    Yes that’s because nobody actually uses Inkjets correctly. They aren’t meant to be unplugged and left to rot. They are meant to be used. If you only use a printer occasionally buy a laser printer.

      Yeah, I imagine they can be decent for businesses with in-house repair staff and that print stuff all day every day so the nozzles usually don’t dry up and clog during business hours.

      But if you’re not in the printing business and don’t have someone in the office who is comfortable grabbing a screwdriver to take a printer apart and fix it, then you’re probably better off with a laser printer.

        I’ve never had to take it apart. I have had to run head cleaning a few times, but that’s from leaving it unplugged for a while. Aside from that it works alright. I don’t get why they would need to take it apart, that sounds like a massive exaggeration.
