Take a seat

If you will be using your new chair for multiple hours a day, make sure to get an ergonomic office chair to prevent unnecessary strain.
Comfort, all day long
Office furniture that is the proper size and height makes a big difference. When shopping for chairs, the height of the seat should be adjustable so that the user’s feet can sit flat on the floor with their knees at right angles. Likewise, the accompanying office desk should be at a height where the users’ elbows can sit comfortably at right angles at their sides while typing or writing. Browse our selection to find the combination that’s right for you. If size if a concern, check out our big & tall chairs which can support up to 500lbs.

Show seasonal allergies who’s boss
If you suffer from seasonal allergies, now is when they are at their worst. Stock up on allergy season’s most important products to keep your home, classroom, and office allergen-free. Start with an air purifier to strip the air of allergens like pollen and pet dander and replace existing air filters for improved air quality. Frequently dust, wipe down hard surfaces, and vacuum carpets and furniture to help eliminate pollen tracked in from outside and dander left behind by pets. When leaving the house, check the pollen count and bring a face mask to help filter the air you breath outside.
No matter what you do, it’s unlikely that the symptoms of seasonal allergies can be avoided entirely. Make sure to have over-the-counter cold and allergy medications on hand to battle symptoms, and stock up on facial tissues so you’ll always have one available when you need them.
Spring (Cleaning) is in the air
Spring cleaning and decluttering is a tradition meant to refresh our spaces for the year ahead. Staples has everything you need to clear out the clutter, store and organize your belongings, and all the right cleaning supplies.
Clear out the clutter
Start by preparing a checklist and make sure you have all the necessary supplies. Use storage bins and a label maker to make sorting and organizing easier. Prepare extra boxes for donations and trash bags for the things you no longer need. Look for decorative boxes & baskets that will compliment your home’s décor and use them to organize. You can also use closet organizers and storage drawers anywhere they are needed.
Start with the basics
An all-purpose cleaner, cleaning brush and microfiber cloths will clean most surfaces. Use a duster to remove unwanted dirt and furniture polish to revitalize wood surfaces. Upgrade your broom, dustpan, wet mop, and vacuum to make cleaning any type of flooring a breeze.
The nitty gritty
Spring cleaning doesn’t stop there. There’s so much you can do to reset your home:
- Improve air quality and eliminate pollen and pet dander with a new air purifier and an air freshener with a scent you love.
- On a sunny day, take the opportunity to clean your windows – you’ll need glass cleaner, a bucket, a squeegee, and paper towels.
- Have a step stool or ladder on hand to access hard-to-reach places like the tops of cabinets and overhead lighting.
- Replace broken light bulbs and check the batteries in your smoke detectors.
- Use drain cleaner to clear up sink and bathtub drains.

Brother Vs. HP Laser Printers | Small Business
By Geoff Whiting
Quality laser printers are a necessity for home offices and businesses for managing your documents and printing needs. Brother and HP are two of the more popular laser printer brands, and it helps to compare models and features if you’re looking into purchasing a laser printer. While both create a range of printers to fit all of your needs, the debate has evolved to a preference between saving time or money.
Types of Laser Printers
-
When looking for your next laser printer, part of the evaluation is determined on your needs. Laser printers are often defined by their dpi, or how many dots per inch they can produce, ranging from 300 to 2,400. Typically a higher dpi produces a better quality image. Laser printers are also differentiated by their ability to print photos and what type of networking they support. Laser printers listed as “all-in-one” let you scan, copy, print and fax from the same machine. Brother and HP create models that support all of these functions.
Where Brother Benefits
-
Brother printers tend to be a little more work but make up for it with long-run savings. Toner replacements for Brother models are typically cheaper than its competitors, including HP, but part of this comes from toner and drum replacements that are more complex. These need to be properly installed and are at more risk of damage than traditional cartridges, used by HP, but they can print more than 7,000 pages, reducing your replacement cost over time.
Brother printers also have high printing speeds, but they take a few seconds to warm up and reach this max speed.
HP’s Speedy Goods
-
HP gets strong marks for quick printing and low-power use. The company routinely compares its models to Brother printers and shows how quickly it can come out of a standby mode and start printing. For example, HP LaserJet Pro 200 Color M251 can print four pages before comparable Brother models are done warming up. HP printers also have lower power consumption than most of their competitors, including Brother. HP also claims that Brother printers are prone to smudging because they don’t use regular replacement cartridges like HP printers.
Owner Comparisons
-
Noise, volume and service are big issues for managing your printer needs. PCWorld has created a large survey getting consumer reactions for these features, and HP and Brother have mixed scores. Based on owner opinions, Brothers are reliable throughout their lifecycle, while HP was typically viewed as worse than average for reliability.
Neither scored very well for service, but Brother barely edged out HP in overall support and problem resolution. Brother owners are more satisfied in their choice as a whole, but models vary widely with supported features so it’s best to read specific reviews about models you’re considering.
Making Your Choice
-
Both HP and Brother create high-quality printers, so you’re unlikely to be disappointed with whichever you choose. Brother printers can be a larger initial cost but may be cheaper in the long run if you consistently print large jobs. HP provides better ease-of-use and requires you to do less to keep your printer running, taking up less time. With similar feature sets the choice may be about what’s more important to you, saving time with HP or saving money with Brother.

An old laser “friend” is better than two new ones or a shorter life of new cartridges and printers / Habr
In this article I will share my thoughts on why “eternal” printers are not made. As well as the experience of using two models of printers that have served me faithfully for many years.
Why is it not profitable for manufacturers to make reliable office equipment?
❯ History
It all started in 1924, when lamp manufacturers, among which were Osram, Philips, General Electric, organized the Phoebus cartel (“Phoebus”) and agreed to artificially limit the life of light bulbs by reducing the quality of the materials used. The conspiracy was revealed at 1942 year.
“Centenary lamp”, which is listed in the Guinness Book of Records
An incandescent light bulb that has been burning since 1901 in Livermore, California.
Source
The American Bernard London was the first to describe the idea of ”Planned Aging” in his book “The End of the Depression through Planned Aging”, 1932.
The idea described in the book is simple. A product with a short shelf life encourages the consumer to make a repeat purchase.
Two ways to limit the service life can be distinguished:
- Technical limitation, the product breaks down at the scheduled time, technical support or the release of components and consumables is terminated.
- Marketing tools*, making the product not fashionable, the most striking example: the iPhone smartphone.
* The book “The System of Things” by the French sociologist and philosopher Jean Baudrillard.
In 2022, another tool for restricting exploitation appeared – “sanctions”.
The departure of the largest printer manufacturers from Russia led to a redistribution of the market.
In 2021, the Russian market of HP vs Pantum printers:
- HP (USA) — 36%
- Pantum (China) – 16%
In 2022, the Russian printer market has changed:
- Pantum (China) — 67%
- HP (USA) – 12%
❯ Printers
1843 – the appearance of the idea of a printer by Charles Babbage, only 150 years later, according to his drawings, a printer weighing 5 tons was reproduced.
1964 – the first dot matrix printer, Seiko Epson Corporation pioneered the concept of dot matrix printing in a device.
EP-101 Printer
1978 – the first laser printer, full duplex Xerox 9700 printed 120 pages per minute. In 2023, the Xerox 9700 remains one of the fastest printers in the world.
In the 70s, the price of the Xerox 9700 was 350,000 USD.

❯ My printers
When choosing a printer for work, it was based on two parameters – a resource and maintainability.
I use HP LaserJet M1005 MFP at home.
Purchased in 2007.
2023, in excellent working condition. For all the time there was one repair – the children threw a coin. The result is a gear replacement. There were no other problems.
The weak point of this MFP is the scanner, it copes with any tasks for the home, it will not last long in the office with a large amount of scanning.
A distinctive feature of this model is good maintainability.

In the office I use a KYOCERA ECOSYS P2135dn laser printer.
One of the most reliable printers I know. It has long been a rule – “a replacement fund of printers.” This allows you not to stop work processes in the company.
This is how replacement printers are stored.
An example of how easy it is to repair ECOSYS P2135dn.

The drum is repairable, except in cases of physical destruction.

If you compare KYOCERA ECOSYS P2135dn and KYOCERA ECOSYS P2235dn, you will see what the manufacturer has changed in the new model!
The manufacturer increased the cost of the new model and reduced the amount of toner, as a result, the cartridge lasts for 3000 pages of printing.
In order to further reduce the service life, the manufacturer KYOCERA has changed the design of the thermal unit.
The ECOSYS P2135dn uses a 100,000 page yield Teflon roller, as shown in the video above, it is easy to change. To reduce the life of the printer in the ECOSYS P2235dn model, the Teflon roller was replaced with thermal film, the resource of the entire thermal unit (oven) decreased to 70,000 pages. The first time it is possible to repair the ECOSYS P2235dn stove, but the next time it is necessary to completely replace the thermal unit (stove).
The production of plastic parts does not stand still, you can plan a change in properties, and after a few years, under load, a penny gear begins to collapse. The problem is 5 kopecks, and the printer becomes unusable.
Or the use of unpackaged “drop” microcircuits in new technology. A droplet microcircuit is almost impossible to solder.
It’s good that so far KYOCERA has not encountered such problems and it pleases.
I decided the following for myself, as long as you can buy live used KYOCERA ECOSYS P2135dn, and as long as there are repair kits for reliable old models, I will not switch to new printers.
Now a used KYOCERA ECOSYS P2135dn printer in good condition can be bought from 10,000 to 12,000 rubles.
P. S. The old laser “friend” KYOCERA ECOSYS P2135dn is better than the new two KYOCERA ECOSYS P2235dn.
Thank you for reading.
