macOS Sequoia is now available
I have a HP envy Photo 7858. It made me
use the HP smart app. I do not like it because it wants me to pay a monthly fee for their ink and If I go over on amount of papers I print charges extra..... I feel this is not right because I purchase the ink from them, and I buy my own printer paper... So I want to know what is a better printer option.
iMac 27″, macOS 14.1
I am think of going to epson or Brother..

If the HP works without the extra subscription cost, then keep using it. If not, then shame on HP.
I personally have always used and recommend Epson printers. The latest Epson Eco-Tank Printers cost a little more upfront, but are very economical in the long run if you print lot of doc's and/or photo's.
Although I still have a Canon AIO printer, my next one will probably be an Epson.
If you print photos, I'd probably recommend getting one of their Photo all in ones. The Photo models have additional colors for better photo printing. If you don't, then their standard all in ones would be fine.
Either way, I'd go with the Eco tank models, as that's the least expensive way of getting ink.
There is no one best printer, as different folks have different requirements, budgets, needs.
Whatever printer you do pick, it should have AirPrint support.
Some background on the selection: Which Printer Should I Buy? - Apple Community
Local preference is a Brother non-subscription laser printer. One with AirPrint.
Thank you for the info. HP smart app is just another way for HP to make extra money.
I have the HP LaserJet M110w and it offered the subscription ink service when I first set it up which I turn down. So cancel the subscription and continue to use the printer buying your paper and toner/ink where you always purchase it. There is no need to be stuck in a subscription service.
HP has locked up my printer. Since I have cancelled. So I will go to staples and buy their ink and try it first, before I purchase another printer.
what is the best Printer for Mac?
