I have a printer in my home office only because of work.

For work we use QuickBooks Enterprise and it’s oriented to paper checks.

More interesting, some tasks are _faster_ when you use a paper print. I’m thinking of processing payrolls. You should verify before authorizing the processor to complete the run. I prefer to not waste paper and routinely verify the PDF on screen. But if things go sideways and I’m under pressure, a hard copy is the way to go.

Finally, I do my own vehicle maintenance, and a hard copy of the service manual page is good to have on hand.

I could go to Staples for the service manual pages, but for work that’s just a waste of time.
