I remember the advice to buy a brother circa 2015-2017. Apparently it has changed? Personally unsure, I just bought one, as I worked backwards from "which printer has the cheapest toner" and it is still brother.

There is no way to force the business models to keep printing on a full cartridge that has met its page limit(per reviews on Amazon), and the salesman at a store told me brothers have replaceable parts in them now besides the toner carts that they force you to replace.
