Inkjet printers no longer viable for low volume printing
Over the last few years I have found that the amount I/we print at home has decreased to about 10 pages a month. Some months there is no printing at all.
While due to the low volume I use HP ink, I found that getting the printer to start required many cleaning cycles, which requires ink.
Why you would use the most expensive substance known to man to clean a print head is beyond me but HP do.
The final straw was when the cleaning cycle used 70% of the ink. Printer next stop was the tip.
I replaced it with a Dell multi-function colour laser (Xerox re-badge) and some third party toner. In fact the installation toner lasted 2 years.
Printer prints when required and no cleaning clycles.
