We bought this printer after seeing some nice print outs on shiny paper and hearing the estimate of a huge number of prints per printer cartridges. Once we got it home and started using it we found the quality of graphics and photos on documents we have previously printed on our HP2410 photosmart were far from the same level of quality (washed out look some colors way off, either gray cast or a yellow cast). Also colored text with shadowing won’t print without the shadowing covering part to the text. Following these disappointments. I learned a coworker has a similar HP that uses the same cartridges and has had problems with them. This morning I accidently got some water on a printed page and learned the black ink smears — I thought it was smeariness ink. This printer is not worth 1/2 the price!
Well, HP your going to get this one back ASAP and even though I have been an HP fan until now – I doubt I will be buying HP until you get your act back together. Cannon here I come!

After spending way too may hours trying to get this to work, it has been returned. I’m the one that my friends come to with computer and electronic questions. I’m geeky and set up all of my electronic equipment usually with no problem. Not the case here. Poor documentation and who the hell wants to spend time in cyberspace hell talking to outsourced tech in India. HP, get your act together and especially your quality control. Avoid, avoid and avoid this one.

I bought this printer HP 8500 Wireless for my small business. I have 4 computers on the network and only wanted to buy ink for one printer. First i will say I love the concept of 2200 pages of black and white paper for less than $40.00. BUT…I would give it a 0 stars if I could.
The network just does not work. the software that came with this hardware is just horrible. You just can’t install the drives because you lose the features that this printer has. Once you install the printer wireless or with an either cable it disables the network for the computer you are installing the software on.
I have owned many printers over the last 15 years or so and I have never seen one as bad as this one. I installed the software on 2 diffrent machines thinking it might be the computer but it’s NOT the computers at all.
After this expirence I will never purchase another HP printer again. And this is coming from someone who has purchases at least 4 HP printers in my lifetime. I think HP needs to test thier equipment and software before it ships out.

Tried HP products a few years ago,POOR quality of product/workmanship/failure to give good results caused me to change to EPSON(not a promo for them,just a better than results…yours may be different)Times passed,and I saw the flashy box and thought it may be improved….
Silly thought!Machine(s)were AGAIN in the same factory in China it seems.Had to be given the same terrible Quality and poor performance issues that HP has shown in the past.I fortunately had a dealer who was above average(no thanks to HP).Dropped wireless connections(in a room next door)that drove me up the wall was the major annoyance(part that kept coming off a close second) of the whole sad episode.Avoid at all costs…
