I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

    Third voice for a Brother. I used to work an office supply store and they were by far the most reliable printers we sold.

      That was because of a misunderstanding. Brother started a subscription service and people assumed that meant you had to pay a monthly fee to use the printers like with HP. Instead, it’s a toner subscription like Dollar Shave Club or Amazon’s Subscribe and Save where they auto-send a new toner at your requested interval.

        I also heard a rumor about something somewhere, that maybe something might have happened. But I’m not sure. /S

        I just installed a Brother printer for my dad, absolutely zero bullshit.
