We had a HP Printer for a long time and it was a nightmare. After it broke down, i noticed that Epson was the first company to make a printer with ink tanks, while the others where still arguing that its not possible because the ink would dry out. I figured this must be the least evil printer company then. It's been working fine for now. Also no need to buy third party ink because the original is reasonably priced. By now the others also offer printers with tanks.
