Do you have a printer at home?

There was a time when we would have multiple printers in our houses (we still have two, but one is a high volume printer for my wife). Do you still have a printer in your house?

I don't really understand why it might be a trend to NOT have one as you mention in a comment. Surely there is often a need for one.

@DocAndersen I think maybe the situation is a bit different here with stores not being so convenient for a lot of people.

Lots of people now simply go to the office supply store to print.

@ThreeTeddies I worked with a person from HP once who said they made more on ink than on printers nearly 3 to 1

@janethwayne I find mine to be very useful. The only drawback is that the ink cartridges cost almost as much as the printer!

@DocAndersen The two lasers are on our home network. The black and white toner is a lot cheaper, we use it when we need to print many pages.

we can't print on ours anymore because there's something wrong with the printer head, but we can still use it to scan documents.

My life would come to a complete stop if I didn't have my printer. How can one exist without it?

I have a Canon printer (the second one I've owned). It's good for printing documents but not so good with photographs

I don't have one, I don't have any personal stuff that needs printing at home. If ever there are things that need to be printed I can have them printed in the office.
