The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Also note that printers come with a smaller cartridge. Buying another printer isn't cheaper, even if it costs less.
This is true, and yet somehow when I buy the "XL" sized cartridges they don't feel like they lasted much longer than the "S" size that came with it.
it is if you only print rarely
The key is to buy a brother laser printer
It’s black and white but most people rarely have a need for color. Meanwhile, the toner doesn’t dry out like an inkjet printer will
You buy that one $150 inkjet printer and you’re set.
Swear to god old inkjet printer don't let the ink dry out. My old HP printer works fine with refills and I print like 3-4 times each year. Never had any ink dry out. I'm convinced they purposefully made later printers dry it out on purpose. Problem is that "later" was like 15 years ago or smth.
I bought a secondhand Brother printer from ~20 years ago for $20, with toner and drum all set, and it works flawlessly on modern systems. They even still keep the official page with the drivers and the stock of replacement parts is readily available should I ever need them.
My only regret about buying a brother laser printer is that I didn't get one much sooner. I love it!
