Make sure its a laser
I second this. If you're only printing occasionally, ink tends to dry out, while toner will still be good.
I bought my black and white brother laser printer in 2018. I'm still using the same printer and the sample toner it came with in 2024. Literally zero issues ever, still prints fantastically. I just send it a print job once every 3-4 months and get a paper out of it with no fuss.
I've been using the same Brother MFC from the late 2009. The toner is from at least 2013 as that is when my ex left it behind. It still works wonders for the 10 pages or so I print a year.
