HP J4585 Printer Review

The days when home and small office users had to buy separate devices for printing, scanning, faxing, and copying are over with the HP OfficeJet J4585 All-in-One inkjet. It can handle each of these tasks, all within a fairly compact frame that won't eat up too much space. The HP J4585 printer ink system provides sharp resolutions for excellent text and photo quality, and print speeds are up to 28 pages per minute in monochrome and 22 pages per minute for color.

The control panel of the J4585 has a very simple design that some might find a bit limited, especially with its single-line LCD screen that provides very little information to the user. One-touch buttons are included for things like copying, however, making it fairly intuitive to use, and it is a worthwhile compromise for the unit's low price.

The J4585 provides a number of cost-saving features that are also eco-friendly. It uses only 1 watt of energy while it is in off mode, reducing electric bills. Users can also save a lot of paper by storing their faxes in memory and sending them to the computer for viewing, rather than printing them out. The HP J4585 ink cartridges have bodies that are made from 75% recycled plastic as well.

Prices for the OEM versions of OfficeJet J4585 ink cartridges are not bad for the capacity they provide, and a high-capacity version of the black OfficeJet J4585 ink supply will provide a lower cost per page. The option for remanufactured HP J4585 printer ink will keep the costs even lower, however, saving users money.

Combining the best features of a photo inkjet printer and a multifunction office machine, the HP J4585 is a solid machine with a great feature set. Its affordable price and reasonable running costs make it worth the few compromises in features.
