Greentings As youve seen from the the title, i want to get a new printer as a present for my parents. Sadly they are still windows peasants and my mom somehow thinks that the HP printer on her desk has been a good financial investment, even though it has costed us more than 300 bucks in ink over the past 2 years.
I was hoping that you fine folks would have some good recommendations to replace this money leach on their home. Ive heard about the entire brother lazer meme going around, but the ones ive seen from them only do monochrome. And frankly speaking i dont think that my birth specimens can comprehend the greatness of 18 century film on their paper. Anyways have a nice day or night, internet strangers!

I have an HL-2270DW and the toner low light comes on well before prints start washing out. Fortunately the toner life is tracked by a plastic gear on the cartridge, and it takes just a minute to roll it back. When it does run out, good third party replacements are under $20.

It feels really silly to say, but they mostly just want to print their tax and insurance documents in color, since it “looks more official” and “the ones in the letters do it too!” . i primarily just want to replace the HP bastard to reuse its guts for a 3d printer. the scanning might be an issue though since thats its primary use. know if brother also has a color one with scanner? In the worst case scenario i could hook up an old a3 scanner we have laying around.
