I have had a pretty good experience with Epson Eco Tanks. They cost more than an inkjet, but the ink seems a lot more reasonable...even when buying it from Epson.

I can vouch for this. In my experience, both the printer and original ink have lasted 7 years (and counting) with very infrequent prints. Just a few head cleanings from the maintenance menu if it's been a while and it still works. It's still 3/4 full.

I’ve got one too and have been generally happy with it, though I print a lot more than you do.

Some issues:

Mine must be connected to the network via Ethernet; if I use Wi-Fi it disappears from the network after about 5-10 minutes (goes to sleep?) and you cannot print without pressing a few buttons on the printer.

It is unable to update its own firmware (maybe this is a plus?).

There is a fair amount of thin plastic and a general feeling that it will break if I’m not gentle. But I have had it for almost 3 years with no breakage.
