My recommendation for everyone on printers is to buy the cheapest new one you can find them at the first problem trash it and buy a new one. They are made so poorly it's not worth the headache.

Buy a costumer-respecting printer. It's that simple.

I didn't buy it (yet), but I've heard that the Brother printer is good. They respect their costumers and allow you to install 3rd party ink cartridges.

My folks had a brother printer a couple years ago. Not terrible, but also nothing to write home about. Maybe that's good for a printer brand though lol

Epson Eco-Tanks if you want to print pictures

Else Brother Laser/LED, and order the pictures you want in print from a webshop.

That only promotes waste

Yea, if there's anything the world needs it's more e-waste!

I feel like this is the reason we have this problem in the first place
