I just bought this printer/fax/scanner/copier two nights ago from my local Office Depot. It was on sale for only $339! (Lowest price I found ANYWHERE (including internet) so far.) Anyway, I brought it home and plugged in all the cables. Before I had even installed the drivers, I could scan, and change settings on my computer! The embedded web-server is awesome!
The drivers comes in two installations for Windows PC's, Full: 1130mb, or Minimal: 350mb. The full install has all the drivers, and the full version of HP Image Zone for editing and touching up pictures. The minimal install has all the drivers, and an express version of the HP Image Zone software, which is still enough for most people. I also installed the drivers and software on my iMac, and that only seemed to take up about 300mb total. After I installed the drivers on both machines, I printed out some pages of various types, and I couldn't believe how fast this thing is! Once the print job was sent to the printer, it flew through whatever I printed.
My next test was the fax. I have Vonage phone service, so I don't have to worry about getting a service or separate line for a fax. I put a splitter on my Linksys 2-port phone router, and hooked up all the cables. The on-screen fax test results looked all good, so I sent a fax over to work, and it came through flawlessly. I also tested it in recieving too, and that worked great as well.
The only complaints I have about this all-in-one is that it doesn't have a sheet-feeder, and you cannot print directly on cd's with this printer, as far as I know. Other than that, this all-in-one is well worth the money. For $386 after taxes, and INCLUDING a 2-year extended warranty, this was a steal!
5 stars out of 5. It does what it says it will, and a hell of a lot more!

Header: Excellent Ao1 Unit

I have always been reluctant to buy an All-in One unit mainly because of the fear of one part wearing out or going bad and causing the whole machine to be thrown away. These days it seems that is about all that is available. I wanted a good photo printer and reviews I read praised this unit. A great printer it is and it also scans great. The included software is also good, and it is relatively simple to use.
I have only one complaint, the fax function will not work from the computer(it is supposed to and has worked intermittently), you can use it as a stand alone fax machine and it performs well. I have tried connecting it to a different computer without any firewalls or anti-virus software and the same issue. I contacted HP support and they kept blaming the phone cord connection which obviously has nothing to do with the connection between the PC and AO1.
I think my issue is probably a defect in my unit and I probably won't use the fax much anyway. I just have to print out my faxes and scan them back into the machine. I didn't return it in the allowed time (was not bought on Amazon) so I am pretty much stuck with it. I probably could send it to be repaired but I have been down that road before and I don't think it would be worth the trouble.
This is a good machine though, I don't want to bad mouth it. It works very well, the ink cartridges seem like they are really going to last. I have printed many photos and color documents and they are all still almost full.
If you buy one MAKE SURE everything works before the store return policy time has expired. To send it out (probably with repeated attempts to repair) simply would not be wort it at least to me. In the past I have had excellent service from HP products, please don't let this review deter you from purchasing one, I just got a bad one.
