It uses up to 50 percent less energy compared to other laser printers and has a double – sided printing that cuts paper usage by half. It produces quality prints and has easy scanning features. One great thing about HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 e-All-in-One is its low running costs with combined quality printing making it a perfect choice for businesses and home office use. With less than a month in the market this all – in – one printer from HP has earned the editor’s choice.

Being a green printer it helps in saving energy, money and environment which HP is determined to do in fulfilling their environmental responsibility when it comes to the production of their products.

One of the drawbacks of this HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 is its price which comes very expensive at $299.
