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.
Some guy is building an ‘open printer’: https://www.crowdsupply.com/open-tools/open-printer
This is not the first time this has been tried and there are proprietary parts still, but this could be the best we have if it launches. Although, I can’t imagine a world where this doesn’t have significant caveats. I think it’ll probably be workable though.
If you want something a bit more polished, just get a brother laserjet printer like everyone else is mentioning.
