I love how every thread or post about printers ends up in people just recommending a Brother. I really hope they keep going doing what they are doing.
But also get a Brother (human). They can be handy.
The downside is that if it's a brand new one, it may take a while to become useful.
Good point. Thankfully theres a thriving second-hand Brother market.
This is starting to sound a little too slavery-y...
And here I was thinking of the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program lol
Especially if they own a printer.
Also get a laser printer. They cost more but are much better suited to infrequent use, with an ink jet the ink will dry out if you don't use it, a laser printer can be left alone for ling periods. A black and white laser printer is about as expensive as a colour ink jet. I really like my brother b&w laserprinter.
