I hate my HP printer! Can you recommend have a different brand for use at home that isn't crazy expensive for ink ? I just want to be able to print and scan the occasional thing but my printer is SO needy!

We have not one but two HP printers
According to my DH they have just put a block on any generic ink cartridges which stops the printer working
IT's super temperamental when you're just trying to quickly print DC homework or something.
We had an HP ink subscription and when we had that somehow the ink was lasting ages and we didn't get as many cartridges as I am sure we were meant to but then when we stopped it, it seemed to need a new input twice a month or something.

Anyway I have had enough.
Apols for rant if you have read this far
Someone must have some thoughts on brother or someone else?
Thanks so much

My brother all in one laser was around the £300 mark. Other than the odd update I've had no problems with it in over a year. I can easily print from my phone and PC. I don't have a mac book so not sure but I can't see why not.

Epsom eco tank wins hand down. Expensive to buy but you will save a fortune on ink. Our initial ink which came with the printer lasted over a year and that was using it in a small office as well as for personal use. Never any problems with it
