You’re going to have to pick only one of these I’m afraid

What colour would you like your dragon?
Get a laser printer.
Brother laser printers are pretty ok. If you never update their firmware.
Honestly, Dell laser printers are best I’ve ever used. Very good value, replacing toner couldn’t be easier, setting it up for network printing was way easier than Brother, they’re far more reliable than Samsung printers (constantly had paper jams) and I can print from my Android phone natively.
Without going into something really high-end, like a Phaser, the Dell printers are very much worth a look.
How’s the third party toner market for them?
For my model (H825cdw) there are third party options that are quite a bit cheaper. I get reimbursed for my toner, so I just get it from Dell.
Get a tank printer, you can’t DRM liquid (afaik). I have an hp one with tiny tanks, I refill once a year and the branded bottles aren’t too expensive, but you can use generic inks, though I’ve read about people with the same printer having problems with the viscosity of generic inks, so you still need quality ink.
A downside is I have to print something every now and then to keep it from clogging (a month or two).
I don’t necessarily recommend my specific model, but at least that type of printer, I’ve found it’s been great. Software is kinda shit like any printer but I have Linux on my desktop so it doesn’t really matter, shitty proprietary software is only needed for Windows (I have zero experience with Mac)
