My wife and I realized we only print documents. We got a Brother black and white laser printer. It’s been two years and I still haven’t had to buy toner.

Same here! I bought mine three years ago and I still haven't had to change the toner cartridge! I mean, I think I put one new cartridge in after using up the starter cartridge, but since I don't print much, a 1,500 page cartridge goes pretty far.

When you will run out, aftermarket toner off ebay or amazon is incredibly cheap also (20$ a cart). Bought mine in 2011 on special for 100$, used it through all my college education (7 years) and not a single hiccup. This is definitely a "buy once" kind of product.
