    This is part of the reason I still have an HP 4050DTN and an HP 5000DTN. Plain B&W, but absolutely bulletproof and lacking all tracking, subscription, or DRM bullshit.

    Hell, I can still get overstuffed cartridges that can do 20,000 prints at 5% coverage. I’m on my third one in two decades and two degrees with my 4050.

      Yep. HP P1102W here. I print a bunch for work and myself. Can’t even say how long a $20 toner cartridge lasts. I’m surprised when it finally runs low.

      Thanks for name-dropping these. I’m kind of in the market for an old-ass printer after learning about this lol.
