People don’t seem to realize this kind of thing will be really popular. If you have a small office or you don’t do your own tech support, these deals sound awesome. Small fee and thing is always working when you need it. They don’t think about how better laser is and how longer toner can last without being used, etc. They don’t care, what they see is 36$ a month not to deal with any printer related issues. Kind of a brilliant move on HPs side. Make printers evil, then offer solution to evil via subscription. And you can bet your ass this one will magically have significantly better drivers and lower maintenance than others because those would bite into all that sweet income.
