Hewlett Packard DesignJet 500

Date of Review:  Sep 28, 2009
Review: The Hewlett Packard DesignJet 500 provides good quality prints and importantly good colour accuracy from plots. The Hewlett Packard brand means a plotter that will last if looked after appropriately and this one will. This A1 plotter is a great...

HP printer 24 inch

Date of Review:  Jul 8, 2006
The Bottom Line: Workhorse and a reliable machine.
Review: I'll try to be brief.

Had it for 2 years. Use the USB port, its fast and reliable. Program was easily installed on a few machines.

Mostly use it for CAD drawings. Great machine for CAD, that is, line work, grey scales. Settings a...

Large Format - Large Possibilities!

Date of Review:  Jun 28, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you're looking for a large-format printer, this is a fantastic unit to get you started!
Review: I've had an HP DesignJet 500 for a couple of years now (don't know why I didn't think to write a review... duh!) but let me say that this is just about the most versitile printer that I've worked with, as far as output options.

I use mine...

Say Hello to Workgroup-Class Wide Carriage Printing

Date of Review:  May 2, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you need a relatively inexpensive (enterprise-class plotters can cost in excess of $10,000) networkable plotter solution, look no further then the DesignJet 500ps by HP.
Review: In the realm of printing, there are a plethora of printer to meet normal desktop, workgroup, and network printing needs. These printers are fine for 8.5" x 11" /14 or smaller printing, but for large format wide carriage printing (24, 36, or 42...

Great printer

Date of Review:  Oct 27, 2004
Review: FOR WINDOWS USERS: Not the fastest to learn to use, but after that it is a great printer with high quality and photo finish. Plenty of documentation on CD and you can search Google for help on other issues.

The HP DesignJet 500 PS is now an expensive doorstop

Date of Review:  Oct 11, 2003
Review: After 2 years in which there were 0 (zero) updates to the Macintosh driver in spite of all kinds of bugs, in the last few months the driver wouldn't start at all. HP is recommending that one starts the machine in OS9, which is no longer possible on...

Great for Educational Posters

Date of Review:  Oct 28, 2003
The Bottom Line: This machine will pay for itself in a matter of a few years.
Review: The HP DesignJet 500 has proven to be the perfect large format printer for my office. Because it is relatively inexpensive and very easy to use, my labmates and me have been able to print a number of large posters that look very professional.
