Hi Just want to say how much HP sucks, I have never had so much drama trying to print a file. How hard is it to make a printer that prints? Isnt that its ONE job. If i had enough money I would buy every single printer HP ever make and put them into a wood chipper then burn the remains. I have spent the last 3 hours signing in accounts setting up apps and reading through pages of online forums trying to figure out how to use my HP officeJet pro 8020 without internet connection. It seems you need to have a degree in computer science to follow the multiple steps required to use this printer. In the end I gave up and wrote what I needed onto a piece of paper. HP are obviously set on sending human evolution backwards, thankfully my pen still works. 

 

aw yeah finally did get  the print something, endless pages of GET/DevMgmt/MediahandlingDyn.xml row after row....

 

going to go outside now and smash this waste of plastic into a million tiny pieces probably the only joy I will ever get out of this box of rubbish
