I have a really old one that doesn’t to part pairing so it’s worth holding on to. The ink expiration, refill and status is still locked and it still can flag specific ink cartridges as “no good” though. I might have to steal all the information in the post so I can build my one ones of these before hp sues everyone involved.

Great news for the population segment that was dumb enough to buy an HP printer in the last 20 years, yet is smart enough to perform this operation!

I have a rather old office laser from like 20 years ago and it is amazing. No DRM and I buy really cheap ink cartridges. The HP site does sell my cartridge still… For over $200.

My HP printer is 15 years old and we are not changing it until it breaks.
We are used to refill cartridges with a ink syringe.

Dad is that you? :D
Unfortunately he bought a “modern” HP a few years back. It’s a nightmare.
