This is awesome.
After almost 10 years with the HP 932c printer, we upgraded to this, and WOW!, were we missing out on a lot! This printer works beautifully, is easy to use, and very well designed. All of the features I didn't think I needed (ie. memory card slots, fax, double-sided print)... well, now I don't know what life was like without them.
The only cons so far... The wireless is tricky to set up (Norton Antivirus doesn't like it), and the print speed is not real impressive. But those are not life-or-death issues for me. I can always use USB or ethernet connections, and it's still faster than my old one.
Buy it. (Did I mention it's CHEAP for what you get?!) Rating:

EXCELLENT!
I give this product 5 out of 5 especially because of the connectivity options. The wireless works perfectly- even allowing you to enter a WPA key right from the front panel. The wireless scan/print and fax functions also work great. The duplexer works- everything works! I bought one for a customer, and I'm definitely going to buy one for me next! Rating:

Does the Job
This printer does everything I need it to do. I've used everything but the fax option. I have to agree it goes through the ink pretty fast but overall, a very good buy. I had no problems with the wireless connection to my laptop. In fact, I had more problems inserting the ink cartridges than hooking up the wireless connection. You can't go wrong with this printer.

I agree there are installation problems
For wireless, there are issues, I love the design and look of the print, I just wish I could print something off of it...but I can't because I'm too busy trying to get it to hook into my WIFI. I work for a reseller and I know my clients love this product to pieces, which is why I am giving it 4 stars... Rating:

Printer rocks, setup and documentation let it down
I finally broke down and bought an all in one printer last night. This thing seems to have it all, it prints on both sides of the paper, it scans, it copies (slightly different to scanning), it faxes, and it's wireless. So far so good. Unpacking it and powering it up is the easy part, actually even setting it up using the new installation software (downloaded from HP), was easy. While the installation is doing it's thing I took the time to play around with the copy and fax features (you don't need a computer for these)and they work great.
After about 30 minutes I was printing my first page and all was good. Then I decided to use the installed HP software to manipulate my scanned images, this is where the issues started. First the software told me the printer was available, then all of a sudden it tells me the printer is unavailable. I uninstalled/reinstalled but still could not get the software to work. Finally, I remembered a comment Chong Yip (previous review) made about firewalls and ports! After configuring my router to forward the appropriate port everything worked. I cannot remember reading anywhere about unblocking a port, nor do I remember the installation telling me to unblock a port. In fact, neither of them even tell you how to find the right port to unblock!
So here is the deal, if you know about basic wireless networking and know how to find the port the printer is using, so you can unblock it, then you can get this thing running pretty quickly. If you don't then I suggest you find someone to help you, or work with HP support to get it running. It's a real shame, because once this thing is running it is very good (although I have only had it a day).
Pros:
Supports Fax, Scan, Copy, Duplex Printing, bunches of memory cards
Document feeder for scanning/copying multiple pages
Wireless
Cons:
Installation software
Documentation
Need to know more than you should about wireless networking to get it working properly (SSID, WEP, Port Forwarding, Static IP, etc)
Tips (Wireless Setup) for Win XP (32): (Thanks to Chong Yip) -- Only attempt if you are comfortable with wireless networking.
1) Before you do anything manually add this printer to your network using the panel on the printer (You will need to know SSID, and WEP key)
2) Assign it a static ip (this will help you in the long run when you need to unblock the port), using the control panel on the printer
3) Go to your web browser and type in the ip address of your printer, if it shows up, you are in reasonable shape
4) Download the latest installation software from HP web site
5) Select the advanced setup and only install the printer driver
6) After install of driver check that you can print a page
7) Find your printer in (Start->Printers and Faxes) and then right click on it and select "Properties"
8) Click on the "Ports" tab (the HP printer should be selected, if not click on it)
9) Click on "Configure Port"
10) Make a note of the port number and then configure your router to unblock it (port forward it). This will then allow you to use the HP Digital Imaging software for scanning, faxing, etc.
Good luck!
