Best DURABLE printer not named Epson?!?
Thanks!
Answers:
Printers are fairly cheap, so if you're willing to pay $250 for a printer you could buy a cheapo $40-60 and when it breaks you can buy up to 4-5 new ones to replace it. This is likely to give you better reliability than a $250 one.
I've owned two HPs, one I gave to my mom, and it's 5 years old and runs great. I bought it for $150 at the time and it's a photo printer. She prints from it maybe once every few months and I know it still works because when I visit 2-3 times a year I can still print my plane tickets.
I bought another one for her that is a scanner (she wanted to scan some recipes and that way she could put a printer one in my sister's room) and that cost $60 on sale.
I also have an all-in-one I bought 3 years ago for $100 and I print from it a few times a month.
So in all, cheap printers (relatively), great quality, and high reliability. I'm quite happy with my HP(s).
It doesn't seem quality of print is an issue but they have relatively good print quality and you're not going to notice if you're just printing text. Pictures with photo paper is "good/great" but not "exceptional".
HP and brother.
I have a 1999 one and a 1996 printer.
They both still work.
HP is the best brand on Earth for printers.
Just another recommendation for HP. We have four in our family (different households), have only had HP for the past six years, and never a problem.
