    The best printer to have in your house is not having a printer in your house.

    If she has to have one, try and talk her into getting a Brother.

    If she insists on getting an HP, try to avoid the subscription ones. If she’s only printing, use the HP Universal Print driver and just use the base driver. (Device manager > find the printer > update driver > browse for the driver > Have disk > Find the INF > yada yada)

    If she likes shitty bloated software, I guess let her install the normal drivers but it’s going to suuuuuuck. Wifi printing from them also sucks, unless you enjoy constant tech support. Then being on the phone trying to resolve a wifi issue.

    Anyway, fuck a printer.
