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.] Cheers, -- Wade Hampton
