1 out of 5 stars Wireless problems all over   January 3, 2009
That printer may have a nice quality of printing. But I have spent hours and days now with setting up the wireless mode. The more I read through the web, the more people I see having the same problem, that the setup can't communicate with the printer.
That thing goes back to HP and I'm deeply dissapointed in them - looking for alternatives!



5 out of 5 stars Great Printer   January 1, 2009
I find this printer to be great. It makes nice quality prints compared to other printers in its price range, and I have not had a problem with it going to sleep and not waking up. It works wonderfully wirelessly with my 2 vista laptops. I am pretty sure from reading about this printer from other websites that the issue many people are having with this printer is mainly a MAC issue, but I could be wrong. All I can confirm is I have two PC's and it works great with them. My only gripe is it prints kinda slow, but that is because it prints higher quality than other printers. The HP Vivera inks make photos look really colorful as well.


1 out of 5 stars OK if you don't want to print wirelessly   December 25, 2008
The print quality is Ok, the copy quality is OK, though a bit slow. I haven't tried the scanning yet.

The most infuriating thing about this product is that if the printer is turned on for more than an hour or so you cannot print wirelessly without powering the printer off and back on again.

Overall, this makes a somewhat sub-par free printer (with my mac purchase). If you want to print to it without having to carry your laptop in or having a machine connected via USB, look for a different product.



1 out of 5 stars Printer sucks   December 22, 2008
Doesn't come back on after it goes to sleep. You have to unplug it and replug it back in to make it work!


5 out of 5 stars Nice quality, great value   November 16, 2008

After having read numerous complaints about this device going to sleep and never waking up, I made sure to immediately install it using the fairly public workaround of giving it a dedicated IP address. It has never used DHCP and it has never failed. Would it fail to wake up if I used DHCP? Probably so, but since I'm not using it that way, it's not a problem.

I'm ecstatic that the Windows driver can be downloaded and installed alone - without all of the extra overhead fluff that many consumer printers scatter around your system. When I'm not printing, there aren't 10,000 printer related processes running in the background like there were with my old Lexmark.

So far I've only used the included inks and the photo quality, at least to an untrained eye, is much better than I would have expected from a device at this price. I don't know if the 6 ink option produces better photos than the default 4 color output right out of the box, but again, to my untrained eyes, the photo output looks great from the CMYK cartridges which were included. I'm not likely to ever buy the photo cartridge.

My setup: HP c4580 connected wirelessly to a ZoneAlarm z100g. I've printed with Windows XP SP3 (32), and Vista SP1 (x64) which are also connected to the zonealarm z100g's wifi network.
