• Offers easy print management—The HP Embedded Web Server lets you manage the e-All-in-One from any
computer on the network. HP Web Jetadmin provides a single support tool for managing groups of
e-All-in-Ones and other devices.
Wireless (Wi-Fi) networking
The HP Officejet Pro 8500A e-All-in-One series includes
built-in wireless networking, so you can connect the
e-All-in-One directly to a Wi-Fi network without using an
external print server. Wireless networking allows work
teams with a wireless router and a notebook or desktop
computer with a wireless card or adapter to print via a
wireless connection—there’s no need for a cable between
the computer and the e-All-in-One. And data travels quickly,
at speeds up to 300 Mbps across distances of up to 100
feet (30.5 meters).

The benefits that are unique to built-in
wireless networking include:
• Increases mobility—Place the e-All-in-One anywhere in
your wireless network environment.
• Reduces cable clutter—Keep your office environment tidy and organized with fewer cables.
• Simplifies relocation—Fewer cables make it easier to move equipment from one location to another. There’s
no need to purchase expensive networking cables or invest time installing networking wires.
Wired (Fast Ethernet) networking
Designed to be easy to share, the e-All-in-One offers embedded wired networking capabilities that allow you to
connect the e-All-in-One directly to a 10/100Base-T Fast Ethernet network. With the e-All-in-One turned on,
simply connect an Ethernet cable from the device’s RJ-45 port to the network hub, switch, or router, and then run
the installation software on each of the computers on the network. On-screen instructions provide easy step-by-
step installation.
No IT? No problem
HP offers tools for the small business owner who doesn’t have a dedicated IT department:
• Order supplies—A single screen shows your e-All-in-One’s ink status and provides direct access to online
shopping from preferred resellers or HP SureSupply.
