As well as the new professional multifunction OfficeJet Pro 1150C color printer-copier-scanner, which costs about $1,000 (CI No 3,117), Hewlett-Packard Co has added a mass market device, the OfficeJet 500 printer- facsimile machine-copier-scanner, which can print black text at speeds up to four pages a minute and color documents at a rate of a page a minute. It can store 65 pages of facsimile messages in memory and includes 8-bit scanning capabilities at 600 dots per inch. Aimed at the small office-home office market, it will be out in May at around $500. HP will continue to sell its OfficeJet 300, cutting the price to $400.
