I'm just now having to replace my brother printer (HL-2170W) I bought in 06, because the NIC is toast.

The printer still works great, but duplex printing sure would be nice.

Every inkjet printer on this planet has a choice. Cheap ink, accessible printheads, expensive. You have to pick one.

Certain Hp? Expensive cartridges but new print heads with every cart. Epson ecotank? Cheap ink but non replaceable printheads. High-end printers? Insanely priced printheads and ink.

The only way out is laser.
