Yup, I've had a previous model (HL-2170W) since like 2006. The nic is dying now, but the printer works fine.
Brother printers are the only brand anyone should buy.
Same, and the only maintenance I've ever needed for mine is putting paper in it
Hey, I had to change the toner in mine!... once... after like a decade.
Bought one used several years ago for $75 and it's still on the used starter toner.
The wired Nic on mine is dead, WiFi only now. one time modeled and 3d printed a part to fix the feeder. I will keep this fucker running forever.
Yeah, to be fair I need to print something like once a year. But every time I'm amazed that it just works.
