The newest canon pixma megatank models like G3270 or G4270 are good for its price. The G3270 is a very popular one. It can handle a lot of different papers (You can check that on their website if you want to make sure). It also has user replaceable print heads which many Epson Ecotank models lack. The waste ink cartridge is also chipped. Meaning a once full you can do a quick swap and move on. No need for an online software key anymore just to reset the waste counter. It also has decently fast wi-fi 5 and a screen which is very nice. If you hate the tiny screen tho, there is also the G4280/G3290 which has a much bigger full colour screen. The black ink tank is bigger than colour. It's also Pigment ink which is great for documents. A good all-rounder (EU version is GX4XX/GX5XX, Asia Version is GX7XX) You also don't need to squeeze the bottle anymore. That was for very early inktank models. Now they just use gravity only. Meaning once the bottle has been injected into the tank the ink will flow by itself. My parents use a G4570 (EU version) for example. They print bills and photos almost daily and they are very happy so far. The OEM ink is also very cheap and saved us hundreds of euros we'd normally spend on ink cartridges already

Laser is bad for photos. Big no no. Just great in documents and graphs Before we go inkjet I've gotta tell you there are two main types of liquid ink: dye and pigment Pigment is water-resistant, won't fade away during constant light exposure, and pretty much top tier for documents. It's downside are an only a "good" picture output if you try to print photos with this type of ink. It's also more expensive to produce. You also can only store it up to 2 years before it goes bad Dye on the other hand has great vibrant colours, it´s cheap to produce and has a shelf life of up to 3 years. Downsides are it´ll fade away eventually from constant light exposure (heck, I even think storing it in a dark spot will fade it away, it´ll just take much longer) and wash away when it gets the slightest contact of water or any liquid. So not great for printing documents, which you have to store for idk 10 years. You could either get a pure Pigment, mix of both or dye inkjet printer. Also, probably ink tanks are better economically, since with cartridges you'll get pretty much scammed for how little is inside. Pure dye printers are mostly Epson Ecotanks like the popular ET 4/3800 series. Although I´m not a fan of them since they use fixed parts (printheads) and a slow Wi-Fi 4 chip. It's also just 4 colour printer unless you go for like an ET 8500 which is a 6 colour but the fixed parts design is still there. My fav in pure dye would be the Canon Pixma G620 which has both modular printheads in case they fail and have a faster Wi-Fi 5 chip About the mixed ones. Epson and I think Brother both use full dye ink in their 4 coloured ink tanks. No going around. But Canon does mainly pigment black and colour dye like for example the Pixma G3270 or the G4270. They also still have modular printheads and Wi-Fi 5 so they're a great all-rounder Now full Pigment is like real Office type ish printers like Canon Maxify GX 4020 or 7020. Absolutely great for docs and graphs, but for photos and art it´s just a "meh". They also can't print borderless so that's probably a huge downer for you. Tbh. If you make lots of photos, go for a G620. Or if you want the ultimate balanced middle child, the G4270/G3270 (there is also the G4280/G3290 if you hate the tiny mono screen. They use bigger coloured touchpad screens)

1. Canon Pixma G4270/G4280 (Great print quality, Economical prints, Replaceable Printheads & Maintenance cartridges (if you do manage to clog them up somehow) :) 2. Epson ET 4850 (Great print quality, replaceable maintenance cartridges, non user replaceable head). Ignore everything else (Brother Inkvestment catridges(because it's still a catridge), anything HP). If your budget is higher, you will have more options. Also I'd advise not do many borderless prints as it can often lead to ink sprays inside the printer (I just print bordered & cut out the photos instead, that's just me!)

Very wrong. Tank inkjet printer + inkjet photo paper + a cable for your computer. Especially Epson ecotanks, canon mega tanks. Print a lot, 3rd party refills are cheap and no issue with chips. Sure there are a lot of predatory printers out there, but there are still plenty of other options. Don’t touch anything HP.
