BTW, I've had my Brother laser MFP for 11 years and still on the original toner.

Brother, you just described why I bought a toner based printer. The ink is cheap AF, doesn't dry out, doesn't require frequent test pages, doesn't brick if I disable the ink subscription because I don't print that much, the drivers are all released GPL by the printer company, and it can just sit on a shelf I wasn't using anyway. I haven't looked at it in weeks and as an added bonus I dropped the print contrast to increase the longevity of the toner cartridge.
