    No, we hate their fucking printers as well. Non-removable printheads and automatic retraction to try to stop you from unclogging their shit hardware. I’d also include the firmware in critique of their printers, what you mention above, as well as limiting black printing if color is low (even with dedicated black cartridges). Arbitrarily restricting scanning on some models, etc.

    We decidedly DO hate their printers.

      That are all symptoms of said business model. And Hewlett Packard isn’t the only company with such abominations.
