You didn't bought it you rented it!

I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

This is just anecdotal, but I work in IT and I can’t recall a brother printer ever giving me a headache. HP is obviously the worst.

HP is obviously the worst.

HP is special kind of printers shitcompany. They probably spent years on doing market research to understand what people NOT want, so they can do exactly that. 😂

HP used to make rock solid laser printers back in the late 90s and 00s. Shame what they turned into.

I recently had an HP printer to set up for a client (IT as well), and it only had USB 2.0 and Ethernet interfaces. The printer needed an internet connection and activation online before it would even let you print over USB, and of course the Ethernet port was dead and wouldn't connect, so now it's just a shitty white brick with HP stamped on it. At least they were able to return but how does that make sense in practice?
