Wireless printers are the present and (near) future.

No more must you blindly scramble behind the desk with a disappointingly-short wire, desperately hoping you find the back of the computer while your back strains under the pressure of the office gymnastics you’re attempting. Wireless printers are now so sophisticated, so quick, and so easy to set up, that fiddly wires are, for many, now a thing of the past. There’s still room for the printer, then, but it looks like time’s up for the wired variety. In fact, a study by Cartridge World in 2021 showed that 20 per cent of people are using their printer more now than pre-pandemic, and half of those asked use their trusty home printer at least weekly.

As such, the best home printersare still a valuable tool, judging by the upturn in usage.Īs people continue to move into a more hybrid way of working, isolated from the ubiquitous office printer, the need for rapid prints next to the sofa has risen. It might seem like everything is online these days, but despite what tablets and smartphones would have you believe, the world isn’t quite ready to get rid of paper.
