Reporting telemetry is crucial in enterprise environments where you need to report the print counts monthly. Are you using an enterprise printer at home by chance?
only thing the telemetry is used in this printer is nice graphs on the app, but the same can be done locally from the embedded web server at the printer ip address
enterprise device management and reporting unknown quantities of data back to hp are two different things.
this bit about "reporting unknown quantities of data back to hp" let me remember a "cool" feature of the printer. HP takes back the cartridges for free, even sends back the recycling company at their expense, but then the fine print says:
nice data exfiltration program!
