• HP Officejet Pro 8100: Get a copy of the driver inf or dpg file

  Is there a way to acquire the inf file or the file gpd of the driver for the HP OfficeJet Pro 8100 x 86 for Windows xp?  The only files I can find are installers .exe of self-help on the drivers/software from the HP page.  The instrument that I install the printer on does not allow executables to run for security reasons and for the life of me I can not find just the driver itself.

  Hello

  Run the setup executable and put an end to the installation screen.

  Click on start > run and type %temp%.

  Find the most recent file starting with 7z (for example 7z1234s) which is the installation from source, locate and use the Autorun.inf file in this folder.

  Print is not centered on the page. large left margin and missing letters on the right side of the page. The exact same txt printed on a different printer is perfectly centered. This printer is on a network with 3 different computers and this printer print offset any source.

  Sorry Ginny! Go to our website www.hp.com/go/support, select the green box on the left side of the page, then search for your printer model (in this case an Officejet Pro 8100).

  This will take you to a page to select your operating system, and then below it will be links to various downloads related to your printer for your operating system. Sect most mark next to "Firmware" and click on the link to be redirected to the download page.

  Download and run the file.

• How to connect the Officejet Pro 8100 printer to wireless network

  Bought a "nine" Officejet Pro 8100 and want to use via my wireless network. The CD supplied with the printer is obsolete. Updated Apple software but can't see how to connect the printer to the network. Getting Started Guide is no help on this issue. Searched for support without result pages. Utility HP does not provide a method to set up a wireless feature. Find all the instructions, I say first of all make sure that the printer is connected to the wireless network, and that's what I can't find out how. What I forget?

  Finally, I called HP hotline for help and was rescued. It turns out that Apple's software update software includes all the required components. The software from the HP Web site is no longer available. It's frustrating to see the Getting Started Guide refer frequently to the HP installation wizard and be unable to locate it. Once the wizard tech took control of my computer and installed the necessary software, it was a breeze!

  I also note that compose the support number to talk with a guy was rather brief: between 1 and 2 minutes, I recall. Although there was a menu of the phone, it was not a large (unlike the attempt labyrinthine and often circular to locate the online help).

  Insofar as HP knows the necessary software in not available via software update or directly from HP, wouldn't make sense to inform buyers, as well as how to access? At least do not place meaningless, useless on the Web site links that lead into oblivion and frustration!

  Although I did appreciate the journey, I finally arrive at my destination. Thanks to Aris, HP technician. You are exceptional!

• HP officejet pro 8100 not review or color printing.

  My 8100 Officejet Pro won't recognize color when you try to print from my pictures in Windows 8.1. I've done all the checks... ok of ink, grayscale printing is turned off, blackonly is disabled, deleted the program and resarted from scratch with disc supplied. The computer brand new from Chillblast and is very fast and up-to-date. All inks are new and full.

  It will print documents, pdf, etc, but I can't 'see' colors in my pictures, all the previews and print out black and white.

  The only thing is that I don't know what, if any, changes may be required in the part "Color management" Settings Advanced... any advice... Thank you.

  I just checked the download site pilot official HP and wireddrivers.com site and noticed that the number of driver for my printer Officejet Pro 8100 has changed!

  It was OJ8100_1321.exe... It is now OJ8100_1321 - 1.exe.

  I downloaded this driver and all is well in my world printer!

  I don't know if that was my question on this forum or my contacts a Microsoft technician, (which was useless and kept asking me to do things that I refused to do what I explained that I had already tried), but in any case, someone realized there is a software problem in the pilot and fixed.

  I will now post this as resolved to help someone else who search... Regards Kevin.

• More than a printer HP OfficeJet Pro 8100

  Hello

  I need to buy two printers wireless to use with an iPad.

  But the thing is: if I install TWO identical HP OfficeJet Pro 8100 under the same wifi network, how can I know that I want to print? In other words, my concern is that when I want to print a document using the iPad it will show two printers, but both with the name "HP OfficeJet Pro 8100". Having in mind that each printer is located away from each other in my house, I need to print under the right printer.

  Is it possible to change the name that appears on AirPrint so I can distinguish the two printers? Something like "Printer-Studio" and "printer-bedroom"? Or something that works somehow...

  Thank you.

  Pedrosacelso,

  It is possible to change the name of the printer, many customers buy more than one printer to a desktop environment and need to change the printer name to identify the printer.

  If you have problems with the above steps back on the support forums.

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

• OfficeJet Pro 8100: Lost my printer drivers (after a Windows 10 update)!

  Hello

  After the recent Windows 10 updates (one installed on Christmas day), I lost my (custom installed) to the printer drivers. No big deal I thought, ONLY MIcrosoft MOST inconvienience - I'll reinstall just them. But when I open the properties of the printer Panel, I found that ALL ADVANCED TAB where I needed access to reinstall drivers is now GRAY and completely unaccessable! I not only lost my custom drivers, I also lost my second tray of the printer (installed optionally) capacity! YES, MERRY CHRISTMAS!

  Now I need help to reinstall (they gave me specific instructions for installation, so I won't bumble worse trying to install them differently (as a regular driver) without confirmation first.)
  This is a PERFECT EXAMPLE of why we should be allowed to choose for outselves when and what updates to install on OUR computer! I checked the Windows Update history and there is NOTHING there that would strike even he would have had to change printer drivers, nor I anthing that would affect them being changed (for example, allowing control HP from my PC to automatically updated drivers), but clearly something changted them.

  What I HAD... I use a printer Officejet Pro 8100 bought two years ago February next with the option second tray of the installed printer. I also use Officejet 8600 drivers in order to be able to print my graphic files properly (these drivers were recommended on this forum once I have posted having problems printing after the first installation. These drivers worked PERFECTLY in all of my PC (running Windows XP, 8.1, and 10), but now with the missing options, everytting is printing through the upper status bar (where I have a THICK paper). I don't have the ability to choose which try to print (Tray 1 or 2), and I need to change paper whenever I want to print on different paper (I always had a THICK paper on top (Tray 1) and plain paper in the lower part (tray 2) because it would not print thick paper from the tray at the bottom.

  To use the 8600 drivers, I was given specific instructions (on this forum) on install in the section "NEW DRIVER" of the ADVANCED TAB in the properties of the printer. Now that I don't have access to this tab, I need to know if there is a way to access new (my preferred method) OR another way to install (for example just install them as if I would install the printer (8600))?

  It's free enough explainatory tab FULL area is GRAYED OUT, but in case there are any doubts, I have attached is a screenshot showing what he looks like.

  I apprecate any help you could offer.

  Kind regards... Chugbug

  

  OK, now it's really WEID!

  I tried during the last 24 hours to get to the Panel in question, including the restart of Windows at least half a dozen times without success.  But now tonight after that I dug around the different tabs, once again, INCLUDING clicking on through security and permissions panels (but not to make changes) AND for posting my question here, all in the advanced Panel was suddenly accessible once more!

  I reinstalled my 8600 drivers again, then reset my printing (default) preferences (paper 2 / plain plateau), and everything is good again (kumbaya...)!

  Good thing, I took a screenshot of it (grey) or I can't believe myself!

  Happy holidays!  Chugbug

• HP Officejet Pro 8100: HP Officejet 8100 N811a - network connection is not possible

  Hello community,

  I have a pretty standard network with 3 points of access, WPA - PSK authentication, TKIP/AES encryption, running on channels 1-11. I made the MAC filtering is off and DHCP is on.

  The printer connects to the network, or via the software of HP Doc or the EWS settings.

  It's however possible to connect the city nearby networks so I must be overlooking something.

  After that under the HP Doc and he's trying to set up the printer I just get an exemption from the unknown error.

  The printer prints fine when connected by cable.

  The Network Configuration after the eroor HP Doc said

  Wireless on : Pass
  Wireless Working : Pass
  
  Connected : Not Run
  
  Network Name Found : Pass
  
  Printer Settings Consistent : Not Run
  No Filtering : Not Run
  Channel : Not Run
  Security : FAIL
  
  And in the Configuration it lists the SSID but IP Adress states : not applicable
  

  Ideas?

  Hi @NK10,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

  I see that you are unable to connect wirelessly with your HP Officejet Pro 8100 printer. I will definitely do my best to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and mark "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.

  I see that you mentioned that you have "3 APs, authentication WPA - PSK, AES/TKIP encryption, running on channels 1-11 I made sure MAC filtering is off and DHCP is on. »

  First, I'll assume means AP access point.

  • WPA2-PSK (TKIP) WPA2-PSK (AES) and WPA2-PSK (TKIP/AES) are all different encryption options. Which one do you use?
  • Do not use more than one type of encryption at the same time, what access points help.
  • The router is connected to one channel at a time, not 1 to 11. What channel are you on?
  • DHCP should only be enabled on the router and disabled on each access point.

  Looks like the access points are configured incorrectly. They should have the same type of encryption and be on the same channel as the router. If the printer works well on the wired connection the wireless network configuration is causing a conflict.

  Tips for a successful wireless connection:

  • Using a unique network name (SSID).
  • Make sure you have 802.11 g active.
  • The printer cannot connect to the 5.0 GHz network. If you have a double router broadband, the 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz network names are not the same. Rename the 5.0 GHz network.
  • Don't hide your SSID (network name).
  • Change the router channel fixed wireless as the 1, 6 or 11, who less than traffic.
  • You have a switch?
  • Do not use a network of comments (SSID).
  • Disable UPnP on the router.
  • Set the router to 20 Mhz only, or 145Mbps depending on the router.
  • Update the firmware on the router.

  For troubleshooting purposes, follow these steps:

  1. Disable all access points.
  2. Connect the printer to the router wirelessly.
  3. Test print.

  If the printer works fine wireless connected access points, you must reconfigure the access points correctly. HP does not support the networks with access point, additional router or switch, etc. The complexity of the configuration.

  For more information, see print wireless Center.

  Please reply to this message with the result of your troubleshooting. I can't wait to hear strings attached good luck!

• OfficeJet Pro 8100: install officejet pro8100

  I try to install the software for this printer on a Vista Home Premium 64 bit computer.  The installation fails saying it cannot install the file HPDiscoPM5B12.DLL.  It sends the error to HP, but comes up saying that it does not find a solution.  No idea how to get the full software installation package?

  This printer is a HP replacement for a Pro Offcejet 8000 defective.  I have the DVD of the old printer and he ran with it.  Apparntly, he had the OfficeJet Pro 8100 on it software and installed it without any error message.  So far, it seems to work well.  I have to think that there is something wrong with the 8100 to the HP Web site software.

• HP Utlilty for Officejet Pro 8100

  I have a desktop Mac with the latest V10.9 OS. I bought an Officejet Pro 8100. It came with a CD with the HP software. When I put the disc in to read, he was rejected because he needed OS 10.7 V.

The instructions to set up wireless said that the I need to go in the HP folder in applications and run the HP utility.  There is no file HP. I can't find the HP utility in HP web site. How to fix my printer to go wireless.

  Thank you

  Hello

  As a complete software functionality is not currently available to 10.9, it is impossible to set up the connection through the HP software.

  Temporarily connect the Paul to your Mac with an Ethernet cable.

  Open Safari and then open the menu Hello

  Note: If it is not displayed, click Safary > preferences. Open the Advanced tab and failure of the box next the two options bodice and click OK.

  Hello a click in the main menu, open the printer EWS by double clicking on the name of the printer.

  Open the network tab, under wireless, follow the Wireless Setup Wizard and follow the steps to connect to your network.

  Once you disconnect the Ethernet cable, go to Printers & Scanners and add the printer by clicking on the sign more.

  Kind regards

• OfficeJet Pro 8100: Utilities application does not start, Officejet Pro 8100

  The printer is working fine, except for the occasional streaks. The problem is when I try to access the cleaning utilities, etc.. When I try to open the app, I see a flash hourglass for a second or two, and it goes no further. I don't see any new task in the windows Task Manager. I completely uninstalled the printer and reinstalled, no luck. Any thoughts?

• Can I print in black and white with an empty cartridge on a printer HP Officejet Pro 8100?

  Only the cyan cartridge is empty, all the other 3 cartridges are fine. I ordered the cartridge cyan online but I need to print important documents today. The power button blinks when I try to print.

  I do not understand, black and white must not use a color cartridge to print.

  Is there something so I can print before receiving the cyan cartridge?

  The printer Officejet Pro 8100 has the same print mechanism like its counterpart of all-in-One Officejet Pro 8600.  This printer has a print head mechanism that contains 4 individual cartridges: CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black).

  It will replace the cartridge if the unit provides a message from one of the colors being empty, until the unit will resume printing.  This is a retention mechanism to avoid the product from damage.  I hope this helps.

• OfficeJet Pro 8100 - no Auto power on via USB?

  I just bought an OfficeJet Pro 8100 to my wife. It is connected via USB to a computer running Linux (Xubuntu 12.04).

  So far, it works fine, but it doesn't automatically when a print job is sent to it (which made our previous HP printers). Is there a way to activate this feature?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  The auto power off feature is a new feature of the latest models, which completely deactivates the product (as its name) and it must be enabled to work.

  You can disable the auto power off feature, the device still will enter energy saving mode and return to normal mode on any work is done.

  You can find more information about possible setting below:
