I-HP iqhubeka nempi yayo engadingekile ngokumelene namakhasimende ayo
Esikhathini esingeside esidlule sabelane lapha kubhulogi ngendaba mayelana nezenzo ezithathwe yi-HP maqondana nodaba lwamaphrinta ayo nokuthi i-HP manje isithathe “umqondo” omuhle wokukhubaza amaphrinta amakhasimende asebenzisa ama-cartridges e-inki emncintiswaneni.
Umkhiqizi ungene ngokungemthetho kumakhompyutha amakhasimende ngokusebenzisa izibuyekezo ezikude ezivimbela amaphrinta ukuthi asebenze uma engenawo amakhatriji e-inki avunyelwe. Le nkampani iqinisekisa lokhu ngokukhomba isidingo sokuqinisekisa ukuphepha kwamakhasimende.
Kubonakala sengathi i-HP iphelelwa yimibono yokuthi ingabhekana kanjani nalesi simo , okusobala ukuthi sesiphumile esandleni futhi, kwabaningi, okuyimpi engenangqondo ehlulwayo ngokusobala, ngoba esikhundleni sokugcina amakhasimende ayo, iyabaxosha.
“Nganginyathelisa izincwadi eziningi zomsebenzi ophuthumayo futhi ngangidinga ukushintsha ama-cartridge. Ngingazi, abakwa-HP bagqekeze endlini yami ngobusuku obubodwa futhi bacisha iphrinta yami, bafuna isihlengo uma ngingasebenzisi uyinki wabo. Ngenqaba futhi ngenqaba ukukwenza,” kubika umnikazi womshini wokunyathelisa.
Lesi sinyathelo esisha senkampani, njengoba sihlala sifanelekile, sibonisa ukuthi amakhatriji e-inki avela eceleni adala izingozi zokuphepha, inkinga elandela ezinye eziningana ezinezizathu ezifanayo.
Lezi yizikhalazo ezihlobene, ikakhulukazi, nesevisi yokuvuselela i-cartridge ehlinzekwa ngumkhiqizi wephrinta, njengoba kuyiqiniso, ama-cartridges ayinki okuqala ayabiza. Ukuze iphendule kulesi simo, inkampani, kusukela ngo-2016, isungule Ukubhaliswa kwe-HP Inc kohlu lwamaphrinta axhunywe kunethiwekhi ye-inthanethi.
Isithembiso senkampani ngale sevisi ukusiza abathengi bathole ukonga okubalulekile. Kuze kube manje, ikhuthaze ukunikezwa kwe-“Ink Yamahhala Yempilo”, okuvumela abasebenzisi ukuthi baphrinte amakhasi ayi-15 ngenyanga mahhala. Ngemva kwale mali, kufanele uqhubekele kurejista yemali ngokwesilinganiso sesilinganiso esichazwe inkampani.
I-HP ithumela ama-cartridge kayinki kubanikazi bamanye amaphrinta ayo axhunyiwe ukuze ahlangabezane nezidingo zabo zokuphrinta ezilindelwe. Ukusetshenziswa kwalokhu kuncike ekuxhumekeni kokubhaliselwe. Uma yeqiwe, inkampani ikhokhisa imali eyengeziwe ekhasini elisha ngalinye eliphrintiwe. Esimeni sokwenqaba ukukhokha okubhaliselwe noma izindleko ezengeziwe ngomsebenzisi, iphrinta iyayeka ukusebenza, noma ngabe i-cartridge isenoyinki. Ngakho-ke, ukuphelelwa yisikhathi kwekhadi lommangali kuzobe sekucatshangelwe yinkampani njengokwenqaba ukukhokha imali yokubhalisa.
Lezi zimo ziholele abasebenzisi abaningi ukuthi bagcine bekhethe ukusebenzisa olunye uhlobo lwephrinta noma bathenge u-inki oqhubekayo noma amaphrinta e-toner (yize lena yakamuva ifana nokusebenzisa amakhatriji, akhona futhi amamodeli angashajwa kabusha).
Iphuzu elibalulekile lapha ukuthi i-HP isithathe le mpi yaze yaba yinto engenakubuya (okungenani ngokombono wabaningi), njengoba ngokungena ngamakhompyutha amakhasimende, bethatha isinyathelo esikhulu. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi bathini ngezinqubomgomo zabo, kusobala ukuthi abaningi bazosebenzisa lesi simo ukuze basikhulise futhi baqhubeke namacala angaba khona.
Inkinga yezomthetho ingase ibe semthethweni noma ingase ingabi semthethweni, kodwa umlando wezinqumo ze-HP uye wabenza bangaxolisi nje kuphela kodwa futhi bakhokhe isinxephezelo kubasebenzisi abathintekile. Isibonelo sakamuva sasingo-2016 lapho i-Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) ithumela incwadi ku-CEO we-HP imcela ukuba axolise kumakhasimende enkampani futhi abuyisele ikhono lokusebenzisa ama-cartridge ezinkampani zangaphandle, lapho i-HP yavuma ukukhokha khona isinxephezelo esingu-$1.5 million.
Ekugcineni, ngokwami, ngiphinda ukuphawula kwami ku-HP lapho kufanele ikhethe khona isikhundla "eco friendly", njengoba namuhla ayiseyona inketho, kuyisidingo nokuzibophezela ngekusasa ukunciphisa kusukela manje kuqhubeke konke lokho. udoti we-elekthronikhi ongase ube wusizo esikhathini eside hhayi ukusetshenziswa okukodwa.
