HP Officejet J6480 All-in-One

We got our hands on HP Officejet J6480 All-in-One printer during an after Thanksgiving sale. As a former Officejet 5700 series user, a number of aesthetic upgrades became quite evident. First and foremost HP has bundled many user friendly features into a slightly smaller and affordable daily office printer. With a price tag of under $200, this printer appeals to home offices, and small businesses looking for an economically priced performer.

Secondly, the new angled 50 sheet auto-document feeder allows for ease of scanning with fewer paper jams. Additionally the built in 802.11g wireless feature can connect to any wireless network for hassle free printing.

Furthermore the new features include double sided printing, auto-document feeder, Optical Character Recognition scanner; painless 802.11g wireless setup; excellent quality text, graphic, and photo prints. The energy saving features draws less energy when operating in stand by mode and is more green friendly than previous HP models.

While there are many enticing features, there are also some drawbacks. It would be nice if HP integrated a larger full color menu screen. The current blue screen is much brighter than the previous drab green screens, however the addition of a touchscreen would have truly rounded this product out.

Overall the HP Officejet J6480 is a solid everyday that is ideal for the small or home based business. The economical price tag and various functions makes this a recommended choice for any office manager or business owner.
