      I must say eco tank does look like solid printers, but I simply can’t bear the word “inkjet” any more. It’s laser for me.

        Gotta say I wish I had picked up the higher end ecotank but the basic is hands down the best printer I’ve ever had

        Laser if you don’t need photo printing. But if you do need InkJet then seems EcoTank is the way to go for sure.

    It is well-documented that ink is not required in order to scan or to fax a document…

    The reason Good will never prevail over Evil in this world is that Good is required to document shit like this, whereas Evil can get miles ahead being assholes in the time it takes to do that.

    I hope this goes for all of them. I had an old Canon printer I used for scanning only that I had offline and it accidentally went online and they bricked it.

    Ecotanks ftw. Sure they are slightly slower and when the paper gets damp the ink smears but for the price of the ink I’ll take it. I bought a 3 pack of black ink 3 years ago and to this day only 1 bottle has been used.
