Best Printer: Canon, Epson or HP? 3k Maximum Budget

[_Cathy_]

clarification po.
our HP has two inks: one black, and another for color.

the price quoted is for black ink only. the color ink is more expensive.
we print in B&W more, and our black ink needed replacement more often.

na-tauhan kami when we found out just how cheap the newer competiting printers' inks cost.

so I can spend up to P3500 on ink (P1500 for black and P2000 [estimate] for colored) The HP printer probably costs P5k? haha

You mentioned P400 yung ink ng brothers? 2 cartridge din lang?

How much dr yung ink ng brothers? 2 cartridge din lang?

the black ink cost me 350-390 bucks.
i have not yet reason to buy the color inks.
but carouselling, the color ink cartridges are selling for 390 for each color (x 3 = 1170 bucks for all three colors-magenta, cyan, yellow.). unlike our old HP, each of the three required colors is separately replaced.
the entire panel of brother printer inks (one black, three color) will cost 1600 bucks for complete replacement.

the printer costs about 6K today.

^Avoid 3-in-1 esp hp. The internal power supply is weak, and when it get busted you'll get 3-in-1 junk. If not avoidable, stretch budget for a brother brand.

I prefer stand-alone. I got monochrome LaserJet-toner lasts for a year, a regular CIS printer,n A4 USB scanner, an A3 flatbed scanner for the larger docs.

our old home HP inkjet lasted several years.
we switched to brother, because of the HP's hideous cost of ink.

a stand-alone printer is prefered, if one is a heavy printer. our office computer is connected to a unit that does nothing but print. it is a beautiful, huge, big-bucks canon color laser printer...
