    I bought my parents a laser printer after years of them being incredibly frustrated by inkjets. I got them the same model as me, as well as a spare toner cartridge.

    I’m still on my original toner cartridge, and I’ve had it for probably six years or so.

    My parents are in their late 40’s and early 50’s. I think I might have accidentally gotten them a lifetime supply of printing.

      I got my parents a laser as well and evidently I picked a shitty one because they are planning to go back to the other side 😞

      Considering the volume businesses need weekly vs a private household I wonder why the very same cartridge lasts for >5 years
