Hello brother. 🙏 May I talk to you for a minute about our lord and savior Brother Laser Jet Printer.
I said I’ve been trying for 20 years. Obviously it’s a Brother.
For real, how is it that Brother makes the only printer that everything from my phone to my servers can use without problems. Bonus points for not gouging on toner.
Xerox has been great for me. They dont just make giant copiers you need a forklift to deliver and a giant service contract. They still make small home office desk printers.
After wiring up to my network and giving it a static, it's just worked, for all devices for everyone. No need to download or install anything either.
