Cannot decide between multiple models, help appreciated

I need opinions to choose my new printer after retiring my old HP J6410.

I need to have at least a flatbed scanner to occasionally scan IDs, forms and physical receipts. Any other spec is a plus. Fax is unnecessary but if included, whatever. AirPrint and/or Wi-Fi printing is a must. Who needs cables for their home or small office use in big 2026?

My maximum budget is ≈ 300$ +-20$.

I do not print often, but I can change my printing habits to accommodate tank inkjet, preventing clogging if necessary.

I do not need to match my old printer by spec. I just need purchasing opinions. (All the prices are in dollars but bought outside US)

Canon GX3480 - Tank Inkjet with Duplex Printing ≈ 130$
Canon Maxify GX4040 - Tank Inkjet with ADF and Duplex ≈ 255$

HP Laserjet M141W - Laser with Flatbed Scanner ≈ 149$
Brother DCP - L1632W - Laser with Flatbed Scanner ≈ 200$
Brother MFC - L2806DW - Laser Multifunction - ≈ 308$

The models may seem confusing since brands add or exclude a number or a letter to differentiate a market from each other.

Thanks in advance!

Running Laser Printer from Ungrounded Outlet

Would I run into issues by running a laser printer from an ungrounded outlet? 220V standart European plug/outlet. AI says I shouldn’t because it imposes risk for the chips and the motherboard inside the Printer, says inkjet printers are much safer since they draw significantly less power.

Thanks in advance for your input!

120$ for MFC L2700DW, good deal?

Title. I'm in the market for a laser printer and decided to go with Brother. Since checking the second hand market, this one caught my eyes. The seller accepted my 120$ offer for it (initially it was 140)

https://imgur.com/a/KpvF7Wd

- 17700 pages printed in total.

- 7 toner and 1 drum replacement.

- 6 paper jams in total.

- Average printing density 4.6%

All and all seems reasonable with given stats of the printer. Only thing I'm worried about it being 10-12 years old machine.

Cheapest new L2806-DW is 335$ where I live and comes with 2 year distributor (Brother) warranty.

Is this a good deal?

Thanks in advance!

340$ MFC-L2806DW for 170$ Used. Am I missing something?

Title. The seller has no actual pictures of the said machine but claims it's been bought in 2023, no pictures about the actual total printed page count but claims it's around 300-ish while also saying it's been used in an office scenario.

Also the machine was listed for 225$ but the seller accepted my 170$ offer.

Feels like I'm getting baited lol. Either the machine is in rough condition or the machine is a lower gen (27xx). What's your opinion? Lack of information and the easy persuasion with the price rings my alarms.

Which printer is THE Price/Performance GOAT?

Hello everyone. Last week I retired my old HP Officejet J6410 and currently in market for a new/ second hand printer.

Budget: 300$ (50$ stretch if needed)

What I need: Primarily printing. Copier-Scanner appreciated (Would be nice if it has Wi-Fi printing)

My use case: Occasional invoice/ document printing for archive purposes. Rarely need color.

Brands: Brother/Xerox/Epson/Canon (No more HP with their scummy practices)

I would LOVE to hear your GOAT printer, even if it does not match with my needs.

Thanks in advance, god bless 🙏🏻

Before getting my Ultra 2 I had the SE first gen (44mm gps). My GF wasn't very fond of AW but agreed to give it a try with my old watch (not accepting the offer for a new one before trying). The watch is at 85% battery life.

I have already;

- Erased all content and settings and set it as a fresh watch
- Turned off ENM (noise measure), hand washing and hey siri constant listening
- Closed Background App Refresh
- Wake duration set to 15 sec, wake on wrist raise on
- Lowered brightness and currently on black-heavy watch face
- Set notification mirroring only for 3-4 apps

Am I missing something important that can extend the battery life in a meaningful way?

Any tips will be appreciated!
