The brother printer my spouse has had for ages is finally running out of ink and a quick chedk shows that they don't make cartridges for it anymore, you cant reset them, and you can only buy dubious 3rd party options on amazon for $150 each. For that kind of money id rathet find a printer that let's me put of the scam, but im not finding a lot of options there. Does anyone have advice?

There might be an echo in here, but Brother laser printer is the way to go. I've had mine for at least 15 years and the only complaint is deep sleep mode caused wireless printing issues until I figured out how to turn it off.
