Printer (computer)
Not sure this belongs here,
But need to replace a printer for my kids.
Had a Lexmark that just quit a few weeks ago.
Don't need anything too high end, used mostly for kids homework.
Probably only factor for me is ink cartridges cost as the kids go through a good amount.
Any suggestions on one to buy ???

Personally..I think cartridges as a whole suck....I'd prefer a laser printer

they don't do that. But school these days, all reports must be typed. It's like an expectation

If you don't print a lot, careful about HP printers. Many of their cartridges have electronic expiration dates on them and can stop working even if they are half full.
I have also had 4 HP printers (all different models purchased years apart) that have give the dreaded "pink printing" issue.
The quality of the printers is great, along with the speed, but my confidence in their holding that quality over a long period has seriously faded.
