We're talking about the same company that tries to "gift" free months of ink in exchange of buying only genuine (and overpriced) HP ink for the rest of the printer's lifetime, and obviously if you accept you can't use the printer offline.

I still have an "old" HP printer and, as long as it works, I'll keep it, but seeing their practices I don't know if I would choose HP again for a new printer
