I work from home and print a lot of UPS labels. For personal use I print targets and lots of misc. stuff. Nice to have sort of thing.

Also, it's a B&W laser, and that's a world of difference from inkjet.

I still wouldn't take it on a subscription basis. My last home Laser lasted me ~15 years till the drivers just weren't there anymore and I was mostly using it as a stand to hold other crap on top of it.

My 1996 Lexmark laser just died this year.

Oh no. Hell no not on a subscription.
