Fuck Brother and every other printer manufacturer. Fuck their mothers, brothers, sisters, and pet goldfish. They're whores and aren't worth the ammo I'd use to wipe them out, then piss on their corpses. What has me beyond pissed is how sleazy these fuckers are, when it comes to extracting ongoing revenue from their hardware sales.
Yesterday, I was getting a few things in order and needed to print a page of ammo labels. The last few times I printed something, I'd gotten a low ink warning on two of the three colors, which I promptly ignored, because a) fucking print my shit and b) I almost never print in color and when I do, said color is only on a bit of text in an otherwise black and white document. Back to the labels, I received a warning that I was totally out of magenta. Again, fuck you, I want black and white. Except despite having an almost full black ink cartridge, it refused to print in black and white. I tried all sorts of settings changes and nothing worked. What I did discover was the color setting was on 'vivid color' or some shit like that, and I remembered that HP got nailed for this exact thing several years ago; draining the color cartridges even when printing in black and white. Needless to say, I changed the settings to B/W, but I still had to order cartridges. In a defiant "Fuck You" gesture, I got non-factory knock off units, because fuck Brother.
