Cardstock printing on HP Officejet 8600

Hello...

I see recommendations on how to print on cardstock under Mac OSx (10.8) under the heading "How to print cardstock on HP Officejet 8600?"  I can't find the settings mentioned in this thread, and when I asked more information received no answer so I decided to start this new thread here.

I just installed my 8600 + and cannot print cardstock, get a message ' paper', and I hope that there is some form of a 'paper' setting but cannot find where it would be.

Any help?  Thank you.

Hi pborsella,

You are welcome I am pleased that the problem has been resolved completely.

  • HP Officejet 8600 more print and scan problems

    Hello

    I had my HP officejet 8600 more for 2-3 years and always had problems following and just kept reinstalling the drivers as a quick fix. I am now starting a business from home and I have no time to deal with printing and scanning the questions and, of course, my warranty has expired! My operating system is OS X version 10.9.4.

    When I scan to my computer, the printer indicates "not found computer." The status of my mac is no different than when I scanned a document a few days ago! Remove and reinstall the drivers solves this problem temporarily but I want it fixed permanently.

    In addition, when printing, sometimes a page can print immediately and at other times, it may take 5-10 minutes to print even if its status is 100% full in the print queue - even once, reinstall the drivers is a quick fix but I want a permanent solution.

    Any help to solve these problems would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you very much...

  • How can I print a watermark on my documents with HP OfficeJet 8600?

    Can I print a watermark with HP OfficeJet 8600?

    You can install software, not the printer. What software do you use?

  • HP OfficeJet 8600: Print using black ink only

    We use our printer as a copier only.  It is not connected to a computer.  Why do the color cartridges run out of ink and we cannot print black print.  We print any documents using color.  Is it possible to turn on the black only?

    Sorry, but the HP Officejet Pro 8600 has separated from the inks and printheads and requires that all inks are available to avoid damage to the print head.

    You can minimize the ink used with the following steps:

    • Use draft mode when the quality is sufficient.  Draft mode uses about half the ink or Normal or best mode.
    • Power switch of the printer only allows to turn off the printer.  If an external switch (as a protector or output impulse) is used more ink will be used at startup.

    HP and other printer manufacturers have technology another printer for different needs.  For ink jet printers:

    • Some have integrated into the ink cartridges print heads.  These printers can print generally with one or more of the colors completely empty, or even with color or black cartridges (but not both) removed. The Officejet 8040 has us an example.
    • Other printers have separate replaceable printheads and inks.  An example would be the printer Officejet 8600.  In these printers print head can be replaced if they are damaged by running the printhead with colors off.  Some of these printers allow printing with a color, the other will not.  If the printer is run without ink in one or several colours, the printer may be damaged, but the user may be able to recover without having to send to the printer for the service.
    • Other printers have permanent print heads.  To run only those without little ink in all colours would risk causing damage to the print head because of clogs, air ingested in the printhead or grilled printhead resistances of shooting. The Officejet 6700 is an example of this type of printer. For printers with fixed print heads that could require the service to get the printer to print properly again when the ink is finally replaced.

    The document described here how the ink is used.  The document is written for inkjet printers HP the same principles apply to printers inkjet from other manufacturers.

    If you do ever print color laser printer would probably be a better choice.  If you occasionally print color but especially black a HPI printer as those in the first category above can be a good choice.

  • Mac cannot print wireless HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium

    I have a wireless network of office with some Mac and some PC and an HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium.   During the initial Setup, the first Mac was able to print fine, but today, he was not able to print.

  • Printer (n911a) e-all-in-one HP Officejet 8600: higher margins when printing Pages

    I use a Hp Officejet 8600 (N911a) e-all-in-one model.

    Windows 7 64-bit SP1

    The printer is updated to the latest versions of firmware and software.

    Browsers: IE 10, Firefox Google Chrome 32 26

    It is using wireless (wireless router)

    When I try to print something, she often prints too large

    (for example, when you print a coupon, he eventually print half left of the coupon because half right extends beyond the margin of page). You can only print coupons a limited number of times.

    I am able to change the print size in IE 10 by right-clicking > print preview > and size reduction before you print it. Firefox is always printed on the margins.

    I tried using the print Hp and Scan troubleshooting utility doctor. It found no errors.

    Note: this problem is not occue when I choose to print to a different printer (HP LaserJet Professional M1217nfw MFP)

    I am a student, so I insist a lot on this printer. All advice is appreciated.

    Thank you!!!

    Hello

    It looks like firefox and printer compatibility. Firefox has just released a document fo adjust the print settings.

  • HP officejet 8600 wireless printing error

    My HP officejet 8600 wireless 1 page prints at once.  Anything larger than a page and I got an error message.  Recently upgraded from WINDOWS 8 to 8.1 - no improvement.  Very frustrating! It would really appreciate advice...

    Hello dabadia,

    I'm sorry to hear that your 8600 Officejet will print a single page at a time after your upgrade to 8.1 Win. I would like to help you and give you my best advice.

    I recommend running HP Print and doctor to analyze first to find and fix common printing problems.

    If this does not resolve the problem, I recommend then Uninstall the printer, restart your computer and reinstall the software using the Printer Wizard install for Windows.

    Good luck, I hope this works for you!

    Kind regards

  • HP Officejet 8600: No photo printing

    My Hp officejet 8600 will display the text but no pictures.  He told me my printer does not communicate with the printer, I can print a text very well.

    How is the connected printer - USB, wired LAN or wireless? What program are you printing from?

    I suggest going into Word (you have one) and paste a picture into a document with text.  Try to print to it.  If it prints OK I suspect the settings of the printer for the program that you use to print photo is perhaps not properly configured.

    If a Word document with a photo and text does not print http://www.hp.com/go/tools diagnostics can help solve the problem.

  • Problems when scanning double-sided printer Officejet 8600 Pro Plus

    Hello everyone

    I recently bought a printer HP Officejet 8600 Pro Plus (CM750A n911g)

    I am facing difficulties when more than one original double face scanning by ADF.

    A single page works fine, but with several pages it works in about 10% of cases.

    This is what is happening.

    In normal situations, side of first page the page is parsed, page is hit, second side is scanned, new page flips and ejects the page.

    But there are times that when the first side is scanned the first page is fed into the ADF, the second page we begin to slide into the ADF, because the upper feed Dungeon rollers turning at this time here in time.

    For the moment that first page trying to flip the machine 'sees' the second page and decided to eject the first page without analyzing the second side. It begins directly to scan the first side of the second page. (image is reversed 180% because the machine "thinks" it is the second part of the first page)

    This is happening (not always, sometimes some pages are treated as it should be) up to the last page.

    Last page is always correct, since there is no next page more to disrupt the process.

    Anyone know what to do to avoid this behavior? The paper used is normal paper 80g.

    I installed the latest version of the firmware in this machine (CLP1CN1304AR)

    I'm starting to think that this could be a bug software and superior power rollers run too long.

    I've tried different settings and this happens when starting a scan of the computer, but also when starting a scan of the screen touchscreen printer.

    Thanks for any answers

    Kind regards

    Ronny

    This one is over.

    For those who might be interested, he has focused on the machine.

    Machine update itself to works and always the latest version of the firmware very well

    Good bye

  • How can I print from my phone smart hp officejet 8600 window 7 64-bit

    How can I print on my printer to my Android phone

    You can do this in two ways:
    ePrint printer (set up an email from the printer and send a document to the Android)
    * Use the HP ePrint home & Biz app that allows you to print directly to the printer of the Android

    In both cases, the officejet 8600 should be connected to your network wirelessly or through ethernet. To start using home & Biz it android should be connected to the same wireless network that the printer is working correctly.

    I hope this helps.

  • OfficeJet 8600: using "Send a Fax" in the companion printer into default printer changing to the fax printer

    Problem with the default printer, changing the Fax 8600 8600

    Windows 10 with the latest installation of the 8600 software

    This problem occurs in the printer Assistant software when you use "send a Fax".

    By clicking "Send a Fax" will cause my default printer change to the 8600 fax.

    I don't know how to change it in devices and printers, but hopes to fix the problem.

    Thanks for the reply.
    In fact, I found the solution. It was a setting of Windows 10.
    Apparently, 10 Windows will change the default printer to the printer last used (in this case, the printer named as the "fax" printer).
    To fix this, I went to:
    Beginning
    Parameters
    Devices of
    Printers, Scanners &
    and turned off the coast "Let Windows manage my default printer"

    This solves the problem. Coming from Windows 7 I wasn't aware of this setting.

  • scanning duplex hp officejet 8600

    Hello!  I was wasting a ton of time trying to figure out how to scan duplex using HP officejet 8600.  Is there a driver or software, I need?  Now when I go to my settings of the printer in the Control Panel, it only shows my printer and fax. I don't really see an option to change the settings on my scanner.  Even if I can scan.  I want to be able to use the high plateau of the loader page to scan both sides.  (I plan on my teaching books everything on a USB for easy access and sharing.)  "This is the main purpose of me to have bought this printer.)

    Help, please!

    What model 8600 Officejet do you have?  The Officejet 8600 more and Officejet 8600 Premium have ability to scan double-sided, the Officejet 8600 standard does not.  You can check from the Panel with the copy settings - most and Premium have an option to make the copies face 2:1 or 2:2 for the original and copies, the standard version has options for 1:1 and 1:2.

    If you have the Officejet 8600 Plus or Premium, what operating system are you using?  How the connected printer - USB connected LAN or wireless LAN?

  • Cannot sweep of the MAC Book Pro using OfficeJet 8600

    I have used my OfficeJet Pro 8600 to scan until last week.  So I rebooted the software of HP and I still can't analyze.  I tried the Apple via AirPrint (version 2.0) drivers, still does not work.  Prints well but will not scan.  10.10 OSX is loaded but it worked for weeks after that.  The strange thing is that analyze the Mac of my wife (an old portable) with OS x 10.10 using version 1.0 of AirPrint.  Ideas?  I tried all the resets of the queues, etc.
