HP Deskjet 6980

Pros: Excellent quality work.

Cons: May be pricey for some; ink pricey.

The Bottom Line: This is a great photo printer for those seeking well above-average results.

Review: Recently, I was faced with an interesting dilemma. I had written a biography of a family member, and I wanted to publish it in a “book” form with a limited number of copies to distribute among several family members. I had dutifully typed it on ...

Pros: Wireless feature, Picture Print Quality, Ease of Set-Up

Cons: Speed of Black and White Printing, Cost of Cartridges

The Bottom Line: Great for those already running a home wireless network. Very easy to set-up.

Review: This was one of the best investments I've made in a while. I was a little nervous about setting up the wireless feature on this printer, but it worked flawlessly with the USB connection so I gave it a try. It was a breeze to set up and the print ...

Pros: wireless network operation, print quality, speed in normal mode, easy of use

Cons: none!

The Bottom Line: if you need to be wirelss you can't beat this machine! Even if you don't need wireless it great!

Review: I purchased this printer in April of '06 for $149.00 at Staples and have been totally satisfied until last week when the unit developed a short in the black cartridge connection. After spending about 1 hour with HP tech support chat we found that the ...

Pros: easy to use, wireless, fast

Cons: deskjet

Review: I really like this printer. I considered laser, but this one prints so well that I don't think it is necessary to waste money. The money I saved I spent on a good paper and it does great job printing documents and photos. HP support is fantastic. HP ...

Pros: Performs as expected and couldn't be happier.

Cons: A little noisy but acceptable.

Review: A replacement for another deskjet. This time wireless was a requirement. A little unsure of the install, but it went through without a problem. Had to Google to resolve a few questionable choices, but in the end with patience, everything is smooth and ...

Pros: Everything!

Cons: The ink is expensive

Review: I was burning up a printer a year using the low end inkjet printers. I paid a little more and I bought the HP6980. It has worked for almost two years now and is still going strong! I had no problems with setup using the USB connection, no paper jams ...

Pros: - Okay looking pictures - Nice and fast - Versatile software

Cons: - Crumples a lot of paper - Software a pain to install

The Bottom Line: It crumples and jams the paper to the point of being worthless.

Review: I bought this to replace my ancient bubble-jet, and didn't need much in terms of image quality. This attractive HP looked like it made decent prints, and would still cost half of what a laser printer would to operate. Installation First, it spends ...

Pros: print quality

Cons: breaks down too soon customer support lacking

The Bottom Line: Stay far away from anything with the HP name on it

Review: I bought this product to go along with my new HP computer because I have had good luck in the past with HP. Their print quality has always been stellar. But... since that time at my office our HP fax & HP printers have been nothing but trouble. After ...

Pros: Once I got a functioning printer, it works fine. Get the automatic duplexing.

Cons: It took much aggravation, persistence over 5 weeks to get a functioning printer.

Review: I like the automatic duplexing and the fact you can print economically and in black ink only which saves a lot of money. But I will never buy another item from HP until they figure out how to provide support properly when products don't work as ...
