If you get a used one, might not be that bad.

But a consumer Brother is probably the way to go. Always search the model number and see what people say.

My $100 brother laser printer I bought 6 months ago has printed everything I asked (dozens and dozens of pages) from Windows, Linux (well supported linux drivers!) and our families mix of apple and android phones.
I have a similar story about mine, but it’s nearing seven years old and just keeps doing what it does.

It doesn’t even have WiFi or AirPrint, but brother has an app that can print to it when you’re on the same network with an iPhone, which is surprisingly convenient.

Brother is pretty much the only printer brand I still trust. So far, no bullshit of any kind.
Mine died after printing three pages so your mileage may vary.
