Tank printers
macOS 10.12 Sierra
On Black Friday I’ve spent a day of research on printers to replace one no longer working.

The upshot is a collective moan in reviews in Which? consumer magazine, various store websites etc about having to pay for expensive cartridge or toner replacements.

I’ve found some amazing reviews about tank printers - fantastic value to run etc.

Are HP working on a tank printer and if not, why not? What does research say at HP???

HP has had a tank printer on the market for a year or more, but it seems to be only in a few regions such as India and the Middle East.  Look for the HP Deskjet gt5820

 

For good ink value you might look at the HP Instant Ink program - this is a subscription based program where you pay for a certain number of pages per month and the cartrdiges are included in the charge.  Prices range from 15 pages per month for free up to $9.99 for 300 pages per month.  There are often introductory offers for up to five free months.  See the page here for information.

Well spotted with the tank version! I missed it entirely.

Bit of a nuisance it’s not sold where I’m located.

Thanks for your reply.
