Comment on Dear Brother Printers: Eat a bag of dicks!

  I actually had a little bit of a panic attack because I just bought a shit tonne of toner for my Brother and I was afraid I might get locked out of it, but I just bought this printer last year and it’s not giving me any hassle with third party toner.

    I would still turn off auto updates.

      I would never let a printer be connected to the outside internet unless there was a specific remote printing option I needed that couldn’t be done over remote desktop.

      I love my Brother, that thing has been a tank, but it’s never going to get to know the world exists out of my office.

        Does it have a USB port? Use that instead of the network interface.
