Brother makes great printers and they accept generic toner/ink.

... and the inks report as empty before they are empty, regardless of brand. Still, cheaper to throw in a new 3rd party tank than throwing money at HP.

My next printer will be an "eco tank" refillable printer - which probably has other special problems I don't know about yet.

You can put brother printers on continuous mode and they will keep printing. When the quality starts to look bad, take the toner out and shake it. Put it back in. Volia.

*Brother laser printer can do that. My consumer inkjet can't.
