For basic printing functionality use the HPIJS driver . For advanced functionality such as printer status and maintenance features, use the HPLIP driver (which includes HPIJS).

Older comments:

Should work perfectly with the cdj880 driver; let us know (the author says, only for photos, not for text)!

I got a report from elenstev@mesatop.com that with the cdj880 driver (in GS 5.50) this printer only works in draft and presentation quality, the normal quality does not work. RET on/off seems to have no effect for him. This bug does not appear any more in GNU Ghostscript 6.51

Works well with hpdj/pcl3 at 300dpi.

Works OK at 600dpi with cdj850 driver, although colors are faded.

Brian, a Usenet contributor, is working with the hpdj/pcl3 author to improve support.

This is the same printer as the 880, with a retail box and idiot consumer software.

600dpi+ modes, and proper color modes are not documented by HP; reverse engineering efforts are not complete.
