@monkeyben @isocat @pluralistic it's even worse. If your payment method expires you aren't allowed to use the perfectly good ink already in the printer that you already paid for via the subscription service.

@DragonBard @pluralistic @monkeyben @isocat BTW... I'm thinking of buying a laser printer. Is there some brand that works well in Linux, and I can use whatever ink i want? Some years ago I always used HP , but now they have that ink slavery contract. Don't know how other brands behave

wow! I hadn't heard of that one. That's crazy. I haven't owned a printer in years. I guess I'll have to be careful and research it if I do want to buy one. CC: @monkeyben@mastodon.sdf.org @isocat@tiggi.es @pluralistic@mamot.fr
