My printer is mainly used for color photos and laser printers just aren’t as good at handling those.
How many photos do you print to make it worth it? I can send the files to my local photo lab and they generally print them within a couple hours. I'd have to print like 160 4x6 photos to spend the same as you spend each year in ink, and they are quality prints. If I went to Staples it would be even more.
Brother also has those EcoTank-like printers.
Even if it is not a laser, ink Brother printers are also bulletproof and as everybody says they work like a charm.
I had a brother printer and ditched it for an epson ecotank. Bought new cartridges for the brother and he cleaned it for first use, after that the half of it was empty. I just got about 30 prints from them. He immediatly flew out after this.
Epson ecoprints might be a good alternative. Bit more expensive upfront, but so much cheaper overall.
Epson workforce is great
