Well - buy the printer and once it runs out of ink toss it and buy another printer :)

I did that with an HP inkjet - got me out of trouble until it ran out, then I replaced with a Brother laser that was half of what the ink refills for the HP would have been. Toner for the Brother is like 20 bucks and lasts for a couple of years given my level of usage.

Years ago I used to do this when I rarely but occasionally needed a printer. Less than $100 for a printer that'd last me 2-3 years then just buy a new one. I fully support this strategy if your usage is really, really low.

Regarding the brother printer, what do you do with your replacement ink things?

I sell them to one of those shady “cheap toner/ink” places, I imagine they refurbish and resell the cartridge in turn.
