Comment on Best printer 2024: a humorous critique of the Google search engine and printer enshittification

I’m still using my HL5280DW. The w (and later the n) both stopped working, so I connected it to an old pi I had laying around to print to it over the network.
Only downside is no Windows 11 (thanks new work laptop) driver support if I connect directly via USB.
I think I changed my toner for the first time like 2 years ago. The high capacity toner I bought with the printer worked just fine (after 16 years in my closet) when I installed it. I don’t expect it to run out of toner until I’m long dead.
