This was bought to replace my HP 7640 printer. There had been no issue with the 7640 and gave it to my son. With all the different brands on the market I thrust HP the most.!! HP always has been the best in my book and that's why I bought the 6978 HP.
I've had this for a month now. We've experienced 3 paper jams which seems excessive in the time we've had it. Besides that everything else works great.
First foray into wireless printing and I'm very pleased. I feel like I've finally entered into the 21st century and it is amazing. The printer was easy to set up and so far is reliable and output is great. The box is a little bigger than I was expecting but considering all that it does, I suppose that's what is needed. Decent price for the product and I didn't have to call 'Customer Support', which is a big plus.
I purchased the HP OfficeJet Pro 6978 All in One Printer . I set it up, turned it on and it FAILED OUT OF THE BOX! There is NO COLOR CONTROL. Reds are printed Yellow, full color pages come out GREEN!. There is NO link to correct software or color management problems. BAD EXPERIENCE! No return information provided.
Cons: More RAM, Smoother Mouse Pad
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
