Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This item appears to be the `premium' version of another item that already had Amazon reviews, mainly positive.I chose this item in part because it put the order over the free shipping threshold.
A reviewer of the other item claimed that Windows instantly recognized the device with no need to install the provided drivers.
He also indicated that it might not work with older parallel devices whose drivers couldn't handle `virtual ports.'So it was with some hesitation that I made this purchase as my device, an HP Deskjet 890C, is at least five years old.
In my case, driver installation was required.The provided instructions, though in unusually good English, indicated that the drivers for Win XP had to be downloaded from their site, were not on the provided CD.I tried installing from CD anyway, seeming two drivers were loaded in sequence.XP then instantly recognized my printer and it works fine.I've not tried any other devices.
