Are these printers good enough to print photos? It’s basically $1.25 a month for 15 pages? So I could technically print 15 8.5x11 photos each month ?

My borderless prints at maximum resolution (HP Envy) are no different (if not tad better) than my WM and Costco prints. It uses the same ink and has the same resolution as many other HP desk/office jets so I think they will be of similar quality regardless (support for boardless printing varies though).

+ whatever you pay for photo paper.

Yup, that is exactly what many here (me included) have been doing for the last couple of years.

Is this still even worth the effort? It’s my understanding that inkjet printers are basically being given away these days to make profit off the ink itself over time.

Would it be more worth it to invest a little more in a laser printer and not have to worry about dealing with changing the ink all the time?

Almost 3 years of ownership, hundreds of 8.5x11 photos printed at highest resolution and quality possible $0 spent on ink :) So I don't really think HP is making money out of my use case. Even if it's no longer free, it's less than a small cup of coffee a month.

Yes for BW volume printing, no way for color. Remember the whole point of the instant ink program is that you don't deal with changing ink all the time ;)

Ah I see. Thanks so much. That does sound enticing $1.25 for 15 pages. I wasn't sure if it was "too good to be true" other than buying photo paper and printer.

Which printer do you have? Any deals right now?

Following. Looking for a printer, all the decent ones seem to be out of stock everywhere.

Envy 4520 (entry not the higher end photo variants) for $40 from 2018, the most recent successor was the 5070 (also went as low as $40 late last year) now revamped as white, no screen, protruding tray 6055 ($150) for whatever reasons HP might have!
As with anything else, when demand is high deals become scarce, I regularly update the OP with my and everyone else's findings so keep an eye on that.

Im trying to decide between a laser and another inkjet. I don't print much but when I do its usually a bunch of b/w documents, and 1/2 the time my inkjet at home is dry when I need it -_-

Are there any good deals on a budget all in one laser?

Cheapest one I found, but it had low/bad reviews

I also signed up for the HP coupon, on two different emails, its been about an hr and no coupon yet..

Instant ink takes care of that, also a maintenance page printed every 8 or so week can be easily automated with these connected printers.

$200 BNIB

$150 (- %15 sign up coupon) refurbished (not AIO but you can put the savings towards an AIO inkjet when they drop below $50 and end up with a much better setup than the Canon)
https://www.brother.ca/en/p/RHLL5000D

$95 refurbished (not sure about that store though but doesn't hurt to give them a call).

1 The no-monthly-fee 15-page plan is not available to new customers or transferrable to a new printer, and you will not be able to return to the no-monthly-fee plan if you upgrade or cancel.

Likewise. And, I got a month of extra rollover pages from the $1.25 plan.

Also on the free plan, do you know if I print over 15 pages and had to pay for the extra 10 pages, will the paid unused pages roll over to next month? Or they will just disappear at the end of the billing cycle?

True though the number of rollable pages is capped at 3 times the monthly allowance.

I thought that any set of 10 did not roll over (after the free 15 of course) if there were any unused pages. For instance, if I printed my free 15 and then printed only 1 more page, I would be charged $1.25 and those remaining 9 pages would be lost. At least that’s what HP would want, no? I would be more than happy to be wrong on this Grinning Face
