The suit, filed earlier this year, argues that HP all-in-one printers stop all functions when ink levels reach some arbitrary point.
I’m in IT, and anything HP can just fuck off.
Edit to add: Never buy any printer that comes with an ink/toner subscription service.
“Hey, can you scan this document for me?”
I’m sorry, your magenta ink is low.
“But … I’m not printing anything? None of what I need uses ink.”
MAGENTA. I REQUIRE MAGENTA.
I’m not sure there’s a brand out there that’s safe at this point, but I don’t think I would buy HP consumer products regardless of the price. At some point. Though to counter, it seems any company will do whatever the customers/regulators will let them get away with, especially if people keep buying them.
Haven’t bought a HP since their support told me to just buy a new printer and that the warning message wasn’t going away even though they could not confirm anything was wrong with it
