I’ve had the Epson EcoTank ET2750 for a couple years. Never a problem, I’ve had to clean the heads twice when I didn’t use it in a couple months. Still using the ink that came with. With my old printers I’d have to go buy new cartridges every time I needed to use it. this is much better with way less BS than before.

I have had great luck with Epson but decided to try HP. Nope! going back to Epson next time. (probably sooner than later if this HP doesn't straighten up) LOL Ecotank sounds like a good idea.

'Cartridge World' franchise down there? 1/2 the price per cartridge.

Be careful with your printer if you are on a network! Sometimes the printer is not correctly setup within the network - leaves it open to hackers. There is space in memory that can be used to store a virus or bug, once installed it is just a matter of starting it and you have access to the network and undoubtedly it will leave a back door into the system.

I NEVER use a printer's wireless connection.

Don't see the need.

Put the printer on a hard connection.

The computer is the thing that needs to be mobile and wireless.
