I have not had to buy a printer for a long time, but last I did research on the matter it was Brother all the way.

Yes, as much as I love other HP products, their printers can be expensive and painful(at least in my experience). As weird as it sounds, feels cheaper and easier to 3D print, than handle paper with cartridge Inkjets.

Recently went for a brother toner based printer, and even if the quality it's lower if you look for details, feels so nice to have a device that "just works". Besides the toner and drums are multiple times cheaper.

Until Brother support tells you your new printer was not purchased from their authorized dealer and despite it being faulty from factory, the warranty is void.

To be clear, I’m not defending HP (I avoid them myself too). I just want to raise more awareness that Brother is not great option either. They are just much less shitty than HP.
