I'm looking forward to

I'm looking forward to getting feedback.  We've got multiple computers in our house and bought our all in one right before they added networking features.  It'd be nice to not have to run the laptop to the printer each time I need to print something!

I would LOVE wireless printing!

We have a desktop computer and three laptops in our house and are constantly having to go to the printer or move the printer anytime we want to print something.  It wastes a lot of time and energy!  Most of the time I decide not to print a picture or whatever else because I don't want the hastle.  We would love to have the option to print from any of our computers and be able to keep the printer in the same place, plugged in and with paper (what a novel idea) and then print whatever we want or need! 

 

We have several computers in

We have several computers in our house... one in my Father-in-laws room, one in the Office/craft room and one in the dining room... the dining room does not have a printer.... An ALL in ONE WIRELESS would be awesome.... First there would only be ONE printer to buy ink for!!!!! YEAH!  Second, we would not have to have one printer for each computer and get rid of the scanner.... Saving space and money.  Finally everyone could print and scan and I could print AWESOME photos.  OH THE EASLY LIFE.  

 

thanks for the awesome giveaway!

Love Wireless!!

I think my most exciting wireless moment was when I was on my laptop in my living room controlling itunes on my desktop in the other room, and playing it all on my stereo in yet another room. Location didn't matter.

I don't "do" wired these days. I have two wireless computers, an Airport Express (for the stereo hookup), two TiVos, and two Direct TV DVR's. Oh, and my iphone. (I don't have a printer or scanner) They're all running wireless. Its pretty funny when my network goes down, EVERYTHING complains.

My computer desk is unused these days, without wires, there's no need to sit in one specific place on the computer. Wherever I am, I can use my internet. It's wonderful and I truly don't know how I survived without it. 

 

HP Photosmart Give away

As a homeschool mom, we've got our Mac Book all over the house. It would be so nice to just be able to push a button and print from where ever we are instead of needing to go to the office to connect to the printer. I find I am always needing to print something for science especially this printer would be a God send.

Printer is the only hiccup

Everything else related to computing is wireless in my house and the printer being wired is always the only hiccup in that set-up. It would be so liberating to have a wireless printer, too.

 

Ohhh, so looking forward to the reviews!

I always have had HP desktops and printers, but my PSC750 all in one scanner finally stopped working after like, five years, so I went cheap and got a Lexmark all-in-one.  Big mistake-the scanner won't work with my Dell laptop, and it's wired, which mean pain in the buttocks unless I'm tied down, lol. We have three desktops and two laptops in house, being a multi-generational household of seven...having a wireless printer would simplify our home's functioning quite a bit.  We print schedules, chore charts, homework,work-work, e-tickets...you name it.

I'm looking forward to reading what the reviewers think-especially Anissa!

wireless ROCKS

all our computer hullaballoo is in the basement. THE BASEMENT. where spiders and crickets live. where the children aren't allowed because boxes may topple over and kill them at any moment.

 

having wireless has allowed me to get up out the basement and work in sunlight and keep a super close eye on the children. I LOVE ME SOME WIRELESS.

 

now, if only i could figure out a way to print from the upstairs without emailing stuff to the basement computer to be printed downstairs... that would be dreamy.

 

Wireless is freedom

Having a wireless network in my home has given me the freedom to do what needs to be done from anywhere in my house. The only time "wireless" doesn't work for me is when I need to print something because my current does not work wirelessly.

I love photography and constantly take pictures. When we have guests, they always request prints of at least one photo and I have to trek upstairs to the computer desk and print them from there. This takes me from my guests, which is discouraging since I rather be spending time with them.

 

Wireless? What's that? LOL!

I feel a little bit at a disadvantage here because I really haven't experienced how great going wireles can be. I guess I'm one of those "tethered" people because almost everything I do has to be done at my desk. We don't have a laptop of our own. But, on the nights when my husband brings home his work laptop, I definitely take full advantage! It's so nice to be upstairs with my family instead of down in our extra room. I can pay attention to the laundry cycles, check on anything I have in the oven or on the stove and sit comfortably on the couch and enjoy more family time. I've been wanting to buy a laptop for some time. Having a wireless printer would be even more motivation to make it happen!

Wireless would save me from the dungeon!

Here's why I'd LOVE to get a wireless printer:

No more putting on my winter gear to head down to the basement computer/printer to print stuff!  I loathe having to leave the comfort of my living room or home office just to head down to the cold dungeon of a basement I have, especially during the Kansas winter!

What an awesome treat it would be!

Wireless freedom

Hey, that would mean I could stick it somewhere besides on my space saving desk which frankly has no room for the printer that is wedged in it.  I could put it in the laundry room. Or by bedroom.  Or in the closet!  Nice options in a 900 sq ft house!

 

keep out of reach of children!

Going wireless would be a beautiful thing!  With a kindergartener and three boys age 3 and under, we'd be able to put the printer up and out of the way.  Then the children wouldn't use all the paper or put pennies inside or remove the print cartridges...the benefits are endless!

 

Wireless gives me freedom in

Wireless gives me freedom in so many ways - I don't have to change rooms to print if I'm on my laptop, I don't have to take up valuable desk space for the printer since I can locate it anywhere, friends and family can easily use it when visiting without changing wired connections, and I have one less cord snaking through the room!

 

Wireless HP Printer

I would really love to have a wireless printer. Right now my printer is next to my desk close to the floor where my 2 yr old granddaughter can get to it. I had to stop loading it with paper because she kept taking all of it to color on. If I had a wireless printer I could loaded it up and put it out of her reach and never have to worry about it again.

 

The Time/Space Continuum

I don't have the time to deal with all the chaos left on my very small, very cluttered 'kitchen' desk.  It's crowded with all the regular computer peripherals, including my printer as well as the main phone with answering machine, the digital camera, the bills, the homework, the cell phones and chargers, the all-you-can-eat buffet of desks.

The wireless HP would allow me to put it elsewhere and replace that cherished amount of desktop space with something that allows me to properly organize.  I guarantee that my current printer doesn't appreciate being used as an in box and I am certain that DH hates my current clutter mess also.

HP, thank you for making the printer wireless!  I WANT ONE!  Chaos won't stand for "Can't have anyone over syndrome" any more if I can just get the mess on my desk cleaned up!

Sweet Freedom

We have a laptop now but the printer was bought when we had our desktop so it's not wireless. It's an HP and I do love it but, it takes me so much time to stop what I'm doing, unplug my laptop, go to the bedroom (we keep it there so it's safe from the toddler monster), plug in the cables, turn on the printer (it stays off most of the time since it's not really used that much), wait for it to warm up and print. Then reverse it all. By the time I'm done with a small print job-my little monster has climbed the gate to the bathroom and is pouring shampoo all over the floor or he's decided to go fishing in the fish tank! It would save me tons of time to just click print from the living room and quickly grab my finished print job while he's distracted by Spongebob. A wireless printer will give me SWEET FREEDOM of bathroom messes and fishy funerals!

Ah, I love wireless. No

Ah, I love wireless. No messy cords to deal with (which means no cords for my son to put in his mouth). I can print from anywhere in the room without stopping to plug my laptop in to the printer? Sign me up!

Wireless freedom equals no cords to trip over. No cords for baby to get tangled in. And it makes it easier for all of us to share the printer. I love it. I want it.

Coming Untied

I finally created a tiny little office in my basement so that I could work on my law school reading without interruption. The only problem is everytime I print something for clarification, I have to disrupt my progress, and go upstairs. This ultimately leads to getting involved with other conversations, projects, or snuggling with my puppy. So going wireless would drastically improve my educational performance. And everyone knows the world would not be complete without more lawyers :)

Attainable Goals

My 8-year-old HP OfficeJet has been a real trooper. It's been through three different computers, 6 long-distance moves (packed in an ill-fitting box), and even survived a glass of wine spilled into it. But, sad to say, the abuse has aged it before it's time and I can no longer get either the color printing nor the fax to work. To paraphrase, if I had known it would last this long I would have taken better care of it. I don't particularly need a wireless printer, but I definitely need a new HP.

 

Wireless would be awesome!

Wireless would be awesome! We are always putting things on jump drives and plugging them into whatever computer is attached to whatever printer. My husband's laptop won't connect with our printers, so he's always having to do this. He would love a wireless printer!

Freedom. Freedom! FREEDOM!

Wireless would give me the freedom from having to go back to my old desktop every time I want to print.  I usually have to email something to myself.  Wait a decade for the old computer to open the browser and download the file, and then it takes FOREVER to print.

It would allow me to printer whenever and wherever from my laptop which would be so much easier than emailing myself all those files!

 Thanks!

There must be some bad HP printers out there
...

... but I've never owned one!  Lexmark & Epson printers have come and gone, plagued with paper jams, printer spool crashes, and DOA ink cartridges.  But my HP printers have lasted nearly forever.  

My 6-year-old HP all-in-one still works, but it lacks the features of newer models, particularly wireless and photo-enhanced printing.  To print a document,I have to switch machines,  transferring the files by emailing them to myself or dumping them on a flash drive and carrying them to the computer with the printer.

And while it may be a small thing compared to other problems, since I upgraded to Vista, the HP software scanning interface no longer works. I have to use the Windows scanning interface which gives me a lot less control over scanning options.   Upgrade me, please!

HP Wireless

Now that would make printing so much easier from my laptop!    No more emailing to my husband's computer, and scanning, etc....  Please, I need the upgrade.    but good luck the lucky girls

 

Wireless Printer you say?!

I don't own a Printer and I'm in NEED of one desperately! I haven't had one for so long and have never had the experience of having a Wireless Printer. It would be SO liberating to see NO wires for a Printer. Please, please 'hook' me up with a Printer! Pun intended! LOL :)

With a toddler at home, wireless would really help.

I could print from the laptop in my bedroom to the other room if I had a wireless printer.

 

Another step into the future

Thus making my life a bit easier. I would love the easier portability of a wireless printer without the hassle of having to hook and rehook it up everytime I make a move.

Everyone always tells me I"m wired, I'd like to hear the opposite for a change!!!  :)
