Problem with printer installation

[alreadyfedupwit]

Thought I'd set up my new HP Deskjet 2700e printer.

Unfortunately I thought I might be able to set it up within a matter of minutes - it seems I need to set aside an eternity.

The "HP Smart" set up just hands there whilst "Loading HP account".

Fantastic 😞

What a waste of time.

Thought I'd try to exit the setup and then it shows me a message saying that you can't use the printer without completing the setup.

So you sell a product to people with installation instructions which are such that they can never get to use the product purchased from you.
