Summary: Worst HP experience ever
Comment: After 4 hours of trying to install the print driver, PLUS two calls to tech support (one of which lasted over an hour and one where I was on hold for 30 minutes and then disconnected)and an abortive tech support chat session, I am sending this printer back.
I am running Vista and for some reason the installation fails 3/4 of the way through. I literally tried a dozen times--from the CD, downloading two different versions from the site. When tech support told me to uninstall, restart and try again for the 5th time, I popped my gasket.

Summary: About to buy an Hp l7680
Comment: Thank you all for you reviews. I have been an HP fan for a long time, however the experiences that I just read about it making me re-consider.
The problems with limited English speaking support is a real deal breaker for me. I hope an HP rep reads these comments.

Summary: Leaks Ink
Comment: I had a problem with the printer leaking ink. I have never used the printer, having bought the unit for the scanner and fax. After a couple of days the printer reported that the black cartridge was empty and had to be replaced. A week later it was reporting that the yellow cartridge was in the same state.

Summary: Beware! One big flaw that's easily overlooked
Comment: I've been using this printer on my mixed Mac and Windows network for about 6 months. I have to say that setup was easy, the print quality is very good, and the unit is speedy. However, it has one big flaw that is easily overlooked.
This model was beyond my budget, but I bought it because it could do some things I really need. After setting it up, I discovered that, although it will do legal size scans & copies, and double-sided copies, it won't do both together. That is, it won't copy a double-sided original if it's legal size. This is very frustrating. The pre-sales literature didn't mention this limitation, but HP's web site states: "NOTE: Two-sided copies cannot be made from legal-sized originals." The fact is, even one-sided copies cannot be made from double-sided legal-size originals. The feeder seems to have no way to get the other side of the original to the scanning head if the document is legal size. That's a serious design oversight.
The software on the Mac side has some big flaws, which is unfortunate because they could have just provided hooks into some standard Mac programs and done away with their own software altogether. That would have been much better, and easier for HP too.
In the end, I still give it 3 stars because the speed and quality are good, and it has a lot of handy functions. But if you do a lot of scanning and/or work with double-sided legal-size originals, save your money and buy something else.

Summary: Great features, but died within a week
Comment: The good:
- The features were ideal for my small office environment. I wanted medium-duty scanning/printing/copying, maybe send the occasional fax. I liked the duplexing capability for scanning/printing/copying using the automatic document feeder (ADF).
- Setup/installation/operation was pretty easy. I didn't get into too many advanced functions while I had it.
The bad: On Day 6, the ADF jammed on a single sheet original that was ever so slightly bent -- I went to great lengths to flatten the original. The machine never recovered from that jam: It continually jammed after I cleared it. I spent an hour on the phone with HP support; and after exhausting all troubleshooting steps, they declared the machine dead and suggested I return it.
I do give HP credit for the rep being knowledgeable about the product, and for letting me cut my losses rather than spend days trying to resolve it. But the ADF really needs to be more durable, so I just couldn't justify replacing it with another HP model. I'm going to give the Canon MP7600 a try.
