6:35 I really appreciated that you mentioned hp instant ink ‘scam’. I was using another model of hp printer and I enrolled that instant ink and a few months later I quit. Now Hp even doesn’t let me use the previous ink cartridges that they sent it for this instant ink program. 😨 I paid these money on the previous months abd now it doesn’t let me use. Now I am buying a trustable product - Brother 👍🏻 thanks again..

You can’t go wrong with a Brother, mine has been very reliable all these years and ink is as cheap as it gets if you don’t mind getting non original one.

The thing with having to be connected with HP+ ... one day when HP decides your printer is 'outdated' you simply need a new printer. NEVER buy any printer which requires you to connect to their service in order to print because one day they WILL shut you down even if your printer is still perfect. A good laser printer like the Brother (just bought one) can last you easily over 10-20 years.

I agree with your comment. Unfortunately Brother has started pushing their subscription service as well.

I had a great HP LaserJet 1012 that I used for years, until Windows 10 was introduced. HP did not offer a Windows 10 driver so I had to screw around with an older driver designed for another printer, which was a real pain. Why should I buy an HP printer when they refuse to provide updated drivers for the latest operating systems? I've been using a Brother HL-2270DW for the last several years with both Windows 10 and 11, and it's worked well.

I had not updated my payment method with HP and still using my first cartridge. Printer would not print until I updated my payment method. I thought that was sneaky. Dont like the feeling of being tied down to it. I know that now its like $4 a month but it felt so stupid that I have this printer at home is practically brand new and is junk if I dont pay. What i am wondering would it work again if i just buy the ink myself OEM? Even if i have to purchase it myself i would rather do that.

I've always loved HP especially in the late '90s but for some reason my HP 8600 seems to be making ink cartridges leak or explode, and I'm seriously considering a brother but just want to make sure it's going to be something that will last

You're so helpful, thank you so much. I still have an unaswered question. I will give the premise. I travel a lot for work and comes home months in between. I want to buy a printer that I can use whenever I come back home. Which one of this is better being left unused for a while?

@dianthus605 8 ай бұрын

Usually a laser printer (whatever brand) will be reliable for occasional, infrequent use. On the other hand any kind of inkjet printer will tend to get clogged print-heads because the ink dries out. Laser toner is a dry powder, it stays usable for longer.

You make it sound like a rite of passage / sign of maturity ... (or what you call it - not a native speaker). And maybe it is, at least if it's a laser printer. Not sure an inkjet counts... :)

DO NOT BUY HP !! I purchased an HP 234dw laser jet printer approximately 3 weeks ago and the latest scam they are running includes acknowledging that you CANNOT RETURN even if it is defective.. only a fake manufacturer's warranty. This printer was supposedly new. But it is already torn up after printing a 200 page print job.

I bought an HP laserjet m140we printer and you cannot use another cartridge if it is not original from HP Although its ink plan has not been used, it is very sad because the original cartridges are very expensive. If you are going to buy an HP printer, do not buy one whose name ends with "e" like mine, whose name is m140w"e". I recommend that you buy another brand, HP is a cheating brand

@rickbear7249 4 ай бұрын

I've just purchased the Brother HL‑L2400DWE after HP blocked my Inkjet from printing because I fitted non-HP ink cartridges. Well, HP, you can kiss goodbye to any further business from me or my company. Totally disreputable company in my opinion. BTW, Brother also offer a subscription for Laser Toner, but I won't be going near that either.

@printerinsider 4 ай бұрын

Yeah I just review a brand new Brother and saw the brochure trying to sell their new subscription plan.

@rickbear7249 4 ай бұрын

Speaking with Brother UK, just to verify whether I'd have difficulties if I tried their new toner subscription service, then reverted to using 3rd party toner, they said definitely no problem. Unlike HP who change your software if you subscribe, Brother said there is absolutely no problem if I wish to use any compatible toners. I thought this would be the case, as Brother have always respected their customers (and I've been once since 1984).
