We never agreed to only buy HP ink, say printer owners

It’s crazy that companies think they can get away with stuff like this in a world of instant communications. These CEO’s should know better but they don’t. This could cost them big bucks just ask the makers of Bud Light.

Cost of Ink

I print maybe 150 pages a month. Mostly for my grandkids school stuff. I don’t recall anything on the HP Box stating I needed to use their ink. My HP8020 ink at Costco is a $155.00 for three color and two B&W XL cartridges. I paid about $200. for the printer three years ago. HP would do good for their customers if they lowered the cost of supplies because they also sell pc’s one of which I bought last summer.
