    Once they get a taste of that market share it’s hard for them to give it up. So they’ll start doing this shit to keep people in their ecosystem. They make nothing on their printers and hope to make it up with ink/toner sales. So they want you on their brand.

    Fuck printers, fuck print drivers, fuck toner and definitely fuck fax machines. Watching a nurse print something to fax it somewhere else, then for that person to scan it back in. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. All they do is generate waste.

      honestly one of the things I had no idea about was how fucked up windows printer drivers were. I used to think it was just because they were all crap, but then I fully moved to linux and discovered that Microsoft is the issue! Printers just work in linux.
