A printer company does NOT need to require internet for printing. It's
clearly amassing data/metrics about you and your computing habits (and
can be remotely 'disabled' at any time.)</font><font size=3> <br>

Consumers need to stand up to companies and say "NO MORE" Only
support products that we can buy and OWN without their permissions. Plus,
it is a MASSIVE security hole. In this world of cyber attacks, you'll
never find a device like that in my house.</font><font size=3> <br>

Sorry for the off topic but I know there are many computer experts out
there. </font><font size=3><br>
</font><font size=3 face="Calibri"><br>
I bought this printer so I would have a "simple" B&W laser
jet for shipping labels. </font><font size=3><br>
</font><font size=3 face="Calibri"><br>
When I bought it I missed that is has to stay connected to the web even
after set up and subsequent printing through the USB cable. </font><font size=3><br>
</font><font size=3 face="Calibri"><br>
I am hoping I can install the drivers for this thing without the need for
constant web access by the machine. </font><font size=3><br>
</font><font size=3 face="Calibri"><br>
Any one have any thoughts on how I can do this? (near as I can tell,
the HP web site won't allow just downloading the drivers. It want access
to my network on the very first step.)</font><font size=3> <br>
