    I bought an old business monochrome laser printer ten years ago. Still hasn’t needed a new toner cartridge.

      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
