minus-squarebeyondthegrave@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·9 months agoBut buying a second printer would make my current 2yr investment a waste so savings would be a wash. Also I do need color sometimes making the HP the better value until they start charging more for color. Definitely will consider it when this printer dies though.
