HP 8600 slow printing of diagrams and color photos

I have a desktop HP 8600 printer pro jet and it's very very slow at the color print and diagrams (colored or not). I aligned the printer and clean the print head but it is still slow and I mean slow 2 5 minutes from printing a page.

I also used the HP scanner/doctor and everything is fine with the printer is brand new.

Help, please!

Hello there bamitssam21,

Welcome to the Forums

I saw your slow printing problem you are having with your Officejet Pro 8600. I noticed that you have ran a print head cleaning, alignment and print and Scan Dr. indicates no error. There could be several reasons why slow printing occurs, the power of the printer for the program you are printing from (if the problem happens only in a single program) or even the pilot.

I'll give you some suggestions to try and I hope that we can get rid of this problem!

First, reset the printer and when you plug it back, just please make sure it is plugged directly into the wall socket. Avoid bars, surge protectors, nothing more.

This may sound weird, but sometimes it really helps and solves the problem.

Then, update the printers firmware: get the latest Firmware and product updates

If the problem persists, follow this guide for printing slow: slow printing

Good luck! I would like to know how to get you out, and if so, I'll help you gladly further.

Thank you

    Hey Matt,

    It is in fact due to a default setting in Internet Explorer to not print the colors of background on Web pages. To change it, simply go to the configuration Page screen (on IE9, you click on the gear icon, then print > Page Setup) and select the option to print background images and colors. After doing this, the printed report must contain the colors you see on your screen.

  • Black and white photos at the start of printing OK then turns reddish, changed the cartridges, same problem

    HP Photosmart C4600 all in one printer, HP, Windows7 desktop. When I try to print copies of old black & white photos, on premium Matt paper or any document (I tried all), with settings for grayscale or black and white, printing starts OK (black & white) and soon begins to print with a reddish tint. I changed the cartridge back & White 3 times with the HP cartridges and the problem persists. I cleaned my print heads, the problem persists, I tried various other parameters without result. Finally, I gave up and I went back to my old Epson 15 year for problem free Photo printing. How can this problem be fixed? Thank you!

    When you print graphics color cartridges are usually used to print even black and white.  In addition, when printing on the paper color photo is always used as the pigmented black ink cartridge is not compatible with the photo paper.

    It would seem that your color ink runs out.  See the troubleshooting steps described in this page.  Most likely, you need a fresh color cartridge.

  • Pro 8600 first page prints fast rest slow printing

    Hello!

    If I print 25feuilles he quickly made them, but after a few batches of 25 the first page of all the 25 print quickly and then the next 24 all go to the same speed and much more slowly.

    I print leaves page in color in draft mode (Flyers).

    Is there a known problem of slowdown after awhile?

    I restarted the printer and it has not changed things.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you!

    Hi again. What you have explained to me now is logical. If you do a job of this size, the printer will slow down due to the fact that it heats up. All if this printer is a desktop printer, if you want to make the jobs of this size then maybe a LaserJet printer would have been a better fit for your office. They are a little more expensive, but they manage a workload which you seem to do. The 8600 is a great printer, but it will slow down if this size print job is started on it. I'm sorry for the inconvenience and sometimes things get missed when troubleshooting on the text.

    If you have any other questions about the 8600, please do not hesitate to write again.

    Thanks again for your time.

  • Officepro HP 8600: How to bypass the color cartridges empty on my HP Officepro 8600 to print only in black

    I am wanting to print Grayscale / black only, still does not allow me to print because I have empty color cartridges.

    How can I get around this?

    I tried changing the settings

    Thank you very much

    While printing in black is only an option when the color is low, it is blocked once a cartridge is exhausted.  You will need to replace the depleted cartridge. Page 94 of the said the manual here:

    Printing in black ink or color only

    For regular use, this product does not print using only the black ink cartridge when the color cartridges are out of ink. However, your printer is designed to allow you to print as long as possible when your cartridges are starting to run out of ink.

    When there is enough ink in the print head, printer will offer you the use of black ink only when one or more cartridges color is out of ink and color ink usage only when the black cartridge is out of ink.

    • The amount that you can print using the black or color ink is only limited, so the available spare ink cartridges when printing in black ink or color only.

    • When it is no longer sufficient ink printing, you will get a message from one or more cartridges are exhausted, and you need to replace the depleted cartridges before you resume printing.

    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 8040 a Officejet is an example.
    • Other printers have separate replaceable printheads and inks.  An example would be the printer Officejet Pro 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.

  • Vista and Color Laserjet 5 M reprints all when the printer is turned on?

    Vist and Color Laserjet 5 M reprints all when the printer is turned on?

    It is a new one on me. I installed the printer with a barrette SIMM Postscript so it would work even at all under Vista and now it prints well but insists on the fact that I have all re - print he has never seen a reason any whenever I turn the printer to print something again.

    XP he has never done that, but I've always had the document cannot print the error that I ignored as he did print correctly.

    Google has not really revealed anything?

    ?? Type response level 1 I was looking for... These printers are a full restart, test of memory and when it is off.

    But I think I solved it, spent some time on google and there was a suggestion on the spooler in vista, was something like clear keep printed documents or print spooling first, I went also to start printing after the last page. Who took care of a lot of it somehow. Not sure why the generic installation program would need to be changed here. Possible I did for me somehow when I was trying to get the thing to work with the PCL driver too.

    Then I noticed that whenever I turned on the printer it is printing a page of demo postscript, for some reason any, it is enabled by default in the SIMM option. Turn power off and now its not wasting so much paper now.

    So two things to look for in the computer and the printer.

  • Oficejet Pro 8600 Plus seems to disconnect and docs does not print unless it is turned off then

    I have a Dell with Windows 7 dekstop. The HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus is connected wireless and worked well during the past year. The only change of note is that an old belkin wireless router died and was replaced by a new Belkin wireless router which seems to work very well. My Office recognizes the printer and my printer recognizes the router on my desktop

    The problem is that it seems my 8600 turns standby or offline after a certain period of time of inactivity and when print jobs are sent to the printer either by OIOS or by different laptops in the House, nothing prints. My desktop printer that actually tell me job is printing... then it says error, printer offline. However, printer is on and says that it has strong wireless internet at any time

    A single difficulty has been to put off the printer (via button on / off) turn it and then turn it back on and saved then print print jobs. In addition, the new print jobs launched fly right by fine. Then the next day, the problem repeats

    I just unplug printer a surge protector and moved to a wall outlet directly by something else that I read. I use kapersky security system causing no problem before the beginning of the question.

    I have disabled the option to turn on printer for some time and stop at another time to remove this as a cause.

    Dell and Belkin two saying its a HP problem since the printing run after the printer out of power, and then power on, but I am running out of ideas to try to stop.

    These settings are to set up your wireless printer to stay connected to your router, wireless devices stay better connected and makes your router secure and hack proof.

    1. define a static in the printer IP address (click here) out of the DHCP of the router Beach (check your manual).

    It is for Linksys routers, but can be used for all routers. Check your DHCP range and change this

    first of all if necessary. More Help Wireless Printing is here (Windows solution 4, static IP).

    2. check the printer "Auto Off" is disabled.  Use the built-in webserver (EWS) by going in the

    the printers IP address in your browser's address bar, click Settings tab/Auto Off. Or use the printer

    Assistant, printer Home Page (EWS).

    3. If the printer supports and has IPv6 enabled, disable the IPv6 option in the printer.

    4. If necessary and you have assigned a static IP address, try using 8.8.8.8 for the preferred DNS server and

    8.8.4.4 at the level of the auxiliary DNS server.

    In the router: (refer to the manual of your router for more information)

    5. use a wireless channel fixed as 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest.

    6 choose the router to 20 Mhz only, or 145Mbps router function.

    7. always use WPA2-AES encryption (personal), but you can try the "mixed" mode

    8 disable the WPS and never use it and disable the UPnP for the security of routers. No one can hack into your

    now the system and helps with wireless connectivity (if you want to know why, research on the web).

    9. If you have a router dual band (2.4 Ghz and 5.0 Ghz bands), make sure you the SSID is NOT the same.

    they must be different for all the bands, even for networks without comments.

    10 broadcast SSID must be enabled.

    11. save all settings. Food at the same time, wait 2 minutes.  Power on router wait 2 minutes.

    12 turn on the printer and check that it reconnects to the router.

    Windows 7/8/8.1 is discovered the system on or off?

  • using the color laserjet 3600n - I want to print in black and white, but it prints black and white negative. * beep *.

    using the color laserjet 3600n - I want to print in black and white, but it prints black and white negative.  * beep *.

    I was able to recreate what you see.   I managed to work around it by installing a different driver that is also supposed to be compatible with the CLJ3600.

    Please consider trying this as a possible solution:

    (1) uninstall the driver CLJ3600 by opening printers and fax machines, driver selection and right-click on it and select Delete.  Once it is removed, right-click on an empty space in the windows printers and faxes and select Server properties.  Click the driver tab, click the CLJ3600 and then click on remove.

    One when you're done, restart, and then install the CLJ3500 driver.  This is a previous version of the driver that has been implemented for the CLJ3600 and is compatible with the CLJ3600.

    After installation, try printing again.

    The output I have indicates it will print is more negative.  Please let me know if you have success.

    One caveat about this solution.  The Color LaserJet 3500 doesn't support duplex.  Of workaround only works for two printing on the package of basic or the Color LaserJet 3600 N.

  • JPG of Windows Photo Gallery will not be printed in black and white / grayscale, than by the color.

    All of a sudden, for some reason unknown to me, my mon imprimante printer does not print images JPG from Windows Photo Gallery black and white or grayscale.

    Hi Ulap,

    A. from when what happens?

    B. you are able to print the other black and white file formats?

    First of all, check if you are able to print black and white photo viewer.

    Then, run an auditor of system files (sfc scan) on your computer in order to replace the files corrupted on your computer.

    1. click on the Start button

    2. on the Start Menu, click all programs followed by accessories

    3. in the menu accessories, right-click on command line option

    4. in the drop-down menu that appears, click the "Run as Administrator" option

    5 If you have the enabled User Account Control (UAC) you will be asked to consent to the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.

    6. in the command prompt window, type: sfc/scannow then press enter

    7. a message is displayed to indicate that "the analysis of the system will start.

    8. be patient because the analysis may take some time

    9. If all the files need replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Vista DVD for this process to continue

    10. If all goes although you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.

    11. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window reboot the computer and check if the problem persists.

  • in windows photo gallery, print color in black and white photos

    Hello

    This happens usually if the print options or preferences are changed for your printer. To select print options, you must open the image you want to print. Most print options are located in the print dialog box, which you can access on the file menu in the program that you are using. The options that are available to you depend on the program and the printer you use.
     
    To access some options, you may need to click on the link 'Options' or 'Advanced Options' button or tab in the print dialog box. To learn more about the print options for a program, see the information for the program.
     
    Printing options are determined by your printer capabilities are called printing preferences and may include printing separation pages, color or image quality options and Staples. Like program options, printing preferences are displayed in the print dialog box. Look for the buttons labeled "Préférences" or "Properties". You can choose preferences each time you print a picture or preferences to default configuration to use for all the photos you send to a printer.
     
    Try these steps and check the result.
    Step 1: Set the default printing preferences.
    1. Click here to open Printers.
    2 right-click the printer you want to use, and then click Printing Preferences.
    3. Select the preferences you want to use as the default the next time you print to the printer, and then click OK.
     
    Step 2: Use print preview:
    To see what the print will look like before you print it, open the picture in Windows Photo Gallery that offers a preview before printing. Print preview is typically located on the file menu. You can choose the print in preview mode options and then print directly from the preview.
     
    To solve printer problems, download and run the Microsoft fix it and check the result.
