• Cannot start the HP printing software (HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910a)

  Hello

  When I double-click the icon of the HP software on my desktop behavior strange results. Nothing opens and my computer behaves erratically. After a while I get the following error messages:

  instancefinderdlg.exe

  werfault.exe

  Then after that - my computer restarts so all by himself. But not a complete reboot - it just goes back to the initial logon screen and I get my password from Windows and displays the desktop.

  I am running Windows Pro 8.1 (64-bit). The printer is set to work wireless.

  After doubleclicking on the HP software icon and wait for the software to open, as I mentioned above, one thing I tried was a ctrl-alt-del and open Task Manager. I checked the services running, and there were multiple instances of a service life of HP (I not only remember the name but there seems to be dozens of the same HP service running).

  I also completely uninstalled all HP software use Revo Uninstaller and then reinstalled the software / driver for the OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910a - but this package did not make a difference; exactly the same problem occurred again.

  It happened only in recent days. Before that, I could double-click the HP software icon and open normally and I was able to check the settings, ink levels, etc. Interestingly, the printer seems to always work well - I can print in Word, print photos from Lightroom, etc. Just, I can't open my desktop HP printing software.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

  Hi jedasa,

  I guess you can start to feel frustrated. I did some additional research and would like to try a few things. I want to delete the printer Assistant icon, open devices and printers, right-click on your printer and choose open. In the window that opens, please right-click on the Printer Wizard and click on create a shortcut. Now we can go to the desktop and see if it will be open from there. The icon will now by HP in a blue circle and say HP Printer Wizard below (see image below).  If it opens and works, we use this going forward, but if it does not continue with the steps below.

  

  1. Hold down the Windows Logo key ( ) on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the dialog box run, type %temp%
  2. Delete all files and folders in the temp folder. Choose Skip if all pop ups seem to say all files cannot be deleted
  3. Unplug the USB cable (if connected), open programs and features, click Editor (all HP software will be together now) and uninstall all software associated with the printer. You fill find the basic driver, study for improvement of the product, HP Officejet 8500 help. Be sure to do not uninstall other HP software, especially if your computer is a HP computer. I generally use the date as a reference. Printing software would have all been installed on the same date.
  4. Once the uninstall is complete, reboot the computer
  5. Follow these steps to reset the registry settings and options for Windows Installer.

• Want to b/w standard printing only - HP Officejet Pro 8500 Plus.

  Only - want b & w HP Officejet Pro 8500 more.

  I wonder how to enable this machine to use the black and white ALWAYS mm cartridge.

  I heard that the printer can use color cartridges even if I print in black only. I want to save color to photo print cartridges only.

  How can I ensure this? I can't find all the settings in the printer display saying "use black and white printing.

  And if there is a setting somewere therefor; which "desides" setting - if I have after setting b/w printing standard, chosen color in print for a photo windows? I need never color printing except if I print a photo.

  I also wonder if there is a way around the situation when a color is empty, and print black and white ends...! ?

  Help appreciated!

  You ask the most difficult

  It depends on what you are printing. I don't think that any printer uses much (if any) color with shades of gray.

  However, if tell you him to use black and white only (generally an option after clicking on the checkbox in grayscale), it will not print anything but black. The bad thing about this is that sometimes you can lose part of what you print if there are photos or font color in what you want to print. Anything that is not considered by the application as a true black could not appear in print.

  It could work well, if you're careful, but you may sometimes have something missing in the printout.

• Gibberish print on HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 has more in a single 910

  Files Adobe PDF prints gibberish, sometimes on my HP Officejet Pro 8500 has most everything one - sometimes in a part of the page it's gibberish, sometimes all this, sometimes none of that.

  Good news. A specialist technology mine fixed simply by running a repair on my installed Adobe program.  Don't know how she is, but she said it has an option to run a repair and it did.  I had many phone HP technicians and business software tech trying to solve this problem over the last 3 years.  YAA!  And technicians called Yaa (migrant from Africa).

• Cyan is not printing on HP Officejet Pro 8500 has more - Air bubbles in the ink tubes

  Hi all

  I know why cyan is not printing.  It is because of the following:

  Ago, I ran out of ink cyan printing ("please replace cyan before continuing").  I live in a remote area and was not able to buy a replacement cyan cartridge, so I read on a hack on the Internet, that was to fool the printer into thinking that the cyan cartridge remained inside ink (just basically restricting the measure gauge so that it read the Full cartridge).  I did it because I had a print document that requires only the black ink, so I knew that this wouldn't be a problem.  Then life happened and I completely forgot my little shortcut, and my wife printed a number of color photos.  I finally had time to cartridges, and I now understood that cyan is not print at all.  I have now opened up the printer and realize that the cyan ink tube is full of bubbles...

  I tried to fix this by printing A4 pages that are for the most part, cyan, but without success.  I even tried to put pressure on the ink cartridge cyan in order to flood the cyan ink tubes - also, it does not work.  I read somewhere that there is a way to actually get some printers to pump tubes with ink, is - it possible on the Officejet Pro 8500 has more?

  Of course, I did all the tools that are pre-set to the arsenal of 8500, but still no luck.

  I know I'm in the situation I am purely because I don't use the device as intended, and people that no one is to blame but me, but I'd appreciate any help you could provide.

  Thank you

  John

  John, looks like you have a problem with the ink system. Unfortunately, what it looks like happened here, is that your ink nozzle, tubing and probably-print head have put dry for cyan. Work around is pretty neat, but it really is only recommended for a very temporary solution. If the ink has dried in the piping, but elsewhere in the printer then can be a decent chance that this printer will be not likely reprint the cyan. You can try to run the automatic cleaning process (up to three times I would say) via the Tools menu in the Setup (the wrench).

  In addition, I'm not sure that this will be a question that has a simple resolution. Apologies, John.

  PS Hope you have a wonderful day and that your time is as beautiful as she is here!

• HP officejet pro 8600 - cannot print from my macbook pro

  We just bought a new HP officejet pro 8600 but for some reason, we cannot get my macbook pro to print on it. My mac says it is connected to it. It is listed in the printer only and all the settings look fine, but when I send a document to the printer, it will not be printed. He did print the first day we had (a week ago) but it stopped and we cannot figure out what to do. My daughter's PC will be printed, as well as the pc of my husband. It is the first time that I had problems printing to a hp from my mac. Any thoughts?

  I had my Officejet Pro 8600 about six months.  Recently, I had the same problem.  It continues to print from my Windows computers but not the Mac.   Labour goes into the impression that it is place on a wedge.  I tried many fixes, including the removal of the printer and reinstall.  Usually removing and reinstalling it will fix for a while, but now, even that does not work.  In my view, that the permanent solution is to buy another printer.

• Windows 8 cannot print from Word 2013

  When I try to print Word 2013 (Windows 8) that it exports just the document to OneNote and it does not print.

  When I try to print the document from OneNote, it creates just a new page in OneNote.
  Does it actually matter where I try to print from.  Each time, it exports only the text to OneNote and nothing prints.

  When you install OneNote (as part of office or as a standalone) it sets itself as the default printer.

  Go to devices and printers and set your real default printer.

• 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.

  Two PC can print wireless with no problems.  Macs are struggling, but it's different for each:

  Mac #1-OSX 10.8.5) printer installed via the installation CD.  He worked for a week, then stopped working today.    I sent a print job, and he was sitting in the buffer always 0%.  He never gave an error, but it has never printed.  Then I uninstalled the printer and added via system preferences and got the message "Unable to communicate with the printer right now" while the installation failed.   However, I am able to navigate to the IP address of the printer from a browser and see all the parameters.  I am also able to scan FROM the printer to this computer, then it is certainly communication he...

  2 mac - OSX 10.7.5) installed system Prefreences without problem printer.  Sent a print error-free job, but he blocked indefinitely in the buffer to 100% and never printed.   This Mac was able to print via USB.

  We are on the same wireless network.  The printer is configured with a fixed IP address.  Any ideas?

  Hello whatkatiedoes,

  I understand your frustration I want to gather some information so that we can begin troubleshooting.

  Did you update firmware for your OfficeJet 8600 Premium? If this isn't the case, I wish that install you this, it was released 23/7/2013 click here to update the firmware.

  Also we will go forward and restore the default network on your printer, go to the front panel of your printer and follow the steps below:

  Menu Configuration > Tools > restore default settings

  Now that we have a 8600 OfficeJet updated premium and have restored the default values. I want to you now to connect wireless using the Wireless, Setup Assistant which is also found in the front panel of your printer. Steps listed below:

  Menu Setup > network > Wireless Setup Wizard

  Once these steps have been performed, you can now try to re run the installation software. Here's the direct link for HP Officejet Pro Full Feature software and driver - Mac OS X 10.8. Please let me know the result and if it was successful, I hope to hear from you soon.

  Thank you

• CS5 - cannot print single pages in tiled file - please help?

  When I go to print a document I have more to choose a range of pages to print in my files in mosaic.  "All" is selected and the "range" opion will not select.  I don't do anything different from what I did with the CS3 version.  Using Creative Suite with window 7.

  Help, please!

  Thank you

  Sometimes looks like they did it very hard when they actually made it easier for you.

  It's right in front of you, but because you don't expect it to be there you see.

  Screen Tile > tile range so simple!

  

  It numbers your tiles for you well and does not give you weird shape tiles. What do you think of this new feature?

  

• Scanning from feeder OfficeJet Pro 8500 has

  I tried to search several times but I can't seem to find anything that addresses this specifically.

  I'm trying to scan multiple pages on my OfficeJet 8500 a on a machine running XP.  I deally I would that they in a single file, but if not possible I can deal with that later.

  However, unlike other scanners XP, I used, there no option to select the tray as the source.  This doesn't seem to work when you try to scan directly from the printer.  Instead, I get a blank image scanned from the glass, and no paper is fed.  Documents (a stack of 9 or more) * are * inserted in the charger as they should be, as much as they are when I copy successfully all the time.

  Please tell me it is possible to do - it seems like a no-brainer.  What I am doing wrong?

  Well, it works now.  Don't know what I did differently, but there you go.

• Printing error HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless - said to replace the 940 black cartridge but I.

  I can't print my screen says replace 940 black basket.   I replaced it and the error will not go away.  I tried the power switch off and clean the print heads, but I get the same message and could not print or clean the heads.   Any suggestions before I have another new try/waste carriage?   Thank you.

  Please do not take into account.  In fact, I misunderstood the message of the screen that would replace the yellow cart.

• Print on my OfficeJet Pro 8500 has more ceased altogether

  My printer has suddenly stopped working for everyone.  I set it up to use wireless connectivity.  It was working fine Friday, but suddenly ceased to work for everyone.  The only way to print anything this either all must present something to the queue and the PC.  It's completely stupid and of course incredibly annoying.  I printed a test page; works very well.  I downloaded and installed printing HP and Scan Doctor 2.0, he ran and that concerned, all is well.  I turned off the printer and turned it back, and that did not help at all

  What's wrong?  Why it has stopped working?  Is it normal to just HP printers stop working suddenly?  Should I give up and buy all the products HP at all, because this kind of thing has happened with every HP printer I've ever owned.

  You want to support.  They want to run tests (or you have to do) on your printer, before they give you a new.
