Try brother. They're usually quite good, though I've only had their laser printers.

    It will probably be either a Brother Inkbenefit or an Epson Ecotank model.

    My last Epson is a model from 2009 and still somehow works perfectly. Every Canon I've owned was garbage.

    Well, the question for me back then was printing wide, so the selection was quite limited from the start. And laser was completely out of the equation, as anything printing wider than 21cm was industrial (size of a bus and price of a house) back then.

    I have a brother color laser + scanner. Love it.

    I've had it for 8 years now, and so far it's only on its second set of toners etc.

    The only warning I give to brother printer owners is don't leave them on. The capacitors in them aren't the best and your printer will either not turn on without a long power off, or like mine it will turn on and off randomly all day and night.

    So now I only turn it on at the wall when I need it, and unplug it after
