I haven't seen a roll-sheet in a non-thermal printer since the days of my Olivetti DM-100 dot matrix printer.
The problem is, what kind of cartridges will it use? Commercial cartridges (including refillable ones) are subject to obsolescence (they disappear from stores when they are no longer profirable).

Once you're there, work your way through the menus. You'll find a screen that shows which #printers are already installed and a screen that lets you install a new one. Once you've got one installed, Cups can send it a test page; that confirms that the physical connection is good and you have the right driver. (Choosing the right driver isn't especially easy, so you may need to resort to trial and error.)
I think Cups lets you set your chosen printer as the default, so do that.
Then try to print a few words from a word processor or Web browser.
Good luck!
This is probably old hat for the computer heads, but today I learned that a catalyst for the GNU General Public License was a broken, closed-source Xerox laser printer at MIT. π¨οΈ
As the winds of change blow around your computer, take comfort that printers have always sucked and will suck for your grand kids too.

Couple days ago I changed up my WIFI config. No new equipment: just refreshing settings, changing defaults and the password, etc. Eventually got through updating all my devices that connect.
EXCEPT... my 2 Brother printers. Forgot about them, because honestly I rarely print anything these days (how 'bout you)?
Until I needed to print a couple items to mail... and then....
