So new laser printer is great and far better than an inkjet.
My question is if I don't use it for several months is that going to cause me issues with printing like it would with an inkjet?

That's what I thought but I read things about humidity causing issues.

The lasers are generally a much better bet than inkjet. I've a mono that is a couple of years old and after moderate use still prints fine.

Used it 3 times so far, once on a windy day (when I could not have used my BBQ).
Easy to use, and the results have been great, nicely grilled. So yes, so far I'm pleased with it.
I have not tried using the smoker yet, thats on my to-do list.

The only potential issue with Laser Printers is heat.
They use heat to set the toner on the page, thats why if you get it on you when clearing a jam you wash in cold soapy water, so not to set it on you.

Weed killer refill, long nettle gloves and luggage tags.
There seems to be a change from Amazon for me lately I can order at a few mins before midnight and get my delivery the next day, normally I would have to have ordered alot earlier.

New chromebook. Lenovo IdeaPad 5
Took 15 minutes to set up and it feels like my old Acer on steroids, careering down hill with my foot pressing down hard on the accelerator.

Re: What have you just bought?
iPad 10th gen (2022 model) - price just dropped 27% off, and it’s to replace SWMBO’s 2016 iPad which is no longer capable of receiving OS updates, and is running very slow…
