Least expensive HP dual sided scanner printer. Prints relatively quickly and has a lot of the extra HP bells and whistles. The HP Ink service also seems to be a no brainer for this machine.
Purchased a new 6978 in September 2016. Printer failed in January 2018. Would not print using black ink cartridge. Followed all recommended solutions to no avail. Purchased replacement printer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Overall, I am pleased with HP OfficeJet Pro 6978 performance. However, the tray for retrieving printed paper presents some difficulty in exiting and entering the printer.
I haven't had it that long but I'm very happy with it so far. I love the multi-page scanner, which does far more than any of my previous home scanners. This is the first time I've gone wireless and that is wonderful. And the monthly ink plan is going to make things so much easier!
