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 don’t think it’s the same printer/issue but recently my brother printer that I bought in '21 decided it was out of toner and refused print without replacing the toner. I forget what setting I had to find to reset it but it works fine now, on the same toner cartridge I bought with the printer (I don’t print often).
Off the top of my head it was a dcp-l2550dw, can’t check it right now.
It was mildly annoying to deal with, I remember the instructions not working exactly and having to troubleshoot, I can’t recall what I had to do to fix it. I can imagine somebody with less time on their hands just giving in and replacing the toner.
