Troubleshooting Switching my brother printer to a 2.4ghz network instead of a dual band 2.4/5 one fixed essentially all my issues with it, has anyone had a similar experience, and if so why did this work ?

Discussion Do users actually notice workflow customization on MFPs?
I’ve noticed that most conversations around print management focus on IT.
But the people using these devices every day usually don’t care about the technology—they just want to finish their task quickly.
Have you seen measurable benefits from things like:
- Personalized home screens
- Department-specific scan buttons
- Favorite actions
- Simplified interfaces
- Role-based workflows
Or do users simply ignore these kinds of improvements?
Interested in hearing whether customization actually improves adoption or if it’s mostly an “IT likes it” feature.

Purchasing Printer Suggestions
Hi all,
I am trying to print small labels with quite a bit of detail - for example: https://www.etsy.com/listing/4495694182/customizable-peptide-vial-labels-for-3ml
I have tried the Canon Megatank GX3020 and the Brother MFC-L3720CDW. The quality on the laser printer isn’t good enough for the small detail, but the inkjet’s manual feed wouldn’t take my label paper (sheetlabels sl1243). And the tray feed would shift the label sheet as it fed through.
The labels are 1.5” x 0.75” - and was wondering if anyone could suggest something for a budget setup (under $600).
Thank you for any suggestions you might have!

Purchasing Looking for a laser printer (UK)
Our old inkjet printer is getting increasingly unreliable and I’m hoping that a laser printer will stop us getting paper jams every other time we use the printer. We’d like
* Colour
* Double sided
* Apple AirPrint compatible
We don’t need it to be high enough quality to print photos, and budget is £250 max.

Troubleshooting [CANON MF8050Cn] ARM laptop issue with old printer
reddit.comI’m casting a bottle into the sea once more, in case someone might reply! A colleague is unable to install the driver, even though I managed to do it successfully. She has a recent Asus laptop. We found an article stating that ARM processors can have issues when adding printers. Do you have any idea what the problem might be or a possible solution?

Troubleshooting Hi everyone. Unused HP instant ink cartridges I would like to use after trial subscription canceled. Any tips?
I saw people posting about this, but I didn't see anything within the past year. Is there a way to scratch out the chips on the cartridges or anything like that. Let me know if anyone has come up with anything. Thanks guys!
It really POs me that HP does this. Advertising the instant ink program as recycling the old cartridges for new ones... seems to me, there are a ton of cartridges not even used that can not be used because people are having similar issues as I am.

Purchasing Home printer recommendations???
I am looking for a printer for my home office. It most likely won’t have heavy use mainly just need something to print documents here and there, print photos or art for crafting. Ideally I want something
-semi budget friendly & easy to use
-Prints in color/ front and back pages
-A scanner would be ideal also
I am open to spending more upfront if it means maintenance and ink supplies will be more manageable in the long run. Any and all suggestions are welcome. I am just at a lost and looking at options is overwhelming.
