    Summary: Can an inkjet really handle small office printing duties? HP has no doubt it can, and we agree

    Summary: The Officejet Pro 8500A Plus completes our HP Officejet trinity, following in the footsteps of the 7500A Wide Format and 6500A Plus. It brings business chic looks and savvy AIO performance to the home and small office.

    Conclusion: HP delivers another rock solid business AIO in the Officejet Pro 8500A Plus. It offers a quick printing pace and quality, very decent scanning and copying, as well as added functionality in the form of ePrint and Air Print. Compared to the 6500A Plus,...

    Pro : Multiple connectivity options, handy colour touch-enabled display, ADF, ePrint as well as AirPrint and auto duplex

    Conclusion: HP's Web-enabled applications platform doesn't offer much in the way of extra value for business users at the moment, but as a medium-volume document printer the HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus is a good choice nonetheless. This inkjet multifunction...

    Pro : Fast draft printing, high quality Normal mode, good paper tray size and feeding options

    Cons : Few ePrint apps for businesses
