Obligatory fuck HP.
Also, get an ink tank printer, changed my world for home printing, still only halfway through the first fill, after a couple of years and hundreds of pages.
Or get a black and white laser printer if you’re mainly printing text and not photos. Laser printed text is much sharper and more readable, plus the toner can’t dry up (it’s already a dry powder) the way ink does (this is why inkjet printers do so many “cleaning” cycles).
i have a brother and it works pretty well but i dont have tanks. the cartridges are pretty cheap (like $25 for all the colors+black. it was $100 used back in 2021 and it leaks on the floor so i put paper bags under it. also it like refuses to print yellow idky. never had hp or canon so i cant compare. idk it’s good for taxes lol

what printer brand/model do you recommend?
Brother
We use brother printers. I used a microscope to prove they mix colors with black toner just to drain color toners when you chose the B&W option.

Mine happens to be an epsom ecotank, I’ve found the software ok, no weird behaviour or restrictions and the ink is lasting really well.
