3. Epson has always had cheaper ink

And I get it at Clinkinks.com to boot. But… the newer Epsons, in order to reduce the footprint, have copied HP's paper feed that goes around a roller before it hits the print heads. That means loading paper upside down. That also means printing both side in sequence is a pain in the ass. And it is damn near impossible to print a photo on heavy paper.

So no, I don't have a printer recommendation these days. I've grown to hate Epson.
