Recommended Driver: gutenprint (Home page, Driver packages: x86 32 bit: 5.2.7 (RPM for LSB 3.2) (Signed), 5.2.7 (DEB for LSB 3.2) (Signed), 5.0.1 (RPM for LSB 3.1) (Signed), 5.0.1 (DEB for LSB 3.1) (Signed), x86 64 bit: 5.2.7 (RPM for LSB 3.2) (Signed), 5.2.7 (DEB for LSB 3.2) (Signed), 5.0.1 (RPM for LSB 3.1) (Signed), 5.0.1 (DEB for LSB 3.1) (Signed) (How to install))
Generic Instructions: CUPS, no spooler
 

Miscellaneous

Printer supports direct text printing with the 'us-ascii' charset.

Comments

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).

With HP's HPLIP this printer can be used as a printer of the old DeskJet 900 series (DeskJet 970C and alike), but the photo mode is not supported.

300x300 and 600x600 works, all print quality settings work, compressions work.

This is a very fast printer; probably 3x as fast as typical inkjets of that time.

Output is very good quality - 30 to 45 sec for a page with a 6x6in photo and text.

Variants include Cse, Cxi, CN (network).

Consumables/Refills: 4 cartridges: one for each colour of CMYK. Also 4 replaceable printheads.
