doesn't help that printer ink is one of the most expensive liquids in the world and the whole business model of printer companies is based on selling overpriced ink, so much so that they sell printers at a loss and then try to block out third party cartridges

Fuck my printer ink is like $20 for 3 of all 4 colors and the larger black cartridge it has. I love my Canon.

I tossed my Canon ink printer in the trash lol.

it started with low on cyan, so I did what it asked for and replaced the whole ink set, but then found out that the previous ink has dried on the ink tuner since I haven't used the printer for ~6 months and didn't feel like spending any more money on this shit.

So I got my myself a laser brother printer and it's been kicking for over 6 years now

I have a Pixma mx922 and it just works for what I need. I recently replaced all the inks and they all looked empty and the printer said I had plenty left in everything but cyan. It's dumb enough it'll run out of ink if you let it. I love it.

But yeah if I needed a new one I'd go laser.
