Preposition FOR

There is a demand for/ a need for a new printer.

I would say "there is a demand/need for new printers" (this means that people in general want new printers)


Did you hear about the annulation (you mean annulment but we would just say cancellation) of the company event? Yes, I did, but I don‘t care for it.

"I don't care for it" means I don't like HOW it is or, simply, I don't like the characteristics.
I don't care for the soup... I don't like the taste or smell...
I don't care for him... I don't like how he acts

This example you have doesn't work because there are really no characteristics to a cancellation, it is just a fact.

did you hear how they canceled the event. Yeah I didn't care for it. (this means I don't like how they told everyone. He was yelling or the email they sent was mean.)

Everything else was perfect!
