All Epsion we have had have broken very fast even with genuine ink.

Canon ones so far never (oldest 8 year old at least).

I would avoid non-OEM inks. They can actually ruin a printer.  I've seen it happen.

That is why I need a new printer :/

That depends, you have to alternate the ink, use an original ink, when original ends change to non original,and when non original ends again with original and keep alternating that way, 1 original 1 not original.

I don't use non original ink but using it that way won't damage your printer

I have use non oem ink on my epson nx415 and its been working strong for 3 years now. I know ink quality is not the same as oem but price is unbeateable ,i use a matte photo paper call viastone which i bought a ton at the .99 cents a few years ago 100 sheets $1 . It takes longer to dry than oem ink but i have no problem with that, one thing with using non oem is that if you want to use oem again you need to swap all the ink carts..  I use it mostly for ps2 ,ps1,dreamcast and most disc base games. I have not really started casing on ugc yet , waiting on alternatives...most of my favorite games on disc base system i have original artwork but for the game disc only i used my trusty epson.
