HP went to shit ages ago, it is pretty common knowledge not to buy consumer grade HP printers. I am sorry you had to find out this way!

Their computers are crap too. At least the cheaper end ones that people fall for.
Yeah, don’t. It should be illegal to sell those pieces of shit with Intel Celeron, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of eMMC soldered storage running Windows 11. You’ll be using 80% of CPU sitting at the desktop, 60% of RAM, and 20GB of free storage after removing the bloat of Windows 11.
I don’t know about their higher end computers, but I always hate when someone brings me one of these pieces of shit and asks me to help them set it up.
I am also reminded of trying to get support for one of our HP monitors at work. We bought 400 of the same model monitors for our offices and one of them ended up going out. A director had two of them sitting side by side on her desk and one of them started going out. We hadn’t had these things for a full year when this happened.
Contacted HP support and they wouldn’t do shit for me until I formatted Windows to “confirm” it was the monitor despite me already saying I’ve tried multiple computers, other cables, even HDMI and DisplayPort, and even going as far as different power cables and outlets…no. HP “support” said they wouldn’t honor their warranty unless I formatted the computer. I lied and told them I did just so I could get the warranty I was owed. Still wasn’t good enough. They needed to see the receipt and the receipt needed to have the serial number on it. wtf…we bought these in bulk. This isn’t fucking CVS where the receipt is the length of a new movie’s red carpet with all the serial numbers. “Sorry, can’t help you.”
Fuck HP.
