Pros: wireless capability, price
Cons: everything is slow, and color ink HAS to be replaced when it runs out (will not even print in black without color ink).
This printer may do a lot of things, but it is so slow that it is almost not worth it. I have had it for almost a year and rarely use it.

Pros: Does everything it is advertised to do.
Cons: Difficult to set up because software was apparently corrupted.
Superior tech support to complete setup after spending a couple of hours trying to set it up from a corrupt disc that came with the new printer. After HP tech deleted all the files from my attempted installation and re-installed the software online, the J6480 works perfectly, except that I cannot use the fax function on my single phone line because my voice mail picks up incoming fax tone. Was told to either drop voice mail or get dedicated line. Am looking into magicJack to act as dedicated line.

Pros: Easy to change Ink Carts - because you will do it frequently. Another strength it was packaged very well. It sends FAXes well.
Cons: Corrupt software, very slow, small cap ink carts (by design I'm sure)
Most companies strive to better previous year models. HP has gotten worse this printer is or has got to be the most ignorant piece of crap they have unleashed on the public. I don't think this unit is a Lemon it has been changed out twice because the first two units were D.O.A. Am very displeased with this unit, and will have to avoid HP the next time I need a printer. HP's ink carts are costly and don't last very long with low to average home use. I know HP can do better than this monstrousity.

Pros: Easy set-up, very convenient wireless, all-in-one unit.
Cons: Haven't found any so far.
I've only had this printer-scanner-copier-fax machine for a few weeks, and have not had any problems. It's quick, easy, and quiet. Set up was a breeze, even for the fax machine part of it. I hear scare stories about fax machines every day from my company's customers, and I was worried about doing it. No problem; I just followed the instructions, plugged it into my cable company's Digital Voice phone jack, and it was good to go!

Pros: Fast printing, easy fax setup, great scanning software.
Cons: Set up of wireless connection.
The only problem I had with this was settig up a laptop to print wirelessly while at the same time using it "plugged" to my desktop. It took several hours over the course of a few days to finally get

Pros: Supports Wireless, USB, and standard wire lan. Scanning is very good for the normal user. Faxing is excellent.
Cons: Ink cartridges are a little pricey.
I have been using this printer for 2 1/2 weeks now. I find that it is a lot quiter then my 10 year old HP 912C Ink Jet. After installing the drivers on a laptop. The drivers look for the printer before the wireless lan comes up. After 1-2 minutes, everything is fine. I would buy this printer again.
Pros: Wireless low cost
Cons: Harder to setup
You would think that with a wireless printer, you could set it up wirelessly. Not so, you'll go through the usb setup and then wirless is available. Not so straight forward at that. I also seem to have issues if the printer has been unplugged or the power goes off, it can't be found easily by my computers afterwards. Nice that it has so much to offer at a reasonable price. I'd probably buy again, but perhaps HP will improve on these issues; at which point I would give them a higher rating. Cheers.
Pros: Priced affordablyRelatively small footprintBetter ink system than the competitionIt's wireless and can be put out of the wayInstallation was a breeze on an existing wireless network
Cons: None found as of yet
I bought this printer to replace a 5 yr. old bulky, ink-pricey Lexmark all-in-one that had stopped working. The J6480 was on sale and we've been wanting to go wireless to free up room on the desk/counter. So far everything is working as advertised. I was printing wirelessly within 15 minutes of installing the HP software. I would recommend this printer to anyone who is running a small home office such as myself.

Pros: Supports wired, wireless or usb connections. Great scanning, faxing and printing configurability
Cons: Pricey ink and poor q/c of hardware (this first printer was defective had to exchange for another)
The first printer I received was defective, it generated a high pitch keening noise. I had to exchange it for a working one. I've noticed that HP's q/c and support has gone downhill. After I received a working printer it worked fairly well. The fax, scanning and printing features are very configurable. You can send black and white or color faxes. I find the draft high speed printer settings produce a very fast and decent quality print. I have yet to see how long the ink will last.

Pros: Print anywhere because it is wireless
Cons: Ink maybe a little expensive (other printers do the same)
Love this printer very much. You can use as a scanner, photocopy, fax, print. It has three different modes of scan in order to scan the document fast or slow (low or high quality of scanning). You can fax the document either in color or black and white. The thing I like the most is that you can take it anywhere around the house because it is wireless. Just locked it into your router (required internet)
