Did not know that for black/white print the printer needs colors aswell. Not really happy . I printing mainly in black and white so dont understand that it takes from colors and not often just time to times.
The printers themselves are often confusingly cheap. I paid 30 for my Canon printer/scanner from Argos. It replaced a similar HP printer which had given up the ghost.
The OEM ink is then more than the cost of the printer. Guess none of us know how they get away with it, they do though so we’re stuck with it and I’m used to it now.
Did try non-branded ink a few times, the printers seem to be better at sniffing it out now though and reject it, I assume for my own protection as the ink cartridge may explode or something and burn my house down.
This is the way it is. I moan about it until I find something else to moan about.
The ink prints fine for home use, I’m happy with it.
