Duplex with an Officejet Pro 8600

• Duplex printing HP Officejet Pro 8600 using Mac OSX 10.7.5

  I have OSX 10.7.5 and I recently purchased the Officejet Pro 8600. I noticed that when I choose to print from Firefox browser, I see the duplex printing option. I don't see this option when printing from Word, Excel or Adobe software.

  Is selected in system preferences, then why can't two-sided printing from these applications?

  I wanted to share what I found, in case someone else has the same questions (I got a quick help of Apple Support communities/forums).  I don't know if this applies to versions of Microsoft office, but my key learning is that the checkbox will appear not at all for these programs. You will need to set by other means.

  Microsoft 2008

  Go to the print dialog box

  Choose the submenu "Layout" (I think that this menu by default to "Copies and Pages")

  There is a "double" option, and choose 'off', "mandatory long edge" or "short edge binding.

  Once I did this and the saved settings, he worked also for Excel and Adobe.

  The only problem with Adobe, it's that you must follow these steps whenever you print. If I just hit print without following the steps below, it will not print duplex. The steps are on the following link.

  http://helpx.Adobe.com/Acrobat/KB/print-double-sided-Acrobat-Reader.html#main_Ma c_OS_print_double_sided

  I was expecting the same dialog box that is displayed on the browser also seems with my other apps, and this is not the case.

• 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!

• 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!

  As soon as I turn on my printer after some time one get a short flash printerscreen code: B84D7A4. Subsequently, I get the massage that I have to powerdown the printen and turning the power on again. This repeat hisself without end. If I disconnect the network cable from the printer starts normal.

  If I connect to another network port, I have the same problem.

  Who knows the solution for this.

  I can still print via USB cable in. But I don't get the option to the printerscreen: SW update.

  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?

  HP regularly publishes updates of firmware that can also correct the problem you are experiencing. With the USB cable is connected, you can click on this link to download the firmware update for the. HP Officejet Pro 8600 more e-All-in-One Printer - N911g.

  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.

• How to print on legal paper with my Officejet Pro 8600?

  I have an Officejet Pro 8600.  It has a single paper tray that will not grow to hold legal size paper.  I could stuff a few sheets of legal size paper in the tray and close it, but the printer will print only top 11 "of the page.  What can I do to be able to print the full 14 "?

  Hello

  In my view, it will be. Remove all the paper and pull on the status bar, you can see in the lower part (part blue/cyan) which allows you to extend the status bar to accommodate legal size documents.

• Problem with HP Officejet pro 8600 Mac parring

  I've recently updated my OS to OSX 10.9.1 and have now lost my wifi connection. I downloaded the latest printer drivers from the net but without success - of the suggestions, anyone?

  Hi Mequetrece,

  I understand that you have a 8600 Officejet which does not seem to connect with your Mac since the upgrade to 10.9. I will definitely do my best to help you with this problem.

  I wish that you check and make sure that the printer has not lost its connection before try us something else. I would like you print a Network Configuration Page , and see if the printer is connected to your network and has an IP address valid. So which shows always connected, I would recommend power cycling your network. To do this, please turn off the Mac and the printer and wait until they are completely off. Then go to your router to remove 30 seconds before plugging plug it back in. Once all the lights are back to normal on the router, replace the Mac, and then on the printer and wait for them both to set before trying to print again.

  If this does not work, you would be able to tell me, did you uninstall your software and reinstall after upgrade to 10.9 or are you still using possibly previous operating system software? (I know you said that you have downloaded the latest drivers, but I ask more for the portion of the question uninstalling )

  Hope this helps, have a nice day!

• 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.

• OfficeJet Pro 8600 - Macbook Pro and Macbook Air does not print

  Products:

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600
  • MacBook Pro (Mac OS X, Version 10.7.5)
  • MacBook Air (OS X, Version 10.8.2)

  Question:

  • Why my Mac initially print fine, but now will not print?

  Full article:

  I have a wireless network in my house that consisted of a 30 MB cable internet, Netgear 900n, HP Officejet Pro 8600, 2 laptops from Dell with Windows 7, a laptop Lenovo with Windows 7 and Dell with Windows 7 trick, all printed matter very well.

  The HP Officejet 8600 was added to my network about 2 months ago.

  I added a Macbook Pro and Macbook Air about 3 weeks ago.  The two Macs printed fine for about a week.  Then suddenly they stop.  I spent about 2 hours on the phone with HP's Service, and finally, they said to my router.  So I called Netgear.  NETGEAR was useless!  They wanted me to accept fees for services before they would even discuss the issue.

  As a result of information provided by the HP support service, and because Netgear will not support their product, I quickly bought a new router - an Apple Airport Extreme.

  Macs will recognize the printer will print if connected via a USB cable, but do not print wirelessly on the Officejet Pro 8600.  The fine impression CPA.

  The frustration that is felt is made up by the fact that Macs printed very well with the Officejet Pro 8600 2 weeks and now the printer shows just "idle"... even with a new router. (see image below)

  Please help, thank you very much for all support.

  As a side note, the representative of the HP Service was very friendly and definitely tried to support the HP product, which is much more I can say about Netgear.

  Thank you

  

  Hello

  More likely a problem with Multicast, which Apple devices are relies on to communicate with the device through the network.

  First try unplugging the router for 30 seconds.

  Connect to the power supply and wait 2-3 minutes.

  Turn off the HP printer and turn it back on, then check all difference.

  If it persists, try to change the configuration of your router as follows

  Note: the settings below are not related with the HP product, I provide you with the steps as a best efforts and those based only on my own knowledge. You can try to change the settings of the router at your own risk:

  1. Open the router configuration page (you'll find listed as the default gateway by clicking the icon on the printer wireless, then print a network configuration report.
     
  2. Click the Advanced tab.
  3. Click the configuration option in the menu, and then click Setup WAN.
  4. Be sure to uncheck the box Disable IGMP proxy transmission and apply the changes.
  5. Click on the LAN configuration on the same Setup menu.
  6. Set the RIP RIP-2 Version and apply the changes.
  7. Restart your router and then check any change.

  I hope that you will find useful information, you can also use the guide to the user below for more information:

  Hello RedRoscoe,
  
  I would like to see if I can help with the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus scan to E-mail and Web Services questions. I think that the issues can be addresses by two steps, I hope.

  About scanning to E-mail, you can be blocked by the two-step verification. What is the email client that you want to activate the printer for, MSN, Gmail, etc.?

  Issues of Web Services, try to apply a manual DNS 209.244.0.3 & 209.244.0.4 to the printer's manual I.P address.

  See you soon,.
