That seems fine on the surface. But they don’t just sell ink cartridges. They show them empty when there’s still ink, or if you only run out of one kind of ink. They’re sniveling backstabbing weasels who fuck over their customers. Fuck them.
Plus, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen an affordable printer. I’m just going to get gouged twice.
You can put brother printers on continuous mode and they will keep printing. When the quality starts to look bad, take the toner out and shake it. Put it back in. Volia.

Yeah I’m not saying HP are the good guys, just explaining the wording of that quote.
I love my Epson EcoTank printer. $12/3oz. Ink is a fantastic bargain, and no chips to deal with as they’re just big, dumb, tanks.
Ditto. It’s great. No DRM. Just ink. The printer is more pricy but it’ll save you in the end.
Nice. I’ll look into this!
Brother makes great printers and they accept generic toner/ink.
… and the inks report as empty before they are empty, regardless of brand. Still, cheaper to throw in a new 3rd party tank than throwing money at HP.
My next printer will be an “eco tank” refillable printer - which probably has other special problems I don’t know about yet.

*Brother laser printer can do that. My consumer inkjet can’t.
Oh nice. Thanks for the info!
