HP slammed for blocking use of third party ink cartridges again - Technology News
Hewlett-Packard (HP) is once again blocking users from using third-party ink cartridges in HP printers. People have been growing increasingly frustrated with HP as it has been using firmware updates to block the use of non-HP-brand ink cartridges in its printers. The company cited security as the reason for the step.Â
People took to Twitter and Reddit to report about the issue. The HP community forum said that a recent firmware upgrade for printers has disabled the use of non-HP ink as part of the company's strict "dynamic security" policy, as per a report in The Verge.
