Ender 3 v3 SE is $109 refurbished on eBay, and Ender 3 v3 KE is $135 refurbished on eBay. The A1 or A1 mini would be a good first 3d printer. The A1 mini has a fan for its board, and the A1 doesn’t. You can still get a ventilated enclosure with a fan for the A1, but I don’t know if it’s recommended because the board doesn’t have a fan. I got a A1 mini and this enclosure . The centauri carbon would be a no brainer if it was available. Some people have had problems with their centauri carbon tho. More on reddit.com

How much do you estimate that you will print each month? And do you want duplex scanning from Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) or is single page enough? I can agree that the Officejet Pro 8025 is a good option. It's basically as near office printer you can come but still stay in the consumer segment when it comes to HP printer. Based on how much you will print I would also recommend to look into Instant Ink if that would be a viable option. Many in here hate it because it's a subscription model based on how many pages you print per month and you get ink shipped whenever you need it, but I myself honestly thinks it's great and it fit my needs. Many HP printers comes with x months of free Instant Ink and after that you can always cancel it if you want and just buy regular ink cartridges. No shilling, just informing about it. If I could I would also try to recommend any other brand but I don't know them honestly so I have nothing to add there. More on reddit.com

Congrats on your printer, just be aware that A1 series isn’t meant to be enclosed for prolonged periods, as its motherboard and other electronics aren’t rated for high temperatures. More on reddit.com
