Almost Perfect
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
It does it all and it does it well. I would’ve prefered a way to lay something I was copying down so that I could copy any size, but I have another HP that does that so …. it is a great machine, a great bargain.

Great Except…
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
So the printer is great except for one thing. The only way to scan and photocopy items is by feeding them through the printer, this means that it is impossible to photocopy a page from a book or from a notebook without physically ripping the page out. As a student, this is a total bummer to me. Other than that, I haven’t used all the tools like the fax yet but it seems to be working well. My other issue is that installing it to my laptop was a huge pain. My laptop kept trying to automatically install the hardware but it couldn’t locate the info from the internet, then when I tried to install through the disc it kept giving me problems. Eventually it worked though.

Great all-in-one for a jobsite office, but I cannot get the software on my laptop. The software is so particular about such things as screen resolution that it cannot install on the new 10″ mini-laptops. Why HP put in such stringent installation guidelines I have no clue. When I find a work-around I can give you a review on the printer.

Does all 4 print tasks great
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I bought this printer 1 week ago, although I was a bit skeptical about its performance, based on the mixed reviews. I had no trouble at all with the set up. I have tested every function and they all work just as expected. The speed is not fast, but my printing is limited to 3-5 pages a day. The phone works fine – dialing and hearing. Other people ask me a repeat sometimes so the microphone may not be sensitive.

1) No USB cable to connect to the computer.
2) Picking up a phone call takes about 2 second to connect.
Have not printed because the lack of USB cable but the test print was good.

Piece of junk
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
I bought this because my old HP all-in-one, after giving good service for a few years, would not scan. Tech support was unable to correct this problem, although they tried very hard. I bought this to replace my old one, because I scan a lot of things: artwork, photos, etc.
I am surprised that HP are not ashamed to put their name on this product. Basically it is a fax machine, and the entire Users Manual is given over to setting up the fax function. There are no instructions about either printing or scanning. It looks like a fax and acts like a tricked out fax. It is impossible to use as a scanner because it has no flatbed. Small items cannot be scanned. It is flimsy and poorly constructed. I think it might be worth $20 or $30 for someone who needs a fax machine and is willing to go to a lot of trouble to set it up.
When I tried to print a test page or a couple of pages from the manual the paper invariably jammed. I guess the rollers were not set properly at the factory.

Great combination printer

I bought this for my Dad for Father’s Day, and so far so good. It looks great, prints great, and does what he really needed it for, faxing! He is sort of low on technology know-how, but he is able to do this completely on his own. Very easy to set up and use. I would recommend. Great price too!

The all in one HP J-3680 is an excellent compact machine. I previously owned two other all in one HP models and they performed excellent.
I would purchase another model in the future. The seller also was excellent, it shipped and arrived on time and in good condition.

I’m happy with my new HP J3680 in all respects with the exception of ink cartridge life. I’ve noticed many other users report the same criticism. That will be less important if I find that refilling it’s ink cartridges myself is easy and successful. I used and was happy with it’s almost identical predicessor, the J4215, for 3 or 4 years.

I love this 4-in-one.
Easy to instal, use, quality b&w prints (which is what I needed for); compact.
Love it and would highly recommend to anyone who does not need to scan from a book or non-lose page format.

Seemed like a good idea at the time…
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
After having good experiences with HP products in the past and considering the initial inexpensive cost of this all-in-one printer, I went ahead and made the purchase.
When the product arrived it was fairly easy to set up to my Dell laptop and it was compatible with VISTA. Both were concerns after reading some of the reviews, but didn’t seem to be a problem.
After having this product for a year, following are the pros/cons I have discovered:
First issue was that the toner is only good for about 200 pages, at that. This meant that I was purchasing 2-3 catridges a week. You also have to align the printer every time you change the cartridge, which in my opinion, is a complete waste of toner. Tried looking on the internet to find a way to turn this off, but to no avail. Customer service was also no help – from what I could understand.
Next problem is that sometimes it pulls several pages through at one time causing the printed page to be split up among several pages. You either have to reprint (more wasted toner) or in the case of a fax, either have them re-fax the document or get out the scissors and tape. Real professional!
Someone else mentioned that the quality of the phone and other components seemed pretty cheap. It is made of light plastic, thus it is lightweight. So, that could either be deemed a positive or a negative depending on how you plan on using it and where the unit will be located. For instance, it would fit quite nicely and it wouldn’t be too heavy for a TV tray.
For scanning, it seems to do just fine. I don’t have any complaints in that regards. Unfortunately, that’s not why I purchased it.
Bottom line…if you want an inexpensive printer and you don’t do a lot of printing, Christmas cards and labels for the holidays or an occassional school project, then this would be fine. But it’s not cost effective when it comes to a small business or home office set-up.

Decent printer but the scanner is terrible
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I bought this when my other HP printer started not working at times and I could buy this one cheaper than the ink for the old printer. That is insane.
This is a decent printer for the price but the scanner quality is poor. I have not used the fax feature yet so I can not comment about it. It is user friendly but they could have added a back-lit LED display for more ease of use. The whole unit is amazingly compact with good software that comes with it.

Terrible software problems
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
This printer worked well for the first 8 months, except for getting frequent error messages when trying to print – it said it was not connected even though it was clearly installed properly. That meant stopping in the middle of a project and reinstalling it over and over. HP sent out updates twice, which were supposed to correct this.
Then suddenly one day it wasn’t able to save scanned documents in PDF or any other useful program. After 11 phone calls to tech support staff (yes, 11!) with varying degrees of competency and English ability, and approximately 9 hours of my time wasted, they finally and reluctantly connected me to someone at the management level. This person agreed that it was pointless to continue troubleshooting the issue, but that it couldn’t be HP’s fault, so it had to be my computer causing the problem! Note: the most experienced tech person I talked to had already told me it was definitely HP software, not my computer.
HP asked me to download the software onto another computer to see if it worked better. The result: now that computer is unusable, as the download caused it to crash. Even after uninstalling all HP programs it still crashes repeatedly. Their response? I must have two bad computers.
To their credit, they are replacing it with a different, albeit refurbished, model “for all my trouble,” not because they think it will make a difference. My advice: if you ever buy anything from HP, get the extended warranty!

HP J3680 All In One Printer
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I purchased this all in one to replace an older Lexmark printer and I’m very happy with my purchase. I did “a lot” of research and read a lot of reviews. They are so helpful. I feel I got an excellent buy through Amazon. The HP all in one is much smaller than the Lexmark, quieter and very cost efficient when it comes to replacement cartridges. The print quality is excellent. I had a little difficulty in the set up because of the DSL modem, use of a filter, etc. but I am very satisfied with my HP all in one.

Nice Little Unit
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Bought The HP J3680 Officejet All-In-One to use as a stand alone color/black and white copier. I have been very satisfied with the quality of the copies it has produced. I am using it at home so my demand is not as great as a small office would be. I found the use of the fax ability to be very disappointing. I had hoped to use this function in a stand alone capacity also but found it would not function unless it was integrated with my computer. However, if you are looking for a nice inexpensive copier for home use, this unit will do the job.

Worked for a month but after I came upstairs to use it again it wont turn on. No clue what is wrong with the unit. I tried mutiple power ports, no go. I’m very disappointed as the reviews on here led me to believe this was an okay printer. It worked fine under ubuntu too. Anyways, I called amazon and they’re sending a replacement I hope the replacement lasts more than 2weeks.

Rating:3 out of 5 stars
The software shipped with the printer is disfunctional. I was about to give up on it but the software checked for and downloaded an upgrade which solved the USB erratic connection problem.
The software is the weakness of the product. I reconginize that it is a complicated device with a lot of features. With the upgraded software I can live with it.
I got it at a good price so I feel good about the purchase.

This 3 in one device is just what I was looking for. The design is great and the functions/buttons are right where you need them no hassle to set up and start faxing, printing or scanning. The printer carries standard HP cartridges that you can get anywhere, uses regular paper and it prints well. I did not get a USB cord to attach to my laptop to print but I had a spare from my old printer. The telephone cord is a bit short and that too can be replaced. A good buy!

Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Please read to the end for resolution. The fax itself is just what I wanted. What I didn’t want was to stop set-up to drive to Walmart at dark thirty to gat a USB cord that was supposed to be with my package to complete set-up. So I didn’t spend $61.80 total. I spent another $21.65. When I logged into Amazon for their packaging review (I bought machine from Amazon) they indicated I had no recent orders. Therefore, I couldn’t quickly ask for help. I found an Amazon customer service number online and called. Rep. Belinda, in just over a minute, apologized and promised to refund my credit card. I looked the next morning and it has been credited plus 35 cents (rounded off by rep) This was amazing service for a disgruntled, crabby customer. Good job and kudos to Amazon. And I’m back to doing my stuff with my new fax/copier/scanner/printer.

HP J3680 Officejet All-in-One Printer
I have had HP printers for years and been very happy. However, this one just isn’t compatible with my Dell. Would print, but scanning was not to be. All I got was error messages. HOURS of working with support (support???) yielded nothing. Printer wiped out my restore points too. Returned it for refund. My employer purchased a HP C5540 all in one for me at work. Piece of junk too. Have to constantly reinstall software for it to scan. HP is great for printers, but all in ones – bad as far as I am concerned.

This officejet all-in-one printer works perfectly –so far– quickly and it’s really convenient to have all in one, and for a very reasonable price.
I have not used it as a fax machine, but I am sure that if one day I need to do so, it will work as well as it does for the other functions.

Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I like the idea of having everything all-in-one. However, I have recently been having difficulty with my printer cartridges, on and off. Sometimes they recognize them and sometimes they don’t.
The real problem is if the printer is out of ink or having a cartridge error you can’t use any of the other features. You don’t need ink to scan but that function will not work when there is an error. The troubleshooting for it is also quite useless.
