      If 3rd party ink can give you a computer virus then the printer isn’t built correctly. There’s no reason that should happen.

        You’re saying ink can only give you a virus if HP created vulnerabilities in their printers to enable DRM.

        So they’re warning you about a risk they chose to create in order to rip off their customers.
