Who still owns printers and fax machines?

[Alex]

Do you think printers and fax machines are gadgets of the past now? Does anybody still own their printer or fax machine, and how regularly is it used? I don't own a printer; I got rid of mine a year or two ago. If I need to print something, I'll head to the library and pay for printing. It's sporadic as most things can be electronically signed or viewed as a PDF now.

I still have a laser printer in the home office it an old HP, we have one kid still in high school that does use it for projects but other than that I can't remember the last time I used it, the best thing about keeping an old laser printer is the ink will last a very long time.

I have one but my family has had a hard time getting it going. Well, it's just a lot easier to use a library's stuff for a small fee. Nonetheless, though, it is cool to have a printer to make family pictures.

I don't have any of those lol.....But in my country, you can't go into any printing business shop without seeing those printing equipments. Infact, up till today, that's what they are still using.

Printing stuff seemed more fascinating in times past. However, I could be wrong, but it seems to have lost the attraction. Well, most people just view photos and documents on a screen it seems (cellphones, tablets, desktops etc.).

Now, a fax machine is something only useful to a business, unless you need that occasional way to get a refund from a faraway business or pay off faraway police departments. However, a library fax can work just as well, but it's a bit pricey in my hometown at $4 for two pages going both ways.

A lot of my office work requires printing job, so I do have a laser printer at home and office.
