• HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 is printing without my consent

  This morning I found that my OfficeJet Pro 8500 has something printed during the night without my consent.  All our computers had been arrested or locked, and my wife and I slept.  This is the document that he had printed:

  HP ePrint mobile printing

  Get it started...

  1. go to eprintcenter.com

  2 sign up and enter your code to printer:

  3 customize the email address of your printer, add applications and more

  It's something that HP is now pushing to printers, or is it something that the print driver on the system Windows 7 to my wife can have printed?  I looked online and I didn't know any information about it.

  Thank you!

  Hi Rich, page you describe in your post is the information page that is displayed when the Web Services are enabled on the printer. This is done from the panel display front end printers and is not something that HP can push to customers as the use of the service requires the acceptance of the terms & conditions by the user. I am at a loss to explain how this page could be printed unless someone Vienna activate Web Services to display on the front panel of the printer. The reason that he printed late may be due to a delay in communication between the printer and the ePrint service. To connect with HP ePrint service the printer must have been connected to the internet via a connection, either wired or wireless. If the printer is set up to your home network wireless PC installed on the printer shouldn't be turned on so that the printer to work.

  This is a link to a short video illustrating the ePrint on the AiO Pro Officejet 8500 installation.  This link contains information about the ePrint in general getting started with ePrint service

  To disable the Web services on the printer, press the icon on the display ePrint , and then select settings and delete Web Services. Run this command when your printer is connected to the Internet.

  I hope this information is useful for you.

• HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 Premium will not send fax from computer with Windows 8

  My printer was working fine on Win XP and I could fax directly from the printer or the computer.  I installed 8 32-bit Windows (I am under an older system that works very well for everything that I use it for - thank you very much) and downloaded the latest driver for HP large & software for Win 8 32-bit.  Everything works perfectly, except for the computer fax.

  If I run the test of the printer fax, the fax test PASSES.  If I run the test fax from the computer, the fax test PASSES.

  If I put documents into the feeder of the printer and use the features of fax printer, it Fax beautifully.

  It's only when I fax from the computer, the screen appears with the status of the queue, then state turns to cancelled each time.

  He has always worked on Win XP.

  The FAX and FAX printer driver for the printer-FAX appeared in Control Panel automatically when I installed the HP drivers/software update.  All the properties of the FAX printer seem good.

  I tried a usb connection and a connection of network ethernet, with the same results.

  Printing and scanning all work fine.  I really like this printer and I love it even more if I could figure out how to get by fax a document from the computer.

  When I say fax from the computer, I mean opening a document saying print, select Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910, filling the page of information by fax, selecting my cover page options and press send fax.  Everything like I used to do it before I upgraded to Win 8.  When I hit send fax, it is when I get the popup that fax is in queue, then it goes to cancelled.  No error codes are displayed, no clue as to why, no nothing.  If I print the document and put it in the printer tray I can using display printer fax without problem.

  Very weird.

  Well, I spoke with some of the engineers, and they suggested next steps. First of all, here's a thread on a forum of MS on the removal of an alternate driver.

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc730875.aspx

  Another thing to note is that in Win8, you can easily access the command prompt by pressing the windows key and typing "command prompt".

  In addition, I will PM you walk a few others on the removal of the remains of the software from the back-end of your PC. To be sure, you will need TO follow these instructions to the letter.

  Do these two things and let me know what happens after the installation of the printer again since the direct download link I already provided above.

  Let me know and have a great day!

• Cannot fax Officejet Pro 8500 A909g; was recently sold by Verizon to switch to FIOS digital telephony

  Hello

  Recently switched to FIOS digital voice service. I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g. Y at - it a patch or other difficulty that I can use to send a fax? Receives errors in communication since going digital.

  Thank you

  Michael

  Fax is STILL an analog service, he may be able to work for DSL or VOIP, but it is never a guarantee. Unfortunately, there are no fixes, updated or newer models that will change this.

  You can try to contact Verizon to see if they have filters or suggestions, but it can never work with a digital line.

  I know it's frustrating, but there is not much that can be done. You can watch are E-fax to the square or a secondary analog line.

• Fax on HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 Win8

  I am trying to send files from my PC (with Win8) through my HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 All - In - One.

  The manual says to choose the option to fax in 'print '. There is no option.

  No one knows what drivers or software to install to get it to work? I can scan and print but not fax.

  I downloaded and installed the latest drivers and firmware on HP site but nothing new appears in the print options.

  Thank you

  Hello @KentHP and welcome to the Forums of HP, I hope you enjoy your experience!

  I see that you are looking for in your computer's fax options.  I would like to help.

  It appears that there may have been a recent software update.

  I would say uninstalling the software of the printer.

  Once it is uninstalled, I suggest you put your system in clean boot mode in the configuration of Microsoft.  You can do this by following this document: How to perform a clean boot in Windows.

  Once the computer is in clean boot mode, I would suggest to reinstall the HP printer install wizard for Windows.

  Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

• Just save - unwritten - digital fax on OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909g

  I have the HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909g. I have the HP Fax in Digital Mode defined so that incoming faxes are saved on the network folder. Currently, when a fax arrives, it prints the fax and stores a PDF version of the fax in the network share. I don't want it to do both. Just save. Do not print.

  Is there a framework where we can prevent printing to save on paper (and ink)? I'd rather just browse my incoming faxes into PDF and only those that I really need to print. I like the option to turn off printing of incoming faxes and just store them on the network share.

  I did... took a while, but it's very simple, then it worked. All what you need to do is:-

  1 using the screen on the printer

  2. press on the key (top, middle of the screen)

  3. press on the basic Fax Setup

  4. digital fax

  5 fax print

  6. and finally click on off

  THEY're as simple as that. I was looking through the settings for centuries until I stumbbled on it. The hardest part about this process for me was getting through my exchange server... quite the task.

• HP Officejet Pro 8500 will not send or receive faxes

• OfficeJet Pro 8500 manually change the number of rings for fax operation

  I have a new machine which has a minimum of 6 rings before it works. My Officejet Pro 8500 has a max of 6 rings before the fax works. If the fax machine starts as the answering machine trying to record a message. It is a disaster.

  How can I maually change the printer to recognize fax obligations to 7 rings or more instead of 6?

  concerning

  Barry

  Good explanation.  The answering machine and the printer do not coordinate what to do when a call comes in.

  There is not a way to change the setting in the printer for more than 6 rings, but in my view, there is a solution to your problem.  Line 1 on the printer port is for connecting to the wall outlet you mentioned.  The port of line 2 is used to connect a telephone or answering machine.  Scans and fax number are transferred to the computer through a direct usb cable or via an ethernet cable connected to a router.

  If you connect the answering machine to line 2, the printer has built in the system so that the printer can decide if the call is for the answering machine or fax machine and act accordingly.  It won't work if the answering machine is connected to the printer.  Why don't you give that a try and let me know what happens.
