Not really. I had an Epson multifunction that wouldn’t scan because I had an aftermarket ink cart in it. I confirmed with their tech support. I removed the non-OEM cart and still it wouldn’t scan until I put a fresh OEM one in. I didn’t even give it to goodwill; I recycled it. No one should have to put up with that bullshit. I won’t touch Epson products from now on. I bought a Brother laser multifunction and it runs like it should.
All your worries with printers disappear the moment you replace them with a scanner.
And your scanner worries disappear when you replace it with just taking photos of documents with your phone
Nah, lightning is always bad.

Watch out HP will probably disable scanning too.
