If HP doesn't support your printer in Win 7 now, it's possible they will produce 
more drivers as the OS matures. In the meantime, you can probably find a driver that 
will work that was maybe written for another series of printers. Here is a link to 
a driver that 79% have voted as being compatible with Win 7:
http://www.bioticaindia.com/deskjet-6800.html

If it doesn't work just google "hp 6800 driver win7"

Make sure you create a restore point before trying unapproved drivers. I would restore 
back to current status each time before trying more than one (if necessary), to ensure 
no extra unwanted files are left behind.

While using unapproved drivers is not generally recommended, sometimes it's the only 
way to extend the life of a peripheral. I have done it a number of times without 
regret.
