Really Nice Printer5

I bought this printer to replace my workhorse HP 6110 that finally gave it up. Once you get past the excessive packaging, you have a very nice printer. It’s shiny black (everyone is referring to it as the Darth Vader look) so it will show all the dust and finger prints and the residual adhesive from the packaging will attract dust for quite some times. OK, bitching done. The printer set up is really easy. You follow the cartoon easy set up guide and in a few minutes the printer is performing its self checks and shortly thereafter it’s running. I don’t use the fax so I don’t know how easy that set up really is but HP devotes almost the entire guide to setting up the fax option. The software setup is also easy and was problem free on my laptop. My desktop had a few compatibility issues with Norton AV but that was resolved. The software would not load on another laptop running Vista. The wireless print capability is great. The printer has no physical connection in my network so both of my machines are connected via the wireless router (desktop mnachine is not wireless capable). The printer also has a great feature called ePrint that gives the printer an EMail address (via HP) so that the body of any EMail sent to that address will be printed on the printer (recognizes MS Office docs, PDF, JPG, etc., as well as plain text). This means that you can print to the printer from any place you have an internet connection. Set up for this was simple although it did require that I reset the printer at one point before it would start printing; been working fine since then. Black print quality is pretty good. Color for text, etc. is also quite good. Have not tried printing photos. I have not had the printer long enough to see how long the ink lasts. But, you do get individual cartridges for each color and black. Scan capability looks pretty nice as well. You register machines via the set up on the printer. Once registered you can scan to the target machine. Warning though: you need to have the HP software running on the machine so the connection will work. That means one more task sucking up CPU. The scanner has both flat glass and a sheet feeder. The sheet feeder works quite well and is fast. Wish it had two sided sheet feed but that’s available in the next model up.All in all, I like this printer and the price was quite good. We’ll see how well I like it in 3-4 years.
