 HP Deskjet Printer 6988 November 10, 2008

Another fine HP printer. I have used a series of these over the years. The 6988 has the wireless function and it is very nice. My son did the set-up on the IBM machines in our house (somewhat more difficult). I did the set-up for my MacBook Pro without even using the CD that is supplied with the printer. This is a quality HP printer and functions quite well on both typewritten and photo pages. My wife and I are quite pleased with it!
BEST PRINTER AROUND AAA+++++++ October 27, 2008

Best printer around. I was a little hesitant since it is wireless(however it can be used both ways) I've had this for about 2 months and it was easy to set up. Prints wonderfully and HP customer assistance is outstanding. Took about 20 minutes to install. Excellent buy for the money.
I love the wireless feature of this printer. October 23, 2008

Since I often got tips from Amazon reviewers, I decided to write about my experience regarding the installation of the wireless connection and the software installation. Hopefully, some people with similar computer configuration as mine will find useful.
I have a 2wire Gateway connected to my main computer which using Windows XP.
The first step is to make your network to see the printer wirelessly. "A2: The Wireless: Connect Now" method on the Setup guide works wonderfully for me. On step 2, since my security setting is still using WEP, I selected the manual option. The only information I need to enter was my SSID and WEP key. The rest of the steps till step 6 on the same page went through smoothly as described. At this point your printer is placed on your network wirelessly. The whole process has completed without physical connection of any kind between your printer and your computer. My printer is located at a different floor.
The second step is to install the driver and the software on each computer that you want to use this printer to print wirelessly. The supplied CD would not start. I went to the HP support site, and downloaded the full feature version for both my Windows XP and Vista machines. Both version installed easily and printed great from my three different computers. I selected custom install to eliminate the junks which came with the software. So far I have not noticed any slow down in any of my systems.
I only had this printer since yesterday. So far I really love it. It is really neat that I can share one printer with many of my computers, and also be able to print anywhere in the house. The print quality is very good for my purpose. I have tried a Lexmark wireless printer several months ago, and it was a nightmare. I almost did not buy this printer because of that experience.
Good printer but tricky to load in our case October 14, 2008

Our son has one and it loaded with no problem. Ours took a great deal of time to start working but finally did. No idea why but we are satisfied with the unit. A little slow but meets our needs anyway.
 Stay away from the 69xx series October 4, 2008

I purchased a 6980 printer about 18 months ago. I tried installing it on both a iBook and an IBM laptop. Neither worked and I had to call HP for support. Even then, it tool well over an hour to get it working. Now, it's stopped working again, and I cannot get it installed. If I want help from HP, I have to pay because the printer is out of warranty.
The 6988 looks exactly the same, so have to wonder what they've done to improve it.
