Note: I’ve no idea why the uploader decided to rotate the image, when I’ve tried rotating the original image in a way that’d fix it only to see that it didn’t matter

    I’ve actually been printing more at home over the past couple of years than I ever had before. Both as a hobby and for my son’s school stuff. The trick is to buy those after market inks on ebay. I use the Canon PIXMA series and can get 5 packs of all 4 colors for ~$20.00us. I tried the refillable cartridges, but the effort and mess isn’t worth it.

    The only thing with the printers is the print heads seem to clog too easily. Need to make sure you’re using it regularly.

      We moved to a brother last (b/w) for that exact reason. Run about 8k pages through it I think and it hasn’t once complained to me
