Avoid HP Printers At All Costs

I've had an HP Officejet 6962 for years. For the most part, it's been fine, beyond the usual printer issues. (Which honestly isn't saying much, but I digress.)

Went to print out some forms I need to fill out and, lo and behold, I can't use the brand new ink I just bought.

Why?

These are non-HP ink cartridges, but I've gotten them in the past and they've been fine. It's literally been months, maybe a year, since we needed to print anything.

HOWEVER

HP recently pushed out a firmware update to make it IMPOSSIBLE to use your printer without their brand of cartridges.

For record, these cartridges - a brand I've reliably used for years - cost like $35-$40 bucks.

HP's brand of the same cartridges cost $75 - $84, depending on if there's a sale or not.

So, that's fun. [/seething sarcasm]

Apparently, in non-US countries, HP has been fined for pulling shit like this.

So, yeah, if you're in the US, avoid HP products.

I hate HP, they released a subscription plan where you can "rent a printer" for like what, $7 a month but you can only print 20 pages per month, and you can get fined for over more than the printer cost from what I heard.

HP is the type of company where they would remove double sided printing and lock it behind a paid DLC I hate this company. Hell I heard you can't even use some of the stuff with other printers (like scanning) if it either: ran out of ink OR no internet connection (I could be wrong on this one, or it could be both, I wouldn't be surprised)

#back when i put my printer into my room after years of not using it #i was setting it up right. i didnt have much experience w set up but when they asked me to make an account #so i can fucking print #and i have to jump 500 hoops to delete the account again #i am so fucking mad i hate them so much #if i had to make a list of entities or people that i hate. itd be elon number 1 and HP number 2 #etc

this news is devastating. HP Scuderia Ferrari is not a serious name

#at least mission winnow sounded decent #hp printers are constantly fucking not working for me #& all the zionist involvement. seriously. #my expectations were low but holy fuck

Okay. Quick vaguepost before I catch up on shit I was supposed to do a couple hours ago.

Just saw a post grace my dash about a proshipper who is apparently disgusting and beyond recourse and the only evidence I saw was screenshots of beyond harmless shit. Just them posting about what they wanted to ship. I'm sorry, what?

How are we so far gone that that is enough to kick a storm up over? I already don't like antis for a variety of reasons, but what the hell? Leave this person alone. The block button exists for a reason, and until they do anything that could actually result in tangible harm, you will forever look really goddamn stupid. I hope you learn and change, but whatever. I might as well follow my own advice and block.

Uh, excuse the rant. I have strong opinions on the fact that people have strong opinions over what other people can ship. It's fiction, for Christ's sake! Stop being such assholes about it.

#antis dni I am not in the fucking mood #I've heard that proshippers can be insufferable but my entire experience on the interact has been antis doing just that #I think antis are fucking stupid and need to touch some grass #maybe have some nice dinner with your family and reconsider priorities #whatever #why am I so annoyed again? #oh yea #hp printers should be destroyed honestly #I hate this stupid piece of junk #unma rants #anti anti

I hate being the “computer smart person” at my job cause this brand new printer and I have been fighting all day and I know I’m not the one winning 🥲

#fuck you hp design better printers! #and we just got it so I’m not allowed to throw it out a window

Swear to god if I was actually a proper reddit user I’d be posting the stupidest AITA posts

#so my friend rang me asking if i could print something out. mind you i got her message saying that and i was responding and she literally #didn’t even give me one minute to answer. so i answer the phone already annoyed because it’s like.. where the hell is the fire #i’m trying to eat my tea here and you make me leap out of my seat to answer the landline because you can’t wait 30 seconds for a reply. why #so i answer the phone and she sounds like she’s been crying so i’m like ‘god what’s this thing she needs me to print… a ransom note??’ #why was it a template for a gingerbread house. so i’m like ‘yes of course i’ll print it. are you okay though’ she says she has an upper #respiratory infection. i’m like ‘that’s fucked up. i’ll print your thing but are you sure you should be cooking for people’ #she’s like ‘thank you so so much ellen i’m so sorry for putting you out; i’ll pay you’ and like. here’s where i will freely admit that i was #being a dick. but i have told her a million times before to STOP offering me money for random stupid favours like printing literally one (1) #document for her or giving her kid a bag of crisps to keep her quiet or something. it drives me crazy when she does this because it makes me #feel like she’s trying to imply that i’m that much of a frugal penny pincher that i’m going to sit here and calculate how much a piece of #paper and a millilitre of ink costs me and charge for that miniscule sum. or like i view our friendship as transactional or something #which could not be further from the truth. like bitch i’d give you a kidney no questions asked. stop offering me money to print your shit #and she’s soooo apologetic over it too; she’s like apologising for being alive. and the self flagellating bullshit drives me CRAZY #like it does not cause me any trouble whatsoever to open one singular application on my phone and click two buttons. my printer is plugged #in 24-7 because that’s how it tells HP when it’s out of ink and to send more. a service i pay 99p a month for mind you. i don’t notice #i don’t care. most of the time i make my granddad buy my printer paper because he shows up here unannounced asking me to print dozens #of flyers from his club and doesn’t otherwise offer payment so i’m like ‘well can you buy some paper since i now have none’ #so what i said to her was ‘if you offer me money one more time i’m never printing anything for you again’ which i think bamboozled her #i was like ‘i’m printing it now. pick it up whenever you want just don’t offer money’ she’s like ‘but i was just thinking—‘ #‘DON’T FUCKING THINK’ yeah that was an overreaction possibly. but i was just like. i don’t want to hear your justification for why you want #to give me 5p or something for printing your stupid gingerbread house template. don’t tell me it. i disagree with it #if you want to pay for your shit to be printed that fucking badly you can go to the library #so anyway she messaged me saying ‘i’m not coming over because i don’t want to argue’ i didn’t reply but i was literally just sitting there #thinking… we don’t have to argue. i’ve told you my terms. just don’t offer me money for stupid little favours and you won’t hear an argument #from me. that’s all #i honestly feel like she’s just offering me money because she knows it makes me mad. she loves annoying me. well she’s succeeded #AITA? yes but also for the love of godddd will you just LISTEN to me. if it’s a joke it’s not fucking funny at this point it’s just annoying #personal #rant

My little $50 printer that I bought on a whim with absolutely no internet or wireless capabilities whatsoever is better than 99% of other modern printers. It only failed me once and has since learned it's lesson and now I would follow it into mordor. My brother my ally my comrade in arms.

What I'm saying is stop buying the nice shiny fancy printers just because wireless printing sounds useful literally just get the most useless bastard you can and 90% of your printer problems disappear

Stop trying to print from a macOS/iOS device to an HP printer and expect to have the same functionalities you'd have from a Windows... Really... Just stop giving me this insufferable kind of headaches at work...

[homunculus-argument]

The thing I like the best about modern art is that there's either a really brilliant and deep meaning behind this piece that's, like, a stack of twenty HP Officejet printers that are currently melting onto the gallery floor due to the little toy car that keeps scooting underneath them with a lit candle, or then the artist is just fucking with you. And you legit can't tell.

And if you ever get the opportunity to ask the artist, there's like a 50% chance of them just going "wouldn't you like to know, weatherboy."

[saintofpride201]

Now's a good time to just stop getting HP printers...

This is not only dystopian, it's stupid as fuck. They really think people can't just jailbreak their printers to get them to work properly? If you can run DOOM on the fuckers, you most certainly can run a jailbreak to bypass their shitty "security check".

... I can't even believe I had to say the words "jailbreak" and "printer" in the same sentence. That's how far we've come

that Ferrari special livery truly lives up to HP sponsorship cause those blue elements on the car look like when a printer can’t print a certain color and substitutes it with this exact fucking shade of blue

I had a sudden pang of missing Narrative Telephone, so... a compliation of some of my favourite moments:

And when he saw the wolf, the wolf had a beak?

You did what you did, because you did what you had to do and you did it because you had to do what you did, and you set BOUNDARIES.

The other two children apparently just stand there and watch this happen and are like ‘my turn!’

His beautiful lover, Sudara! [thirty seconds later] What was her name again? Sahara? [thirty seconds later] And the letter was addressed to his lady, uh... Serena!

I am a member of the Clasp, as we all LOVE to announce!

And I was like ‘fuck you’ and they were like ‘drink this!’

It was a ken-KOO! This kenKOO is just dead! That’s why it’s a corpse!

And then from downstairs there arose such a clatter, they all went downstairs and saw a bunch of food on platters! And Beau was like, ‘no no no don’t touch, it’s poisoned.’ [beat] So nobody ate the food.

The hippogriff’s name is Schmoopsy Ploopsy. Which might have been what the Ruby of the Sea was doing, so this hippogriff’s name is boning, but in Zemnian.

ADULA! Adula, I do love ya! I don’t know what I’d do, I’d do without ya! ‘Cause I love ya, Adula!

‘Are you a crone? Just tell me!!!’ And she said ‘JA!!! OMNOMNOM!’
