and because i'm a lazy ass i didn't read the specs but just read the search engine result.
I also assumed that because 6 years ago i bought a $50 hp envy and it had wifi, this much expensive one is also going to have it
Result: that $250 printer doesn't actually have wifi
Honestly why buy a printer? Consumer grade sucks and printing is typically .10 a page
if I didn't have a printer I would need a standalone scanner, which costs almost the same amount
Driving to Staples to print a $0.10 page wastes $50 worth of time and gas
A cheap printer pays for itself very quickly.
I guess it depends where your printers are.The library is a mile from me and cost .1. My work also has free printing.
I don’t think it’s worth it in how quickly ink dried out. Those higher tier ones that print thousands per cartridge are worth it but expensive.
I've bought two laser printers, both for about $50.
My 1997 laser just died this summer. That's 27 years of runtime. Even if it was $500, that's $18/year, with thousands of pages printed, and I think I replaced the toner once.
Glad you have a printer nearby. I do to, but it would take me an hour to print one page, because I'd have to copy it to a thumb drive, then go to the print shop (15 min, using fossil fuels to get there), then deal with printing and hope it prints right, then shuffle back home.
I mean, yea, that's a fabulous approach. Do that 50 times and I've paid for my printer.
That sounds 100% worth it. I would also pay $500 if I knew which could last so long. I'm talking the inkjet garbage that doesn't last and ink is more expensive than the machine.
The library is a mile from me too, that's a 30 minute round trip, or I have to drive and pay for parking
I bought a $60 inkjet 10+ years ago. Every 3-4 years I buy a multipack of aftermarket ink for $30. Every 18 months when the cartridge dries up half full in my printer I chuck it knowing the $5 of ink I just wasted saved me $400 in billable hours
I specifically bought this to print photos, ink is not ridiculously expensive like other models, is like $150 per liter, which is still high considering that's colored water, but not the usual $5000 per liter.
Oh okay, idk about printing photos!
What everybody else said, plus availability.
If I need to leave for an emergency trip at 5:00 in the morning, and I wouldn't print stuff out for immigration before then... I basically need to have a printer at home. To be always available
People are coming over for game night, I'll just print out a bunch of character sheets... I didn't have a printer I'd have to plan ahead.
Availability, provides optionality, provides convenience. Making life easier.
But, I'll concede, when I had available access to 24/7 printers I didn't buy my own. Only when I lost that access did I buy my own printer
