> I don‘t understand why people keep buying these inkjet scam printers. It‘s been like this for almost 2 decades.

Once, I bought a HP color inkjet multi-function device for AU$30 (new). (That's about US$21.)

As a printer it had lots of problems and soon I gave up even trying to use it as one. Never even bothered buying replacement toner.

But I was happy with it as a flat-bed scanner. And I only paid $30 for it.
