If you still own a HP printer, it's your own fault. Sorry. Got an Canon with liquid refill, loved it, equipped my company with it & recommended it to everyone I know. It's not even expensive & the quality is impeccable. Plus: no problems whatsoever over Linux.

EDIT: CANON, not Epson. I'm distracted sometimes. Canon PIXMA G4511, sub 300 Eur.

Wait till you find out it purges the lines every print, and while you can replace the purge sponge, the system doesn’t always have a “reset the purge sponge” option. And the ones that do use a rather unknown button combination that may or may not work.

I have an ecotank, no linux support.

Sorry, that happens when I do too many things at the same time. Canon. I'm talking of the Canon G4511 liquid refill.

My epson ecotank l6490 works like charm with Linux..

For me too with wifi, and the standarised network printing 🤣 but not when directly connected to pc with usb.

My FIL owns an HP with a subscription. I've given up on the things he wastes money on; most of them he's not really technically savvy enough to implement anyway. (And, yes, buying a printer and getting it installed may exceed his technical abilities)

I have one of those, it won't work with my Linux though :/

Now I fucked it up, my finger wrote "Epson x while my brain thought "Canon"... I was talking the Canon G4511.
