The appliance that elicits anger and frustrated at it’s mere sight. The treacherous device that never worked right.

    In grad school I picked up a an old free HP LaserJet, with an Ethernet NIC card (it was an upgradable printer, maybe from the mid 2000s?).

    It was great! Only complaint was no duplexer, but the thing printed great from Linux and the generic toner was cheap.

    Today though…the experience is a bit different.

      Yeah I got an HP laser MFC with like 3 new carts 10 years ago. NIC and Duplex. Going to have it for at least 10 more years or brother when it dies.
