Canon Pixma 4250 AIO Printer/Copier/Scanner

Have had the above product a few years now, bought from new, initially worked great.
Have replaced the inks a few times but now it just won't print at all despite me trying lots of things, head cleaning, distilled water to clear jammed print heads etc.
Am I best throwing it in the bin and buying another cheapo product or does anyone anywhere fix em? thanks.
 
Just don't get an HP printer with an "instant ink" subscription. HP are known to disable printers so you can't scan or copy when you run out of "ink", or if you're card expires on subscription.

I'm a Canon fan because the ones I have bought use the cheaper compatible cartridges - which is the real cost, not the machine itself.

That depends on what you want to use your printer for. I have a printer that has been within HP "Instant Ink" for six and a half years on the 500 pages per month plan. It has saved us absolutely hundreds, if not thousands of pounds, in ink costs, as well as ink cartridges always arriving by post without request and before they are needed.

I accept what you are saying, but rather than suggesting that folks don't enroll in "Instant Ink", it would be more constructive to advocate that users go into the system with full awareness of both the advantages and disadvantages.
