Brother printers haven't "innovated" in years, and produce fully functional printers without software lockout and freemium "features". They just make printers, and don't screw their customers. Brother is the Toyota of printers.

Tesla is the HP of printers. Deviates greatly from a standard model of a printer, locks down standard printer features, and sells them back to the customer as a service.

Well the new brothers refuse to print when toner is low. Old ones would still print after giving the toner cartridge a shake even if the prints looked shitty.
