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>
User report:<p>
Colour resolution under Linux is 600x600 dpi. HP claims the
Windows driver they ship with the printer enhances this using
<a
href="http://www.hp.com/all-in-one/products/1170-faqs.html#faq7">"PhotoRet
II"</a> technology. The driver basically changes the
amount of colors per dot by reducing the size of the
inkdrops. Supposedly the inkdrops are 70% smaller per dot than
those produced by the average DeskJet. After checking their site,
I found no driver to enable this same technology under any
UNICES. Still, this should be a nice printer overall under Linux,
so unleash that GIMP! This printer appears to be functionally
identical to the DeskJet 810C. I am currently using the 300dpi
DeskJet 550C colour Ghostscript setup as shipped with Red Hat
Linux 6.0, and the output is excellent in every respect. I have
marked the suggested driver as cdj880 as I am 99.9% certain it
will work and this driver should give the best output.
<p>
Good output should also be possible from the
"pcl3"/"hpdj" drivers.<p>
I believe that various papers like transparency, glossy, etc, are
supported by one or the other "cdjXXX" driver.<p>
Consumables/Refills: C1823 (CMY) and C6615A (K)<p>
