HP unveils Officejet Pro 8500 All-in-One series in India
HP India has introduced an affordable and efficient HP Officejet Pro 8500 All-in-One series printer. The new printer is based on the exclusive HP Scalable Printing Technology and delivers enhanced performance and reliability as well as premium print permanence with new HP Officejet pigment inks.
These printers cater to small and micro-business consumers as they deliver excellent results while being energy-efficient. The devices are also economically priced and hence produce the best color results.
The HP Officejet Pro 8500 All-in-One series is HP's top-of-the-line inkjet All-in-One series and includes fast print speeds, embedded wired and wireless networking options and device management software. It is the base model and includes automatic two-sided printing, a two-line LCD control panel, a 35-page automatic document feeder (ADF) and embedded wired networking.

There is a 50% decrease in the energy consumed and the cost per page when compared to other standard printers. This is achieved as the printers utilize HP Officejet inks. Durable color documents can be printed where the color is water-resistant and can dry up quickly due to the Officejet pigment inks. This technology is specially designed for papers with ColorLok technology and business news.
Up to 35 and 34 pages per minute in black and color respectively can be printed with the Pro 8500.
