The printer at my leasing office

I have had some Brother and some Canon printers, I like the Brothers better. I have a Brother 2370DW. The models with W have wireless / wifi printing support. It is compact and works just fine.

Sometimes the wireless print doesn't get to the printer but opening the print queue shows the printing is paused, at other times there is a mysterious delay. That's the extent of issues I have had.

I went with this because the ink is estimated to last 2 years - I was dropping $50 for a new cartridge every time I hit print before. Purchased in Jan. Works perfectly and happy it is white so it matches my office now.

Why get inkjet when Laserjet is way better quality and its generic ink cartridges cost about $10.

I have an epson inkjet as well. Two years now and haven’t had to change the ink (though admittedly we are not heavy printers). Aside from the low maintenance cost, the machine actually works. Every HP I’ve ever owned had driver issues, needed constant updates, and couldn’t withstand long periods without use.

First time visiting this city so it’d be great to take in some sights too (although that’s not a priority of course).
