@netspooky@haunted.computer my current printer is a HP laserjet 1011 that I hastily bought a year ago on local classifieds, becauase I had to print something for the next day. I paid $20 and I met the guy at 10pm that day. It still works. The drivers suck but the consumables for that model are the cheapest on the market. I'm not getting any HP wifi connected printer ever. Considering making a network print server, but I cant find linux drivers for it...

@gorplop@pleroma.m68k.church @netspooky@haunted.computer similar, except I bought it new, around 2004. My Pi Zero says I'm using the hpcups driver.

@gorplop@pleroma.m68k.church @netspooky@haunted.computer I've been using a Brother HL-1430 for 20 years, mostly with Linux. Consumables are cheap, and the print quality has always been sufficient. Most people will be well served with a used printer.
