FWIW: if you can get hold of older firmware updates that don't have the third party crippling function you can extra the necessary file to a memory stick and use that to revert your firmware to an older version.Lucky, as some of them don't care about the environment. HP are still crippling laser printers so they won't take 3rd party toner carts. One OTA update knocked out many printers recently. I think it will take a Class action to stop them doing it.
