I was given a Brother printer that had spent 10+ years in a damp cellar. I already had one but this one was A3 and that could be ha’dy. Unfortunately it was an ink jet.
So, of course, I had to buy cartridges as the printer was screaming bloody murder. Alas, the whole feeding circuit and the printing head were clogged beyond salvage (the manual insists that it’s not to be left unplugged for extended periods).
But that’s not the point of the story. The whole (compatible) set of four cartridges was something like 17€. Also the scanner still worked just fine.
Looked like a great machine, probably not worth it to fix (new one is about 450€).
Get a brother printer

I replaced my HP with a brother laser printer. Works great and no more ink cartridges. That toner cart will last me years
