"High speed deskjet with cool metallic styling and wireless. But non-admin users cannot print!"
Pros: Wireless hook-up, good speed and easy to set up wireless.
Cons: Major flaw in print software design allows only admin users to print.
Summary: I like the printer in all areas except the above mentioned print driver issue. If you are a non-admin user, the printer will not print. A printer error appears 30 seconds after sending a print job. As soon as you give the user admin rights to the computer, print jobs come out fine.
I have checked HP's web site for updated drivers, and have used HP's on-line web support. HP's on-line Web support personnel say you HAVE to give admin rights for printing to work.
This is a major security flaw, and I'm supprised the Cnet review did not discover this.
I still own the printer because I like it's print quality and features, but I'm hoping HP will come out with a fix for this very soon.

This will keep other people who happen to get on my network from printing.

A non-admin user on my home network, running Windows XP (SP2) has no trouble printing on this printer.

Excellent catch on Non-Admin's not being able to print. That is pretty retardedfor HP to do that.
