Nanian on HP
It wasn’t that long ago that HP had the absolute worst OSX drivers of any major peripheral developer. Their scanners barely worked, their printers sort of worked, the software they loaded was pretty shamefully buggy, flaky… they just sucked.
Yup, that was my experience. I have a 6MP and a 48G that are excellent and seem as though they will keep working forever, but all the recent HP products I’ve used have been terrible. He says things are better now.
