My current HP support “driverless” printing with all the smarts on the
printer.  All the devices I list above just discover it on the network
and print without installing additional software.  A previous DeskJet
became trash when HP didn’t update the drivers to support the latest
MacOS.  Well, that and the clogged nozzles.

I also had a Lexmark that died after only 8 years of light home use.
I hope the current LaserJet lasts as long as the previous ones.
