HP Officejet 6600

I have a HP Officejet 6600. I'm away for 3 to 4 months each winter. What are the advantages and disadvantages of letting the printer on and connected vs turn it off and cutting power? Also, it is based to leave the printer on and assistance service of HP ePrint for printing remote messages? If so, what should be the frequency of the messages?

Thank you

Wilfred

Hello

It is advisable to switch off the printer if it is not used for a long time. But since those days printer are (mostly) ePrint enabled, they can be left switched on.

The printer would print documents / photos then it is connected to the internet. As soon as the Internet disconnects the printer would stop printing (0r until the documents to the printer are consumed).

Since you're here, I've had for 3-4 months, I suggest you power off the printer by pressing the key ON. If the printer is inactive, then unplug the power cord from the back of the printer.

    Hi @TallPaul1,

    Since you seem to be able to print from other programs, I think that the question has something to do with Adobe. Maybe you will find the following article, I found the site useful adobe: PDF print troubleshoot | Acrobat, Reader.

    If the problem persists, it may be preferable for you to reach the Adobe community.

    Good luck! If there is anything else I can hep you let me know. Please go on the HP Forums!

  • Starting with HP Officejet 6600 and cannot change the page size

    Hello

    You have just purchased HP Officejet 6600 all-in-in-one and found that there not a duplexer, which is very very annoying! However, if I can just change the paper size, I can live with the disadvantage to the paper.  I have a Word document that is the flyer for our company, a document A4 which must be printed on A5 paper.  Old Canon printer I could make the A4 as an A5, but now I can't.

    Hope I explained the correct problem and the TIA for help.

    In my copy of Word 2007, I am able to evolve in A5 paper.

    Be sure to select A5 in 6600 preferences.

  • OfficeJet 6600 connects to the wifi network

    Hello

    I bought an Officejet 6600 and effortlessly connected to my wifi network, print and scan for a day. And there are two days that he stopped conntecting to the wifi network. In the meantime, our router turned off and turned back on. That's the only difference.

    First of all, the printer would not even detect the wifi network. I solved that by changing the configuration of the router (Cisco 3925 EPC) and passed under the Setup wireless "Wi - Fi protected setup" to "manual". I can now see the network on the printer again.

    But after that I've selected my wifi network and enter the WPA password, the printer tells me that the network connection is impossible. I printed a page of diagnosis, which told me that the problem is perhaps related to the MAC filter. But I have no MAC filters. I also tried to pass of WPA/WPA2 to WPA only, but that doesn't change anything.

    I also tried to set the mode wireless via the USB cable, but no avail. Everything seems to work, until the moment when he tries to connect to the wifi (screen with 'configuration' with the large antenna and pulses of radio waves).

    Should I give up and bring it to the store? I'm getting desperate!

    Thanks for your help in advance,

    Raphaël

    OK, to make sure I understand - the printer connects effectively to your wireless network, and well it works for a while once the printer goes to sleep, your computer or router may not wake.

    If this is the case there are a few things that we can try:

    1. in the settings of your router, make sure that the multicast is enabled.

    2. set the 2.4 GHz router to 11 channels.  I know it sounds weird, but please try.

    3. set an IP address of the printer:

    -Print a the front of the printer Network Setup Page. Note the IP address of the printer.
    -Enter the IP address in a browser to reveal the internal settings of the printer.
    -Choose the network tab, then wireless along the left side, then on the IPv4 tab.
    -On this screen, you want to set a manual IP address. You must assign an IP address outside the range that the router sets automatically (called the DHCP range). If you do not know the range, change the last set of numbers (those after the last '.') 250
    -Apply the subnet 255.255.255.0 (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
    -Enter the IP of your router (on the Page of the Network Config) for the gateway.
    -Enter for the first DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for second DNS. It's Google DNS. You can choose a different external DNS if you wish.
    -Click 'apply '.

    Now, stop the router and printer, start the router, wait, and then start printing.

    Hey @dburbage,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.  I understand that you are unable to print from the iPad using your HP Officejet 6600 e-all-in-one printer.  I want to help you with this and can have steps that you need to restore this functionality.  What you describe, it seems that you use AirPrint.  I will answer my advice for this type of installation, but if you use ePrint, please let me know and I'll give the information you need.

    You have confirmed that your printer is connected to your wireless network?  Button on the front panel of the printer the wireless icon and make sure that it is connected and displays an IP address.  If this isn't the case, run the Wireless Setup Wizard to restore connectivity.  If you are connected, powercycle your equipment as explained below:

    1. Unplug your modem/router
    2. Turn off your printer and your iPad
    3. Wait 60 seconds
    4. Plug in your modem/router back in and wait that he reconnect to internet
    5. Turn on your printer and once it starts up as normal, confirm that it is still connected to your wireless network
    6. Turn on your iPad

    After completing these steps, you are able to connect your printer with the iPad?  Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post.

  • OfficeJet 6600: Failure of printer, no error code

    Down printer, no code error.  Tried troubleshooting tips; Reset no has not worked and cleaning of copper on the ink cartridges, not working anymore.   Printer 3 years so out of warranty.   This printer is in a holiday home and I remove the cartridges in the winter.  Is this a problem?  Is there anything else to try, or do I need a new printer?  Tried to submit the form to contact HP 3 times for nothing helped... the site could use improvement.

    Remove the cartridges to store the printer for the winter is a major problem - which cause the printhead not replaceable to dry out, leaving probably clogged ink residues.  In the future if you have a printer with separate ink supply and print (like the Officejet 6600) heads the cartrdiges never be removed from the printer for more than thirty minutes at a time, and the printer should never be put off with the cartridges removed.

    The following may help recover the printhead (maybe 10% chance).  Turn on the printer, remove the cartrdiges impression and drip hot water on the screens on the print head which would connect the ink cartridges.  I put about 3 to 5 drops in each screen.  Let it sit for a few minutes, then replace the ink cartridges.  Run three cleaning cycles in quick succession the façade or the Toolbox.  Is there an ink at all on the page?  If yes let the printer sit overnight, then repeat the process.

  • OfficeJet 6600: officejet 6600 will not be installed

    I have a computer that is running Windows 7 (updated) with a 6600 Officejet attached via the USB port. It worked fine for 3 years, BUT I had to reinstall the printer 7 times in the last 2 weeks. When I turn off the computer at night and turn on the next morning and I begin to print something, I get "no printer installed." It SEEMS to make no difference if I turn the printer off or leave it on when I shut down the computer.

    Any ideas?
