We need a new printer. Maybe I am just cynical but I feel increasingly like printers are cheap upfront but then outrageous on ink prices or with forced internet connection and updates at all times and other assorted printer based horror stories that I have been seeing a lot of in the past years.
I’m just wondering if anyone has actually GOOD (or at least ok) experiences with theirs and could point us in the right direction? Reminding me which ones not to use is also helpful here.
Thanks!
Edit: thanks everyone for the feedback! This is very helpful.
laser is the way to go. inkjets are cheaply made with expensive, wasteful, and sometimes proprietary ink cartridges.
laser printers use toner, which prints way way more pages per cartridge than ink. More than 10x. Cost is about the same or sometimes less than ink
The only thing laser isn’t great for is photos. I go to a print shop when i need those, but if you print a ton of photos at home than maybe inkjet makes sense
