Hey lemmy. I’ve been paying out of pocket to get stickers printed from online printing companies. But its getting expensive and I think I’d like to get a printer to do the job.
HOWEVER, I’ve been avoided getting a printer, because, well, the whole thing is just a shit show. Our household went through like a printer a year for almost four years. Between ink prices, and the printers just failing, we threw our hands up and said fuck it. Not playing this game, so we shifted to printing services or the local library.
So I’m looking for a very basic (I think?) printer. Honestly, a black only printer might even be fine. I’ve heard I think that maybe Canons or Brothers are the ones you want and HP’s are to be avoided. The purpose of the printer will be to print stickers on sticker paper. What printer should I buy?


Cannon definitely enshitified. I have one from 5 years ago that is taking up space on my desk because I haven’t got around to the Office Space treatment.
My first big problem was when it wouldn’t scan documents because the color ink cart was out, completely unnecessary for the task at hand! It always had issues with feeding paper unless it was perfectly aligned and you’d made thr proper blood sacrifices but it just doesn’t load paper at all any more, just spins wheels pretending it wants to move paper.
