Unlucky not to have one of those?!! then connect via the Direct input port.
Performance is splendid with print quality being determined through the Printer Properties selected in Print Preview. Fast Draft is VERY Fast and ideal for printing drafts in either colour or B&W with spot colour. Photo's on glossy photo paper and with BEST or MAXIMUM DPI options selected produce photo quality output that rivals that of professional printworks.
We have experienced two problems with the printer -
- A cartridge was not installed correctly? and caused the carriage to jam - prompting a visit to PCW where a little shove sorted the issue.
- We constantly received, not very helpful, error messages from the printer on our desktop causing us to reboot the PC. We determined that moving the connection from a 7 port powered USB hub to a direct USB connection in the PC resolved these errors.
Overall an excellent package in a nicely designed format. The desktop footprint is a little large needing up to 20" of depth but for those eager to maximise shelf space the printer is no more than 9" high - paper feed is front loading and front ejecting.
Very impressive. Fast is fast and quality is superb. This printer from the 7700 series is available for about £150 at time of review. Ink usage is a little heavy in quality mode - but you do get the quality!

PCI card for the "host PC" - you don't. But we make good use of the overspend in machines on our test workbench.
** We currently run -
1 Desktop "Host PC" running WIN ME
1 Desktop client running WIN XP-Home
1 Laptop client running WIN 2000 Pro
1 Test PC running whatever we need (from Win 95 Up)
1 HPPhotoSmart7762 (hooked to the Host)
With the additional network cards, where required, they are all connected to our Cable ISP and life is glorious ... or is it?
We had tremendous problems getting the router to function - RTFM? But the support staff were exemplary and really wanted this thing to work.
One (free) call had it up and running AND talking to the laptop.
But - when we could read the laptop from the router - but not the other way round, the support ceased ... "Here are some websites to read up ...
