my parent bought a HP deskjet printer for us, but the ink is so expensive that any picture needs be small that the ink don’t run out as quickly. and the software is garbage too.

They have to print the invisible printer identification dots somehow.

Who needs color anyway? A black laser printer is the way to go :)

doesn’t help that printer ink is one of the most expensive liquids in the world and the whole business model of printer companies is based on selling overpriced ink, so much so that they sell printers at a loss and then try to block out third party cartridges
