Canon is getting away with printers that won’t scan sans ink — but HP might pay - Lemmy.world

I’ve been doing IT for over 25 years. The only printer brand I will buy or recommend for the past 15 years running is Brother.

Brother has pulled this shit on my laser, locking out a non genuine cartridge after an update

Be warned they are all pieces of shit

My recommendation is to not buy cheap and look into small or medium printer class printers (depending on the volume).
Never the consumer version if possible.
