i made the mistake of buying an hp piece of junk as my latest printer, as it looked like it was an update of an old model from samsung i liked.

it didn't even surpass the duration of the included toner. what an awful piece of hardware. super slow wifi scans, continued nagging about low toner, hard to acquire compatibles due to the "security chip".

switched to a brother, seems way better but time will tell. in any case I think this is my last all-in-one, probably a scanner and a small laser printer are better bets in the long term. space and automatic document feeder are important tho

+1 The HP laserjet that I bought 5 years ago turned out to be a piece of junk. The software was also awful, it would often randomly crash, reboot itself and make lots of noise. Using a Canon Maxify inkjet now, much better machine and much cheaper to run.
