"Never own a printer again."

HP launched a subscription service today that rents people a printer, allots them a specific amount of printed pages, and sends them ink for a monthly fee. HP is framing its service as a way to simplify printing for families and small businesses, but the deal also comes with monitoring and a years-long commitment.

    Maybe they’ll be kind enough to offer an ad-free subscription that doesn’t waste ink and paper for just $10 more per month.*

    *Ink credits expire at the end of each month and cannot be rolled over. Use of ink exceeding the monthly plan will be billed at premium rates. Using the printer means you agree to the current week’s privacy policy, a copy of which will be printed on request at the customer’s cost. Privacy policy printing credits are not included in the monthly plan. All materials printed via the printer, and all derived works, remain the intellectual property of HP Inc. Users of the printer, and their descendants, are the property of HP Inc. Bypassing print limit restrictions will be punishable as terrorism. Other terms and conditions may apply. This deal is subject to change; pray we do not change it further.
