Can't scan with HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g

The printer just stopped working yesterday.  I am running Yosemite 10.10.2. Through internet research, I've upgraded to the latest drivers and software HP.  I have reset print.  Can I get printing to work with an ethernet cable.  Wireless does not work.

I now get an error of scanning HP printer is not available.  However, the printer works when I print to.

I spent hours trying to solve this problem.  Please help, the printer and copier work but not the scanner.

Thank you - all the wireless functions: printing and scanning to work again.  I followed the guide, but it took a number of attempts.  I think the main thing that I was missing before I used this guide was remove the preference.

    How can I get my HP Officejet Pro 8600 more to scan a full legal size paper? He cut scanning letter-size, but the specifications say it will scan the legal size.

    Hello

    The analysis of parameters need to be changed to HP Scan App. launch of the HP scan application from your computer and select the option left (PDF or JPEG...) and then choose the size of legal scan on the right.

    Save and close the application.

    Now you can scan in legal.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 n911g stops and you need to restart the spooler on Win Xp

    Hello

    I have an OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911g printer.  It is networked and I put the static IP address on the printer.

    I have a user with about once a day to restart the Windows print spooler service so that tasks start printing.  I loaded, uninstalled and reloaded the Windows XP drivers.

    Any thoughts on how to solve this problem?

    Hello

    Have you used the latest version of the software on the HP site?

    If not, uninstall the printer from programs > HP > printer folder and then install the latest version below:

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=bi-108858-3&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en&OS=228&product=4323648&sw_lang=

    I suspect also any security program which may block the network connection (assuming that by the description of problem on a single user), temporary disable any software firewall running and check if that can cause printing to stay in spool it print.

    Try to run the HP print and Scan doctor, click on network > firewall help and make sure any firewall running is disabled, then follow Fiox print and check what is happening:

    If still the same I guess rather the envoirnment of the OS, you can try running Microsoft Fixit to diagnose service print spooler for questions and automatically check if this can help:

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911g - touch screen ' back arrow ' & 'Home' icons do not respond.

    The touch screen on my brand new (3 days of use) HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911g does not work well. I am able to select an option, for example, the 'settings', but I can't go "before"through screens - the 'back' arrow, or the icons 'Home' of work." Whenever I want to get in another section of the configuration, I power the machine off and back on to see a menu of 'House' cool touchscreen.

    This seems to be a hardware problem. You should maybe contact the HP Support (1800-474-6836) or taking it back to the store. Well, here's a link you can follow and help with this question. This can solve the problem. Let me know the results.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 n911g: ink level 8600 rest from scratch with new 950XL

    My black cartridge in my 8600 printer ran out of ink. I had already replaced all the colors of three cartridges with a 951XL defined, a month or two ago, and the process went smoothly as planned. Today after replacing the black cartridge, adjustment noise seemed short, and the façade is estimated ink level zero rest.

    I tried the following diagnosis:

    -Reinsert the black print cartridge

    -Reinsert all four cartridges

    -market power

    -a second new HP 950XL

    -test page

    -the print head alignment

    -clean the printhead

    -Printing HP and doctor Scan, install and run - prompted me to update software - which did not fix the problem

    Print quality seems good on the test pages. I can only assume that the printer works satisfactorily, but I prefer to resolve this problem and eliminate the uncertainty of my use of the printer. Please suggest how I might solve this problem.

    Welcome to the HP community @Huwon,

    I came across your post about the black ink cartridges that do not properly record in your Officejet 8600 more, and I wanted to comment with my suggestions and comments. I must say that you tried the troubleshooting steps I would have suggested. You can also try an update to see if that helps. If the problem persists, contact HP to see on a replacement unit.

    Click here for download of the firmware update: Firmware N911g_n HP Officejet Pro 8600

    Try a reset to full power:

    Turn on the printer.
    With the printer, unplug the power cord at the back of the unit.
    Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
    Wait at least 15 seconds.
    Plug the power cord into the wall outlet.
    Reconnect the power cord to the back of the unit.
    If the printer does not by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.

  • 8.1 Windows Pro problem with HP OfficeJet Pro 8600

    I am running Windows Pro 8.1.
    I tried to install the software and drivers for HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 without success.

    I tried to remove the software, reinstall, reboot the computer, do a 'clean' start, and nothing has worked so far.

    I received the following error message:

    Impossible to install a file that is necessary because the CAB file c:\users\User\appdata\local\temp\7zS2EAD\OJ860x64.cab has a signature digital invalid. This may indicate that the file is corrupted.

    The error message is the same every time I try something new.

    I am able to print, if I add the printer through the option "add a printer" in Windows Explorer, but I want to install the complete software so that I can scan also.

    I downloaded more than 10 times the files several associates of troubleshooting: troubleshooting HP Installation failure MSI, HP Print and Scan doctor, but they have not helped at all.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Alfitoand welcome to the Forums of HP, I hope you enjoy your experience!

    I see that you have found errors during the installation.  I want to help you with this.

    I would start by trying to install on another account on the computer.

    It also seems that there may be a corruption in the temp directory.  I suggest you remove all your temp HP folder.  I am including the steps to get the specific folder:

    -On your keyboard, hold down your windows key and R key

    -A 'RUN' box will become available

    -Type in %Temp%, and then hit

    -Open your folder that begins with 7z

    -Delete everything inside

    -Restart your computer

    Once you have done this, I recommend reinstalling the software using the HP printer install wizard for Windows.

    If this does not resolve the issue, I would recommend going to your home screen in mosaic, and typing in CMD and press to enter.  That will take you to your command prompt.  In you command prompt, type sfc/scannow, and then press ENTER.

    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  • thin horizontal black line down page what scan on HP Officejet Pro 8600 more

    I've owned an HP Officejet Pro 8500 and scan was perfect.  I recently bought a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus.

    When I scan from the ADF HP 8600, I get a thin (several pixel wide) black along the lower edge of the analysis that results.  This line will be sometimes slightly twisted or appear only through half of the page, in which case, it tends to become thicker towards the edge of the page).  According to me, this line is an artifact of the analysis of the edge at the bottom of the original document.  I think it is to show where the bottom edge of the page was when parsing.  If the document is that a little offset, then the black line down will be a little twisted, probably following the edge of the page.  This issue is consistent and reproducible.  It is in the mode "Scan mail" and in mode 'Scan To Network Folder.

    When I scan from the flat bed, I get a very narrow black line along the side of the analysis resulting very superior, but the background seems in good condition (although I have not tested this widely).

    These fine black lines occurred when scanning the HP 8500.

    I wonder if there is a setting to adjust it, or if it is a firmware difference between printers needs debugging.

    Hey KenAlker,

    There are a few things I want to check if you have lines when scanning using the 8600. I see that mention you that lines appear both through ADF and flat glass. There may be something both of the glass sections used by this printer, but more often that otherwise, this isn't the case.

    I would check if the printer is connected to a surge protector. If this is the case, then try plugging the 8600 in a direct outlet. Often the surge protector can cause this problem appears because the printer has a built.

    Also, try a hard reset:
    * Unplug the unit while the
    Disconnect the other end of the wall socket direct
    * Wait 30-60 seconds
    * Plug the unit to the top

    Also, try to take a look at the steps in the document found here.

    I hope this helps.

  • Duplex with an Officejet Pro 8600

    Hello world

    I just bought a HP all-in-one Officejet Pro 8600 and installed it and got operational.  I have an accessory front for two-sided printing, but for some reason, other that printing from a browser web, there is no option for double-sided printing in the print menu.  Here is a screenshot of what I get.  I understand there should be also a double-sided printing check box.

    I'm on a MacBook Pro OS X and I followed all instructions print double-sided, including system preferences > print & scan > Options & supplies > pilot > check "Double-sided (duplexer) printing accessory HP" (see second screenshot below) however still cannot get the print duplex option to display.  The duplexer works because I'm able to use printing from a web browser... just not another another application (for example, Adobe, Word, Excel, etc.).

    Any help/tips GREATLY appreciated.

    Thank you

    Craig

    Hi Craig

    Follow the steps below to print printing double-sided for different applications:

    1. On the file menu, select print. The print window is displayed.
      NOTE: The print window might be minimized. Click the blue triangle next to the name of the printer or on the button view details to see all the available parameters.
      Adobe, the application print dialog appears... Click the printer down button to access the system print dialog box...
    2. In the print window expanded you will find next to Copies the checkbox for duplex. Select the check box.
      NOTE: If the check box does not appear in the specific application print dialog box, skip this step.
    3. To select the connection type click the selection box below, listed as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
      Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.
    4. Select layout from the drop-down.
    5. Set the duplex as the binding edge Long (Portrait) or binding Long Edge (landscape).

    You can save the settings for later use by clicking preset > save current settings as preset.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: PC stopped communicating with wireless Officejet Pro 8600 more

    My HP printer has been connected to my PC via my home wireless network and work without problem, for 18 months.  A few weeks ago the printer stop appearing in the printer dialog box when I went to print a document.  The printer continues to operate wireless for all my mobile devices without problem.

    I went through all the HP process and tools for troubleshooting, downloaded and installed all updates, nothing helps.  I uninstalled my PC off and now it will not reinstall.  The installation process see the printer on the network, but when I try to install it it said "cannot be installed on the network" and it goes no further. I lost hours and hours trying to get to the bottom of it, nothing helps.

    What is the problem?

    Hi @Layli,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I noticed that your PC has stopped communicating with your HP Officejet Pro 8600 wireless connection more. I'm sorry to hear that, but happy to help!

    Out of curiosity, what happens if you install the printer using the USB method wireless configuration? Check out this guide, your wireless printerand select Configuration USB wireless.

    Also, if this does not work, able to install the printer are you using a USB connection? In this way, we can see if the problem could be the connection itself or not.

    You see error messages on the control panel of the printer at all?

    Thanks for posting and hope to hear from you soon!

  • How can I get my hp officejet pro 8600 to print a custom size

    Hi, I just upgraded from the officejet pro 8500 to the officejet pro 8600, I try to print a piece of the custom paper size.  The size is 26.9 mm x 13.4 mm, I am on windows 7.

    The error is:-paper detected does not match format of paper or type selected.

    I had 4 printers officejet different over the years and never not been able to print a custom size, can someone please help with this one.

    Some printers are able to print custom formats real, but most made currently are not. It is because the printer must be able to recognize and 'confidence' settings which are entered. If a number was entered incorrectly, the printer can damage its internal components.

    This is especially true in this case, because the above dimensions are considerably smaller than anything that can be printed.

    My recommendation is to use a paper size appropriate to print materials and cut the large piece to the correct size.

    Let me know if it helps!

    Greetings @HPofficejetPro,

    I saw your post about the problems you are having and I can find some things that you can try.

    Have you tried another ethernet cable?

    The same thing happens when you connect with a USB cable?

    Is the printer connected directly to a wall outlet or a surge protector or a power bar? We want to connect it to a wall outlet so that we can eliminate the source of energy as the primary cause. See this document for more information on the problems when connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power (Note: this document is not limited to printers Laserjet.)

    Please let me know the results, or if there is anything else I can do to help.
