I've seen their planned obsolesce model on desktop printers too. I've been burnt by them before on a computer and its drivers not supporting Windows 8.1 or higher for example - my last HP machine ever no doubt. HP is notorious for discontinuing their printers (and computer products for that matter) and making their drivers be tied into a maximum OS version.
That software must also have drivers for your printer (and if an operating system is ever updated to a new release, the manufacturer of the printer may or may not continue to support said printer on that OS version). Something to keep in mind with large format printers (that may or may not cut) is that they often require RIP (Raster Image Processor) software to do their thing which is expensive too.
