      I know it's been a while since you made this comment, but I have a couple questions: Is there a certain manufacturer that you've noticed that is best in reliability and speed for the price? If so, which is it? also, what do you think of the new printers that use reservoirs instead of cartridges?

    • @rspy24
      @rspy24 5 років тому +44

      @@cmdrvaneia1498 It depends of a lot of things, country, availability, what type of prints you want to make, sometimes a brand has some very shitty printer, but the same brand can also have some really good ones.. Personally i do avoid HP like the plague, and i like Epson with the ecotank (L380 for example) a lot more, It's more expensive like 50% more than a regular HP but on the long run you save SO MUCH on ink, it's actually pretty crazy, Ecotank is pretty great! If you have some time, look a this video. ua-cam.com/video/AHX6tHdQGiQ/v-deo.html

    • @Hellefleur
      @Hellefleur 5 років тому +33

      @@cmdrvaneia1498 I've had HP, Canon and Epson. HP is ok. Canon is good but both use cartridges. What finally drove me to reservoir inkjet printer was when I was trying to print a black and white page but I need to replace the color cartridge because it was out of cyan. A new Canon color cartridge was $37. I got an Epson Ecotank very soon after because honestly I was being ripped off on ink.
      I've had the Epson Ecotank for 2 years now? No problems other than having to print something once a week or so, so the ink doesn't dry up. Also the printer is slow and performs poorly with low quality paper if you're trying to double side print automatically. And you need to clean the print heads (via printer menu) every 200 full pages or so if you're mass printing something.
      Other than that, it's proven reliable and the price of ink is much, much better in the long run. 20x more ink at a fraction of the price of a typical ink cartridge.
