Comment on HP+ Seems Sketchy

Comments

Some HN users in "Tell HN: HP printers force you into agreement" (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33936862) suggested to avoid any HP printers where the serial number ends in 'e'. "Dont get a HP+ printer. HP printers come in two fashions. A plain version and a HP+ one."

In the past I had luck (on MS Windows) using a generic postscript driver, the lowest common standard going back 20 years.

Thanks for the link. I knew i was ignorant on the subject, Just seemed like a great deal. Apparently too good to be true.

HP 4SI used to be something I used everywhere. Doubt they work on rented printers, which is 100% what this is.
