They work better in Linux than Windows, not to mention backwards compatibility.

EDIT: I may be wrong about newest printer models, 2020 and above.

EDIT2: Hardware problems are an entirely different issue.

    Atleast it was free? I did the same thing, took office salvage. I’ll be replacing it soon with a laser printer.

      a free printer is always awesome, but youll mostly spend money on ink anyway

        A free printer might be awesome if it’s laser…a free ink jet printer is like saying you got stabbed ‘for free’. I mean, yeah, it was free.
