I assume that due to your location, taking a flash drive to a Kinko's, etc. is not an option.

It would be an option thought the local public library has better parking. I looking for the convenience of not having to drive somewhere to print a single page. Due to mobility issues it can get complicated ;}


With such low usage, I think you would be better served by a laser printer.  Perhaps inkjet printers have improved, but anecdotally, it seems that inkjet heads don't last very long if they're not being used regularly.

Laser printer would be nice. I will print only text and prefer B&W over color anytime.


You can likely find a relatively compact monochrome laser printer,

I may be dating myself but I assumed "laser" and "compact" were mutually exclusive.

... but I doubt you'll find a battery powered laser printer.

Wall warts are fine.
