- LOVE THIS
I do not know why people are complaining on the reviews about this printer. I've had alot of great times with it, and yes you have to learn how to play with settings, but you also have to know what you are doing in dealing with the printer quality and the way your printer and computer interact. As you would with ANY printer.
I just got done taking 2 college courses that touched upon it. You have to know how to set it up and how to do it, its not spy speak but it is something that takes ... Read More

- Updated Drivers work better
I was having a lot of problems printing in the 13x19 format. It would reject the paper saying incorrect paper size. Then the print spooler would not delete the spooled file unless I rebooted the computer and the printer itself.
I went to HPs site and downloaded their bare bones driver and replaced the ones that came on the CD. And amazingly enough so far the 13x19 printing problems are gone!

Doesn't know if it has ink or not -- that light just stays on.
Cancel button is worthless.Cancel = unplug!
Set up to do the fancier things it is supposed to do is a challenge worthy a rocket scientist.

- Great deal on an 11x17 printer
I've been using the HP Deskjet 9800 for a couple of months now and it's been terrific. Set-up was a snap. Printing is fast and sharp. Make sure you have a USB cable long enough for your placement.
