Yup, I’ve had a previous model (HL-2170W) since like 2006. The nic is dying now, but the printer works fine.

Brother printers are the only brand anyone should buy.

Same, and the only maintenance I’ve ever needed for mine is putting paper in it

Yeah, to be fair I need to print something like once a year. But every time I’m amazed that it just works.
