SHARE RESOURCES and stay connected

Stay connected and make your work space more efficient by sharing resources—more users can access the same device with wireless networking and built-in Ethernet.

With its flexible connectivity via the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed port and wireless 802.11n networking (available with the 6500A Plus), the HP Officejet 6500A e-All-in-One series is designed with businesses in mind.

The e-All-in-One offers affordable networking to meet the needs of your small business:

Enables convenient sharing—Designed to handle up to five network users.

Provides simple installation—The e-All-in-One’s software includes step-by-step instructions. No specialized networking skills are required.

Supports mixed operating system environments—Personal computers and Macintosh computers can be on the same network.

Saves space in the office—There’s no need for each user to give up desk space for an e-All-in-One.

Wireless (Wi-Fi) networking

The HP Officejet 6500A Plus e-All-in-One 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 of 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 fax 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.12
