Best budget printer for printing out legal binding documents in black and white.
You can pick up a Brother Monochrome Laser with Duplex Printing for around $135 on Amazon. I’ve had mine (an older model) since 2015. It’s a real workhorse! I print probably 15 to 25 sheets per day every day and I think I’ve had fewer than a dozen paper jams in all of these years. I buy generic toner cartridges ($20 for two) and they last forever. I go through about 4 per year. I have color laser printers, inkjet printers, and thermal printers and they’re all fussy in one way or another. I’m doing some form of maintenance on at least one of those each day so it’s nice to have one printer that I honestly don’t have to think about.

The best printer for home use to buy? What do you recommend right now?
I have a brother lazerjet and love it. My ink printer would always dry out if I didn’t print for a month or two and it took a good hour just to get it going.

Any Good Printer For Home Use?
This is it, but I'll add don't buy a new one. Get a refurbished one with only limited Wi-Fi capabilities. I have a brother 2280dw. I bought mine used over 10 years ago. And it still works great, I've had it repaired once which was absolutely worth the cost. It can't do fancy airprint, but it does have Wi-Fi printing.
