    I haven’t bought a printer in years, but had to service a crappy one for work. I’m very interested in this ink bottle refill type of printer. That honestly sounds perfect. Didn’t know it was a thing. Thank you.

      I’ve never used a refillable bottle type inkjet, but everyone I’ve talked to who has says they’re a nightmare and never work right.

        Yes that’s because nobody actually uses Inkjets correctly. They aren’t meant to be unplugged and left to rot. They are meant to be used. If you only use a printer occasionally buy a laser printer.

          Yeah, I imagine they can be decent for businesses with in-house repair staff and that print stuff all day every day so the nozzles usually don’t dry up and clog during business hours.

          But if you’re not in the printing business and don’t have someone in the office who is comfortable grabbing a screwdriver to take a printer apart and fix it, then you’re probably better off with a laser printer.
