Nobody listens to him. But he was right all along.

And it's extremely easy. Upload the PDF, wait for your mail. Thanks. The last time I needed something printed in colour was years ago, and the money and hassle I saved myself by buying a monochrome laser printer isn't offset by this one print job I had to pay for.
I have even gone one step further I don't have a printer at all. If I want anything printed, I will either do it when I'm at the office or get it printed by a stationary store for a small fee (like .05 USD per A4 page in local currency where I live).
I can count with one hand how many times I needed hard copies in the past couple of years.
Currently divorcing. Printer/scanner pays off 😞
I hate multifunction printers. They try to do everything but end up sucking at doing everything.
I ended up getting a separate, high speed Fujitsu scanner with built in auto file naming and OCR and it's been fantastic. I can just scan in all the things and shred them. Less paperwork cluttering the place.
That's rough. Good luck mate. I wish you'll come an emotionally lighter and happier person from the other side.
Thanks. I'm kinda ok, just alone. And it's a lot of paper.
