For basic printing functionality use the <a
href="http://hplipopensource.com/">HPIJS
driver </a>. For advanced functionality such
as printer status and maintenance features, use the
<a href="http://hplipopensource.com/">
HPLIP driver</a> (which includes HPIJS). <p>
The best output one gets with HP's HPIJS 1.3 or newer. If you
cannot update to HPIJS 1.3 for some reason, you can also use HPIJS
1.2.2 with the patches from Matthias Bunte and Richard
Spencer-Smith ("hpijs-rss"). The Gimp-Print driver also
works (Model setting: "pcl-900"), but only up to 600
dpi.<p>
*****User Report*******<p>
I used the "DeskJet 550C/560C/6xxC" driver from
RedHat's Printtool. I also enabled the fix for stair
steping. According to the webpage, it does up to 2400x2400 under
windows, but that is because of the PhotoREt III color layering
technology, which from what I understand, just makes the ink
droplets smaller. The GS driver limits it to 600x600, I
believe. I hope all the info I entered here is correct, please
someone correct me if I'm wrong.<p>
So, like most recent HP models, this printer qualifies for, at
best, "Mostly". Most of the best printing modes
aren't really supported properly, because HP doesn't
document their newer printers.<p>
*****Different User*******<p>
I find it works perfectly on black text using this driver,hwoever
color horrible. Color is better using the "500/6xxC"
series driver, but black text is just a wee bit off at the very
bottom of the page. Using the 800 series drivers sends the color
to the left, and is unable to print thr 1" margin at the
bottom. Someone needs to add a decent driver... I want to print
photos!<p>
*****Different User*******<p>
I just got the new "880C/882C/895C" driver, and I think
it gives a slightly crisper image than the 550C, and so far it
works well.<p>
*****Different User*******<p>
"stp" is slow but better than other drivers for
photos. However the quality is still very poor as compared to a
PostScript printer. I would recommend **not** purchasing this
printer (or most other HP inkjets if you want to print photos) for
use with Linux. I tried emailing HP several times because of their
claims of supporting Linux, but never received a response. They
also claim printing support on sourceforge yet I found none from
HP.<p>
*****Different User*******<p>
"hpdj" driver works well and is included with debian;
However, the "stp" driver provides cleaner results. I
printed a photograph in windows and linux, unfortunately the
colors and resolution in windows were both highly
superior.. although the quality in linux was acceptable for
draft-quality work.<p>
