Agreed, for some reason it is difficult to find a printer that works right out of the box when connected to wifi. Either there is an issue with printing from iphones, or Google school accounts, or Chrome, or whatever. And of course very difficult to find timely, competent tech support via phone or chat.
My Dell has started to flip false error messages that require a reboot to clear. I guess the old wisdom holds about not investing in a high priced printer as it is destined to become e-waste just like the cheap ones. That said I think the upgrade to laser is worth the money, despite the overpriced ink.
