I gave up on my cannon printer... its just a scanner now... I scan and email to myself.... and have the local place print it and mail it out if they can.... or take it to the post office a block away... beats paying $30 for ink that drys out in a week.

Same. I only very infrequently print anything, and when I do it’s usually a business letter. I was paying $25-30 to print a letter due to ink drying up. Finally I bought this relatively cheap laser printer:

After 6 months it’s working okay. It’s a little quirky about connecting to wi fi sometimes, but overall when I need to print it works. And I use my POS HP for scanning.

I hurled my Canon printer out the door onto the concrete. It felt so good! I only need an occasional B&W print so I bought a Brother mono laser printer. So far so good. It’s on a shelf in my closet. If I need it it wakes up, does its job and goes back to sleep.
