thronedfire2 03/03/24 9:15:36 PM #11:	did anyone actually read the article? all this means is they'll be leasing printers instead of selling them. so if you have an HP printer and it breaks you don't have to pay to get it fixed, they just fix it or replace it. this is not uncommon for specialized equipment at all.
