I had a trusty Bother MFC for years. It recently broke and I was looking around for another one when I realized that I might print a handful of things a year, so I used a printing service. Pretty painless experience and very wide range of options for quality and size if I ever needed that would be totally out of reach of even a very expensive home printer setup.
Per-page for basic black text is a lot more than you could do with a laser printer but even a very cheap printer costs more than the combined cost of what I'm likely to ever print again. If my prediction is wrong and I find myself printing vast amounts of things I can buy a printer and eat loss of a few bucks. Feels good to have one less "thing" too.
