They work very well PROVIDED you buy a DJ that is NOT a "Win Printer." I made the mistake of purchasing the HP DeskJet 712C, which is a Windows-only printer (braindead printer, most printing is done by Windows proprietary software). I exchanged it for a HP DeskJet 697C, which works great under Linux. The 712c listed Windows as a system requirement; the 697c said the printer would work under Windows AND DOS... I guess that's the determining factor. I believe (not sure, though) that the 800 series also work under Linux. The 690 series are definately a go, though. (My dad has a 693c which also works great).
