HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909n - Windows 7 Driver needed!

Hello

I just bought HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909, and he does it not install on my Windows 7 RC1 installation. An updated driver is needed.

I wonder if there is no known workaround solution? I tried compatibility mode and run as admin, comes to about 90% ish and - error.

How can I be sure that HP will make a Windows 7 driver for this model, if I need to return it as soon as POSSIBLE.

Thank you

@ellirdad. I'm 100% agree with you want HP to solve the driver problem. It's quite maddening.

If you download and use the basic driverset, it works very well (I use Windows 7 RC1 x 64).  This is after forcing it to run in compatibility mode, of course. You can scan, fax, etc. Works very well.

I tried to install the driverset full and also had the problem where it would freeze at 96% and eventually times out. I was bored and deicided to make an investigation of the sound problem have is a file named flash9f.ocx. Apparently, he's trying to 'register' this file with Windows and she fails. I have not dug too deep, but I tried to download and manually save the flash9f.ocf and there still no, then who knows. I hope that HP will get on the ball and give us some Windows 7 drivers soon.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909n

    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909n I've had for a while.  Recently it from printing in pink even though my settings was to black ink only.  Then he stopped and started printing in black.  Want to know what caused this.

    Also, I wanted to know if in order to print in black so the color cartridges have ink inside.  I read somewhere that the carridges themselves must be in place, but he said not that the color cartridges must have ink inside.  I do not use color and don't want to buy new cartridges of color if I have to.

    Would like to help on these 2 points.  They can even be linked to the problem.

    Thank you.

    Hello @JCooper615!

    Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

    You mentioned that the printer printed pink when you had selected only black print cartridge.  I'm not exactly sure what caused this, but I can provide a few suggestions that can prevent it from happening again.

    Its possible to print to the printer head needs to be cleaned.  To perform a printhead, cleaning the printer just tap the "setup" on the screen of the printer.  Once your menu setup press "Tools", and then press "clean printhead".  The printer will run the print head cleaning and print a report.

    Another thing that I suggest is to remove the printheads and clean them manually.  Sometimes the ink can fog up on the copper of the print head contacts.  This can cause a bad electrical contact and may result in poor print quality.  For instructions on how to clean the printhead manually, click on: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01609042

    The printer takes 4 cartridges and 2 print heads.  The print heads are making to put ink on the page and they need to be replaced at any time.  If the problem persists, you may need to install a new print head.

    You also want to confirm if the printer needs color cartridges to print.  The printer requires all of the ink must be installed to be able to print.  If a color cartridge is empty, then the printer displays a message that it is unloaded.  The message will not disappear until this new cartridge is installed and will prevent you from printing.  When printing in black the printer still uses a small amount of color.  This is to ensure to don't clog the tubes of ink and the print heads do not dry out a lack of use.

    Some printers cartridges that have integrated print heads.  Some printers as the ENVY 5530 and Officejet 4630 do not require the color cartridge too be installed to be able to print.  They can print mode single cartridge.  So if you exhaust your colors you can just take it off and continue to print in black and white.

    Thanks again for the display on the HP Forums!

    Enjoy your day!

    I was trying to update my firmware on my HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909n. During installation, the installation froze. I was connected via my USB to the printer. There was a progress screen on the LCD of the printer that shows the numbers 1-5 with small squares under each of the numbers that were either low-light or highlight according to what stage or the status of the update on that. There was also a progress under the numbers bar. The update in the impasse with the square under the number four was highlighted and bar ceased under the number one growth. After 3.5 to 4 hours waiting for the update to complete, I had to kill the process of updating. Try the update again the model search engine can not find my printer and the printer lcd displays a circle with a helping hand to 12:00 and below is a string "B8084644". I'm stuck.

    Upgrade to Windows 8.1 on my Dell Studio laptop a few weeks ago and have not been able to load and install the SW factory driver.  Worked with HP support and they are unable to solve this problem.  SW will download and extract but the intallation will not initiate.  I tried unintalling McAfee firewall and virus SW - did not help.  I need the driver package to install to be able to use the scanner.  Have been able to get only a generic driver for printer through Windows.  Other than ditching Windows 8.1 ideas?

  • HP OFFICEJET PRO 8500 (CB022A) / Windows Vista 32 bit (printer appears in gibberish)

    I recently replcaed the this printer's magenta ink tank, but the screen has refused to accept it was sufficient ink in there. So I did a system reset, I thought. {The content removed}  However, this resulted in my words of choice display option is most read in English. Get the number of the option but not the word assigned with it. It literally reads like gibberish. I have a suspicion that the printer think that his memory is not for a tawianese or Japanese user but the police these languages stored inside.

    {The content removed} I got those on this forum site. While I got the #/ 3 (maybe answer.com, I think). I can probably take some pictures of the display with my iPhone and download them.

    Also when the printer prints a page additonal fate with a test pattern part when I print a page of a document is saved. My PC can not get the printer to scan more of Adobe Acrobat Pro and none of the software I have driver downloads HP can detect the printer or diagnose the problem of printers.

    I only resorted to this forum because I'm stuck.

    We do not have HP repair services, but you may be able to locate a repair shop that can help. Maybe a small possibility exists and believe me I hesitate to inform people that it would be in their best interest to get a new unit, but in this case, it's really my recommendation. At the time where efforts have been spent to find a way to get this device (not to mention the monetary costs) it would be simpler and more efficient to get a unit that could cost less than the price of the repairs.

    Have a great day!

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909N: OfficeJet Pro 8500 power Module

    The printer does not turn on, the power adapter light flashes on and outside, light sweep under the glass of the scanner blinks in sync with the light adapter and the power button does not work. When the power cord is disconnected from the printer, but remains connected to the AC, the light on the adapter continues to pulse.  I was wondering if this indicates a failure of the power adapter or a more serious problem with the printer itself.

    The link you provided describes the problem experienced, but unfortunately the solution wasn't able to resolve the problem. When the module is plugged in AC, the light flashes on and off for the module seems to be defective, perhaps victim of a power surge or slump.  Thanks for your help.

    Hello Sabrina,

    Welcome to the HP Forums.

    I see that you need the software and drivers for your printer on the Mac 10.10 operating system.

    The reason why you are not able to locate is simple because they are not available at this time.

    I have a suggestion that you can try.  Please click on the following link for HP v3.0 for OS X printer drivers.

    This driver will give you the possibility to print from your Mac.  You can use the scan to Apple for any analysis software that is already on the Mac.

    I hope this information is useful and if you have any other questions, do not hesitate to ask.

    See you soon,.
