As far as I understand consumer inkjets are designed as loss leaders. They make the majority of product revenue with the ink.
Pretty much everything that people hate about them comes from this business model.
I personally print very rarely, but I found laser printers are much better for rare printing. When I had an Inkjet the Ink was always dried up when I tried to use it occasionally, so when I actually needed it it didn't work. So now I buy the cheapest laser printer that can do duplex, and that works when I need it.
Probably the only reason to have an Inkjet is if you need color printing
- lostcolony 6y agoYeah - I have a cheap laser printer at home for those rare times I need to print something (since if I ever needed color I'd need a really good print job and so would do it at a print center). But even with that...I intentionally avoided HP.
