I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

What are good printer companies? Fuck HP and Epson
Get a Brother laser. Don't bother with color.
people always say this, but 95% of what i print is index and reference cards that need colour :( I would love to get a B&W printer, but i need the colours.
Color Laserjet is the way if you "need" colors. The only time inkjet is any better is if you're printing actual photo quality stuff. But at that point it's cheaper to just buy it through an online company like https://www.nationsphotolab.com/prints.aspx rather than maintaining the printer itself.
Well shit. I literally have never needed color for printing but I get it.
Brother
My Brother printer has been going for about 14 years, so I recommend them.
OK, but what printer does your brother use?
Also a Brother :P
HP certainly needs fucked with a pineapple, Epson otoh, I'm not so sure, I have two eco-tank printers and have had no issues with them whatsoever.
I have an ecotank too. No BS subscription shenanigans, painless to get it working. What impresses me is the lack of it breaking if it sits even months between uses, usually not even needing to be cleaned.
And since ink can be bought in bulk, it's cheap to run too.
Epson are ok as long as you remember they're descended from Tamagochis. Leave them alone for a month and they'll sometimes clog up for ever.
I have an Epson ink tank one and it's 100 times better than HP. Is Epson really that bad?
I had a terrible experience with epson
Canon laser printers
Buy a slightly older one. I have a cannon now, it's works great. I don't print all that much anyway, so I'm not too knowledgeable about printers tbh.
Brother used to be a holdout, but they probably aren't anymore.
If you get a Brother, it’s best to go with laser, as the toner will last ages. If you’re on a budget, the Brother inkejet I have gives zero shits what cartridges I put in there, as long as they’re the right shape. I usually have to clean the contacts on top of the cartridges before inserting like it’s an NES, though.
