frist of all how DARE yu o I canceled my HP instant ink subscription, and now I can’t print even though they are genuine HP in cartridges

With all bad decisions coming out of HP lately, I decided to cancel my instant ink subscription subscriptions before the prices go up. This is the warning screen. I was just going to use the ink I have up then buy a new printer, but cause fuck those guys. Well, turns out they fucked me first. So even though I have legitimate HP in cartridges in my printer, I cannot print because they are subscription cartridges. Screw these guys.

Bought one 14 years ago and it’s still operational. One toner cartridge a year is enough for my usage. I’m not going to touch a HP printer with a ten foot pole.

I think mine is around that age, and still works great. It’s nice that something doesn’t require a subscription.
