i mean, yeah i have had a nice working brother printer for a few decades, but i got a library card too. My employer can afford 10 cents a page if they want me to print.

Having a home printer allows for easy printing of shipping labels, zines, letters, etc.

As for books, it can be useful for rarer books that a library may not have access to, though that is a bit more rare of a need.
