HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Inkjet MFP

Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer Review, by Melissa Riofrio, PC World May 15, 2009

HP's OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One is a color inkjet multifunction printer built to take anything that a small office can throw at it. Granted, it's expensive, but if you do high-volume printing, consider buying it for the low consumables costs if nothing else.

This MFP's generous paper-handling features include a 250-sheet input tray, a 150-sheet output tray, and a 50-sheet automatic document feeder. Duplexing is automatic. An optional second 250-sheet input tray (for plain paper only) costs $80. Ethernet, USB, and Wi-Fi connectivity are standard. Media slots cover CF; MMC/SD; xD; and MS/Duo, and you also get a USB/PictBridge port. Most of the control panel is displayed on the unit's 3.45-inch, color touchscreen LCD, which makes navigating the many settings fast and easy.

I advise you to take HP's speed claims with a grain of salt: The unit's 35-page-per-minute text speed and 34-ppm graphics speed are possible only in draft mode. In our tests conducted at the MFP's default settings, it printed text pages at 15.6 ppm and graphics pages at 4.5 ppm--far short of the company's promises, but plenty fast nonetheless. Text output looked black and fairly crisp. Photos and graphics appeared grainy but had natural colors on plain paper. On HP's own paper, the images tended to be slightly dark but very smooth
