5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent all in one replacement for a colour laser, 19 July 2007
This review is from: HP Officejet Pro L7780 Wireless Network Enabled All-in-One Printer, Scanner, Copier and Fax (Electronics)
I purchased the L7780 to replace an Oki C5200n colour laser printer and an HP Office Jet 6110.
I've now used the machine for 2 months and can't fault it. I was worried about print quality - but it is excellent. Scan speed is excellent. WiFi printing works fine too. I was worried that the machine would be as flimsy as my old 6110 - but it's solid.
If I had one niggle it is that when printing on duplex in 'normal' quality, there is a brief pause in printing whilst the ink is drying. I solved this by printing in 'draft' quality where the ink does not need to dry - and which is perfect for most documents I print.
Consumables appear to be lasting well too.
The final great thing about this printer is that when not in use it is completely silent. I was used to the humming of a colour laser in the background for 20 minutes or so after it had completed printing. Well done HP!!!

Great office printer, 16 July 2008
This review is from: HP Officejet Pro L7780 Wireless Network Enabled All-in-One Printer, Scanner, Copier and Fax (Electronics)
HP Officejet Pro L7780 Printer
I just bought this printer and have been using it for a few days so I thought I'd write a review of my experiences thus far. I had read a few reviews before purchasing it and was somewhat confused as it had got mixed ones.
Setting up was very easy. By this, I mean I could send a fax within seconds of turning it on, connected it to the home network which only involved putting in the network key etc. The only thing that took me more than 5 minutes to do was to set up the network folders. The instructions included were rubbish really. I had to go onto the hp website to get the full intructions but once I did, i had no issues accessing folders set up on my pc from the printer and sending stuff to them. Also, I haven't experienced any issues such as network dropouts etc. That kind of stuff could be down to the router rather than the printer itself.
I've only really printed documents so I cant really comment to much on the qulaity. I did however print a 4" x 6" photo which came out better than I expected. It also prints right to the edges with no white border which I like.
All in all, I would recommend this printer and I do think its worth the extra money. There arent too many other machines that have as many features as this.

Beware before you buy this printer!!, 8 Mar 2009
This review is from: HP Officejet Pro L7780 Wireless Network Enabled All-in-One Printer, Scanner, Copier and Fax (Electronics)
I got this printer last year and it worked OK for a good few months. Then trouble started. Scanning failed to work and the HP solution - reinstall the software suite. Great fun! Then after installing XP Service Pack 3 all went pear shaped - mirror image printing, no scanning etc. HP solution - uninstall Service Pack 3. More fun.
Now the really good part. I got a new laptop with XP Pro last week and the HP printer installation failed on several occasions. My IT support company couldn't help and in the end we had to reinstall Windows as registry entries were corrupted.
After many, many hours on the phone to HP technical support they have finally agreed that this printer will not work with XP Service Pack 3.
If you have this version of Windows, save yourself hours of grief - DO NOT BUY THIS PRINTER!!
