    Default I(*^#! *#_)!(_+(# printer ink bullshit

    tried to print something. stupid fucking printer said I was out of magenta. who gives a fuck? its black and white. dont use the stupid magenta.

    i had a refill of each stupid fucking color, so I put a new magenta in.

    stupid fucking printer said I was out of yellow. I said FUCK YOU STUPID PRINTER and turned it to black and white. Then it said I was out of whatever other color isnt black. so by now, I have replaced everything but the black. Surely it will print now, right? NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO It wont. It says I'm still out of the brand fuicking new colors I just installed. For whatever reason, its not reading the new ones as being filled. THey are NOT refilled. They are brand new.

    I google "my fucking printer ink issue" and all it talks about is fucking cheapskates refilling cartridges and why they wont work. I spent ungoldy amounts of money on genuine HP ink and the mother fucker still wants to be a fucking ass.

    Any ideas other than beating the fucking thing with a baseball bat and buying a new one? I have no fucking problem with that because I'm sure this printer will be very sad to leave me.

    ready set go
    Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.

    Did you set it to black and white on the printer or through your device properties?

    Did you take the tape off the new cartridges?

    I feel for your afternoon appointments!

    I'd be willing to bet the tape is still on. You know how toof can be with his electronics.

    He would never admit to it.

    i didnt expect much from you folks.

    there is no tape

    it makes all kinds of cool squishing noises then tells me to replace the fucking magenta.

    I'm sorry but magenta's not a real color anyway.

    i changed to black and white on the computer page after i hit PRINT

    dickheads. the lot of ya

    Are you saying it doesn't have tape b/c you were smart enough to remove it or it doesn't have tape b/c you didn't see it, and don't want to go pulling it all back apart?

    You should be able to prescribe yourself something for those heavy menstrual cycles. Being a doctor and all.

    Did you re-align the thing after you changed the print cartridges?

    Pro Tip: Trade, Sell, or bash your HP printer with a hammer and go buy an Epson WorkForce. They make several models that are good for home and office use. I just bought the WorkForce WF-3620 and it's the best damn printer I've ever had. Dry Ink technology, wireless, fast, and Iphone/Ipad air drop printer friendly. On sale at Staples for $100
