A Brother printer by any chance? My Brother printer is just like the one you descibed but it is not exceedingly rare that I print. It is just infrequent.

- chx 6y agoIs there a phone version of ThinkPads and Brother printers?
- fuzxi 6y agoNokia bricks, haha.
- kstrauser 6y agoSame for me. I had an HP 1200n that was a workhorse forever and ever, but was completely phone-unfriendly. AirPrint? Not in this life, bucko! I replaced it with a Brother HL-3120CDW and that things a freaking tank.
- ce4 6y agoOr add a "Raspberry Pi + CUPS"-dongle to the HP-1200n and it starts working on phone
- kstrauser 6y agoI did that, but at least at the time when I was trying to make that work, the Pi wasn't up to it. The short version was that the drivers available at that time couldn't translate from the AirPrint-wrapped format to the one that the HP expected, on a Raspberry Pi, in realtime. It was worth it to me to replace the printer so that I didn't have to listen to my wife hate on the poor HP every time she tried to print and had to wait a minute or two for it to start.
