I have an ecotank too. No BS subscription shenanigans, painless to get it working. What impresses me is the lack of it breaking if it sits even months between uses, usually not even needing to be cleaned.
If you get a Brother, it’s best to go with laser, as the toner will last ages. If you’re on a budget, the Brother inkejet I have gives zero shits what cartridges I put in there, as long as they’re the right shape. I usually have to clean the contacts on top of the cartridges before inserting like it’s an NES, though.
What are good printer companies? Fuck HP and Epson
HP certainly needs fucked with a pineapple, Epson otoh, I’m not so sure, I have two eco-tank printers and have had no issues with them whatsoever.

Epson are ok as long as you remember they’re descended from Tamagochis. Leave them alone for a month and they’ll sometimes clog up for ever.
Get a Brother laser. Don’t bother with color.
Brother
My Brother printer has been going for about 14 years, so I recommend them.
OK, but what printer does your brother use?
Brother used to be a holdout, but they probably aren’t anymore.

Buy a slightly older one. I have a cannon now, it’s works great. I don’t print all that much anyway, so I’m not too knowledgeable about printers tbh.
I have an Epson ink tank one and it’s 100 times better than HP. Is Epson really that bad?
I had a terrible experience with epson
