In your case the cheapest printer is the best printer. I bought a $59 HP 7 years ago and it just pooped the bed this week. So I went out and bought a $49 HP.
I had one in my old garage, worked well. The kitchen was next to the garage, so I put a shutoff valve under the sink, because the last thing I wanted was to go into the crawl space in January to fix a broken pipe.
