4.0 out of 5 stars Can be made wireless through wifi router connection, April 23, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: HP Officejet 6500 All-in-One Printer (Office Product)
Don't bother using the disks that came with the printer. Better to go online at the hp site and download the driver software to this model.

I went to the HP site (per one reviewer's suggestion) and installed the smallest "for IT professionals only" version (I'm still using XP OS) and found I could not use the scan function with that slimmed-down driver. As some users have noted, the scan function breaks - a bug in the software. (I discovered the web scan feature - just enter the printer's IP address into the browser url bar. Many thanks to the helpful customer who commented on my review.)

Use the custom install option (uncheck the Photosmart, HP Purchasing junkware). To disable the incessant looping Update nag message popup after reboot, I deleted the HP Update application (via Add/Remove utility) after installing the driver. I agree HP software is rather crappy and bloated but the HP printers have been more reliable than other brands I've used. I bought the...Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Say it ain't so!, June 9, 2009
This review is from: HP Officejet 6500 All-in-One Printer (Office Product)
Overall print quality is excellent. Price is good also.

Some points of interest:

1. When setting up the network printer I ran into a few snags and no two installs followed the same dialogue. It took 2-3 hours to set up 4 computers on our network.

2. The print cartridge empty light came on with 25-100 pages remaining. I typically use Fast Draft as a default and keep printing until ink ran out.

3. Text is regularly cut off from the last 1/2 line or so at the bottom of a page -- seems to be a margin problem that floats around. Adjusting the footer and body margins sometimes, not always, corrects the problem. Print Preview always looks fine. I'm using Word 2007 - same problem occurs in previous versions of Word. Work around is to create a PDF and print the PDF -- no joke! Several websites indicate that this is a problem with no real fix/patch available.

4. The printer is extremely noisy and has a habit of cleaning itself...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great all around home printer, May 4, 2009
This review is from: HP Officejet 6500 All-in-One Printer (Office Product)
I've had this printer for about a month now, and have printed and scanned several documents (have not tested the fax as I do not have a home landline).

Overall, I am pleased with the printer. The print quality, and speed are very good and the scanning couldn't be easier. The only small complaints I have about it are 1 - it's a bit noisy when it prints (and subsequently aligns the print after after each printing). In fact, when my wife sent something to the printer across the network from another room, my 2 year old was near the printer and it scared the dickens out of him!

The other drawback was (and I'll readily admit I'm no IT expert) I was unable to get the printer to install without using the HP CD that installs all kinds of extra crap I did not want on my machine.

Anyway, despite some things I do not like, I am very happy with this printer.
