HP Officejet Pro 8500 Premier Wireless All-in-One Printer Review
Over All Rating: 
Price: $442.85 (currently priced/price may change) Return Policy: The HP Officejet Pro 8500 Premier Wireless All-in-One Printer comes with a 30-day return policy from original date of purchase. The product also comes with one-year limited hardware warranty plus 24/7 Web support and business hour phone support within warranty period. Brand: Hewlett Packard Model #: CB025A#B1H Recommended Merchant: www.amazon.com About The Product: According to Hewlett Packard, the HP Officejet Pro 8500 Premier Wireless All-in-One Printer is identical to the Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless, except that this one comes with an extra set of color cartridges, 50 sheets of glossy brochure paper, and an added paper feed tray that increases input capacity to 500 sheets. So it's a valuable home or small office machine that has multitasking functions that includes printing, copying, scanning and faxing documents from a computer or directly from the printer itself! You need not stand by to attend to manual feeding for copy, print and scan jobs since this model features a 50-page automatic document feeder and can do all three on either just front page or back-to-back outputs. Copy quality is almost unidentifiable from the original and a lot of printing options are available depending on your output needs. Ink replacements are a lot cheaper than laser versions so you get a cost-intelligent multi-tasker in the HP Officejet Premier 8500 Wireless All-in-One! |

Customer Feedback-
"I use this printer in a home office environment and it does a very nice job. Printouts are very crisp with good quality. Colors are vibrant and sharp. Copies are fast and of very good quality and faxes are very easy to send and receive. While this printer is a bit more than other available "all in ones", I felt that the cost per print with the new, higher yielding cartridges will over time provide a much better cost of ownership." - Actual User Review - Amazon.com "Absolutely superb in every respect! It prints professionally, alignment perfect, scans, copies and faxes easily. Set-up is very simple and automatic - even with my old XP system." - Actual User Review - Amazon.com "The neatest thing about it is that you can set up a shared folder on your home network, and scan .pdf's directly to it. Or, if you'd like, scan something in, and email it to yourself or whoever you'd like as a .pdf directly from the printer. Very Slick. I can also browse my printers media card reader from my LG BD390 Bluray player on the HDTV..." - Actual User Review - Newegg.com "I am using this printer with Macs and really like it. It has the ink capacity to make a lot of prints as well some a great list of features. It seems well made for a business environment." - Actual User Review - 1.hp.com |
