It's just the driver that prevents me from recommending it.

Scan to network folder seems to be considered a "high end" feature for some reason. We get it on our big Konica multi-function copy machines. I've seen it in stand-alone network-attached scanners costing > $1500. But not in the lower-cost devices. I've looked at lower-cost multi-function devices from HP, Epson, Canon, and Brother, and none of them seem to be able to do scan-to-folder. They all expect you to control the scanning from a PC, either using their software, or using a web-based interface to the printer. This is a major pain, since you have to walk to the printer, load your document, walk back to your desk, run the scan (and hope nobody has unloaded your document to make a copy in the meantime).

I can't speak to that model in particular, but HP provides a simple "driver package" for most of their stuff that works okay for point-and-print (Add Printer Wizard). I've found the software quality of HP's drivers in general has been steadily declining over the years (slow, over-complicated, erratic UI behavior, etc.), but that's the same regardless of how the drivers get installed. -- Ben ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~ ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~ ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
