    Being boycotting this shitstain company since Carly Fiorina turned it into a perfect example of peak 1990’s MBA management style (the kind that killed companies like GE) and, once again, I get to pat myself on the back for it.

    Almost 20 years of regular smug self-satisfaction for free is a pretty good investment.

      Any reliable recommendations for ink jets, in that case?

        Last time around I needed a new printer a couple of years ago, I looked around for decent inkjets and couldn’t really find any brands which weren’t undergoing enshittification, so as I only really need B&W I decided to pony up the extra money and bought a “cheap” Brother laser printer instead.

          Thanks, I share the same opinion, but don’t want a particle source at home for small/mid-volume printing.

        None.

        Go laser. It’s worth the difference in price.

        I have a 1996 Lexmark laser that just quit on me in July. It’s 14" wide, about 9" tall and 9" deep.

          I prefer lasers in special ventilated environments, but not at my home 😀
