BTW, I've had my Brother laser MFP for 11 years and still on the original toner.

I've used tons of dot matrix, inkjets and lasers since the 80s. I've used them in MSDOS, ProDOS, Linux, BSD, Windows, MacOS, OSX, and BeOS. I don't know how many I've owned or how many different OS versions but I know I've had exactly 1 printer that wasn't constantly a problem and its a Brother laser printer.

Okidata Microline dot matrix printer has entered the chat

They're fine until they get off track with the page perforations. And the ribbons last quite a while, but are technically a security risk

Wow, I think I had an Okidata modem at one point. I haven't thought about that in a long time.
