We still relate that story as an example of both enlightened engineering and management.<br /><br />I was part of the development team for that product, having worked in the inkjet printing division for over 17 years, and I can say unreservedly it is the best development effort I have been involved with, embodying many of the best practices and lessons learned in the decades we've been in this business. <br /><br />You ask what's next? Well, the same division that developed the 8600 just released the Officejet Pro X last year - 42,000 nozzles of pagewide inkjet printing at over 40ppm - a quantum leap in performance and economy. Expect to see more devices using this new technology. Innovation of the kind that HP was known for in its heydey is still around.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15741808175635958058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7937749629445163655.post-70680752974511782922014-01-07T23:21:03.624-08:002014-01-07T23:21:03.624-08:00Hmmmm!! And my experience with the OfficeJet Pro 8...Hmmmm!! And my experience with the OfficeJet Pro 8600 has been nothing short of dismal!! I am this close it sending it back. Everything was great after I spent 4 hours and a call to HP Support to set it up. Then ... when it is idle for more than 4 hours it is not detectable on my WiFi network (while my old wired LaserJet is ) and I cannot print to it. I have called HP support twice and Apple support (I now use a Mac) once and got nothing but the standard finger-pointing!! No one even understands my problem. I have browsed many blogs on the net and they all curse the HP printer about this problem. No one has a solution. I used to swear by HP Printers and as an alum am very disheartened! So now am investigating Epson and Brother ....<br /><br />JagiCupertino Rotaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04910820301520006722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7937749629445163655.post-77609435128592475882013-12-23T04:51:33.485-08:002013-12-23T04:51:33.485-08:00Yay, you're back! Where have you been?
As an ...Yay, you're back! Where have you been?<br /><br />As an HP employee, I still love buying HP equipment, and love my TouchPad (yep I got one of the last lot in the UK) and my OfficePro printer which I bought via the employee purchase scheme for less than $30 last year and has done me proud through the start up of my ladies chorus, and printing pages and pages of music!
