1 I have an HP inkjet printer, which I bought very cheaply on sale.
2 It works well enough, but I rarely use it
3 -- it mb 12 mth between prints -- & the ink cartridge dries up.
4
5 Probably, what I need is a laser printer, as IIRC toner doesn't dry up.
6 There's a printer available at my usual store (Canada Computers) as below.
7
8 Can anyone advise me (1) whether I'm correct re ink/toner drying up,
9 (2) whether there's any reason to beware of the Brother model below
10 & (3) if I buy it, how to I install the driver ?
11 -- I'm used to using Hplip & Brother drivers may need a different method.
