This printer has been the answer to my problems.
We have four PC's and laptop in the house and printing was a pain. But the C6380 has solved all that. It lives on a shelf under the stairs, out of view but easily accessible.
Between our various PC's we have Windows XP, Vista 32bit and Vista 64bit. Everything worked fine from the supplied disk with XP but Vista failed to work. Downloaded the latest updated software from the HP website and both versions of Vista work perfectly.
Wireless setup is painless to say the least. Standalone operation is excellent. Photo print output is top notch and more than a match for our previous Canon Pixma 4200. Only downside is that it gets a bit noisy while sorting itself out (changing print trays etc). The actual printing is relatively quiet. If you have it in your bedroom and you do some late night/early morning printing, you could curse it.
But overall an easy 5 star device......highly recommended. Only the Canon MP620 may top it.

On the downside, the printer software takes an age to load, is not that easy to use and is poorly documented, and its scanning capabilities seem pretty limited compared to a dedicated flatbed. I also wish the built-in display could be disabled and that it would turn itself off too. But these are all minor issues really. The print quality is excellent and very fast, and the printer is pretty compact. But for me it's the wireless capability which sets it apart from the competion. This is a great feature to have particularly if you have a laptop so you can print from anywhere without a cable. For the money, I don't think you can do better.

I previously had a HP Photosmart C5180 which was superb at printing photo's, if not a bit pricey to keep stocked in ink. However the hinge on the back of the scanner bed which you had to lift to get to the ink cartridges broke (I think it is a design fault) and, wanting to go wireless, I thought i'd try another HP - the C6380. What a pain it has been.
The instructions indicate that you can only use it entirely wireless or via usb - not both. I set it up on my wireless network and the software installation on my Mac Powerbook went without a hitch - but on my Vista PC it kept failing part way through. Eventually by fiddling with antivirus and firewall and closing everything else I could think of down it installed but would it print - no way. It would scan ok but print jobs just spooled blank paper with error messages. In the end I gave up and used a usb cable instead and it seems to be working ok on both so far. I see other people have had problems with it on vista.
I have a mate who has just bought a Canon MP620 and he had no such problems - I would recommend going for one of those instead.Canon PIXMA MP620 Printer
