I don’t get people buying HP printers either. They did make really good printers 2~3 decades ago (absolutely loved my Deskjet 695C and the cartridges weren’t really hard to refill), but recently their printers are nothing more than e-waste.

Today you should just get a Brother laser printer.

our HP Envy model lasted ,i shit you not, 5 months.

our epson eco-tank we got after that happily prints away 2 years after we bought it without issue. i think we refilled the colors once, and the black 2 times now. for 10€ a bottle.

Eeeh, I had a black and white (well, black) inkjet from HP in the 90s’ and the ink would always dry out. I don’t think I ever managed to finish a cartridge on that thing.

Inkjets have always sucked. Lasers all the way, even for colour. And if you want to print photos, go through a lab, it’s way cheaper anyway.

Do they think this kind of shit happens in a bubble!? That people who know better don’t read the news?? Any time I can, I order Lexmark, Epson, and Brother printers/faxes, as well as Dell and Lenovo PCs/laptops/servers/peripherals to replace anything HP.

Seriously, HP printers are so bad, they’ve soured me on the whole company, despite not having personality owned one in the past decade. These kinds of predatory, dishonest, anti-consumer practices from the top down is the sign of a company I want no part of.

Brother printers are great. If only because they don't add all the pointless bullshit add-on "features" that everyone else does.

Brother printers, they're just printers. Nothing more, nothing less.

They also take third party ink.

Empricorn ,

We’re kind of locked in to Lexmark for most of our printers, but I thought Brother printers now disallow 3rd-party ink/toner? Not their fax machines though, and still better than HP…

To put it another way: HP printers are so poorly designed that ink cartridges are vectors for viruses

If you would just continuously use our proprietary, wireless DRM-enabled, subscription disinfectant, the wounds we keep cutting into you will (likely) remain uninfected

We created a completely unnecessary security vulnerability in the device we sold you. Better buy our overpriced ink cartridges to ensure no one exploits it.

"HP has issued a recall on its print cartridges after a security issue allowed hackers to gain access to their source code."

Way back in the day HP was one of the best technology companies around. They were innovative, produced high quality products, and were a good place to work. It makes me sad that HP is now one of the worst tech companies and has among the strongest anti-consumer attitudes.

HMU on telegram if you got verified Id.me let hit $100k upwards and split @pounddc1

metaStatic ,

We've known what HP is since the 90s, if you still own a HP product it's kind of on you now.

SeaJ ,

This problem was solved decades ago: don’t have circuits on the ink cartridge.

Exhibit A of why CEOs get paid way too much. He made $22 million in 2022. A CEO should have at least a attic understanding of statements they make to the public. This guy cannot even handle that much.

Jfc, what a fucking arrogant asshole. An asshole asshole for saying it, arrogant because he thinks anyone will believe it

Also: brothers at least only blocks the third party inks from working.

What a flaming pile of bullshit: HP is cancer when it comes to consumer printers.

The only reason the attack vector exists in the first place is because they introduced it to price gouge the shit out of their customers.
