Hewlett Packard Officejet Pro L7680 InkJet Printer

Pros: Long list of features
Cons: Large footprint, manual provided is basic - need to print out the detailed manual

We've all been there before... A printer breaks down just as we spent good money on a multi-pack of ink cartridges. Since printers are not worth fixing (versus purchasing a new one), off you go to buy a new printer only realize that you need to buy all ...

Pros: works well, easy installation, cheap!
Cons: made from cheap plastic parts

My printer/fax/scanner/copier broke down at work and so I made my boss buy me a new one.  I was sort of dreading getting the new one because I knew I'd have to set it up myself.  I will fully admit that I am a total wuss when it comes to having ...

Pros: Print Quality
Cons: Poor Scanning, Printer Disconnect, Unreliable Software, Does not work unless into 2.0USB

Pros: Easy Setup, Easy To Use, Fast Operation, Good value
Cons: Some parts feel flimsy, Large, Heavy, Somewhat Noisy

Despite some negative reviews on other websites my wife and I bought this unit because of good prior experience with HP Printers. We were looking for a single, reliable machine that could fax, print, copy and scan letter and legal documents efficiently. ...

Pros: Great AOI printer if discounted and you can get it to work on your network.
Cons: EPIC FAIL - the drivers are very bad.  ADF jams easily.

I'll update this review as I get more experience with the printer, but after one day of owning it here's what I know:Positive Comments1 - The "Digital Filing" feature is great!  You setup 10 different front panel hotkeys to ...

Pros: Fast printing Easy to setup and use Professional quality pictures
Cons: Limited to one size of photo (mine was 4x6)

I've owned a digital camera for about 2 years now, and I have to say the one thing I felt was missing when I first got it, was the ability to have printed pictures. While I have no problem looking at the pictures I take on the computer, print outs are ...

Pros: With extended warranty and computer knowledge is good for small home based business
Cons: HP way install and use, slow on network, no auto cropping, expensive to maintain

I own a HP Office jet Pro L7680 for a little over 1year and use it in a home office environment connected through LAN to 4 PCs. Total prints 1326 pages. Install: You have to use the full featured install package. I installed only printer drivers on one ...

Pros: Quality of product and prints, price of printer and prints, Quality of back up service.
Cons: Absolutely none. Would still be a bargain at twice the price.

I purchased one of these printer after reading the excellent reviews on various web sites on the net. I normally buy brand named products to ensure that they will do what they claim but through caution to the wind and bit the bullet. At first glance, ...

Pros: when it does work, it is fast
Cons: Paper jams constantly.

I am on my third printer of this model in six months. The paper jams are constant with ordinary letterhead. The first printer would get a paperjam and them tell me I had to replace the print cartridge before it would continue, even if the print ...

Pros: Wireless, Laser, Fast, Great Customer Service
Cons: Complicated Set-up

I have 2 desktops and 2 Laptops at home. One Laptop runs Vista while all the other computers run XP-SP2. All 4 computers have wireless access to the Net via an ATT high speed router. In the past, printing was a drag. The two color deskjets where not ...

Pros: amazing prints and ease of use
Cons: none

the HiTi 630ps from right out of the box gave be amazing prints,from the stand alone mode or from my pc.

Have had several ink jets and have had problems sooner or later with the print heads from clogging to banning from lack of use. With the hiti 630ps you have a ribbon so you don't have to be concerned with clogged print heads.

The price of a print is about 40 cents a piece. I have printed direct from a sm,and cf cards did no color correcting and got great pictures,but you can correct color,brightness,and contrast either stand alone or from pc.

I give this printer 5 stars

Pros: Print quality acceptable
Cons: Poor paper handling.

Not a good printer at any price. I purchased this printer and thought I got a deal ($149). One of the worst paper handling printers I have ever used. Jams often. The paper feed will often take 5 pieces of paper at a time.

Pros: Great paperweight.
Cons: Everything about the machine.

Oh...My...God!

I'm a a system administrator, and I've installed a lot of desktop peripherals in my time, but, for poor performance, this one has them all beat!

1. The software is so clunky that it repeatedly crashed my system.


2. The scanner simply didn't work...In fact, if you run out of ink in just one cartridge, the machine won't let you scan! Please tell me why you need ink in order to scan a document to file?

3. Per usual with HP, the software that ships with the machine consists of several arcane applications, all of which are enormous resource-hogs.

4. Okay, so I decided to scan to device (a plain thumb-drive). I put the document on the scanner, insert my thumb drive and press "scan"...viola!..."Disconnect device. Refer to printer documentation to troubleshoot".

I eventually gave up and put this piece of junk in storage.

Pros: Everything great!
Cons: None that I can see

Just got this a few days ago. Like anything, I do a search on-line as well as speak with others. I knew I wanted to get away from the "inkjet" and hoped that there was something else.

After knowing of the "die-sub" process, I did a search on-line and discovered "Hi-Touch". Did several searches and called a few photo stores and all seemed to have high acolades for Hi-Touch in general.

So, without even getting a test picture, I decided to just do it! I'm not a professional Photographer but know how to take a nice picture with a DSLR and a simple P&S camera.

Setup was simple, simple. I was printing after 15 minutes. This morning, I was up taking pictures of the fog rolling out! Again, it was so thrilling to run and pop in my "compact flash" and be able to print the one photo!

Serendip

Pros: Very Fast printer. Feels and looks and runs solid. No significant problems
Cons: Ink not waterproof. Should have larger menu screen. Double sided prints are slow to print

The L7680 is the fastest inkjet I have ever used. It can print documents or web pages extremely fast. Note: Photos printed in normal fast mode have lines, BUT, this printer can print photos on photo paper perfectly if you use the included hp photosmart software and choose "borderless" printing. In this mode the printer will slow down and very carefully print a photo without any lines in it or any observable defects. This is only a 4 color printer, but I was none-the-less very impressed with the quality of the photos it printed.

Home computer is 933 mhz, using windows xp. We installed all the hp software, and it did NOT slow the computer down, so I don't know why other people are having troubles.
Online reviews suggest ink costs as low as laserprinter, but I haven't calculated to verify. Copies looked crisp and highly defined, but other than that I haven't used the scanner. The ability to use this printer as a copy machine without turning the computer on is very handy and desirable. Automatic document feeder works well- no problems.
