We bought one because we had had problems in the past with inkjet printers clogging, and knew we were going have to go 6 months at a time without using it. Laser printers normally can cope with this and so far it has, very well.Ok it's worth cleaning them, I don't tend to use laser printers
We also have a very light, very cheap, (£35, about as much as a set of inks), Canon printer, which actually scans and prints better then the Brother! It is small enough to fit into a fold up plastic crate which we use to transport stuff bewteen countries. So we move it from country to country to keep the inkjets clean.
(You are by now thinking we are bonkers, but there are things you do need to think about when alternating countries, the other choice would be to buy a laser printer for Frogland too.
We also transport a laptop too, which peeps probably think pretty normal.)

We did miss out on it once due to this.
So good on your missus!!

a) Go back and look again in the first place you checked and dismissed.Does anyone know where my small electrical screwdriver is. I’ve looked through every tool box
b) Forget it 'cos it will turn up as soon as you are not looking for it.
These are my two suggestions - learnt over many years of 'losing' things.

Or in our case (me and W) whenever she loses something I find it for her 90% of the time. She finds what I lost for me about 10% of the time.a) Go back and look again in the first place you checked and dismissed.
b) Forget it 'cos it will turn up as soon as you are not looking for it.

Just loosen nuts off a bit but not too much. lower it back to the ground, then shake the flip out of it. It should pop off!
Well it did when I last had to help a colleague change a wheel on a car park with no tools.
Wheel was stuck to the hub with corrosion. Ally wheel, steel hub, etc.
