Thank God we no longer have any Anti Trust Laws!!!!
In my HP laser printer a couple weeks ago, It did a firmware upgrade and it made my scanner quit working, took a couple hours and HP scanner tools, Reinstalling the software it came with wouldn’t make it work. It was a real pain in the ass to get it up and running again. Yes I have TrueImage cartridges in it.
I have literally HATED the printer since I bought it, it came with MeToo Software Factory installed. You literally can NOT do anything without walking over to the damn thing and pushing the OK button.
I will NEVER buy another HP product, it is 4 years old and I am about to toss it in the trash
I bought my last hp printer because it was less expensive than buying the 2 replacement ink cartridges (even non-hp brand) and it was also wireless.
I get home and install it only to find out that hp wants access to a bank account so they can charge for EACH PAGE I PRINT !!! I found out that if the wireless is not on and it is hardwired to the computer that the bank account crap can be bypassed.
However when I moved either it was left in the trash pile by my b.i.l. or was stolen by someone helping with the move. The older hp that needed ink made the move but the scan glass got broken.
I’m waiting for the price of the Epson Ink Tank Printers to drop some more and then get one of them.
I’m happy with my various Kyocera laser printers.
