From my point of view HP printers are a bad investment.

Buying anything HP is a bad investment

I've had really good experiences with their cheaper laptops in general. I tend to immediately blast Windows off them and replace it with Linux and I generally end up with a solid, reliable little work station with a 3-4 year life span, for an affordable price.

This has been known for at least a decade at this point. How HP still has a printer business I'll never understand.

Sadly there are a lot of people out there who buy things without doing any research whatsoever, and will just buy the cheapest printer that suits their needs
