Yes, I do have a printer, and it’s useful; even though I don’t use it every day, it saves me quite a bit of money. Going somewhere else to print would be more expensive because they charge per page.

The only problem is that HP printers come with very little ink in their cartridges, and the cartridges themselves are very expensive. If you try buying a third-party cartridge with more ink, it might work at first, but sooner or later the printer will recognize that it isn't an original cartridge and throw an error.

My advice: buy a printer brand that allows you to use third-party cartridges, or at least one where the original cartridges contain more ink and aren't so expensive.



My advice is buy a black and white laser printer


These days a color laser isn't too much. Depends on your budget.
