I am a realtor who had used HP printers for over 10 years when my $300 HP crashed and burned because I dared use generic ink. That was 5 years ago when I was using at least $30/month in ink. So I tried a Brother; waste of money. Then I tried an Epson WF 2650; it was ok. In comes my EPSON Eco tank 2550—cheapest one out there when I bought 4 years ago. 4 years later I estimate that I have spent about $60-$90/ YR Yes YEAR and while HP has the best print quality, my friends could not really tell the difference when I showed them print copies and asked an HP user. I used draft on HP because of the ink cost for everyday printing. Epson draft print stinks but regular is fine and at this cost who cares? One negative cannot print on clear labels; only white. Other than that no cons other than speed of print which I have adjusted to. HP prints at a better speed. I LOVE< LOVE< LOVE my EcoTank and my ink waste pad just filled up so I may spring for a new Eco Tank and keep this one as a backup.
