Epson says “High-capacity Black (T252XL120): About 1100 pages” That cartridge is available for about $20 so figure about 2 cents per page. You would need to buy Epson cartridges, not after-market stuff. These inks are getting pretty high tech.
I got good value from by AP2610 – probably had it more than 15 years. But these laser printers can develop problems where there are lots of artifacts. You shouldn’t have any of that with an inkjet technology.
