    Yeah, wireless printers can eat my refuse. I just spent a fruitless hour fixing my neighbours printer. Their crime? Restarting the router spooked the printer connection to the network. Shit system integration and poor documentation make this job needlessly painful.

      I have a wireless Canon. Has worked flawlessly for years. Never had any issues. Replace the ink every now and again and it keeps chugging.

        I believe you. We can make wireless stuff work if we really want to. My Bluetooth headset links with the phone perfectly every time. Attempt the same trick with Teams on a PC, forget about it. Wifi generally seems quite solid these days but if I get a choice I will use ethernet. It would have to be really bad to warrant going back to wired headphones but with a printer, meh. I don’t walk around my house with it and run a few copies from the kitchen.

          Partner hasn’t had issues either actually. Normally I’m in full agreeance about printers, and wifi printers. But this one has been solid.
