HP fails to derail claims that it bricks scanners on multifunction printers when ink runs low::HP Inc. has failed to shunt aside claims in a lawsuit that it disables scanners and other functions on its multifunction printers whenever the ink runs low
HP, permanent member of my shit list.
The thing is, HP is too big to be labeled like this. Their measurement equipment was and still some of the best, although Agilent bought them. Their calculators are awesome. Just printer department, god damn it. It’s as if their HR requires list of asshole moves for each potential employee and then choses worst.
Their servers and storage systems are absolute garbage.
If enough people quit buying ANY HP product because of their shitty printers, they would be incentivized to make it better.
