Printers know I'm just looking for an excuse to go Office Space on them, so they always start working when I show up. Same with desktops. But get a Brother printer and you won't have issues. My 2007 model is still working fine, although the NIC died a few years ago and unfortunately doesn't have a functional driver I can find for a print server. But I found a $650 Brother multifunction at Goodwill for $10 that looked brand new, just needed a new toner cartridge.
