Reviews of the HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless

    CNET Review

    September 8, 2009

    The Good: Autoduplexer; automatic document feeder; easy to use 3.4-inch LCD touch screen; painless 802.11b/g wireless setup; industry-leading print speeds; excellent quality prints.

    The Bad: Lacks autodial fax buttons, Bluetooth, and a dual paper input tray.

    The Bottom Line: The HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless makes a convincing inkjet argument for offices with a high volume of prints. With a function touch screen, multiple networking options, and an astoundingly fast print speed, it makes perfect sense to give this workhorse an Editors' Choice award.

    Review Summary: Most of the claims made for the OfficeJet Pro 8500 stand up. It costs about the same as a colour laser, is surprisingly much cheaper to run, prints quickly - as long as you don't duplex - and produces good plain paper print. To cap it, it consumes ...
