Hey @Luc3,

Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

I appreciate that you try to connect a 6830 e-all-in-one printer Officejet to your Mac OSX 10.5.8 computer. There is no driver available for this version of the Mac OS x. Use the Officejet 6830 you need at least Mac OS x 10.7.

  • OfficeJet Pro 6830: MacBook Pro does not print wirelessly for Officejet Pro 6830

    I used to have an old HP Officejet 7210 who was once able to print wirelessly from my MacBook pro, but at some point, wasn't able to do wireless and had to print with usb connection.

    For Black Friday, we bought an Officejet Pro 6830 and on internet I downloaded the latest driver for my MacBook Pro and my windows laptop of wifes and our desktop PC. The mobile office and windows had no problem, but once more, I was not able to print wireless from the MacBook Pro. When I try to print wireless the printer dialogue indicates he's trying to deal with and then it says "the printer is currently in use". So I'll still have to plug the USB to print with this new printer is less than a month.

    I was able to print the wireless test page and he noted that the test page bypassed print drivers. In addition, I am able to go into the printer utilities and see how much ink, I have and the various settings of the printer but I just cannot print documents from applications wireless.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Hello

    First of all, do not forget to reboot your router by unplugging its power for a while, then let it 2-3 minutes to reboot and restart the printer.

    Make sure that the printer is connected wireless and blue wire it light.

    Try now to go to System Preferences > print & scan and click on the sign more. you see the printer listed?

    May you had prior display the problem started with your previous printer? for example a new router, changes of settings, etc. ?

  • OfficeJet Pro 6830: replaced warranty for printer and cartridges of manipulation

    My Officejet Pro 6830 AiO printer doesn't have 3 months after purchase (power supply is ok, but it no longer lights). I contacted HP support and a replacement printer is on the way.
    Unfortunately I replaced all ink cartridges 'setup' 4 with brand new just a few days before the failure of the printer, so I asked the Lady to support (good person) if and how I can recover the defective device.
    She told me to take off the cartridges of the faulty unit and retain them for the replacement printer, but was to serve once the "setup" cartridges sent with the unit will be out of ink.

    Now, I have some doubts:

    (1) when I take my full semi the defective printer cartridges, I fear that the ink will start to dry... should I cover the opening at the bottom of the cartridges with tape? Will it be enough?

    (2) the ink in the printhead of the defective unit will start to get dry as well. The defect of the device is clearly in electronics, while the print head has worked perfectly. Isn't bad to leave the print head is clogged by dry ink? I still have empty cartridges "setup" out (differentiation 'stock' of waste...) should I put them on the print head?

    (3) the defective printer does not turn so to loosen its cartridges, I need to manually pull the cart of the printhead to the center position. Is it Ok?

    Thanks to all those who will clear this point to me.

    Hi @RickyGold,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I see that you have questions about your printer HP Officejet Pro 6830. I am happy to answer these questions for you!

    To answer your questions:

    1. To properly store the cartridges, I suggest you put them in an airtight container, such as a ziplock bag or Tupperware. Make sure that the contacts on the cartridges are not touch anything.
    2. I wouldn't worry about the obstruction with the defective printer printhead.
    3. I suggest to try to move the cartridge door manually, but don't force it, if it will not move freely. If you are unable to get the cartridges, please contact HPtelephone support for further assistance. As they would be able to replace the cartridges for you. (After you fill out the information, you will receive a phone number.) If you do not live in the United States / Canada region, please click the link below to get help from your region number.

    I see that you are unable to communicate with the Scanner with your HP Officejet Pro 6830 on Windows 8.1. I'm happy to help you!

    In the meantime, please, try the procedure described in this guide, a message 'no computer found' for HP Officejet 6810 and HP Officejet Pro 6830 e-all-in-one printerand let me know what happens!

  • Printer HP Officejet Pro 6830: OS 10.6.8 and Officejet Pro 6830

    I just bought a HP all-in-one Officejet 6830 Pro printer, fax, scanner, copier.  I connected it to my laptop, a MacBook Pro OS 10.6.8.  It copy in color, but it will not print from a file in color.  He apparently correctly scan in color, but not to print the scanned in color.  How to print in color?  I can't upgrade my system because I will not be able to access critical software.  What recourse do I have?  When I bought it was incompatible with some operating systems, there is no warning!

    Hey @cshein,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.

    I understand that you encounter an incompatibility between your old version of Mac OS and your new HP Officejet Pro 6830 e-all-in-one printer.  I would like to help.  I can certainly sympathize with you on this one - even if your Mac is not old in real terms, Snow Leopard not blessed with a specific driver for your printer.  I have a workaround that you can try:

    The steps I posted in another thread here suggest using the generic PCL driver for the Mac.  This thread is about a former printer used with Yosemite, this article indicates that the similarities between the latest version of Mac and Snow Leopard are close enough to my advice work with your devices.  Let me know if this approach to configuration works and allows you to print in color.

    Note that the generic PCL printer driver probably won't make you analyze the features of the computer.  If you want to scan without using HP software, click here to get suggestions from HP on how to do it.  Note that this article 10.7 Mac users - oriented steps must always be relevant as Apple Preview, picture Capture and printing and scanning app are all common Mac OS applications that probably are Aussies in versions older Mac OS.

  • HP Officejet Pro 6830: NEW HP PRINTER only IS NOT supported with the current El captain on Apple Mac software

    Hi have just purchsed the HP officejet Pro 6830 and the course of development in place, is that the current operating system (Mac El Captain) does not support this printer. FRUSTRATING! Suggestions that I can download other software that will support the printer or do I have to return it and get another printer?

  • OfficeJet Pro 6830: OS x 10.8

    After about six months of problem-free operation, printer not responding when jobs are sent from wireless computer (Chrome, Word, etc.).  The printer prints the test pages correctly again and print jobs sent from mobile devices without problems, so the problem seems to lie somewhere in communication wireless between the computer and the printer on certain types of jobs.  When a job is sent, the printer window reads "Printing - the printer is in use" but infinitely coils.

    All the updates of OS x have been installed, printer driver has been reinstalled several times, the computer has been restarted several times, printer has been disconnected and reconnected several times and router has been restarted once.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?  Thank you!

  • OfficeJet Pro 6830: Printer OfficeJet Pro 6830 how to scan to PDF files

    I bought a HP OfficeJet Pro 6830, and I can't understand how to scan documents from the printer to my computer in PDF format. It analyzes only in JPEG format.

    The documentation I found online says that the PDF option should be present on the touch screen, but are the only options on my printer to scan to the computer, fax scan, scan to e-mail, etc..

    I have 10 windows and a new HP laptop.

    Can anyone help?

    Hello

    Thanks for your comments.

    The disc that came with the printer may or may not have the support to win 10 OS as the priter was launched before Win 10 is available - where the download URL would be a safer way to get the WIn 10 OS feature MANY software.

    We recommend that you download (save on the hard drive) rather than installing in online it.

    After you install the FULL features software, you will be able to scan in PDF format.

    Hope that helps.

  • OfficeJet Pro 6830: Can't print multiple copies with my new 6830 Pro of Officejet

    I installed my 6830 and have updated the drivers.  It is on my home wifi network and works well.   All functions work perfectly, but when I try to print multiple copies by selecting the number of copies in the print dialog in Adobe Reader, MS Word and MS Excel, all I get is a copy no matter how much I said.  (This is probably true of other software, too, but these are the only ones I've tried so far).  This makes print multiple copies very tedious.

    Why it won't print multiple copies, and how to fix it?

    Welcome to the HP community @JoetheGOM ,

    I read your post about how you cannot print multiple copies of your Mac 10.7, running to your Officejet 6830. I have some suggestions for you below!

    Try these steps in order:

    1. Reset the printing system
    2. Repair disk permissions
    3. Restart the Mac.
    4. Install the complete driver here: HP Officejet Pro 6830 e-all-in-one printer
    5. Repeat your impressions.

    If you cannot always make several copies, try posting this question in Apple Support communities.
