HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g: My printer is not wireless...

Hello! I tried for three days to get my printer to print something. For some reason, my HP Officejet Pro 8500 all-in-One a909g is not printing.

I tried to update the drivers to see if that was the problem, but for some reason that my printer is not connected to my HP laptop wireless. The connection for some reason any broke. Whenever I go to enter the WPA code (which is correct and yes I put it in place for WPA and WPA2 not) it keeps refusing to connect to my laptop.

If someone could help me please, it is something that I really need for my studies and we just replace the ink and Printhead and cannot afford to replace really. Thank you!

Hello
Thank you to try the Wireless Setup Wizard.
Seems strange that the printer is not able to connect to the home network.

If your printer is close to the router, you can connect using an Ethernet (Lan) cable.

You will still need to install the printer software when you do this so that the drivers are properly configured i.e. non-plug-and-play.

Hope that helps!

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 has: the printer does not

    Got a message on the control panel may not print, replace the depleted ink cartridge (magenta) to resume printing.  Nothing changed when I replaced the magenta cartridge.  I replaced it once again without change.  I keep getting the same message and therefore impossible to print.

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

    If I understand your message that you are having problems with your cartridge.  I would like to help!

    I recommend to start by removing the printer ink cartridges and reset the power supply.  Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

    Then, I recommend following the steps in this document:

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 a909g - print from somewhere outside Tray 1

    Hello

    I am a consultant and one of my clients has this printer.  He has a paper tray, 250 sheets.  There's also the feeder on the top where you can feed the things to scan or copy.

    When he wants to print checks or envelopes, to remove the tray, take the paper and put in controls.

    Is it possible to print these one other way or you have buy the 2nd tray accessory?

    Thank you

    Hey texaspete,.

    The automatic document feeder on top of the Officejet Pro 8500 A909g can only be used for scanning/copying.  The mechanism for the loader doesn't have a printhead to be able to produce printed documents.

    However, there is the possibility of obtaining a 2nd paper for the Officejet Pro 8500 tray.  HP no longer produces the paper tray, but there are 3 third-party suppliers who still carry the part.

    * The part number for the option 2 tray (tray of 250 sheets) is CB802a.

    Try Google search for this product number and you will find many options of different companies.  I hope this helps.

  • AirPrint on HP officejet Pro 8500 A909G

    Is it possible to use AirPrint on a HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g? Thank you

    OK, so a solution of firmware is released. The PrinterShare software solution is awkward. You can print to a printer that is shared by a Mac or a PC, but who wants to turn on their computer, whenever you want to print from iOS device? Given that I and everyone using devices iOS want be able to print natively and directly on a wifi printer, there are only two options left. Either you buy a new printer AirPrint for a few hundred dollars or more, or you buy the Lantronix xPrintServer for $150.

    http://www.Lantronix.com/it-management/mobile-print-servers/xprintserver.html

    xPrintServer is the solution I finally chose. It works as advertised. Simply connect it to your router, connect the power cable, and it works instantly. Almost no network printer, wifi or not, is recognized by AirPrint. Select your printer and print. So sweet!

  • HP officejet pro 8500 a909g driver for mac 10.10.3

    Hello

    I am not able to scan/print through HP officejet pro 8500 a909g 10.10.3 Mac.

    I think because of no proper drivers, scanning/printing does not work.

    What should do?

    Hi @pan1490,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you cannot print or scan with your HP Officejet Pro 8500 a909g on Mac OS X 10.10.3 Yosemite to. And I'm happy to see it for you!

    To verify that your printer hardware is functional, you are able to make copies of the scanner glass? Copy of a multi-page Original.

    If you are able to copy, then I recommend to install this driver, HP v3.1 for OS X printer drivers, which is the only driver I know for this printer on Mac OS X 10.10.3 available. Please see this post, Re: iMac OS X 10.9.3 scan driver for HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 a A910a to iMac doesn't seem to be, by my colleague @Sunshyn2005. How to scan without HP on Mac software.

    Hope this solves your problem and have a nice day!

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909g do not receive the correct IP address of the DHCP server

    Hello

    We have reconfigured our network to use 172.16.11.xxxx

    We have assigned our OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909g printers IP addresses by using DHCP reservations.

    After joining the wireless network, all our printers have an address of 169.254.xxxx.xxx.

    What Miss me?

    Thank you

    Christophe

    DHCP is still active on your router?  The printer must have active DHCP.

    169.254.x.x means the printer sees the router, but does not have a valid IP address to him.

  • 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.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 a909g wireless connection problem

    I have a printer wireless OfficeJet Pro 8500 a909g.  My PC is Windows 7 (64-bit).  Recently, the printer wasn't working reliably and we took to reboot our router frequently at the same time.  Router problems seem to be solved because my PC at home and the work laptop are well connected and running.  However, the printer would not work last night when I really needed.  The documents would appear in the queue, but never reach the printer.  Today, I uninstalled all the software of HP using the CD of origin and reinstalled all the latest software and drivers from hp.com.  Of course, I rebooted the printer several times during this process.  Using the Network Wizard wireless via the screen of the printer, I am able to locate my SSID and enter the WPA key.  The printer confirms that it is connected to the network.

    If my computer and printer are both connected to the same network why can't the HP software locate the printer?  Whenever I try to run the installation/Setup program it tells me that there is no HP printer on the network.  As I said, this printer has worked on this wireless network in the past.  I also downloaded and run the scan HP and difficulty of the program to see if she could solve the problem without success.

    Any other suggestions?

    Well, what I'm going to make you, it's just a basic uninstall and reinstall the printer. I'll describe the steps and you are right, we can use the USB > wireless Assistant. You can access that by running the software after the installation of the USB. Here are my steps...

    First of all, if you use a USB cable, be sure to remove it. Do not plug it in again until the software instructs you. Through devices and printers, programs and features and issues Device Manager and make sure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. As indicated, and then restart the computer.

    The START menu type "%temp%" and press on ENTER. Here, I want you to press Ctrl+A and press on REMOVE. Some files you cannot delete them, ignore these files and delete the majority that allows it to.

    Follow this link to download full feature software and drivers of the printer:

  • 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.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 a: printers print only after the new cartridges installed

    Whenever I put in new cartridges I have problems with the print head alignment, then it usually printed.  This time, he was sitting with cartridges empty color for awhile and now it does not print at all.  I always use only the new HP cartridges.  It fails the alignment and the blue and yellow and sometimes the magenta show on the sheet alignment.  What is the print heads?  Why would I need to change them whenever I have to add ink cartridges new which makes no sense.  I have never changed them, but they worked very well until I added the new ink.

    Hey @janh1058,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.  I hope you enjoy your experience here.

    I understand that e-all-in-one-HP Officejet Pro 8500 a your printer is printing is no longer.  I would like to work with you on this. I have a few suggestions that might restore your printing capabilities.

    It could be that the long period of inactivity of dormancy has dried the print head, even if you have made the right choice in leaving the cartridges installed in the printer.  I recommend you try the following basic troubleshooting steps before embarking on a manual print head cleaning more intensive:

    • Click here and clean the printhead automatically via the front panel of the printer, as shown in the second Solution.
    • Repeat three times if you still have print quality issues.
    • Remove and reinsert the cartridges once more with the printer to force the printer to print a different allignment page.
    • This to improve the print quality?

    If you use always the same question, I have a few more advanced troubleshooting tips:

  • Language assistance on OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909g

    Someone has changed the language on my OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909g.  Could someone give me indications of countdown through the menu options?  Start by clicking on the key? Beyond the key, it is all Greek to me, or in this case Chinese (I think). Thank you.

    I thought about it by trial and error.  Tap the key symbol.  Scroll all the way down; It's "Preferences".  Click on 'Préférences' and the first option on the next page is the "language".  Click on "Language" and then scroll down until you see your language.  English is the first on the list.

  • HP officejet pro 8500 a909g: print heads

    my printer has stopped printing in black ink, even if the ink level is more than half full.  Ran "clean print head" and he ran forever.  Still not printing or copying in black.  color copy.

    Hey @ahornplayer58,

    I would like to help you to solve the problem that you experience when you try to print in black ink of your HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless all-in-One Printer today. Thank you for troubleshooting that you have completed before reaching out for support, including. Right now, it sounds like you have a defective black cartridge or defective printhead. In this model of printer, you have two print heads. There is a printhead magenta and cyan and a black and Yellow Printhead. If a replacement black cartridge fails to resolve your printing delivers a replacement black and Yellow Printhead may be necessary. Saying that, there are still a few troubleshooting steps that we can try before replacing anything. Can I please you follow the steps below.

    To start, please click here to access the troubleshooting steps. Once the support document opens please run through the solutionand four Solution. This includes all sub-steps under the two alternatives. A print head cleaning may be run up to three times to resolution. If you make three Printhead clean nothing helps, please do not proceed with any additional cleaning ink is used to clean the print head system, and you will just be wasting ink if you want to go forward.

    If the problem persists, the next step listed would be to replace the black and Yellow Printhead. However, it is never a bad idea to first try a black cartridge.

    Please reply to this message with the result of your troubleshooting. Good luck!

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 a Premium: print head

    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 a Premium e-all-in-one printer - A910n printer on a home network.

    I have known printing issues that point to a printhead problem; but I don't know where.  I lined up and cleaned the print heads HP Print & Scan doctor and the console on the printer.  No luck; My test pages shows the black and magenta blocks, but not blocks cyan or yellow.

    I printed the console power-on self-test diagnostic page; and, he pointed out that the status of printhead is good for the two print heads.

    If I have to replace a print head, I don't know what printhead to replace.  Of what I have posted. It sounds like black/yellow or magenta/cyan failed; or do I have another problem?

    Thank you!

    Pleasetry switch to a different USB port on the PC.

    Make sure that the bable is no longer than 2-3 m long and not via a USB hub or extension.

    Try printing and check any change.

    If the paper again impression and stuck, unplug the USB at the back of the printer.

    You immediately see the paper of movements that?

    If so, it seems that the USB cable is defective and must be replaced.
