My HP put me through one to many hour-long fights to print a single page and I’m done with it. Going to go full office space on that thing, but first I need a new printer. I’m not a heavy user, so I’m lookng to spend $300 or less. What do yall recommend?

Must haves Color printing Copying (B&W and color) Accepts generic ink/toner

Strongly prefer Printing cardstock up to 300 GSM Duplex printing feeder

Inkjet or laserjet is OK, with slight preference for laserjet. Also, scanner not needed

    Laser.

    “It costs money because it saves money”

    My 1997 Lexmark black and white laser just quit. I don’t remember when I last replaced the toner. Plus, I think I can fix it - it acts like there’s a paper jam. I’ve never seen an inkjet last that long.

    A used laser (of the right brand, say brother), is far better than a new printer made by a crappy company (especially inkjet).
