The solution is to just buy a cheap Brother mono laser printer.

If you're extra lucky, it'll still be running on the original included demo toner cartridge.

I have a brother multifuction laser. From a thrift store. 6 years so far on a 3rd party XL toner...

I've spent more on paper than the printer+toner
