• My HP Officejet Pro 8600 cannot print from my MacBook Air

  Hello

  My HP Officejet Pro 8600 cannot print from my MacBook Air. It keeps on showing "the printer is not connected", but the display on the printer connected. I often reset the printer "EVERY TIME" I want to use. I also tried to turn off my laptop and printer several times before printing. If I'm lucky, it will work maybe for one or two prints. If no luck then I have to reset everything again. Sometimes I reset the printer, the printer is not displayed on my selection.

  Hello boojoo1tw,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  I understand that you are unable to print most of the time with your Officejet 8600. How is the printer connected? USB or wireless? What is your operating system on your Mac computer? Click here to find out.

  If your wireless printer, then I recommend the award of an 'IP address' by following this HP document on printer does not maintain the wireless connection.

  Please post your results, I'll be looking forward to hear from you.

• How can I set up my new Officejet Pro 8600 more printing on paper photo 4 x 6?

  How can I set up my new Officejet Pro 8600 more printing on paper photo 4 x 6?  I'm running on Windows 7 64 bit.

  It's strange.  Looks like you have a second paper tray and put it to the default tray.  The second paper tray only supports the types of paper that show on your list.  It's strange because unless you have purchased a second tray paper, plus model has one.  Does only the high-end model.  Other than that, only certain types of media can be duplex, so if you have double-sided printing, it can limit the selection.  I'll watch what else could be the cause and get back to you.

• HP OfficeJet Pro 8600, HP printer wizard installs not when the software is installed from the CD

  HP Officejet Pro 8600 e printer all in one

  Windows 7

  I had Assistant printer installed and working on my computer at least a year, then there was an update and it no longer works.

  I uninstalled the device and the software and reinstalled both on-site and directly from the CD without success.

  The only error I get is when I start everything first install it and there is a red "x" next to the update of windows.

  The installation process ends, the computer will recognize the printer and I am able to print but I have no control any function because none of these options in the wizard for the printer are turned on.  They are all grayed out.   The most important thing I need is the archiving of received faxes.

  Someone else in my family had the same problem, but was able to reinstall from the Web site and doesn't have any more problems.

  Thanks for any help.

  Hi liluno18,

  I want to help you with this question. I send you this link to the Microsoft forum on how to fix the red X on windows update. Follow the response from Joseph M.

  So I suggest you do a complete uninstall software of the JO 8600 and reinstalling the software once you have windows update works again.

  Let me know if you need help, I would be happy to help you.

• HP Officejet Pro 8600-general printer error

  A sign on the printer came up to say that I had to fill two of the printer color cartridges.  I did, and then a message pops up saying that he had a problem with "ink system.  This was followed by a message that says General Printer Error "."

  I was advised to put off the printer, then unplug it, without success.

  I took the ink cartridges and repositioned them and put them back again without success.

  I contacted HP support, put my serial number and was informed that my warranty was expired.

  What do you suggest me?

  Hello Busyasabee,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I understand after having to change the cartridges on your HP Officejet Pro 8600, you now get a general print error "ink system.  I see that you have completed the troubleshooting steps base without success.

  I have a recommendation which is mine only and not that of HP, because your HP JO 8600 has a removable print head, you can try to rinse the print head. I had other members of the community to use this method and have been able to print correctly after.

  Now, the video, I send, suggest to buy their cleaning kit. This is not necessary, you can use water and SOAP. If you don't feel comfortable withdrawal and rinsing of the print head is ok, but it's the only other suggestion I have that the printer is out of warranty and troubleshooting of all has been done.

• HP Officejet Pro 8600 more print but not scan

  I have an Officejet Pro 8600 and I use Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) and it print and copy but will not scan. I had a hell of a time trying to get this thing to scan - I even spent an hour and a half with HP technical support and they could not fix it and finally gave up and call me Micro$ oft said that it must be a windows problem (Windows is up to date, incidentally).

  I tried to open the scanner software and nothing happens when I click the icon - the loading icon flashes for a second, then only the mouse pointer. Nothing happens if I try to boot from all programs. Nothing happens if I try to scan to the computer of the other printer told me the failure of sweeping and that there could be reasons of severalpossible (unrelated, software used, etc.).

  I have installed and uninstalled. A couple of times he was having trouble with the installation, but finally got it connected. Once it would not uninstall in Control Panel until I did it directly from the HP folder. I connected it by USB and wireless. I installed the version of bloatware. I cleaned that out and I tried the only version of drivers. The HP support person had me go and removed a bunch of stuff in the registry. I tried to run as an administrator. Nothing works. I even tried to scan using Windows Fax and scan. I disabled Kaspersky and made sure that my firewall is turned off.

  I am at my wits end with this and certainly regret my purchase at the moment. Help!

  Hello, it happens to the analysis of Windows (WIA) and generates an error:

  "The Windows Imaging service does not work... If the problem persists, you will not be able to scan using the applications that use this service, such as Microsoft Paint. Scanning software HP could still work. »

  It asked me to restart, and then re-run the diagnostic tests, but I got the same result.

  Then, I jumped to HP Scanner Twain and got another error:

  "The Twain component is not working properly because the product is used by another process. Save your work and close all applications. Turn the product off, turn it on again, and then click on restart and repeat the test. »

  He told me then the problem persists to uninstall the software, then reinstall the Full Feature software (I did, but available).

  * EDIT

  Problem solved!  After you had me run the diagnostic tool I googled the WIA problem and found that many other people had the same problem. A person has a response from Micro$ oft saying that it was a Windows 7 issue and how to fix it - this is the text I found:

  To start the WIA service, you need start all services of dependence. To start the dependency services, please follow the steps mentioned below:

  -> > click on start-> type "services.msc" and press ENTER, once you get up the services window, please do the rest steps.

  -> > first check and write down all the dependency services: -

  -> > right WIA-> properties-> tab dependence, check the services of name listed there.

  It must contain the following services:

  * RPC remote Procedure Call

  -> > DCOM Server process Launcher

  -> > RPC end point mapper

  * Detection material core

  Make sure that all of the above services are started in the services list.

  Last time, we started the Detection hardware Kernel, which solves our problem.

  (Andy, it's important.  Choose "Detection hardware Kernel ' and start this service which should start your 'Windows Imaging Acquisition '.  If it does not then select WIA and change the departure to "automatic".  This fixed my problems) after all dependency services start, please try to start, WIA service to solve the problem of .                                                                                                                                                                                       

  (For those who are doubtful with computers, like me, when you click on the start icon, you can type services.msc in the box of research programs or click on run and type it in there). Once inside the list of services, you can look at the dependencies by right-clicking on the Windows Image acquisition service and selecting Properties. Take note of these dependencies. Then back to the main list and watch to see if these dependencies are started. My Shell Hardware Detection says disabled, so I right click on it; However, starting selection is grayed out and I couldn't select it from the drop-down list box, so Startup type I selected Automatic, apply, close the Services window and then started my Scan software and presto, it worked.

  Thanks for setting me on the right track!

  
  

• 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 8600 more printing envelopes chemistry

  The normal printing process seems to work perfectly, only when printing envelopes #10 they live I have the problem with the crooked not printing any way how the envelope is inserted according to the Setup (Microsoft Word).

  To date, the following steps were taken:

  1. the version of the firmware is up to date: CLP1CN1322CR

  2. all the rollers are clean and act freely, no paper jams/particles anywhere - front or rear.

  3. the envelope seems to come out all right (looking directly at the front that it falls on the paper tray.

  4. different types of envelopes #10 were tried.

  The twisted print template is not consistent, sometimes it low angles differently and sometimes the implementation of the address of the sender and the recipient are different.

  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  PROBLEM SOLVED

  The result is: READ THE MANUAL

  I had been assuming (incorrectly) OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus would print the same as my previous HP OfficeJet Pro L7680 envelopes.  This model allowed me to print envelopes by putting on paper envelopes, I already had in the tray, put the envelopes on the side right side down.  He had always worked before with no problem and the envelopes printed correctly, even if you could use the status bar and adjusted the sides to accept the correct envelope size (never tried).

  On the 8600 model, you MUST remove any paper in the tray and load the envelopes in the Center, adjusting the sides to the size of the envelope.  In ADDITION, you must insert the face or envelopes down with the edge of the flap that is pointing to the right, a bit like the graphics on the bottom of the stage show.

  IF YOU USE MS WORD TO PRINT ENVELOPES AND LABELS, IT MAY BE CONFUSING BECAUSE IT SHOWS 6 POWER AVAILABLE, IF YOU CHOOSE THE ((QUATRIÈME DE LA DROITE) METHODS, IT SHOWS THE ENVELOPE IN THE MIDDLE AND THE EDGE OF THE FLAP FACING RIGHT, THIS CAUSES THE IMPRESSION OF BEING UPSIDE DOWN ON THE ENVELOPE.)

  That's what you should first read the User Guide (manual) for for the 8600 printer printing envelopes:

  Print on envelopes (for Windows, p. 39)

  Load Media (p. 24)

  Load the envelopes (p. 25)

  My frustrations have completed cockpit error.

• HP Officejet Pro 8600 black printing/copying has vertical lines on the page. The color is fine.

  HP Officejet Pro 8600.  at 2 weeks.

  Windows XP

  Color copies/prints are very good.  Black prints/copies have vertical lines widths, ranging from top to bottom.  This occurs when it is copied to form glass or through the feeder.

  Suggestions?

  If the unit is producing lines in copies, so I suggest checking a few things. Make sure that the printer is plugged into a wall outlet directly and not in a surge protector. Additionally, make sure that the glass of the scanner (including the small strip on the left) are clean.

  Also, see the steps in the document troubleshooting located here.

• HP officejet pro 8600 - cannot print from my macbook pro

  We just bought a new HP officejet pro 8600 but for some reason, we cannot get my macbook pro to print on it. My mac says it is connected to it. It is listed in the printer only and all the settings look fine, but when I send a document to the printer, it will not be printed. He did print the first day we had (a week ago) but it stopped and we cannot figure out what to do. My daughter's PC will be printed, as well as the pc of my husband. It is the first time that I had problems printing to a hp from my mac. Any thoughts?

  I had my Officejet Pro 8600 about six months.  Recently, I had the same problem.  It continues to print from my Windows computers but not the Mac.   Labour goes into the impression that it is place on a wedge.  I tried many fixes, including the removal of the printer and reinstall.  Usually removing and reinstalling it will fix for a while, but now, even that does not work.  In my view, that the permanent solution is to buy another printer.

• OfficeJet Pro 8600. Printing a list of todo in black and white

  I want to print a list of Todo comics in black and white rather than in color. (This is a todo list [i.e. Gaston ToDo] available in the applications in the HPePrintCenter).

  I don't see a setting that allows me to set a preference to black and white.

  Suggestions, please.

  Thank you.

  Hello lovemutts,

  Thank you for being a member of the HP support forums.  I see you want to learn more about the print settings with one of printing applications to which you are subscribed.

  I've included the document Getting Started with Print Apps and at the request of delivery print Apps .  In the section titled "Managed print Apps" is a sub-section titled 'print settings.  In there, it says "On some printers connected to the web, a settings option is available on the screen of the print Apps Print Preview mode that provides options to select the type of paper and print quality."  If the application you are using does not offer this option so that you will not be able to change all the predefined print settings.

  You shouldn't have any problems with the documents in your list. You did to be sure you choose the correct paper type before printing? The product can capture not paper if the type in the tray and paper format does not match the size settings and type in the print driver. Heres how to check the paper type is defined:
