Why is that? Usually I read about brother laser printers being the decent non-enshittified ones. I‘ve had one for half a year now and it’s fine so far.
But what about all the other phantom functions? Did you ever ask it to print something and it wouldn’t, and then 3 months later randomly in the middle of the night it finally printed that thing you wanted 3 months ago? It did that to me several times and I was sick of its shit and it did a lot of other insane things too. It was also one of those things that required Wi-Fi though I have no idea why it wouldn’t work without Wi-Fi, and its connectivity was always glitching, which interfered with its ability to print at all. I’m grateful for Costco’s generous return policy.
I returned my brother laser printer to Costco in 2019. I will never buy a printer ever again.

Go back and read that cartoon up there. That’s why. All printers have become enshittified. Brother is no exception.
I have a brother colour laser printer that’s been complaining about being low on magenta for like… a year now. Still prints black and white just fine.

No, it never did anything like that. It also works just fine without wifi using a USB connection.
Did you buy an inkjet and expect it to be amazing and last for ever because it was a Brother printer?
Yeah I don’t think a B&W printer will complain about being out of a colour
It was a color laser printer. I had it for less than a year.
