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!

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 a Premium: HP Officejet Pro 8500 a Premium does not print the docs of the computer, but will display a test page.

    HP Officejet Pro 8500 a Premium does not print the docs of the computer, but will display a test page.  I constantly get a message that the computer cannot communicate with the printer.   Not only it will be not be printed docs, it will not print web pages using 11 IE or Google Chrome.

    I used print and Scan of doctor, he always reports there are no questions and print page one same test so I can not print anything else.

    Whenever I want to print, I have to restart the computer.  After the reboot, I have a chance to print.   This problem started on February 15, 2015.

    My operating system is Windows 8.1.   I have unintalled HP, rebooted, and then reinstalled the software software:

    OJ8500_A910_1315 - 1.exe

    HP Print and Scan - HPPSdr.exe doctor

    HPSupportSolutionsFramework - 11.51.0049.msi

    All versions were last uploaded on 4 April 2015.

    I have a home wireless network (router Ubee DDW366).  All other devices in the House will be printed on the printer of 8500 has no problems: 2 Toshiba laptops, 2 Android phones and 1FireHD.

    The desk top is installed with a network card Netgear, I don't know the model, but I had it tested by a PC technology to verify that the card works.   The card and 8.1 of Windows have been installed on January 3, 2015.

    I have run virus scans and analyzes malware.  Whenever they show that there are no problems with my desktop computer.  What kind of desktop? Specially designed for my listing of... without brand computer parts store.  ASUS motherboard P6X580 Premium.  Now I will probably get hacked!

    I'm at my wits end.  And it's frustrating when I need to print something and the system hangs.  I often use screen printing to a word document to save in order to restart... but then I lose all sorts of features when I pick up what I needed.  It is also a time consuming.

    This printer we served well for two years and I have expensive cartridges pending; another two cycles of recharge.

    Help?

    Addendum: can I scan with the HP printer help.  I open the HP printer assistant, he "gets" the printer information, then I select "scan a document or photo" and the printer answers.   I have no problem with the sweep.

    It has been awhile, but I played on something you wrote.  "There could be a software conflict with the HP software" everything worked very well... impression was shifted at best; just didn't know if it would work.  So I would eliminate a program, reboot clean, try to print, and then reinstall the software.  I finally found the culprit.  I had a program running in the background, occasionally.  When it ran, HP does not print.  Stop the program and I was able to print... Do not have a problem since I found it... I do not say that it was a software to share files... so I replaced since this program with something else that doesn't cause problems...  It took a long time and I couldn't work the question every day.... but I can say that I have problems printing for the past 5 days!  I can print with confidence.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 909 a will not be re - install Mac 10.7.5

    I am very frustrated with this issue, I'll have. Here are the bullets:

    • Running Mac 10.7.5 (Lion).  Printer is connected to this computer through the USB port.
    • Has started to receive messages on my all-in-one HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 909 a scanning would work not and check the documentation for the aid.
    • While looking online and through some troubleshooting, I deleted my print printer to attempt to reinstall fees.

    The main problem I encounter is that I can't seem to re - install this printer no matter what I try.  Here's what I tried...

    • Tried to launch the HP (ver 2.3.15) CONFIGURATION UTILITY and DEVICE MANAGER HP (1.5.8) that was installed on this machine for the printer.  When going through the Setup utility, my device is not seen, so it is considered for a screen and then I invited me with a message that says that my device is not supported by the installer and I had to go to hp.com/support for more help.
    • When I go through SYS PREF > PRINT & FAX and try to click on the '+' to add a PRINTER, the printer never shows in the choice of 'default' as being same / connected.
    • When I go to find help on the support site, the indications only can I find tell me I should use for the Lion, update the Apple software to download the latest update (which I'm sure has already downloaded on this machine in the past).  Tried to restart my Mac, reboot and disconnect all the wires between the printer and Mac, to see if it would work the update of software this printer is connected.
    • I scoured the HP website to try to find the "utility installation hp for lion" install file, but it doesn't seem to be available as a manual download - each direction pointing right back on software updater.

    It is where I am at-I feel like I'm stuck in this small black hole where I can't use the HP Installer on this machine b/c it is too old and I can't download something 'new' of Apple Software Updater.  I did go to the Apple website and download the drivers for Mac OS x Mountain Lion & Lion. I have installed for this machine, restart and still nothing that shows this as a connected USB printer.

    Help, please.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 a910 a does not print

    Hey all,.

    had some problems recently with my a910 Officejet Pro 8500 has.

    From 1 day to the other, it stopped printing, each document is put in the waiting room, but no paper out.

    The vacuum-ing line made no difference, al checked settings in the box.

    Had removed all software, installed again, all via HP.

    All fine until testpage, no go.

    All 3 Doctoringtools of HP given their chance, all very well once again, until the testpage, so no reaction.

    I'm all of the options, maybe one of you, the specialists have everything?

    THX in advance and regards, Sander

    Hey Gordon,.

    When I tried tonight it print like it used to, as well!

    I don't know why, after you close a couple of times b4 electricity, to reset, no result then.

    Maybe now, with the new software (6th time install) and HP tools, he decided to once again where I bought it for...

    Thus, solved!

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 a Premium does not work!

    I have a HP 8500 a Premium e-all-in-one A910n. The problem I have is that printer power light is on but the printer does not. I have just used the printer because I have 2 connected to my network so basically, it's almost new. Yesterday I went to print a label for shipping to this printer and discovered that it did not work. Before a few power out for severe thunderstorms, here in Florida the printer worked when I used the latter. My 2 year warranty expired January 2013 never had problems with the printer before. After completing printer did not work I looked more and the power light was carried out. Printer has been connected to a bunch of surge protection. So did a search on the internet and found a solution of HP forum. First of all, I followed the steps to "restore an external power module.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01321436#N551

    I connected the cable to the printer as suggested directly to a wall outlet. But the outlet wall available closest was across the room. So I plugged it into the wall outlet, then in power while the power is on. Plugged the power cord at the back of the printer and the printer started its initialization process for nearly 15 minutes. Then everything seemed OK on the touch screen. Although I don't have a check printing. I did a power button close so that I could use a closer outlet. I did that and plugged printer on another once tested the printer wouldn't turn back on. I repeated the same steps on the reset of the external power supply without result. The power led remains on the printer as well as on the external power supply. I can't touch screen of the printer and the printer is initializing. Can someone PLEASE! Is it the printer or power supply external power that his witness remains on too! It's a printer expensive used sentence... I can not find anything on printer get repaired on the HP Web site if necessary.

    Well, I changed the logic board with an 8500 a more Board of eBay. The Premium printer & more than 8,500 use the same logic board. The difference between the two printers, it's that the premium has a second paper tray. After you have installed the most logical and crossing my fingers when I plugged power cord in.... was worth the $27.50 I paid for the Board on eBay. The printer is indeed, works again. Don't understand why HP or someone else keeps parts for an old printer in 3 years. HP wants to just sell an upgraded model, so they can do more of $ people. I did not see elsewhere the printer dumping excellent condition.

    I appreciate your comments! Rich1

    HI - none of the items on your suggested reference works.  I worked with one tech HP support guys and they determined that the fax feature is defective inside the printer.  Well, at least the copy and scan functions work well.

  • HP officejet pro 8500 A910: HP officejet Pro 8500 A910 not found.

    When I click the Start scan this popup HPScan happens, however until I uninstalled and reinstalled via software CD there was an another popup that said cannot communicate with a list of things to do including unplug it 10 dry. the router etc and printer.  Which does not appear more and before that, when I printed I need to clear the province of Quebec before the printer would print: WordDoc. Now, it has nothing hanging in Quebec and fact to the printer, but I can't scan. I contacted Sitecom and done everything I can do with them. The IP address is not appear in the properties of the printer, it shows a WSD Port and not TCP/IP. WIFI summary information indicates an IP address which has been registered before the last week power issue. Since this issue, the analysis did not correctly. A month ago there is power problem and when it was all done with, as well as of Sitecom and WLR 5002-AC750 everything worked on this IP address 192.168.2.99; but now the router is not displayed it and when I try to make a connection static it will not accept this IP and indicates the reason because he's not with the router IP listing series. I even restored HP printer, etc. Sitecom said I need to contact you because of the language of the printer or something like that. Please do not forget that helped Sitecom there are a lot of things a few weeks and you have the printer works on the router etc. is not that they are unwilling to help, they are now limited to go further in the problem of scan and I can't give them an announcement IP of the printer that works with the router , but it feels so... How can I get this IP?

    Hi @newdawn,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that your HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 printer will not communicate wirelessly on your network. I'd be happy to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "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 understand that you attempted to assign a static IP address, but the INVESTIGATION period is to give you questions. Please the following steps to help solve the problem.

    What is the IP address of the computer?
    It starts with 192.168.2.XXX?

    • If the computer has a different IP address, such as 192.168.1.XXX. This means that the computer and the printer are on different networks.

    If so, please proceed as follows:

    • Restore the default settings of network on the printer.
    • Run the configuration wizard wireless for reconnected to the network.
    • Click here to update the firmware of the printer.

    TIPS:

    • Don't hide the SSID (network name).
    • What type of encryption are you helping? HP recommends WPA and WPA2.
    • You have a double router broadband? Make sure that the two groups were not the same network name.

    If the problem persists, you may encounter an IP address conflict. It's a good idea to assign the printer a static IP address outside your DHCP range. For example, some routers default DHCP is located between 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.200. So, I would use 192.168.0.232.

    To assign the static IP address, use the following steps as a guide.

    • Print a Page of Network Configuration menu of the printer front panel. Note the IP printer. IPV4 address
    • Type the IP address in the browser to bring up the SAP.
    • Choose the network tab, then wireless on the left side, and then select the IPv4 tab.
    • Select Manual IP.
    • Enter your IP address manual (192.168.0.232)
    • Enter 255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask, except if it is different.
    • Enter the IP address of your router that sits on the Network Configuration Page) for the default gateway.
    • Please, click on manual DNS server. For the preferred DNS Server Manual please enter 8.8.8.8 and the Alternate DNS Server Manual, please enter 8.8.4.4.
    • Click on apply.
    • Restart the router, the printer and the computer.
    • Test printing and scanning.

    You can try to change your WSD printer port by a Standard TCP/IP port.

    Switch your printer WSD for a by Standard TCP/IP port port To do this, you will need your current IP address printers.

    You will then want to follow these steps for the switch port:
  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910 will not scan to folder - Windows 8 Pro

    I upgraded my HP M9500Y PC from Windows 7 to Windows 8 Pro.

    My printer is HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910.  In Windows 7, all the functions of print/scan/fax worked perfectly.

    Windows 8, printing without problem, however, analysis of the file function fails.

    When a document is scanned, the printer seems to be analysis correctly, but the destination folder contains a file of length zero with the new file name.  I tried the formats PDF and JPEG scans.  All attempts to produce files of length zero in the destination folder.

    I tried to change the path of the destination folder by replacing the address IP for the name of the PC, but that made no difference.  The destination folder is shared correctly on the Windows network and the configuration utility based on the web of HP for the digitization of records indicates that all tests have passed.

    What is the sequence of installation for Windows 8 will accept scan-to-folder operations.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 was not found.

    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 bought more just. After you have installed on a HP Pavilion m8100n desktop, everything works but the scanner. I get this message "The HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 is not found". Spent 3.5 hrs on the phone with HP support, they think that this is a problem in microsoft software. If I uninstall and reinstall the HP software it will work until I restart the computer. I feel confident that all troubleshooting has been done with HP at this stage and not need to go further with them. I use Norton on the computer as well. Someone has ideas how to get this fixed a problem?

    Hi BradKeith,

    You can try to completely uninstall the printer and before you reaffirm the system try to download the drivers from the HP site and trying to install and check.

    You can also check if uninstalling and reinstalling the video card drivers solves the problem.

    Method 1:

    Step 1: Uninstall the drivers from programs and features

    a. click on start

    b. type appwiz.cpl in search, and then press ENTER.

    c. find the printer driver packages, right click and uninstall it.

    Step 2: Uninstall the drivers from Device Manager.

    a. click on start

    b. type devmgmt.msc in search, and then press enter

    c. in find Manager device for the device, right-click on it and select the option uninstall.

    Before restarting the system, try to install the latest drivers from the HP site and check.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=4083969&LC=en&cc=us&DLC=en&lang=en&cc=us

    Method 2:

    You can temporarily disable the Norton Security software and the firewall installed on the system and check.

    Note: Be sure to enable the security software on the computer after checking.

    Hope this information is useful.
