I transferred some money to my Bangkok Bank this morning. Surprisingly the transfer was completed in seconds. Previously for Kasaikorn bank it was instant and Bangkok Bank it was next day or sometimes two days. -

This appears to be a 1990s Nissan Sunny sedan, also sold in some markets as the Nissan Sentra or Tsuru. The front grille, headlamp shape and body profile match the B13 generation very closely. Most likely year range: Approximately 1990–1993 for the original B13 design. Based on the grille and front bumper styling, I’d estimate around 1991–1992. The car in your photo has had heavy body filler/primer work and missing badges, so an exact trim level is difficult to identify from the image alone. The Thai registration plate and signs also suggest it’s in Thailand, where these cars were very common taxis and family saloons in the 1990s. The above is per Chat GPT. -

I finally chose a brother DCP-L2660DW, which was delivered by Amazon, yesterday. I have used it a little yesterday and this morning; so far so good. The instructions were very minimalistic and it took some time to set up, however I now have it so that I can print from my computer, MacBook, iPhone and iPads and also scan document to all of them. Thanks for the comments above. The jury is still out on using replacement third party toners; my understanding is that brother have installed a chip on the toner cartridge which prevents or makes it difficult to use third part cartridges. For the amount of printing I do, hopefully I will not have to address that issue for some time. I like @Nightcrawler's idea of removing ink jet cartridges from the printer, placing them in sealed plastic bags and keeping them in the fridge.

For many years I have used inkjet colour printers. I do not print frequently and do not print colour photographs. The pricing structure of inkjet printers appears to be to sell the printer at a low cost and make profits on the high price of ink cartridges. My main issue is that because I do not print frequently, rather than using all the ink in the cartridges I find that it dries around the cartridge heads rendering them unusable and necessitating replacement. I have been considering black and white laser printers. I do not require colour and would find a scanner incorporated into the printer useful. Replacement toner cartridges do not seem excessively expensive however I am concerned that after a few years when new models are released replacement toner cartridges may become unavailable. Does anyone have any experience in this area?
