“Once upon a time, I bought a Brother color laser. It never failed to do its job. The End.”

I just bought one last week and holy shit you aren't joking. Our Canon was malfunctioning for the last 2 years, so I finally bought a refurbed B&W Brother Laser. I've never had a printer just work like this. I didn't even have to connect to it. My browser just automatically detected it, even on Linux.

Wait, what?

Probably misspoke saying the browser is what detected it, but the first time I went to print anything was from Firefox and the printer was already there.
