• 8100 pro wireless installation with Linux computer

  I use the Pro 8100 with a Linux computer via the USB port. Is there some way to make use of the connection of wirelsss printer so that I can print from an Android Tablet? The manual lists only methods for Windows and Mac.

  Hey IanSinclair,

  I see that you have an Officejet Pro 8100 and you want to connect to a wireless network without the help of the USB-wireless software that is available on Windows and Mac.  I have a guide that shows how to connect a USB-wireless printer without a PC.  Please click here to access this information.

  Basically:

  • Turn it on off and then on the printer wireless
  • This will make the printer stream a configuration connection
  • Connect with the Android phone
  • Go to the SAP of the printer (192.168.223.1)
  • Select the network tab
  • Run the Wireless Setup Wizard in the built-in Web server to connect the printer to your wireless home network
  • After that, you can reconnect the Android device to your wireless network

  If you need help with this problem let me know!

• OfficeJet Pro 8100 does not print envelopes using Word 2010/Win 7

  Hello!  Need help getting my new printer to print envelopes using a 8100 Pro OfficeJet running Word 2010 on Windows 7.

  I'm used to using the feature for envelopes within the Word merge but in doing so, it tries to print on the right side of the page, but the trayonly allows you to center the envelopes (and when I tried sliding the envelope on the side, it prints twisted and cut the address as well (as if he doesn't realize that it is an envelope and not a sheet of paper.)  Just trying to print a single envelope, not a 'real' merge and mailing.  I also tried to change the value by default when the envelope prints in this menu, but nothing works.

  I tried to move to one side only, retype the address in the area directly (instead of highlighting and have it automatically copy in the box) and has removed and reinstalled the printer driver.

  Surely, there must be an easy fix for this.

  Thanks in advance!

  None of this has worked.  You need some sort of disconnect between the printer and the word where it won't just simply print the envelope in the Center.

  On the good side of things, I tried and am able to print envelopes using Publisher (after their model of envelope a little tweeking).  It is not as smooth as to be able to print directly from Word, but it works.  And will be definitely better than a handwritten envelope or label slapped on it.

  Thanks for your help, Spencer. :-)

• Officejet pro 8100 chart printing issue...

  Hello

  I bought a HP Officejet 8100 pro a few months ago, and I had trouble printing graphics on this subject. For some reason, no matter how I set the page to print, he ended up a very large part of the print image on a full page instead of the page I set out.

  The printer is connected to the network via CAT5 (NOT the USB) cable, and I use the Officejet BASIC drivers.  The graphics are print sources - some are directly from a Web page, some are printing through Corel Draw or Photopaint (X 3), and I have the same problem that I print out an old computer from Windows XP or a Windows 8 pc brand new.

  For example, in the past when I would print a graph of Corel Photopaint (something I scanned), regardless of the size of the image (physical size or DPI), all I had to do was set the page layout in the control panel of the printer to print as indicated or adjust α page and the printer would print it as it would look in the "Print preview" pane   But now it only prints part of the graph and print very large even if the size of the graphic is show less than 8 1/2 x 11.

  I tried to reduce the DPI of the image, but it does not help.  I usually scan at 300 dpi, but still reduced to 72 dpi file, does not help.  All what happens is the file prints the same very large size, but then is pixelated.  I also tried to reduce the much smaller physical size - say up to 3 'x 5', but it will not always print the full graphic.  It will only print on a 1/4 of the image and place it at the bottom right of the page.  And the printed area will measure 3 "x 5".

  There really scratching my head.  I looked in all the printers setting panels for something that could be an adjustment of the layout and change anything to even remotely suggest it would help, but can't find anything that would allow me to make the appropriate adjustments in order to print correctly.    I use HP printers for nearly 20 years and used all types (of Officejet, Deskjet, Photosmart, etc.), but it's the first one that left me speechless.  I like how frugal, is with his use of ink, but if I can't print my chart, his frugality is wasted on all pages of the curse.

  Print the note driver... I voluntarily has not installed FEATURES COMPLETE drivers because I know how intrusive, they can be and will install more things than I care to use or to have installed on my computer, so I prefer NOT to install these drivers, unless it's my only option to resolve the issue.

  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  Kind regards

• Printer HP Officejet Pro 8100 & custom paper sizes

  Found all useful instructions on creating new formats of paper custom in Windows 7. But am complete novice & need to buy a printer for a charity. Installs on this model because of good reviews, but more work will be 1 document of custom paper size. Need to know if the instructions are foolproof! (Before spending their money.)

  Hello invqn,

  After some detailed research, as well as installing the Pro 8100 (and other products) on a Windows 7 system, we determined the 8100 Pro does not support custom sizes: this is by design and intent.

  Note that one of our engineers proposes to use a different set of drivers (from an older device) as a possible workaround, but it is not proven and could be used to limit your overall functionality of the device.

  However, we have confirmed that a newer device which is currently, the HP Officejet Pro 8610 (8620 or 8630) e-all-in-one, supports the formats customized; Here is the multifunctional printers.

  By following the instructions in the link you sent, you can create new forms with custom formats and it will be displayed in the properties of the printer to get a job / select. It supports custom formats of 3,00 x 8.50 x 14.00 5.00 in. in.

  Our intention is only to provide information about what we know; you could take a moment and perhaps see if a representative Marketing HP might be able to give you more information, but that's what we have.

  We hope this helps...

• HP 8100 - can't activate the draft Mode.

  Hi, I bought a HP 8100 Pro printer a few weeks ago and I can't try to activate the "Draft" mode with it.

  When I try to activate the draft mode I and get an error of type message conflict.

  I am running Windows 7 and the HP is connected via a USB cable.

  Does anyone know what I need to do in order to print in the project?

  Thank you.

  Rick.

  

  Well, I have not installed the software yet, but after looking at your screenshots that I came up with an idea and the bear with me, after all, it's just an idea, it cannot be the solution.

  We will select plain paper, uncheck the Custom box, choose Project then select Custom and check that the paper is still paper, if it is not try it back. Then try to select the quick project in advanced settings.

  I notice that the parameter that you currently have is best, I wonder if it is maybe what is in conflict with the output quality.

  Let me know weather this fixes the problem or not, if not I'll install the software and get this figured out for you.

  Hello RobertoR,

  I tried what you suggested over the weekend something that I found on the HP website.  Nothing I tried worked, and since I use this for business to my wife, I needed a printer.  I had to buy a new one and was able to get the HP is a selling mood.  Bought a 8100 Pro Office to buy two and $109.99 ink cartrages and get a third free.  I got another printer since 2007, so I think I got my money.  I hate just to buy electronic equipment if it can be saved...  New England in me.

  Thank you very much for taking the time to answer me because you were the only one to do so.

  Sincerely,

• Small labels to print

  I have a new printer HP 8100 pro.  I'm trying to print labels Avery 5428 with pictures on it.  It is a Matt appearance and size of the small sheet of 20 labels per sheet 4 x 6 inches.  My operating system is Windows 7 and I use MS Word 2007 with the Avery template.

  My problem is the use of this new printer with labels.  I just put the labels into the tray and they come out at a funny angle rather than the portrait they set for.  (apparently they slide).   I put a sheet in the tray and tried to place a pile of leaves to keep full and I also put the sheet on top of plain paper since I was but maybe that's the problem.  I used 4 x 6 definition because I've never had to with my other printers but it still slips on the side.  I can't have a lot of information in the printer on this guide.  My printer is configured for eprint, but that shouldn't matter.

  Can you please explain the use of the smaller leaves like that, the printer should be set to the size of the leaves now?  It's different for me.

  Thank you.

  I went to the local office supply store where I bought the printer. I found the solution. I didn't know about the clips that hold the paper in the tray because I never had any problems with other printers. I tried to adjust their and it works for my labels. I don't see in any of the manuals. Would be nice if the company filled their instructions with more details. Thanks anyway.

• HP officejet pro 8100 not review or color printing.

  My 8100 Officejet Pro won't recognize color when you try to print from my pictures in Windows 8.1. I've done all the checks... ok of ink, grayscale printing is turned off, blackonly is disabled, deleted the program and resarted from scratch with disc supplied. The computer brand new from Chillblast and is very fast and up-to-date. All inks are new and full.

  It will print documents, pdf, etc, but I can't 'see' colors in my pictures, all the previews and print out black and white.

  The only thing is that I don't know what, if any, changes may be required in the part "Color management" Settings Advanced... any advice... Thank you.

  I just checked the download site pilot official HP and wireddrivers.com site and noticed that the number of driver for my printer Officejet Pro 8100 has changed!

  It was OJ8100_1321.exe... It is now OJ8100_1321 - 1.exe.

  I downloaded this driver and all is well in my world printer!

  I don't know if that was my question on this forum or my contacts a Microsoft technician, (which was useless and kept asking me to do things that I refused to do what I explained that I had already tried), but in any case, someone realized there is a software problem in the pilot and fixed.

  I will now post this as resolved to help someone else who search... Regards Kevin.

• OfficeJet Pro 8100: Utilities application does not start, Officejet Pro 8100

  The printer is working fine, except for the occasional streaks. The problem is when I try to access the cleaning utilities, etc..

I completely uninstalled the printer and reinstalled, no luck. Any thoughts?

• Can I print in black and white with an empty cartridge on a printer HP Officejet Pro 8100?

  Only the cyan cartridge is empty, all the other 3 cartridges are fine. I ordered the cartridge cyan online but I need to print important documents today. The power button blinks when I try to print.

  I do not understand, black and white must not use a color cartridge to print.

  Is there something so I can print before receiving the cyan cartridge?

  The printer Officejet Pro 8100 has the same print mechanism like its counterpart of all-in-One Officejet Pro 8600.  This printer has a print head mechanism that contains 4 individual cartridges: CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black).

  It will replace the cartridge if the unit provides a message from one of the colors being empty, until the unit will resume printing.  This is a retention mechanism to avoid the product from damage.  I hope this helps.

• More than a printer HP OfficeJet Pro 8100

  Hello

  I need to buy two printers wireless to use with an iPad.

  But the thing is: if I install TWO identical HP OfficeJet Pro 8100 under the same wifi network, how can I know that I want to print? In other words, my concern is that when I want to print a document using the iPad it will show two printers, but both with the name "HP OfficeJet Pro 8100". Having in mind that each printer is located away from each other in my house, I need to print under the right printer.

  Is it possible to change the name that appears on AirPrint so I can distinguish the two printers? Something like "Printer-Studio" and "printer-bedroom"? Or something that works somehow...

  Thank you.

  Pedrosacelso,

  It is possible to change the name of the printer, many customers buy more than one printer to a desktop environment and need to change the printer name to identify the printer.

  If you have problems with the above steps back on the support forums.

• HP Officejet Pro 8100, Windows 7 64-bit.

  Print is not centered on the page. large left margin and missing letters on the right side of the page. The exact same txt printed on a different printer is perfectly centered. This printer is on a network with 3 different computers and this printer print offset any source.

  Sorry Ginny! Go to our website www.hp.com/go/support, select the green box on the left side of the page, then search for your printer model (in this case an Officejet Pro 8100).

  This will take you to a page to select your operating system, and then below it will be links to various downloads related to your printer for your operating system. Sect most mark next to "Firmware" and click on the link to be redirected to the download page.

  Download and run the file.

  I would like to know how it goes!
