They work better in Linux than Windows, not to mention backwards compatibility.
EDIT: I may be wrong about newest printer models, 2020 and above.
EDIT2: Hardware problems are an entirely different issue.

Stop printing.
Honestly who NEEDS a printer anymore? We've moved on from printing out driving directions from MapQuest and burning our own DVD collections. We should ditch home printers and only use online printing services whenever you want something physical so it's made nicely by someone who knows what they're doing.
Many people still use printers.
Yeah, he was basically telling them to stop, or maybe more generally he was telling them to take a look at whether they really need to print things.
It can still be nice to have one so you can print out more pages in parallel than you have space on your screen and using a pen to annotate a document.
A tablet with a stylus: im about to ruin this lemmitor’s whole career!
First time I've seen lemmitor.... Not sure if it's better or worse than lemming.....
Basically, I don't see any other reason, except for annotation.
You must be an executive with impeccable logic such as that.
