5.0 out of 5 stars Easy setup & good value for the money, July 19, 2011

I got this printer a couple weeks ago from HP's online store, and I'm quite pleased overall.

FYI, I'm using this with two Win7 64bit PCs and an Actiontec router which is supplied by Verizon FiOS.

PROS
- I won't mention the obvious features, as they're easy enough to spot reading the main description of the printer and looking at the pictures.
- It's very well packed! I doubt the standard "fling it up there on the porch" approach that some delivery guys take would hurt this thing.
- Comes with a (short) USB cable where most printers these days do not. Since I hoped to use it wirelessly, it was nice to have a cable included for initial setup rather than buying one separate. See the cons below for more info on the USB cable.
- Setup in Win7 64bit was a breeze! I just followed the directions. That got the wireless part setup. From there, my other Win7 64bit PC easily found it on the network. Now they can both print to it.
- It...Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Printer, July 19, 2011

I decided to go with a laserjet after my HP inkjet wouldn't print black/white documents because a color cartridge was empty.

Setup with the printer was very easy and no CD is required. It comes with a 3' USB cable and you just connect it to the PC and a dialog box asks which type of install you would like to perform (wired network, direct USB connection, or wireless). I did the wireless connection- so I had to enter in the password for the printer to get on which is all configured through the PC. Overall, the total install and setup took about 10 minutes.

I did change the amount of time for the printer to enter the sleep mode. The default was 15 minutes and I changed it to 5 since I don't print as often. You change this by right clicking on the printer and going to the properties menu on your PC.

For printing, the text is very clear. Images are pretty good as well. I printed directions and maps and from google and everything looked clear. I love...Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Good printer, lots of features, issues with OS X Lion, August 25, 2011

This is a good printer with a lot of nice features. The setup was relatively easy on a Mac, but there were some problems using Lion (see below). I like the fax, scan, copy, and print features. The printer doesn't do color, but the quality is what you'd expect from a Laserjet. The network setup was quick and easy and there is both an ethernet connection and WiFi. The printer is also AirPrint enabled, which is nice if you want to print from your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch.

This printer replaced my Photosmart printer because I never print photos and I print so infrequently that my ink dries up. I elected to go with a laser because the toner won't dry from disuse.

Setting up was easy. You still have to use the CD when installing on a Mac (the Smart Install feature is for Windows users only), but it wasn't a problem. You can either set it up via a USB cable or over the network. The problems I had were installing the software and configuring the fax settings...Read more
