      Those bastards like me that want reliability. I am willing to fight with the printer but not deal with the better half when that expensive shit box doesn’t work

      Who in the world would put a cheap blackbox in their household and give it access to the internet.

      Selfhosted CUPS bby!

      The reasonably new android phones seem to detect unix network printers now, so wireless printing works as well. Mostly… we’re talking about the printers after all.

          Yeah, wireless printers can eat my refuse. I just spent a fruitless hour fixing my neighbours printer. Their crime? Restarting the router spooked the printer connection to the network. Shit system integration and poor documentation make this job needlessly painful.

            I have a wireless Canon. Has worked flawlessly for years. Never had any issues. Replace the ink every now and again and it keeps chugging.

                Partner hasn’t had issues either actually. Normally I’m in full agreeance about printers, and wifi printers. But this one has been solid.
