Professional printers which offer complete functionality are sometimes hard to find, or other times very expensive. But I have a good suggestion for an all-in-one that's quite affordable, excellent in quality, and also very functional - the HP Officejet 6500 All-in-One Printer. To know more about this model, let's continue with this review.
Design
It's a very simple printer with a combination of white and dark gray colors. The buttons are numerous, but this is what makes the functions of the printer easier to use since every function has an assigned button for it. There are two paper outlets, one on the top and one on the side of the device. Printing comes out at the side and copying produces output on the top. The device is quite compact and easy to set up on any tabletop or shelf. It has a weight of 17.75 pounds and the dimensions of 18.7'' x 16.1'' x 10.2''.
The LCD display is only a two-line text display screen which shows essential information for you to easily manipulate the device. It's pretty simple and easy to use as compared to many other newer models.
Printing and Other Functions
The printer of this model is a fast one, with an average of 32 pages per minute for black-ink documents and 31 pages per minute for colored documents. One thing lacking with this model is the duplex printing function which is quite important for business or professional printers, especially for printing marketing media like brochures and flyers. Nonetheless, it still prints flawlessly.
The device is also a good photo printer. It can print borderless up to 8.3'' x 23.4'' and it also allows printing without the use of a PC by simply inserting memory cards to the appropriate slots. Memory cards compatible for this model come in various types which makes it easier to use different storage media devices.
The scanner has both a flatbed and an ADF input for better scanning quality. The ADF can scan documents up to legal size (8.5'' x 14'') while the flatbed can scan up to letter size papers (8.5'' x 11''). Optically scanned, the resolution produces 2,400 dpi images, while enhanced scanning produces 19,200 dpi images.
The model also has a fax machine which is essential in any business. The fax machine produces output as fast as three seconds per page and can accept up to 100 pages in one transaction. The fax machine is also able to save up to 100 speed dials. The copier can reproduce documents as quickly as the printer and can produce 100 copies at one time. You can also reduce or enlarge your documents from 25% to 400% scale sizes. The device is an excellent and useful machine that can really create remarkable output.
Other Features
Although it has no wireless capability, it can be attached to a network through an Ethernet line, and shared by multiple computers. The device is also Energy Star qualified which means that you're helping Mother Nature by getting this device instead of another non-Energy Star qualified model.
Conclusion
If you want a good all-in-one device which can produce good printing for your business as well as copying, scanning, and faxing, the HP Officejet 6500 All-in-One Printer is one model I would recommend to you. But only get it if you don't need mass back-to-back printing or wireless connectivity. However, it may have issues regarding ink use and installation problems. I don't know about this because I haven't experienced problems like these, but you may have issues with the noise it produces when printing. Other than that, I am completely happy with it and I am confident to recommend this model to other printer-seekers out there.

HP wireless 6500 worked fine for 2 months as a wireless printer. Was having problems and was directed to download new drivers. After install it will only work with a USB cable. I don’t advise buying this printer. Printed only a few copies in color and already they are out of ink. Very noisy and can’t find anywhere how to remove the USB requirement and reload my software.
I love affordable printers says:
