Small victory. Have you heard of our lord and savior, the cheap Brother laser printer?

Too little, too late, assholes. I already bought an Epson tank printer and will never look back.

My HP was such a fucking cock-weasel.

If it’s inkjet, which I’m pretty sure that is, then the nozzles will clog if you don’t print often. Laser is superior for that case

I hate this boundary-pushing enshittification shit.

Fuck HP. My wife has an HP printer at work that she can’t print to without an app.

The app drains her iPad battery in 4 hours so she had to remove it but kept it on her phone.

She can’t print to our Brother at home because the app intercepts the share/print capability.

Such a piece of shit company.
