I have a HP 6150 all-in-1 with wireless, USB, and wired
capabilities. It works well for almost all I need to do.
Wireless photo printing is slow, however. I have not
tried using the FAX capabilities via wireless.
PROS:
- easy to setup
- works well with Linux, WinXP, WinVista, etc.
- can place the printer anywhere (centralized, in my kitchen)
- most printing functions work well (draft, normal, photo)
CONS:
- possible security issues (it's wireless....)
HP supports WPA preshared keys with AES-CCMP. So just choose a
dictionary resistant preshared key. Even with TKIP you are fairly safe
for now. The attack against TKIP is very limited. Heck, when we designed
TKIP we put a 5 year life on it and it has already been 8 years, so
those of us with our names on 802.11i (yes, I was there), feel 'secure'
with the history of TKIP. AES is in the HP wireless that I have seen.
- slower than wired, especially for photos
- have to use USB to access the scanner (not yet tested with F10)
[Note that I can scan via wireless from Windows.]
- cups won't print photos using the photo tray (4x6 photos)
[Not yet tested with F10.]
