This article was published today on the ghacks.net website:Epson announces end of laser printer production

The first paragraph states:
Japanese-based company Epson announced plans to end the production of laser printers by 2026.
The company cites sustainability reasons for the decision, claiming that ink printers use less energy and consumable parts.

If you think that won't affect use of your current laser printer, you may be more concerned by this part of the article:
Epson . . . has been in the news lately regarding the deliberate 'bricking' of customer printers.
Customers discovered that they could not use the Epson ink printer anymore.

If, like me, you have an Epson laser printer, I recommend you read this article
In fact, it is worth reading anyway, as it seems likely other manufacturers will soon follow likewise
