@Gregozor2121 ink printer is still better than old, loud needle printer. To clarify what printer she is comparing: old one = HP m602, new one = Thrumph Adler p-4531 dn.

@mintchase I suggested that idea, but somehow she thinks it's not good solution. At this point I lost faith in her to ask why.

@Demolishun Laser printers are designed for huge batches. That is why photocopiers use laser not ink (i know that they used laser way back before they had cameras but... still)
Ink is ready to go always but only if you can print every now and again (nozzles and ink drying off in them...)
I have a felling that they (industry) had been prefering dot matrix over ink too because of robustness but i need additional data to prove it.
But it makes sense imo, ink is cheap shit and for high loads, low maintenance dot matrix and lasers are the best.
To conclude: i dont see any problem using laser or dot matrix in a office when we talk about robustness, but that ink one might break soon (but some ink printer build back then were tanks! I still use my brother dcp 150c!
(not sure about the model,might check tommorow))
It was simple Tuesday morning, got to work, turned on laptop. And hell began. First call, my co worker asked me to come. Got shouted, why I bought this peace of shit printer. Why it's printing slow. Asked to bring back old one because it's faster. But before I switched printers. I got strange and funny question, "why paper comes out hotter from this printer and not from older one ", I became speechless, and left her without answer. Ok I changed printer. Went to take tea break(hate coffee). Got asked by same women to bring original power cord that was with printer, because that one connected somehow slowed printing speed. The fuck? Too hot paper, now power cord? Why? How? That was stupidest things I ever heard.
P.S Slow printing problem was with her computer, bad drivers, something wrong with computer or OS. Anyway I need to change her computer pretty soon anyway.
