Buy a brother printer instead. They may be a bit more expensive, but their easy mantainance and the amount of bootleg ink you can find online makes it worth the extra price.
Last time this came up, people were quick to bring up brother, and others (and that was new) to mention that brother started to do the same crap (limiting 3rd party toners). So I really don’t know what to think of them anymore.
I could be in the market for a b&w laser printer/scanner soon so I’ll keep an eye on replies here.

Brother pulls similar shit. My brother printer day my ink is out, and prints shittty pages, but the test page it prints is absolutely gorgeous.
Yep, my Brother is basically useless because it refuses to recognize 3rd party ink cartridges, I’m really angry about it.
Do Epson printers have DRM on the ink?
IIRC unless you go ecotank-tier, you are pretty much guaranteed some surprises. Good that they have a “reasonable” range, though.
Kind of, yes. 603XL has many compatible options, but the 604 of current printers was not available for cheap when I looked a few months ago.
