IT guy here. Printers are hell. I've seen an HP Officejet All-in-one inkjet literally fall apart in less than a year because of (mild) daily use. Inkjet printers are trash. I would not rescue an inkjet printer from the curb. I volunteered at a non-profit that had some sort of xerox solid wax BS printer that cost hundreds of dollars to maintain, we swapped it out with a laser and suddenly all the problems disappeared. The daily printer problems my profession has to deal with - did you really intend that job to use legal size paper in the bypass tray?? People don't deserve this. What I've done is 15 years ago I bought the smallest laser I could find (HP p1005) and I keep it in a cupboard. I use it maybe once a year and it never has ink clogs. I suspect the most realistic route for most people is to use Other People's Printers, which is what this article is describing.
