No. It’s like bitwarden. Everyone’s praising them to shill levels because they are generally that good. Brothers just run and run without nagging or insane prices. They do tend to be a little more expensive because they don’t lose money on the hardware like HP or cannon will.
Perfect analogy. I completely shill for both Bitwarden and Brother printers because they legit are just that good. When I find products like that they’re what I push to my family and friends because they “just work.”
Not advertising but I did buy a brother laser maybe two years ago for home. I rarely need color, if I need something stunning I’ll send it to Office Depot and pay .50 each. That’s maybe two time a year. $20 a year for an off brand toner cartridge otherwise.
LOL, if not, Brother’s marketing should lean into it. I got an old HP laser that cranks 1,000+ pages for $20. I’ll run the wheels off it and buy a Brother.
HP is coasting on goodwill from us old folks who remember when they were the best of best.
I’ll shill for brother because it’s cheap, they don’t lock out generic cartridges, prints well on the network from Linux, and seem to last.
What they are missing on compared to HP is parts support. However, the comparable HP printer with parts support is twice the price and the parts are almost the cost of a new cheap printer.
Are these posts about HP just a way for Brother to advertise in the comment section
I mean I’m definitely cancelling my HP subscription, but still. It’s a lot.

I think it’s just wave after wave of people who are shocked to discover what a horrible mess HP printers are. Some of us learned it many years ago.

Lexmark is okay too, I guess.
