Printer toner woes
Discussion
I have a HP Colour Laser jet M252DW which worked really well when new. It's now a few years old and needs new toner. Last batch was non-OEM and has been a bit st from the start but now produces faint print and yellow/pink/cyan spots.
Looking at the alternatives toners, HP OEM ones are around £230, with another (prob crap) non OEM at £50ish.
We dont use the printer much and it was only bought for the kids project work for A Levels (now all away at Uni).
I'm torn between OEM (risk that print will still be st as non-OME toner has borked it), more cheap non-OEM toner (prob be st) or bin it ( I hate the idea of the waste) and get a new mono one that only needs 60 quid toner when needed (and is £100 to buy)
Views?
And yes I know how the laser printer business model works and I am being a dick
