I bought this OfficeJet Pro 6978 All-in-One Printer because I was totally frustrated with my OfficeJet 6600 replacement printer problems. The OfficeJet 6978 is a breath of fresh air! One thing baffles me though: I had to replace all original print cartridges after only eight days. How many drops of ink do you put in the cartridges delivered with a new product? I have not enrolled in the HP Instant Ink plan.
Had an HP printer from 2000 that only printed. Liked it so much that I kept it when I purchased my current computer in 2012. Maybe not the best idea but that gave HP time to perfect the all-in-one concept. Hard to describe how much better this new printer is. Not only is it a superior printing device in all ways, I now have many more options for working with documents. Interface with computer has a few minor kinks to work out but these are issues I can work around.
I bought this printer a few weeks ago and after inserting the ink I closed the lid and it displays it had a problem with the printhead and I have no idea how to fix it! Very disappointed can't even find a phone number online or on the box!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi,
I am so sorry that this happened to you!
Sometimes this sort of problem can be fixed by doing a reset of your printer (unplugging it while it is still turned on, waiting a minute and then plugging it back in).
Phone numbers are usually not included with the printers because they are shipped all over the world and providing just one number wouldn't be possible.
However, we would be happy to help you if the reset doesn't get the printer up and running for you. Just contact us through a resource for your region that can be found at: hp.com/contactHP
