"Try ink tank inkjet printers from Epson and Canon (ecotank and mega tank) It is the lowest printing cost you can find."
"Epson eco tank."
"Epson."
"Eco tank for sure. I bought mine 2nd hand from mercari and I love to print everything."
"The Epson Ecotank is highly recommended for those who don't print frequently on glossy paper."

"I have an Epson Ecotank ET 2800 and it serves me well."
"Ecotanks are good but the ones designed for home use require that you use them 'often'."
"Epsons can be okay but still can have major issues. More to do with clogged ink due to not using it regularly."
