Advantages: Looks nice on my desk Disadvantages: It's a $1000 brick that doesn't do more than just look nice.

I've now spent over 7 hours trying to get my new HP printer to operate properly...

I keep getting an error saying that it can't copy a file. I am not mad... I'm irate. Tech support had me try about 15 different drivers, but only one would install... Of course it's not even close to being the correct driver, because it prints junk out, it does not use the duplex attachment, and it can't print on oversize paper (which is one of the main reasons that I bought a frikin $1000 printer.) In addition, every time I restart my computer it stalls for a few minutes so it can try to install drivers for my printer (of course it fails every time), this is because HP had me install a driver that wasn't designed for it and my computer thinks there isn't a driver installed yet. Tech Support said to call back the next day, but when I did they said they couldn't help me and they couldn't escalate the problem to engineering. Now I have no way to print for my company. I've been having to go to Kinko's to print stuff. I'm so glad I have a $1000 brick taking up a huge amount of real estate on my desk. I will NEVER buy HP products again. I feel like I just got raped and they didn't even have the courtesy to use lube.
