depends on your needs... both brands got a wide variety...

For a laser printer, the consumables to replace are toner and drum. For Brother, those are 2 separate items, and the rate of consumption is different. For Canon, most of their printer has a combo toner cum drum.

So for me, I would choose Canon as I only need to remember to buy and replace the toner-cum-drum (1 item). But they are more expensive (compared to Brother) but easier to maintain as I only need to buy 1 item instead of the toner and drum separately.

Dude, I don't think all canon models have a toner-cum-drum (1 item)? Example: https://www.courts.com.sg/canon-mf113w-compact-wifi-laser-aio-printer-print-scan-copy-ip144072

This item has a consumable of
- 049 Drum
- 047 Toner

Drum usually can outlast a few toner cartridges, can save abit of money in long run

All scan are done via phone app. Laser, /blackwhite, at $120
