How do I turn off auto calibration of HP Deskjet 2542?

I swear this is the biggest scam.  Calibrating a printer should be an OPTION, not something that is done automatically.  But then HP might sell less ink, eh?
This is my second HP printer.  The first was pretty much crap.  I was hoping that the second would be beter, but no.  This is the last HP printer I'll even buy.
So is there a way to turn off the auto-calibrating "feature" on an HP Deskjet 2542?

Hi @CJHames,
Welcome to the HP Forums
Although the auto-calibration feature cannot be disabled, I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post serial numbers and case details.
If you are not sure how to check your forum messages this post, has instructions.

  • How do I turn off auto split in iPhoto ?

    How do I turn off auto split in iPhoto? I have about 8,000 old photos I would like to import but it splits them in to loads of events. Would just like to leave them in year folders.

    First try, if importing a sample folder with two images with different days, more than a week apart, will import them as only one event on your mac and  the autosplit is behaving the same for you as for me.
    May be I will have to do it folder by folder which will take for ever.
    Would it be possible for you to join some of the folders before importing?
    Or join your events in iPhoto after importing. Creating yearly events is fairly simple (tested in iPhoto 9.5.1)
    Create a smart album for each year (File > New ) with the smart rule "Date is in the range ...."
    Then select all photos in this smart album and use the command from the "events" menu "create event". This will collect all photos in a new yearly event.

    A Google search turned up Stopping Autocomplete with "Go To Folder" Function and this thread - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2601699?threadID=2601699  Knowledge Base has a few articles on "auto complete" pertaining to certain applications.  Didn't see any articles though about it for the Finder. 
    Yes you are correct.  I didn't know it was a "feature."  Thank you for pointing that out.

    How do I turn off auto-renewing subscriptions on my iPod Touch 4th Generation. I have followed all the suggestions, but my device does not follow those prescribed steps. Can somone please help me. I'm not very computer savy.

    If you go to yur account setting what do you see? The app subscription says:
    • Auto-renew may be turned off by going to your Account Settings after purchase and must be turned off at least 24-hours before the end of the current period.
    If that does not exist, and since eHarmony was not helpful, contact iTunes
    Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
    Tell them you contacted eHarmony
