      Are their printers bad? I haven’t even tried any in decades because their business practices are so awful, but I always thought that at the very least the printers themselves should be good.

      Sadly, Brother’s printers might be going on the same direction now.

        HP has gotten in trouble multiple times now for firmware updates that intentionally brick their own printers, usually in an effort to stop people from using 3rd-party ink. Their system for verifying authentic ink is unreliable though so everytime they do it they also brick a bunch of printers that are overpaying for HP ink.

        Generally HP is the poster child for the worst inkjet printer company.

        My understanding is the Brother fiasco turned out to be baseless. At the very least, nobody else has stepped forward to corroborate the issues that were claimed.
