I have stood by HP printers for 30 years but I stopped recommending them and I don't think I'll buy another one. For most people, a LaserJet printer was a one-time purchase but HP has become hostile to this practice. They have reduced the capacity of the standard cartridges, equipped printers with starter cartridges, and increased their price dramatically. I recently had to purchase replacement cartridges for a 7 year old Color LaserJet and genuine cartridges were going to run $450 for a full set. I think I paid $240 for the printer but HP saw the pandemic as an opportunity to raise prices so the equivalent now costs over $600. I ended up purchasing Non-genuine cartridges and when this printer dies I'll probably get a monochrome Brother.
