Please don't call me Mr. Dum-Dum here! However, the very first Word document that I sent to this printer, printed so FAST that I thought I had done something wrong! This printer is SCARY fast. I am an old "Techno Slow Poke" and I can easily remember the days when, if you sent a document to your printer, you then went to top off your Coffee. The document was ALMOST finished printing by the time you returned! Praise God, those days are OVER! Good riddance to them!

Prints are excellent quality. Paper tray holds a lot of paper and ink cartridges are easy to install. So far printer has been trouble free.

Will NEVER buy another HP product

I bought this printer for my classroom because I thought it was a good deal. It was on sale but was I wrong! About 1 month after use, it started to squeek (loudly!) whenever it printed. Then about one month later, it ran out of ink! I don't even use it to print on a daily basis, so not that much ink was even used. I will NEVER buy another HP product! I'll use my old one at home before I'll use this one again! And of course, the problems started AFTER I could return it!!!!

Good utility printer, has been helpful in conference rooms where guests need to print from wireless devices. Have had problems with direct USB print connections on Mac Books using either the latest HP printer drivers for 10.7 OS, or, using the Apple downloads.

The Officejet 6100 replaced a Photosmart 7260 when I recently replaced my desktop. HP no longer makes moderate priced 6-ink printers like the 7260 or my older Photosmart 8250. I was hoping that the 6100 would produce photo enlargements as good as those older printers but it doesn't. Aside from only being a 4-ink printer, the 6100 has no color management capability and its output color balance is definitely off. So I've had to find an outside service to print my enlargements. Having said that, the 6100 is a fine utility printer which, to be honest, satisfies 95%+ of my printing needs. On that basis, it's a keeper.

Excellent day-to-day fast text printing, Can be hardwired or connected wirelessly. Easy to setup. Sleek modern black fiish. Uses three independent color cartridges plus black. That's a nice feature; if one color cartridge needs replacing, it can be replaced while continuing to use the other two. I do not, however, use this printer to print picures. For that. I use a dedicated high-end printer.

I think others have posted similar comments. It prints fine. I love the big paper tray. I wasn't looking for anything fancy. It is however, NOISY and rattles/shakes when it's printing and when it aligns(?) the cartridges. I am guessing that maybe the plastic housing for the printer is insufficient for the internal print mechanism... Noise is not a real issue so I can live with it. I can't see it being used in an office environment though......

I downloaded the latest version of the software and it took less than five minutes to setup the darn thing. The printer itself was incredibly noisy when first plugged in--what the heck was it doing? The printing speed is fairly fast and having a tray is definitely a plus. I just wished it had a double-sided printing feature and a cutback on the cacophony that accompanies a print job.

Print quality is acceptable, albeit unforgiving for any photo quality papers but HP. Wireless set up, the main selling point of this product, is incredibly poorly explained in the instructions. Only partially Windows 8 compatible. Shocking for a current generation product.

I miss what my good old Canon could do, namely divide a long message into paper size segments so it could be printed on both sides. This can only do that when message is set up by page numbers.
Or have I missed something?

For the money perfect little printer. While not really purchashed for photo's it is perfect for email printing and for using with tablets and Apple products such as Ipad and Ipods. Easy set up. Only took 10 minutes to set up my Ipad for printing. Good prduct for the money and got it on sale for 60 dollars.

Printer set up okay. Was able to set it up on a wireless system used by three computers. The two Windows based machines was simple and worked right away. The MAC AIR was a little difficult in that I had to go onto HP website to download a very large file that took a while to complete. But the printer works well. I set up the ePrint using my iphone and it set up easily and works well. It is very noisy. And I mean VVEERRYY noisy. It is also a little bit slow.
