Not exactly what you asked about, but want to comment that we're using a
HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 for over 2 years with great results. We use it
wired, and everything on the LAN can print to it at 192.168.100.5. It has a
web interface for scanning that beats everything I've used before. IIRC the
8600 is an upgrade of the 8500. We've used HP exclusively since switching to
Linux OSes in 2003, because HP provides drivers for Linux systems, and the
quality of their product for the price beats the competition (IMO).

I once did a fax from it, but refuse to use fax in the 21st century.

Cheers,
Bruce
