Do you have a brand and model you’d recommend? I’m always open to a better set up.

It’s not for everyone, but the subscription model works well for me. I don’t print a lot each month, but what I do is mostly very ink-heavy images. I was spending a lot more when I bought my own cartridges, plus I had to go to the store and hope it was in stock. Now they mail me a new cartridge when I’m running low.
