Description: A multifunction device that prints, scans, and copies. Uses hpijs driver for printing, hpoj driver for scanning/copying. Tested on Mandrake Linux 9.2. Prints, scans, and copies perfectly but Mandrake does not use ScannerDrake for configuration probably because it treats it as a printer.

Make sure you have hpijs and hpoj available, either from your distro's CD-ROM or off the Internet and install it first.

HP doesn't provide any scanning software for Linux but KDE's utilities will do.

Edit: Also works in Fedora Core 2. To enable scanning features, run "/etc/init.d/hpoj setup", then run xsane.

Detected nicely with YaST. Scans well with built in KDE apps. I never had to install a package. Some problems with printing though, sometimes the process will just hang for pictures and such. Simple text files print fine though. I think the problem may have something to do with USB rather than the printer itself

It works fine, gets detected as both the scanner and printer using the PTAL all-in-one driver.

Sometime the PTAL got messed up and I had to do the "print only" option in CUPS and have to load and unload rcptal by hand to scan. It's not that big of a pain.

EDIT: SuSE 9.3 includes the hpaio drivers. Use these rather than PTAL and it is a very simple setup. You can get the hpaio drivers from HP on their website.
