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
Comment on You didn't bought it you rented it!

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.

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.

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
