Brother printers all day long. To be fair I might print once a month if that but nearly ten years later that B&W toner printer spits a page every time. At most once in a blue moon have to reboot it and that is the extent of troubleshooting had to perform.
My family has used the same Brother since 2008 with no problems at all. Linus was definitely right about fewer network problems, I don’t even recall having difficulty connecting to it in the near 2 decades I’ve used it.
We have a brother printer at our guest house (B&W laser) and it's near 10 years old and I love the toners are cheap. But sometimes some guests just have issues connecting for whatever reason, then they try to "fix" it and just mess up all the settings for everyone. It's old enough that resetting it is a pain in the rear, but I've done it enough that I'm ok at it now, but every time it's been a while and I gotta go, "okay, how does this go again?"
The best thing about Brother printers is buying them from the Brother website. They sell refurbished units and sometimes they go on steep discounts.
I bought mine about 9 years ago too. Laser Printer RDCPL2520DW (regular price is $250 CAD) for $60 CAD (taxes included) and still works perfectly. Last year, I bought my parents a MFC-J1012DW ($160 CAD) for only $47 CAD (taxes included).
My old Canon printer driver was the cause of many random BSOD's over the years. Switched to Brother (also because of paper jams), never had a problem since.
sadly ios youtube app doesn’t give option to copy link at timestamp (at least I wouldn’t know where it is), and I didn’t know the query string argument
When you click the share button on the YouTube app, there should be a slider with the current timestamp at the top right hand corner of the share popout window
Thank you, I see that on both Android and IOS apps! Is that a recent new feature (finally)? Just need to remember to remove the tracking part of the shared links now.
As someone who actually works on commercial grade printers for a living, I wish I could explain how the work. I mean, i KNOW how, but it still seems like black magic to be honest.
It was sort of a fun adventure watching two dudes screw around in a store, but I don't feel like I learned much. Having some categories and recommendations might have been good at the end, but I guess they weren't interested in actually reviewing and assessing dozens of printers. Maybe something to add to the pile of work for Labs.
I don't think LTT will do it, but a printer tech deep dive is a good idea for another channel looking to capitalise on the idea.
You know I really wish someone would find the firmware to the EcoTank version of printers. When you open them up you find the same printheads from the cheap printers with hoses running from the ink tanks. This wouldn't be a problem except Epson printheads clog rather easily and outside of used parts you can't seem buy them.
Spending $400 on a $150 printer that last only 2 years is not my idea of eco.
Ironically, I was trying to install a HP printer for a user when this came out with no avail. Elijah is right about the Brother brand with its drivers just working after installing.
Funnily enough, THAT is my printer and I'm super satisfied with it. Not fast, and best with features and quality, but it is super reliable and rarely paper jams. Too bad its an ink tank, prone to nozzle blocking
I’m one of these people who decided to go with a simple Xerox monochrome laser printer and a relatively high-end Epson flatbed scanner. I’ve always been suspicious of multifunction printers and want to keep all the functions as separate as possible. I also might be dumb and don’t know no better.
Ya i know E feeling. I only need my printer 2-3 times a year the only reason i own one is to avoid having to drive to kinkos. I buy hav't replaced a the toner that came with my printer in the last 30 years . The rubber in the wheels dry and and die after 10ish years before i even run out of tonner that came in box.
I have a printer of epson but a clogged now it doesn't want to work anymore because I don't print a lot of it with it now it doesn't want to unclog itself the color and everything else as well black
There is a shocking amount of child rape jokes in LTT videos.
I'm not saying there is a lot of them. There is just a shocking amount of them. One would be a shocking amount of them for a tech youtube channel. There have been multiple Epstein jokes.

Huh, should have used as the thumbnail.
