Before buying this printer, I made a quick search to confirm that it has wifi connectivity... (the algorithm lied to me) - eviltoast

and because i’m a lazy ass i didn’t read the specs but just read the search engine result.

I also assumed that because 6 years ago i bought a $50 hp envy and it had wifi, this much expensive one is also going to have it

Result: that $250 printer doesn’t actually have wifi

    Even the printers that sell print heads as parts charge 3/4 of the printers price for them.

    And, if you don’t print from an inkjet inside of about 6 months they often get clogged.

    Laser printers can sit around for a decade fire right up and be fine. Inkjet printers are but for a narrow set of circumstances destined in short-term for e-waste.
