If you don't need color, try a laser printer. Toner doesn't dry out; you only pay for what you actually print.
Beware, however, that if you live in a very humid climate, toner will clump easily. I suspect this is why inkjets are very common in Southeast Asia, whereas lasers are not as popular there.
Many printer manufacturers nowadays sell inkjet printers with laser-printer like operating costs, where ink is dirt-cheap, but the printer is correspondingly more expensive. Google for Epson EcoTank or Brother Inkvestment.
Color laser printers are slow, but not expensive.
After this I would only get a printer which has IPP Everywhere or at least is supported by foomatic-db. hplip can get lost.
I can also get non Brother branded cartridges as they don't make a habit out of selling the printer so cheap that they have to then rape you on the price of the cartridges when it's time to refill.
The non-Brother branded cartridges work just as well as the official ones and I can go into any major office chain and buy them off the shelf.
I can attest that in Windows 10 I always have to delete and re-add the network printer whenever I want to print something because apparently being offline even once is enough of an upset to send the Windows printing system into paroxysms of fear, where it will tremble mightily, unable to re-try in less than 20 minutes. Don't get me started on how it's impossible to share a cellular connection over Ethernet because plugging Ethernet in turns the cell connection off to "save power" either. That little turd of a feature cost me a couple hours last week.
