Why is printing so damn expensive? $60 for a cheap printer and then another $60 for ink, all to use maybe once or twice a month.

Printer ink is probably the most expensive liquid on the planet by volume.
Printer ink is a scam. Shitcoin
One reason why public library exists
I buy „fake“ ink on eBay for years always had a great printing quality.
A laser printer is always a better deal than an ink printer for home use. Ironically ink printers are only economical for large volumes, and when they are rigged up with large reservoirs. Laser printers, though a larger investment, can idle for years or be turned off without use and still function properly because the toner never goes bad.
