Mechnically reasonably well designed.


Bad Points

User interface is absolutely shocking.


General Comments

The user interface on this office multi-function device is so poor as to make the device almost unusable even in an office three to four people.

The current device status for operations (i.e., fax, scan, copy, etc.) are poorly displayed, if at all. Selecting options for operations is clumsy, error prone, and requires more user input than necessary (phone number entry is a simple example). The next step in a process is often unclear, despite the fact that other actions will cancel the operation. The colour display is small (or the fonts too big) and poorly utilised; any colour icons are almost unrecognisable. This makes one wonder if a larger monochrome screen would have been a better choice.

However, the most egregious omission is in concurrent processing and fax memory. Every operation blocks the UI, including fax reception and transmission, meaning if a fax number is busy no other work can take place. Even in scan and fax mode, where the fax is scanned and then stored for later transmission, the UI is blocked. Similarly, the UI is blocked if a received fax is in memory.

In summary, HP Officejet Pro L7780 is useless unless you enjoy standing around waiting for your documents.
