HP design full circle

The HP ScanJet N8420 document scanner (below right) reminded me of the original DeskJet 500 (below left).

It is always nice to see the development of a design language over time, when a new thing echoes and builds upon conversations started from a while back.

As a bonus, Google turned up this little beauty – the DeskJet 310.
