My USA-purchased Photosmart PSC 2610v is printing and scanning well under 
Linux. I think this would be considered the same model.

The 2610v can be connected either of two ways: ethernet or USB, but not both 
at the same time. It has an embedded Jet Direct device for direct network 
printing. It also has an embedded web server which can be accessed for some 
functions.

Connected through ethernet, printing and scanning work using hpoj. If you want 
to set the printer up for ethernet connectivity, choose a static LAN IP 
address for the printer though its panel, then configure the printer as a Jet 
Direct device with 'ptal-init setup' and CUPS.  When setting up a CUPS print 
queue, if you don't see a list entry for the 2600 series, try choosing one 
for the PSC 2500.

hplip (currently in development by the hpinkjet group) doesn't yet support 
scanning over ethernet.

Connected through USB, eithor hpoj or hplip should work. I haven't yet tried 
to use the 2610 connected through USB, though.
