Brother MFC (workgroup class) printer: 10+ years (>50K pages printed)

Just about every disk has been upgraded (sometimes I used the old drive for Swap (VM) service)
I keep old working parts until I have nothing left that they can be used with (ISA bus anyone?, SCSI 1, 14 pin RAM )
Not Computers, but electronics still in service:
My Main speakers on both Home theater rigs were bought 1960's, early 70's
Turntable, (quad) Open reel tape: 70's
Laser player, FM Tuner: 80's
