Here's what I use mine for:

  • stuff for my kids, like mazes, coloring sheets, etc
  • stuff for my church, so handouts and whatnot - substitute any other form of charity
  • labels for gifts for friends/neighbors (esp around Christmas)
  • receipts, packing labels, etc for stuff purchased online - everything seems to want me to use their app and I refuse
  • stencils for Halloween pumpkins
  • instructions for board games if I lose/destroy the originals
  • details for plane tickets in case my phone dies
  • lots of photocopies of important documents to keep in the safe

Yup.

I didn't have a printer when I was single, I'd just go to the library to print schoolwork or whatever. I got it initially for my SO's immigration paperwork, and kept it for all of the above. We went w/ a B&W laser printer, which has been fantastic for us. If I ever need color prints (e.g. for my kids' schoolwork), I'll just go to the library that's a mile away ($0.10/sheet IIRC).
