HP OfficeJet j4580 All-In-One Inkjet Printer

Shame on HP for discontinuing a great printer

When HP first introduced its Model J4580 all-in-one printer (print, copy, FAX, and scan) not too many years ago, it installed easily using the supplied CD and worked like a charm on the first try. Replacing ink cartridges and self alignment was a breeze also. My first one lasted many years but finally failed mechanically after a week or warning clunking sounds. When I contacted HP, I was informed that the J4580 was no longer available. The closest current model would require new downloads from the Internet to become operational. That might be fine for computers connected to the Internet but for standalone computers isolated from the Internet for protection, it was unacceptable. What to do? Although HP no longer supplies the J4580, it is still available on Amazon or e-Bay, and I bought a replacement there. It works just fine, just like its predecessor. HP needs to learn to offer printers that are retro-compatible. That is, they will operate on previously installed drivers and related software for older models. One of the fundamental pillars of engineering wisdom is: Newer is not necessarily better.Read full review

It's a HP- J4580 All-in-One printer.

I bought as a backup printer since I've already owned two. First one lasted 6 years. I just hope it works when I go to hook it in a couple of years. I paid $45 for each of the other two.

Great Replacement

I had the same printer that was 13 yrs old and died. Just hooked it up to old equipment. Bought new for $100.00 back then. Working great!

Already submitted a positive review, but it's worth saying that the printer arrived in tack, is working just great and came earlier than promised.
