i need some help buying a monochrome laser printer with scanning that supports linux, plug and play is a nice thing to have.
🖨️ my available brands are : Epson, cannon and brother
❌ no need for WiFi, fax ,ect
The cheapest brother laser printer is the one to get.
This is what i did.
9 years ago. Still runs like new. Great little thing!
Its 100% wireless though. But connects to my router and then everything on the LAN can print
am i not missing anything from the higher priced ones besides apps and wifi ?
Might be worth it if you want network printing. Usb only is fine, but it’s worth paying a little extra to get Ethernet if that’s what you want. Mdns/avahi/bonjour make things easy for sure. Wifi printers always suck, I’d avoid that. I’ve had nothing but good results with my brother b&w on wired Ethernet.
At all three tiers (low, mid, and high end), out of those three available brands, you always want brother.
