I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

This is generally for a business lease contract with HP. I've never seen this done to a printer the person buys outright, only for contracted leased "pay-per-use" printers.

[–] iAmTheTot@kbin.social 43 points 1 year ago (4 children)

HP does an ink subscription thing. They will try to trick you into it, too, so I'm sure lots of people sign up without realizing just by trying to use their printer software. Anyway, that ink stops working if you stop paying.

[–] Sneptaur@pawb.social 23 points 1 year ago

Yeah I looked into it, some models require the HP+ subscription to work. That's only on some of their loss leader models but still misleading, so that's still shitty

[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

They come with a cartridge and "six months free ink" if you register.

But if you register and then six months later realize you never use it and you cancel...

They lock the cartridge

Yeah no thanks on ink subscription. Also, my printer still works great... but HP forgot how to write software apparently so now I use a 3rd party android print app. Ugh. I'm kind of fed up with the HP experience lately.

[–] 0235@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yes. Co-worker got a super cheap printer, and then tried to cancel the ink subscription. turns out he couldn't just buy ink from them, and his printer was useless.

[–] w3dd1e@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah. It happened to me too. And they wouldn’t let me use the full ink cartridge I had because it was tied to the subscription. I had to go buy a completely separate ink cartridge and disconnect some other thing to print a stupid form. Fuck HP
