Yeah, the abuse of DNA makes me piooke too. Heck! Even some shoes and cars tout it now(??)
Now what did you ask? Ah, printers. Well, I have always favoured Epson, but a friend always went for Canon.
We're still fighting, though I only had an A3 printer for a couple of years. It broke down twice, the second time I ditched it. While it ran it was great.
I haven't been disposed to do the experiment since, and I've stuck to A4. It is still going after quite a few years. Pity about the ink cost.
(Excuse this more rant than reply.)
