I don’t get why HP continues selling in the consumer market if they are struggling so much to make a profit.It seems like they are trying to force a business model on the wider market that doesn’t work.
The subscription model makes more sense in the B2B world where companies just want fixed costs without doing too much shopping around (for things like printer cartridges anyway).
I’ve been learning it over the last few weeks, and I can say it definitely has a learning curve for folks used to the Microsoft style, it’s pretty solid. Integration with the affinity photo and designer are nice too - moving assets across them is incredibly easy.
It’s not free but it’s really affordable, and it’s not on a subscription so once you buy it you own it. Would recommend checking it out.
