Are people still out there buying new ink cartridges every time they need to print something? I was sick of that s*** in 2019 and returned my printer to Costco and I'm never buying another printer again.
I just bought a laser printer. Toner never goes bad and it prints faster and better than ink
You just bought it? Well I've got news for you. It's going to start nagging you about ink cartridges in a couple months. Yes even laser printers do this. I thought just like you when I bought a laser printer that I had escaped the ink cartridge nightmare. Nope.
“Your laser printer, which doesn’t use ink, will nag you about buying ink” is a wild sentence.
You must use Windows and bought an HP laser jet, cause I don’t have that problem. Linux + that Brother laser printer everyone has = tech that isn’t garbage.
