    I print/scan quite often for my work needs and i just love the way how Ubuntu and my printer work without installing any additional driver or stuff like that.

    I hate printing but I have to do it. Ex: business checks to the IRS, no way they get my bank account info. Also- insurance cards.
    A good OS is one that's actually OS.

    Of course? I have to print heaps of things for school. And when I am at home I need to print too.

    The last thing I printed at home was concert tickets, last year.

    At work, I have to print and file every piece of correspondence.

    Save the trees and get yourself a smart phone and/or tablet.

    People who print to paper are still living in the 90's

    nope, unless a pdf printer counts as a printer then i print a little
    i print receipts if i need them for a RMA or a rebate (which is rare since i am stingy)

    I have a small laser printer I bought about 3 years ago and have used maybe twice. I fire it up occasionally so that my cat can chase the paper.

    I haven't printed anything that required the use of the printing drivers in a long time. At my high school we can print from our devices via a webpage making the drivers useless.

    Well ..For photos it's cheaper and higher quality to use Boots, or snapfish etc... But my daughter uses the printer for her schoolwork and I use it to print off guitar tabs to use when in my lorry.

    At home, we're completely paperless, except for federal and state taxes, which work out better for us to do manually and mail in our situation. Other than that, everything is scanned or electronic. We haven't used our personal printer for a very long time, other than for taxes. We just look at all of our pictures on our phones, computers, and tablets.

    For business, we're almost completely paperless, other than some tax forms, and things like expense reports for meetings. I never have to file any paper, though. I used to print my speaking notes, but I use my tablet for that now. Since I got my tablet, the printer doesn't get used much.
