I have had ongoing problems with the wireless networking, wireless networking and usb connectivity. The wireless works for a couple of hours the mysteriously stops working. I can't the usb drivers to install properly. It's been pretty frustrating. I guess you get what you pay for.

I was pleasantly surprised by this printer. It was certainly priced well! Also, although not super fast, it did produce very nice output. Even photos were OK. Mind you, I didn't connect this wirelesly as such. I connected it using ethernet cable to my Wifi Hub. So I had no network issues. I installed Windows 7 drivers from the HP site without issues. I was also happy to see that the printing from iPhone/iPad worked wirelessly! Don't know how it does that, but I love it!

    I can't seem to connect it wirelessly to my macbook :(

How do you connect a macbook to the printer wirelessly?
Can you do it without the CD? (my CD place is broken)
Please help ...

    Connectivity

I have had this printer since December 2010; installation still fails because drivers will not install - we are now May 2011. But 'Wifi' you say? It must be great but not even USB cable connection has been achieved here. 'Uninstall' will not do so so cleanly, leaving files all over the disk so apparently you only get one run at installation and after that even the Scrubber program does not help.
I am about to throw the printer out and find a colour laser that has real working installation software; that means at least I don't lose everything by having to reinstall Windows7.
This has got to be a printer to beware of; there are no real answers to the problem coming out of HP that I have read.

    Printing

    No traditional wifi

How the heck does HP expect me to connect this in an office with no WPS!!! There should be a warning on the box in giant bold font. Another example of HP cutting corners.
