byquickfords Mar 17, 2006
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Wireless freedom, separate bw cartridge from color cartridge
Cons photo quality (could be my bad setting), customer service
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this first because my old HP 722 was not USB compatable. I bought a new laptop (Toshibe F25-AV205- read my review) and my printer would not work. I figured since I had a laptop and could work anywhere in the house, why tie myself to a printer by a stupid cord. I searched for a wireless... Read full review »

Cons Par quality of photos, cumbersome set up of wireless, permanent paper tray

I used to have... Read full review »

Made to the usual HP high quality standards

I need to start with the product ID, since there are a number of similar HP printers.


 If you go to an online store like Amazon, it will be described as HP Officejet Pro 8500A Wireless e-All-in-One. At Costco it is a known as the... Read full review »
