I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

        You don’t actually need to be aware of it. Because you said you were aware of it, when you clicked Accept on the EULA, and on page 62 of the EULA it said they have the right to disable your printer remotely at any time and for any reason.

    Other than the recent nonsense, this is why I cancelled Netflix and went back to pirating. Content leaves unexpectedly? Not on my Nas.

      I’ve taken to de-DRMing any e-books I bought from Amazon for that reason.

      Also, the “You can only view this book on 3 devices” – yeah … fuck off.

      Calibre + DeDRM plugin + KFX plugin. Perfectly legal too, as long as you aren’t distributing them.

    Third voice for a Brother. I used to work an office supply store and they were by far the most reliable printers we sold.

      I’ve had my Brother printer for several years and never had an issue. I don’t have the color one, just black and white. Would buy again.

    Welcome to the future you now have to pay a sub or learn how to jail break your printer to get full use of it owner ship is almost dead folks time to break up big printer so you can refill your ink cartridges and print without a subscription
