I add up all the printing I've done at libraries, schools, work, etc. it would cost a fraction of buying my own.
They take up so much space that can be used for more useful things, too.
The only printers Ive seen "publicly" cost money to use. I'd rather firewall my brother printer and manually refill the cartridge with 3rd party ink. More private that way
My local library lets you print up to 30 pages for free. I was pretty shocked, because I was ready to pay when I needed to print something last time I was there.
People printing 30 pages at the library is likely rare enough that getting a member through the door is worth the $3 they could have charged.
I'll have to check out what my library offers, just in case. Also I havent been in there in a while. I like libraries :)
Like owning a boat. Best if your friend has one and you bring the beers (paper).
