This is another all-in-one printer by Hewlett Packard which includes printing, scanning, and copying. This has a 100% working status (except for two minor problem) and has excellent quality.
The resolutions are quite high, and as long as the CUPS service is used, the quality can be changed with ease and configuring the printer is a breeze. The best source for information is LinuxPrinting.org where you will find out where to get the drivers for this printer.
There are two drivers, one for printing and the other for scanning. Install the hpijs driver first (for printing) and then the hpoj (for scanning) second.
Be sure to read the READMEs included with both those packages.
The two minor problems: printing documents with just text (like in OpenOffice) can be a bit slow at times, compared to when used in windows. Also, after scanning, printing often doesn't work until you turn off the printer and then turn it on again.
