Judge denies HP’s plea to throw out all-in-one printer lockdown lawsuit - AiO devices won’t scan or fax without ink, and plaintiffs say IT giant illegally withheld that info from buyers::AiO devices won’t scan or fax without ink, and plaintiffs say IT giant illegally withheld that info from buyers

Why is anyone buying a printer at all?

Hey, printer people out there! What do you you use your printer for? My printer is just sitting idle collecting dust. Can’t think of anything I would need to print. Everything is digital these days.

In less developed countries, you’d need printed copies for a lot of stuff, especially legal documents.

Speaking from experience.

Oh, I remember those. The government here has been working to go digital for the past 30 years, and now it’s beginning to pay off.

Good for you! My country is going toward that direction, but corruption kinda keeps the progress slow. Still some progress here and there.

I for one can’t read correctly anything longer than a lemmy post on a screen. I print more or less anything that I’m want to read with my brain fully present - I usually outline and comment on paper too, makes it easier to remember. Latest use case : printing out dnd character sheets to do my charac design for BG3

Ok, that seems like a sensible use case.

I’ve heard many people say that reading stuff on a screen is more distracting and they have trouble focusing. I don’t feel that way, so screens are just fine for me.
