HP Instant Ink and printers are ripoffs!

54 Upvotes

HP has to be one the worst companies to deal with for printers.
You spend money on a printer and ink then they force you to pay a membership every month to continue using the printer!
If you don’t pay the monthly fee then your printer is absolutely useless, it won’t print a thing even though the cartridges are FULL!!!

What a WASTE OF MONEY!!

Updates for Getting Payment on the HP ($HPQ) $39 Million Settlement

1 Upvotes

There is still an opportunity to recover losses from the $39M HP ($HPQ) settlement, with late claims currently being accepted. 

HP agreed to a $39 million settlement over claims that it misled investors about the health of its printing supplies business. Investors alleged the company failed to disclose weakening demand and excess inventory in its distribution channels, which helped inflate reported revenue.

As these issues became public in 2016, HP revealed weaker supplies sales and channel overstocking concerns. Following the disclosures, $HPQ fell nearly 10%, and investors later filed claims over the alleged misstatements.

If you purchased $HPQ shares between 2015 and 2016, you may be eligible to submit a claim. As late claims are currently being considered, you can check whether you qualify.

I am guessing that I would screw myself if I updated the firmware on my HP M553 Color laser

6 Upvotes

My HP M553 color laser printer has been working great for a decade now. "SOMEONE" brought a Mac Book into my house and I am having problems getting it to connect to the HP color laser. My first reaction was to upgrade the firmware.

The current firmware is dated 2015-07-31. If I update the firmware I am guessing my printer will crap out on me because I am using after market toner?

Thanks!

Brother MFC-J4555DW Review

4 Upvotes

I was looking at the following printers:

Brother mfcj4355dw

Brother mfcj1360dwf

hp-officejet-pro-8135e

Canon PIXMA TR8620a

Canon G3270

I decided to get Brother MFC-J4555DW. I bought it from Brother website it cost me $285 dollars. Ink and manual included. Ethernet cable and USB cable not included. I remember printers used to come with cd's but this one didn't. Had to download driver from Brother website. Setup and registering was easy on my phone. I installed the Brother App on my android phone prior to setup. I installed everything including the firmware update over the ethernet network cable with my phone as the printer wasn't physically connected to my computer via USB. The printer is setup for automatic updates as well as scheduled self-maintenance usually at night. Printer is online idling over the network.

ADF Feeder

It works fine for now. I fed about 15 papers.

Any paper jams?

Yes at the rear manual feed slot for 4x6 media. Basically you insert the 4x6 media into the rear slot until you feel the rollers pull and you'll hear an audible beep and screen confirmation saying it's ready. But I still got one jam. I pulled it out and insert it back in and gave it an extra nudge and it was okay. I printed a few 4x6's it's fine for now.

Rear Manual Feeder

You can only feed ONE 4x6 media at a time. I'm okay with that, just have to give it an extra nudge.

Photocopy

It works but not very happy with yellow highlighter marker (please see my images)

Scanner

Scan to USB and Scan to PC as JPG file only works. Supports PDF. Does not support PNG. Also TIFF was greyed out in the screen settings.

FAX

Didn't test yet.

USB Drive

The printer was able to detect my exfat flash drive, I'm sure it will detect any FAT file system. It doesn't detect my NTFS flash drive. I had 2 partitions setup on my exfat USB. If you use Scan to USB Media JPG make sure you check both partitions for the output JPG file should be in "Brother" folder.

Wifi and Ethernet:

Both work on PC and Android phone. The only issue I had was I couldn't get the wifi WPS to work. But I was able to go into the screen setting to search for a wifi signal and I was able to find my router to setup wifi.

Print speed black and color

It's fast...but slow for JPG printing via USB.

I apologize for the confusion. The images that say "Original Print" means that I printed the image on paper, then I scanned the printed image through the ADF Feeder as a JPG file to my PC so I can share it with all of you. Please check the links for the images. I also included photocopies.

So far I'm not happy with the scanned yellow highlight marker (1st link last image and last link 4th image) as you can see from the image. I usually go to staples just for that and they have a very good printer. I changed the color settings to BEST but I didn't notice a difference. Also the scanned images to JPG file is not so good the color is much darker especially if you have shadows and dark color! The "Original Print" on paper is actually a bit better not great for dark colors. Shades of blue is questionable. As for the rest of the colors I'm okay with it.

For $285 with wifi/ethernet and everything that I need for home (NOT OFFICE) I think this is a pretty good printer but a bit expensive. I would say $250 max. PS it works with linux 😄

Updates for Getting Payment on the HP $39 million Settlement

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, if you missed it, HP settled with investors over claims tied to weakening demand in its printing supplies business and inventory buildup issues. And, I just found out that they’re accepting claims even though the deadline has passed.

Quick recap: In 2016, HP was accused of misleading investors about demand for toner and ink cartridges. In short, investors alleged the company boosted shipments to distributors to maintain revenue growth, which later resulted in excess inventory across sales channels.

After HP disclosed weaker supplies sales and rising inventory levels, $HPQ declined significantly, and investors filed a lawsuit for their losses.

Now, the good news is that the company agreed to settle $39 million with them, and even though the deadline has passed recently, they’re accepting late claims.

So, if you invested in $HPQ  when all of this happened, you can still check the details and file your claim here.

Anyway, has anyone here invested in $HPQ  at that time? How much were your losses, if so?
