HP Officejet Pro 8600: Lost printer installation CD... Help!

I'm at my wits end... In a nutshell, here's the deal... For some reason, my printer stopped printing.  Lost my installation CD, so I went online and I tried everything.  That's what I've done so far...

-Uninstalled everything that has to do with my printer.

-Deletion of printer on the control panel.

-I went to the HP site and followed everything on the installation and identification new printer and printer software.

-I'm only connected with a USB key since I have no group network / wireless.

Any advice?  Thank 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.

  • 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 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 8600 n11a - print multiple copies

    I use a MAC desktop computer.  I never had a problem with a printer this one up.

    It prints several copies, even if only is selected.  I put it to facotry settings, nothing helped.

    Hello SaMac2,

    I understand that you have found several printed copies when you use your Officejet Pro 8600 and Mac. If you make a copy and select only one copy, it print multiples also?

    You can try to uninstall the printer software, repair disk permissions on the Mac, put the Apple icon updated, restart the computer and download / install the software again. (since I don't know the installed Mac version, click on the 'Download' link, select your operating system and then hit next, click driver - product Installation software then download).

    I'll check for your response.

  • Unique to an Officejet Pro 8600 envelopes printing

    I have just my new HP Officejet Pro 8600 installation. It is true that I can print stacks of envelopes as a media type but can not simply slide an envelope in the feeder and print a single envelope?

    I have been an active desktop and perform tasks of office such as the digitization of documents entrants, fax, correspondence, etc. All individual tasks without hassle. How can I print one envelope of my program of postage to send a letter? Huh, without the hassle of removing the media already in the charger to a standard daily print?

    If it helps, I use VISTA Home

    > No need to a charger of sheets 80 $2500

    I think it's a typo in and 8lives probably means a tray extra paper"250 sheets!

    But you raised the same exact question that made me delay the upgrade for my printer for many months, because I couldn't find a printer (in this class '8600' printers) that would allow me to feed in just an occasional envelope, without needing to remove and "Re-assign" the times set paper tray!  Absolutely maddening!

    (The Epson nearly equivalent workforce printers apparently take one-off envelopes through their rear trays, but these trays back need additional "behind the printer" access my office - the installation program could not allow - and I did not have an HP printer in any case !)

    Then (because I could afford the high additional printer as well as the extra cost!) I gave up and bought one of these '250 sheets' extra paper trays, costing around 50UK books, and who is now dedicated to my DL envelopes, which I could print perhaps two or three per month!  An absolutely crazy design flaw in my opinion exasperated!

    But I like my printer 8600 otherwise!

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911a: HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911a - Print when Fax is not saved

    Can I do so a fax is printed when it is not registered?

    I know that I can put to print and save every time, but I trust HP digital fax to save paper.

    If a fax is not registered, either because of a network error, or if the computer that logs usually in is cut off, can just fax be printed?

    @MrMeow, it's nice to meet you.

    I think I found something that can help your fax dilemma.

    This information has been in the User Guide for the Officejet Pro 8600 e-all-in-one - N911a; PG 69.

    Set up backup fax

    According to your needs best and security, you can configure the printer to store all faxes it receives, only faxes it receives while the printer is in an error condition, or none of the faxes it receives.

    The following fax backup modes are available:

    On >  The default setting. When backup fax is enabled, the printer stores all faxes received in memory. This allows you to reprint up to eight more recently printed faxes if they are always saved in the memory.

    NOTE: When the memory of the printer is low, it replaces faxes print, older because it receives new faxes. If the memory is full of unprinted faxes, printer stop to answer incoming fax calls.

    NOTE: If you receive a fax that is too large, as a very detailed color photo, it cannot be stored in memory due to limitations of memory.

    Error only > Causes the printer to store faxes in memory only if there is an error condition that prevents the printer to print the faxes (for example, if the printer is out of paper). The printer continues to store incoming faxes, as long as the memory is available. (If the memory is full, the printer stops responding to incoming fax calls). When the error condition is resolved, the faxes stored in memory automatically, print and then they are deleted from the memory.

    Off >  Faxes are never stored in memory. For example, you might want to disable fax backup for security reasons. If an error condition occurs which prevents the printer to print (for example, tracks paper printer), the printer stops responding to incoming fax calls.

    NOTE: If the backup fax is turned on and you turn the printer off, all faxes stored in memory are deleted, including any unprinted faxes that you might receive while the printer was in an error condition. You must contact the senders asking them to return the unprinted faxes. To get a list of faxes that you have received, print the Fax log. The Fax journal is not removed when the printer is off.

    To set backup fax from the printer control panel

    1 tap (right arrow) and select Setup.

    2. press Fax Setup, and then click Advanced fax setup.

    3. press on the backup Fax reception.

    4. press on , error, or out of service.

    Reprint of faxes received from memory

    If you set backup fax mode to On, received faxes are stored in memory, whether the printer has an error condition or not.

    NOTE: After that the memory is full, the oldest faxes, prints are replaced as new faxes are received. If all stored faxes are not printed, the printer does not receive fax calls until you print or erase memory faxes. You can also delete the faxes in memory for purposes of confidentiality or security.

    According to the sizes of the faxes in memory, you can reprint up to eight more recently printed faxes, if they are still in memory. For example, you will need to re - print your faxes if you have lost the copy of your last draw.

    To reprint the faxes in memory from the printer control panel

    1. make sure you have loaded paper in the main tray.

    2 tap (right arrow) and select Setup.

    3. touch Tools , or Faxand then select reprint faxes in memory. The faxes are printed in reverse order, where they were received with the most recently received fax printed first, and so on.

    4. If you want to stop reprinting the faxes in memory, press the Cancel button.

    Please let me know if these steps solved your problem, or if there is anything else I can do to help.

    I look forward to hear from you!

    Thank you

  • 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.

    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.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600: HP Officejet Pro 8600 not printing pictures

    With the kind cooperation of RnRMusicman and other knowledgeable people here, I could solve virtually all the problems I had Windows 10 to my HP Officejet Pro 8600, work flawless long since I bought it and while I was using the Professional Windows 7 operating system.  I was able to solve the problems of scanning and printing.  I should say that I can NOW print letters, notes, etc. I wrote on WordperfectX6, scanning photos, documents, etc. without any problems.  However, today, I tried to print photos of two 2 'My images' files and everything seemed to go OK, I got the display window to ask me how many, what size, photos etc I wanted to print and I clicked on print, then got another window showing the progress, but there was absolutely no response from my HP Officejet Pro 8600.  I tried to unplug and plug in again, restart, using the HPPSdr.exe and telling me everything is beautiful - but of course, this isn't.  When I tried to choose in the menu to go online to more possible solutions, I still said that I am not connected to the internet.  I hope I'm not overstaying my welcome to these forums.  It is a serious problem, I want to overcome since I have to print photos from time to time for projects.  Thanks in advance to you all and know that I am very grateful for past assistance which has solved MOST of the problems.  This one I didn't know until I tried to print photographs, lol.  As I said the OTHER impression, as WordperfectX6 is absolutely no problem only photographs.  Even looking at the "see what's printing" I do not see the ORDERS that I sent to the printer.  It is completely empty.  Thanks again.

    First of all, I do not deserve the title of "Guardian", lol.  I had adjustments and is raging after the upgrade to Windows 10 trying to do my job of Hewlett-Packard Officejet Pro 8600 (blah, blah blah).  I tried all kinds of recommended patches and nothing has been done, or he helped briefly and then the problem resurface.

    Feeling totally beaten yesterday, 2 November 2015, I deleted every single file from HP, fix, program, diagnostic tool ALL.  Then I unplugged the printer from your telephone line and plug its USB connection to the computer.  It was 19:00, 2 November 2015.   I then dug around and found the original set of the instructions that came with the printer when I bought it on amazon about two years ago.   Left on my desk, resolved to do battle with these unbeatable hi-tech "monsters" overnight.

    This morning, November 3, 2014, at 6:30, to feel refreshed and ready for battle, I discovered by accident that my DSL provider, century link, had a firewall (in addition to one already, I have in my software) so I advanced and off to see if that would help.   I just reconnected it on the printer, BUT this time I have not re - download HP software.  AND HERE, my Officejet Pro 8600 works again!  I can print from WordPerfectX6, I can print some photographs-YAY!   The only thing I'm still not able to solve must be able to print the pages of the internet.  For example, I tried to print a page of amazon.com and when I went to 'print' I was delivered to a Fax template.  This happened also when I clicked on "Print preview" - but I can live with THAT.  So, I walk away from the battlefield until I totally lose my sanity and tell me "that's close enough," lol

    Another by-product happy to remove the firewall of the century-link, which I didn't even know existed, it's NOW, I was able to receive updates from Dell, which had previously been cancelled/blocked, ostensibly by this firewall 'stealth' of my DSL provider which I didn't even know existed.

    Thank you!  To you all, who tried to help and who actually HELPED thanks to your suggestions.   Who would have thought that do not try to download HP ALL and eliminating a firewall that I didn't even not existing would solve 99% of the problems.  Thank you, Hewlett-Packard to also operate these forums!   They are EXTREMELY USEFUL!
