AWFUL:
There aren't enough bad things in the world that can be said about this printer. It has cost me so much time, frustration and anguish. It's probably the worst printer in the history of printers and I cannot express how much I hate this printer. I'd rather invest $100 in Morgan Stanley right now than buy this printer if I was faced with that decision today. DO NOT BUY

operating this printer a full time job:
When I first tried to scan something on this "all-in-one", it didn't work. I called HP and after a long time on the phone they told me that I needed a special driver to get the scanner to work (even though the printer was working fine). That was when I was trying to scan a photo. Now I'm trying to scan an 8 x 10 sheet of paper for the first time. On whatever default setting is at work here, the scanner only scans a small section of the paper. I've been looking for a way to change this setting for half an hour. I'm sure there's some setting or button that will cause this scanner to scan and 8 x 10 piece of paper, and if using my printer was my full time job I'd be happy to look for it some more. But getting this all in one to do it's primary tasks just doesn't seem worth the time it takes.

Horrible:
While I have used several multi-use copiers in the past, I desired to upgrade to a wireless version that everyone in my family could use easily. Unfortunately, I purchased this one. While I had very little difficulty getting the wireless working with our Window's Vista computers, they programs that come with the printer are horrible. First, They are not user friendly and are difficult to follow or get help within the program (or online). Second, it runs 2 seperate programs in order to scan and save your images to your PC. Even now, we are only able to save the images we scan about 25% of the time. My wife has asked me to reinstall our old Lexmark printer so we can sell/trash this one. I would recomend that HP review the software for this item see if someone can create a more user friendly version. In the meanwhile, I would recomend that you purchase a printer from another manufacturer. I would recomend a Lexmark, Brother, or Epson instead.

Excellent for a Small Home Office:
I believe all the "USB disconnect" errors that others have been experiencing have all been with driver issues. The New drivers do not give that problem I am very pleased with this printer. It makes perfect copies, it prints lighting fast. It looks sooo much nicer in person, and by the looks alone is worth the dollars. Looks like part of the MAC family, and you know how good the Mac designs are. High Quality materials everywhere, not that light type plastic, but a nice solid/shiny type. Has not given me one error/problem!! Well worth the money spent!

Amazing performance> not in a good way:
This printer has probably contributed to a measurable decrease in my life expectancy due to the stress of inevitable paper jams, erroneous messages about being out of paper when the carriage is full, frequent problems pulling the paper through, paper jams, paper jams, more paper jams. Words can't even begin to capture how much I hate this printer, the only reason I would give it one star is that most printers are mysteries and have their own little idiosyncrasies that need to be worked around, but for this particular model I would reserve a special place in the fiery depths. On a positive note, it does seem to work well with Mac OS10... in theory. In other words, the interface is manageable... but oh my gosh, what a horribly dreadful little machine.
