Fuck HP. My wife has an HP printer at work that she can’t print to without an app.

The app drains her iPad battery in 4 hours so she had to remove it but kept it on her phone.

She can’t print to our Brother at home because the app intercepts the share/print capability.

Such a piece of shit company.
