I recently had the printer issue. Bought a brand-new HP from Amazon. Went through all the quick card steps to get it going, it was dead. This printer simply had a bad firmware on it which kept restarting the initial Hello World status. Since it was in that status, I couldn't connect it to the web to update that firmware. So I had a brick. Could I find any U.S. based live support? Nope. Returned it to Amazon's return junk pile and got my money back. Ticked me off so much I haven't bought another printer. Living without.

These companies made this mess, we're stuck with it. Profits are more important than quality and service. That's why everything is disposable, built in obsolescence.
