The fantastically well-resourced Hewlett Packard press archive is rammed with high-res photos of its products. The highlight is a fax machine that looks like a rabbit on the telephone.

There is no “lifestyle” section, though. The closest the photographer got to being allowed to take shots of a lady is taking shots of some colour print-outs of a lady as they come out of a printer. Poor photographer.

ink-cartridges-in-printer

This one is called “Ink cartridges in printer”.

hp-laserjet-on-desk

This one is “HP Photosmart D7560 on desk next to monitor and phone”. You can really see what the artist was trying to do.

hp-laserjet-9040mfp

This is “HP LaserJet 9040MFP with stacker/stapler next to staircase”. They should’ve also said it’s standing on some carpet, to show it’s equally at home resting on a wooden or synthetic base.

hp-fax-640

“HP Fax 640, with close-up of control panel with paper output, top” – looks like a rabbit on the telephone. He’s phoning ASDA to see if that BOGOF on 1kg packs of carrots is still going, and, if so, how many bags you’re allowed to have at once.

hp-39gs-graphing-calcularor

We’ll end with “HP 39gs Graphing Calculator on lab table”.
