Title. I’m annoyed. It’s 18c a page, and $9ish shipping, but still.

It’s been a looooooong time since I’ve done anything with printers, so I don’t know what my options are.

Really I only have 2 requirements

  1. works well with Linux
  2. ink prices are sane

any suggestions?

    One of these: https://www.brother-usa.com/black-and-white-printers

    I have a (discontinued) HL-L2350DW that I bought several years ago and I still have like 80% toner capacity (according to Home Assistant). It still prints just as crisp as it did on day 1.

    I think most newer printers will work with IPP Everywhere™ AKA driverless, so you may not need to worry about a printer driver unless you want to plug it into your computer I guess.

    In which case, this package may help: https://github.com/pdewacht/brlaser (or check the AUR)
