Our Verdict
The HP OfficeJet Pro 8025e is decent for home use. It has a wide variety of connectivity options, so it's easy for everyone in the household to access. Printed documents look very sharp, and photos look very detailed, albeit grainy. Its ink cartridges don't last very long, but thankfully, they're relatively cheap, so your maintenance cost won't rise too quickly if you print a lot. The scanner produces good-quality scans, making it suitable for digitizing photos.

The HP OfficeJet Pro 8025e is alright for small offices. It produces high-quality documents; however, it's slow, as it only prints 10 black or six color pages per minute.

The HP OfficeJet Pro 8025e is a disappointing choice if you want a printer that's always ready to use after long idle periods. Like other inkjet printers, it can clog if you don't use it often. Its ink capacity is fairly limited, so you may need to empty a cartridge to clear severe clogs. The printheads aren't user-replaceable, which gives you little recourse if regular maintenance can't fix a clog. Page yields are only decent, so you'll likely need to change cartridges frequently if you print a lot. That said, the printer offers a wide range of connectivity options, making it easy to print from almost any device.
- Low black page yield.
- Slow to print black and color documents.
Can clog if it's left unused.
Printheads aren't user-replaceable.
The HP 8025e is good for photo printing. Its cost-per-print is very low for photos, so you don't have to worry about your maintenance cost rising too quickly if you print a lot. It produces very fine details in photos, but due to its limited color range, the pictures look slightly muted. Photos also look very grainy.

- Feels well-built.
- Supports borderless printing and various paper sizes up to 8.5" x 11".

The HP OfficeJet Pro 8025e offers satisfactory page yields. You can print about 250 black-and-white pages and a similar number of color pages before you need to replace the cartridges. High-yield 910 XL cartridges are available and can print roughly twice as many pages.

The Epson WorkForce Pro WF-4830 is better than the HP OfficeJet Pro 8025e for most uses. The Epson has better black page yields and a lower cost-per-print for black-only documents. It also has a better scanner that produces higher-quality scans, processes sheets faster, and can perform duplex scanning. The HP produces better quality black and color documents but doesn't print as quickly as the Epson.
The HP OfficeJet Pro 9015e is better than the HP OfficeJet Pro 8025e. The 9015e has a much higher page yield and a lower cost-per-print. It also prints faster and can process double-sided scans. On the other hand, the 8025e produces higher quality black and color documents, and its scanner picks up finer details.
The HP OfficeJet Pro 8025e and the Epson WorkForce Pro WF-3820 are very similar overall. The HP produces higher quality documents and scans, but it doesn't print as quickly as the Epson, and it costs slightly more to maintain because its black ink cartridge runs out faster. For photo printing, the Epson has a wider color range and produces finer details, but the HP is more color-accurate.
The Brother MFC-J995DW is better than the HP OfficeJet Pro 8025e for most uses. The Brother yields significantly more pages at a lower cost-per-print, prints faster, and produces more detailed photos. However, the HP printer produces higher-quality documents, and its input tray can hold more paper.
