Our printers are unreliable pieces of absolute shit guys. But if you do the subscription we'll replace your shitty broken rental printer next day. Never worry that you can't print when you need to print. Mindblowing.
Just make reliable printers that work, dumbasses.
Again, you mean. My LJ4 was sold at 20 years old, more due to toner scarcity than any real problem.
Nailed it. I currently have an HP Laserjet 2100 for home printing and it is around 20 years old and going strong. Now you’ve made me think I should maybe order some toner ahead…
They still want to be hated, just less.
Who's the halfwit that came up with that line lmao
Yup. That slogan is the end result of a long line of bad company decisions.
Just 6 months ago replaced my 1996 IBM Laser printer.
And it probably still works, keeps saying "paper jam" though I've cleaned it out. Probably a bad sensor/switch. I'll fix it some time.
Dont buy hp?
If they made reliable printers that worked, they wouldn't have a business because everyone would have a reliable printer that worked and hp would have no one left to sell printers to. The problem has always been the shortcomings of shareholder capitalism.
