By now, we’re all probably familiar with Hewlett-Packard’s ePrint remote printing application: during the printer installation, the ePrint-capable printer is assigned an e-mail address; then you register your printer at HP’s ePrint Center and assign printing defaults and security settings; finally, you send an e-mail with an attachment to that e-mail address and the ePrint-capable printer will automatically print [...]

New Hands-On Test Report – A Strong Performance from the Panasonic KX-MB1520
We’ve just completed Hands-On Testing of Panasonic’s KX-MB1500 series, two black-and-white laser All-in-Ones.

Hands-On Review – HP TopShot LaserJet Pro M275
One of the most unusual All-in-Ones to come down the pipeline recently is without a doubt Hewlett-Packard’s TopShot LaserJet Pro M275 ($399.99), which can produce 3D images of scanned objects. We recently took a hands-on look at this intriguing new capability. What makes this color LaserJet unique is its scanning technology. Instead of a typical contact image sensor (CIS) [...]
Review: HP Officejet Pro 8000 Enterprise Printer
Historically, Hewlett-Packard’s Officejet Pro color ink-jet family has been primarily geared for small and mid-size business use. However, as of today, an intriguing new entry, HP’s Officejet Pro 8000 Enterprise Printer ($199) adds enterprise-level features and management capabilities that promise to take low-cost color ink-jet imaging into the enterprise.

With HP’s ePrint and iPrint, who needs Apple’s AirPrint?
The quick answer is – anybody who does NOT own a network-ready HP printer, MFP or All-in-One that was purchased in the B2B or retail channel. Ho-hum . . . However, please stay with me here, since the numbers we are about to present are significant either way. Considering that HP has the leading market [...]
Deflated by AirPrint
I pre-ordered an Apple iPad and have been a happy camper ever since. I knew going in about the lack of printing and Flash support, but purchased one anyway. In fact, I never even thought about printing from the iPad until Apple started pumping us up about iOS 4.2 and AirPrint. Since then, I have [...]
Epson’s B-510DN Business Color Ink-Jet Printer Gives Color Lasers A Run For Their Money
Wirth Consulting has just completed a Hands-On Test Report on what we feel is a really important digital imaging device, the $599 Epson B-510DN Business Color Ink Jet Printer.

by Terry Wirth on December 10, 2010 in Apple, News, Opinions, Reviews
