The suit, filed earlier this year, argues that HP all-in-one printers stop all functions when ink levels reach some arbitrary point.

    It bugs me to hear that. My mantra for years has been “Buy a Brother printer, they just work”. Do you know what model of Brother had a HP style limitation, and what the limitation was? I’d like to educate myself before I recommend them again.

      I had a Brother MFC something that had page counts on the toner cartridges: they would only print so many pages before saying they were out of ink, regardless of how much ink was left. You could access a secret menu and reset the counts using a special button sequence, but it was a gigantic pain at the time.
