@ross They're on point. I bought one of those brother cheapies for less than 100€ recently, and it's working great. Apparently they have been churning out my exact model for at least ten years now. It doesn't have wifi, has no cloud integration, doesn't even have a display, but just works without a fuss, and does an adequate job.

@Zitruskeks @jaseg @ross Can confirm the long-term reliability. However, I couldn't find a new developer unit when I tried replacing it some months ago 🙁 Not that the old one is *broken* broken, but the plastic clamp that holds the toner cartridge tight is worn out. @Zitruskeks @jaseg @ross we have a Kyocera Ecosys colour laser printer at home and honestly it just works It does have Ethernet and Wi-Fi, though, which was one of the main reasons I got it — I wanted a network printer The only thing that did not work was Google Cloud Print; the device went into crash loop if you had that set up |
@jaseg @ross I still have my 15 years old Kyocera FS-1300D. It has 6LED that clearly communicate its status, a chunky real power switch, it has no wifi (to be fair not even LAN, so it dangles on a lan to usb print server), I have forgotten when I last changed toner (that i all bought 15 years ago) and it is just there and prints when i need a print and nothing else.
