> In Japan you can print via USB stick, sd-card, wifi, cloud, etc at pretty much every convenience store

So you walk 1 minute to the convenience store, spend a minute fiddling with the plug, another few trying to go through the menu. Finally get your print, and walk a minute back. Say it takes 10 minutes total.

Meanwhile I just press print and in less than 10s my printout is on my desk.

I can see why some people don’t need a printer, but I need one often enough that walking to the conbini and doing that dance is a major PITA.

Inkjet printers are not reliable well because sometimes ink clogging or something bad is happen if I don't use frequently. Using printers in convenience store is no hassle.

Personally nearest convenience store is not near so I have an inkjet printer.
