RicardusI asked this once before, but does anyone out there have a laser printer that can accept things like Avery labels? I need a few stickers made.
ResearchBuzz: FirehoseMashable: HP announces a security flaw (and fix) for many laser printers. “HP published a security update on its website confirming that there are three separate security flaws affecting several models of laser printers. According to HP, certain LaserJet printers ‘may potentially be vulnerable to Remote Code Execution and Elevation of Privilege when processing a PostScript print job.'”

You don't hate #Printers, but #InkjetPrinters!
- Because #InkCartridges are the #scam...
"#LaserPrinters" (or rather #LED-Printers) don't have that issue...
- Get yourself a #surplus'd old #Xerox #WorkCentre and you'll stick with it for decades to come...
You Know What’s BS!? Printers
@threetails I think #juicero didn't die from that alone.
It's exceessive #DRM and absurd pricing including artificially shortened livespan of the consumeables as well as the pulic roasting by #Bloomberg AND it's absurdly, extremely, expensive machining that'll make aerospace engineers orgasm amidst it's absurd tightness with like guide pins so precise they are basically airtight...
- This is machine was introduced at $700 MSRP and just by the parts alone must cost at least > €1k just in machining time alone!
OFC like with #GameConsoles up the 7th generation it was desined as "Razor and Blades model" so that the fact that said juice packs are only sold as subscriptions and used DRM was intended to ROI within like a year or two, and with the high price tag of the machine and subscription they propably wanted to release a premium product since the average #WageWorker can't afford to spend $2k+ per year just on fruit juice alone!
- I think that they could've built something better and simpler with like a roller and a flat surface for way less money as a mass product or instead of generating a shitload of plastic to burn away, just build an easy-to-clean, commercial-grade juicer with like self-cleaning tech built in so it's easier for any café or bar to offer freshly pressed juice.
But that doesn't mean one would get like #subscription revenue unless it was a defectively designed product like the Ice Cream Machines at McDonald's USA with #AntiRepairDesign and nonsensical #UI & #UX instead of simple output (like the Ice cream machines in the EU and espechally Germany spit out on their LCDs) saying what's wrong or what the status is....
#LateStageCapitalism and #Enshittification is what juicero embodies, because the core product could've been a success with less #greed and more reasonable price and without DRM bs, because the core idea would make it a very clean, simple and accessible way to make fresh juice as they did in fact just bag up fruit to seeze.
It's just that the Enshittification turned it into a sort-of #SeeFood repitch at best and noone told the Engineers that this machine has to be sold at a reasonable price and with reasonable profit out of the gate, so they violated every rule in the book to make this a good product.
- So not only does it come with an insultingly high price tag and burns #VCmoney faster than the #EvilCorp CTO but unlike the expensive proprietary razor blades like that Gilette stuff they didn't even deliver a good combo result at all.
This was an avoidable trash fire as they never sold the packs cheap in groceries nor the machine at an absurdly cheap price.
- Kinda like how inkjet printers make money (which should be outlawed due to them being #ManufacturedEwaste cuz unlike "#LaserPrinters" they don't last nor offer convenience )!
How to blow $120 MILLION DOLLARS in one year!

I've worked in offices where I had to deal with photocopying machines and toners. I'm not a fan of toners. And they're not cheap. I also don't want to add to my list of health concerns. 😕
"#LaserPrinters use toner, which is a microscopic powder* containing plastics*, colorants, and other chemicals. These particles can become airborne* and contribute to indoor* air pollution*. Breathing in toner particles can be a concern..."
@jonyoder @royal
Just black? Color is good to have, me thinks. 🤔
I did some reading and seems to me #inkjet is more practical for home* use (for my purpose) -- i.e. only a few prints now and then. I've read too that it's better for #photo printing -- not vital since I don't need fancy equipment but I'd like it to be a good all-around* #printer. Also, I see that #LaserPrinters that can scan/copy are huuuge! 😕
We do have #Brother here. 😃👍

Yeah, definitely stay away from ink spitters. They just don't provide good value compared to laser printers.
I once bought a perfectly acceptable brand new small laser printer for $50. To me, that was when the laser printer market hit it's peak.
That was a Samsung, and I had bought a few other Samsung laser printers (some introduced at $400 and dropped to $180). Unfortunately for consumers, HP bought Samsung's printer division and turned it into crap.
The last printer I considered buying was a Fuji-Xerox. That was for an employer that had an $800 all-in-one that was reaching end-of-life. For $3000, I could have assembled a unit that would have allowed the company to bring its outsourced document production in house and add OCR capability to scan hardcopy archives that were piling up. (They instead spent more to lease an older machine that took up more of the already-cramped office.)
❌ DittoI tried to setup a #cups #raspberrypi #homeserver to serve my #canon #laserprinters for easy discoverability, as well as simplifying driver installation.
Unfortunately, while the #colorprinter has an #arm driver for #linux , the #blackandwhiteprinter doesn't.
For now, I setup an #lxd #vm on my #intelnuc to act as the #printserver instead, and it works perfectly.
I'd like to also emulate #amd64 on #qemu on #raspi for directly serving cups from an #amd64 #VM from #raspi .
