I have purchased to HP Office jet pro 8000 printers in the past year. My use includes letters and documents as well as 50 per cent printing of photos includeded in the documents as well. We also print high quality prints using photo grade papers and find them very good for an ink jet printer. the bottom line using this printer reduces the expense of ink compared to photo smart and other ink jet printers I have owned in the past.
HP ink for HP printers is the best way to go to ensure excellent quality and reliability. These HP ink cartridges perform great in my HP Officejet 6500A multi-function printer.
