Flying SquidCanon is getting away with printers that won’t scan sans ink — but HP might pay
HousePantherIt’s shenanigans like this that make me never want to buy a Canon or HP product. If I need a high end inkjet for printing photographs, it’s Epson all day. For anything else, I swear by a good used bulletproof Brother.
Maraval26Brother was good but I’m disappointed by the last units I had. After 4 years of light home usage (one page here and there), they are not picking up paper in the tray. Same for some relatives which bought similar units. Feels like scheduled obsolescence …
teftThe printer might just need a maintenance kit done to it. Those rollers are meant to wear out over time.
czechIt is surprising they'd stop working after only occasional use. The rollers on my scanner are good for 30k scans.
GizmoLionYou say "occasional use", I read "given time for dust to collect".
phillaholicIt’s this. All the printers at my office started screwing up in 2022 after barely any usage from 2020-2022.
