New Printer

Lordy, I bought a new printer a couple months ago and I HATE it.  We had a Kodak easy share for years and years and it worked great, it just got wore out.  So, I bought another Kodak, and it SUCKS.  Hate it.  Hate it.  

 

I need a new printer.  The problem is the reviews are all over the place.  The same printer will have 2 stars on one listing and 4 stars on another. I just want a simple printer.

We recently got an Epson Workforce WF-2750. So far so good.

Mine is an HP. Not one issue with it.

We have always had problems with our 3-in-1 as far as it scanning. It's a hit or miss depending on its mood.

I have HP's 2050 all-in-one. No problems
with it at all. Hope you find one to your
liking.

I don't know if it was just our printer or if it's a known issue but we had a HP Envy and it was crap. I forget the model number. It would print the text of the coupon but not the barcode. It would print half of each line of a document - literally. As in it would print either the top half or bottom half of each line of text of the document. What it did depended on its mood. Never worked right.

 You HAD  an HP in there dark days.  Today, they are the premiere company for printers. I get it is maddening to buy a brand that ripped you off prior, but if you need a printer buy HP today.

 This was circa 2015/2016.

I had many HP printers prior to that and they were all awesome. Zero complaints. That Envy was a piece of crap. Really threw me for a loop because I'm used to HP being such a good brand. More than likely was just that particular printer.

See, now we have an hp and it sucks. When it's not guzzling ink like it's going out of style, it's plain not working for some reason or another. Most of the time if I need something printed I just email it to my work email and print it from there.

I bought the Canon Pixma MG2522 tonight. Old fashioned. Wired. CD to install. Easy Peasy and it is working. I'm so happy.

We have 3.

One, the biggest, is an HP. It does everything but make coffee, however it is very old.

One is smaller, works with Bluetooth, and the third is for mom's work. Dedicated or some such whatever.

I don't know what they are other than white.

Sorry. I can't help.
