Hello

The port must not be changed that way but through the HP software, it is managed by the software and such a mistake is planned during the attempt to change the port...

Try opening the HP Officejet Pro 8600 software, and then click the Utilities.

Click Update IP address and type the IP address of the printer, which can be found by clicking on the icon wireless/network at the top of the Panel before you the printer.

Click on save and confirm, then close and reropen the HP software,.

What happens when you try to scan now?

It'll work, or is there a specific error or behavior?

As well try now the doctor of printing & scanning HP, it is listed under the Utilties batn so, follow the steps on the screen by selecting the difficulty of analysis and let me know the results if you are still having problems.

  • OfficeJet pro 8600: not possible to change the scanning of the Panel of the printer resolution settings

    With my Officejet pro 8600, there is no possibility to change the scanning resolution settings when you are working in the control panel of the printer (not present button to touch) when I want to scan to the computer, while in the manual it is mentioned that, after pressing the Document Type, it should be possible to reach the resolution to change the resolution of the scan setting. On the other hand, when the scan to a memory card the button change the resolution settings is present.

    Sometimes for the scanning of all computers to select (winXP SP3 installed on it). The HP printing software is installed on all computers and manage digitization to the computer is turned on. It is possible to change the resolution settings when using my computer with the HP printing software, but as I said not in the use of the printer.

    Thank you to help you solve the problem!

    Hey mk75053,

    Scanning to memory card has the parameters of resolution through the front because that is the only way for the device perform this type of analysis.  However, to change the resolution settings for the Scan of the computer, one will have to perform scans through the software installed on the PC.

    I have all three types of 8600 models where I am located (base, more high quality) and of all printers simply ask to start the analysis after selecting the scan type.

    I hope this helps.

    I have a Qwest DSL Modem/router that has 4 ports on the back.  I use 1 Port on the DSL Modem/Router to conntect to my NetGear router.  I use 2 ports on the router/DSL Modem to connect my printer HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus.  I use 3 Port on the DSL Modem/Router to connect my Brother MFC-7360N printer.  I do not use 4 Port of Modem/router DSL.

    I have the HP printer software installed on all computers, but on WIN XP desktop pc I can not detect the printer on the network.  During the installation process, the software detects that the HP printer and the WIN XP pc are connected to two different routers (DSL Modem/Router is detected as a router by WIN XP pc).  On the another desktop running WIN8 or WIN7, it has no problem detection even if the printer is connected to the DSL Modem/Router, while the PC is connected to the NetGear router.

    Someone at - it some knowledge that why I'm having this problem.  The problem seems to be with the WIN XP pc and not the pc WIN7 or WIN8.

    You run a double NAT scenario, is not good.  Simple correction, switch the gateway (modem/router) in Bridge mode, which disables the functions of router and do just a modem.  Now, connect the Netgear router to the bridge and this have to manage all of your Wi-wired connections and.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600: White scan Pages of the feeder of the Officejet Pro 8600

    Trying to browse the food tray, scanner empty pages. Analysis on the flat. I tried to restart the laptop and printer also does to unplug for a minute.

    Hey @cornerstone1,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that your Officejet Pro 8600 e-all-in-one printer is the digitization of the blank pages to your machine in Mac OS x 10.8. I can help you with that.

    First of all, make sure that the printer is plugged directly into a wall outlet, not a surge protector. Once this is done, we will do a few things to refine the question. To do:

    1. Place a page with printed face down on the flat.
    2. Place a page with different print material face up in the ADF Document (CAD).
    3. Make a copy of the printed page.

    The next steps will depend on what is printed.

    If the printer made a copy of the page on the flat:

    The printer does not detect anything in the charger. Try to insert a blank sheet of 8.5 "X 11" or A4 paper and see if you hear a noise or identical to "document loaded Original" message. " If you have not the printer will need to be replaced. You can contact the HP Support by clicking on this link and fill out the form below to discuss the options based on your warranty.

    If the printer did a Virgin copy:

    Take a blank sheet of paper, write a 1 on one side of the sheet and number 2 on the back side. Then insert the paper in the tray and make a copy. If you still see a blank page then the printer will have to be replaced. You can contact the HP Support by clicking on this link and fill out the form below to discuss the options based on your warranty.

    If the printer made a copy of the page in the ADF:

    There is a problem with the drivers scanner on your Mac. To correct this:

    1. Unplug the USB cable from the printer, if it is connected to your Mac.
    2. Click Apple, system and print and Scan preferences.
    3. Hold down the CTRL key and click on the picture of the printer on the left.
    4. Click on reset printing system.
    5. Open Applications and your Hewlett-Packard folder.
    6. Launch the HP uninstaller.
    7. Open Applications, utilities and disk utilities.
    8. Click "Macintosh HD" on the left.
    9. Click on verify disk permissions. This should take about 10 minutes.
    10. Click on repair disk permissions. This should take about 10 minutes.
    11. Restart your Mac.
    12. Download and install the latest drivers by clicking on this link.

    At this point, you should be able to scan from the ADF.

    Hi @Wendy-needshelp,.

    Thanks for joining the Forums of HP Support for a solution to your problem copying.

    I understand that you use a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium e-all-in-one with a computer and Windows 7 when you copy from sometimes flat it will only copy and print 1/8 of the page. I would like to help.

    You mentioned having unplugged and replugged the power cord. This is something that could be done. If you can, I reset the power and try to connect the printer directly to a wall outlet, if you currently use a protector or electrical surge extention. Sometimes the surge protectors can limit the amout of the power supplied to the printer.

    There was an update firmware released in April, which can help your printer. You can download the update of the firmware and run it from your computer to install it on the printer. You can go to the HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g_n Firmware download page by clicking here.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus stopped Scan of the computer... Said the computer could not be found. Help!

    Hello

    I've been enjoying our HP Officejet Pro 8600 more MFP for a year now.

    Analysis of the it function on our machine no longer works. It indicates that the computer cannot be found. I used this feature all the time in the past.

    I can acquire a scan from an application, like Photoshop and I can scan to a removal storage device, but I can't use the computer Scan, and I really liked this feature!

    A few days ago, our computer has been infected by a virus. A Norton agent could succeed in eliminating it. Do you think this could have disabled the feature computer scanning?

    How can I get the MFP to recognize my computer again? I've looked up and down and impossible to find the solution for this.

    Thanks for any help you can provide!

  • OfficeJet pro 8600: printer works fine, but the software is not

    Printer works fine.

    However, the HP support the program "HP OfficeJet Pro 8600" will not start. I can see it in the HP folder under all programs, but clicking on the program name has no effect. The program name poins to "C:\Program HP HP Officejet Pro 8600\Bin\HP Officejet Pro 8600.exe" - UDCDevicePage Start

    In addition, in devices and printers in Control Panel, the printer connected displays. By double clicking on the icon takes me to...

    Opening HP All - in - One Printer Remote takes me to the window right... but the printer shows offline, and the various functions (scan, fax, etc.) are not available. (As noted, the printer is currently online, and I can print correctly.

    Connection to the wireless printer.

    All these functions work fine if I call them from the physical control on the front of the printer Panel.

    I don't know if these are two separate issues, or the two aspects of the same problem.

    Any thoughts?

    Thank you.

    I recently changed routers from D-Link to a Netgear R6400.  I could get my desk, the laptop and the i - Pad to connect to the new network, but not my HP Officejet Pro 8600 more.  When I try to change the IP address, which is what I think I do, the screen indicates "this feature has been locked by your system administrator or the one who put up the system."  I'm the only one using this printer and I put in place originally, but I do not remember 'locking' anything.  Will you please tell me how to solve this problem, so I can use the printer again.

    Hello

    Thank you for using the HP forum.

    A suggestion that we recommend is to uninstall and reinstall the software FULL of features.

    Alternatively, you can try the doctor print and Scan?

  • HP 8600 Pro - default is Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600, how can I change the ordinary printer

    Running Win 8.  Under control panel, the print device only shown is Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600.  In specific applications, I choose the HP Officejet Pro 8600 in the drop down menu, but this option in not avialable in the control panel to make the printer regularly by default.

    I hope I am explaining that properly.

    When you right-click on the Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600 icon and browse to set a default done it gives the choice, if not
    Click on the printer icon and look for the properties of the server printer on the top of the page to go to tab drivers and check if it shows you only officejet Pro listed twice a 8600 8600 series and the other as a Fax.

    If you see the two that could be the problem of installation does not complete successfully. I would uninstall from Add/Remove programs to remove the entry from the server properties and install the lates SW of the website the link is below

    Hi @yga and welcome to the Forums of HP!

    I see that you are looking to install the printer software. I would like to help!

    I would start with a power reset the printer.  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 would uninstall the printer softwarein case there is no residual software left.

    Once it is uninstalled, I suggest you put your system in clean boot mode in the configuration of Microsoft.  You can do this by following this document: How to perform a clean boot in Windows.

    Once the computer is in clean boot mode, I would suggest to reinstall the HP printer install wizard for Windows.

    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600: How can I disable the 'Fax' function on my Officejet Pro 8600

    When I try to print from "Firefox" it attempts to send a fax. If I try to close the fax, the page prints ever. I have no phone line and you want to disable the service "Fax".

    @vickiJohnk

    Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

    'Default' printer can be set to be the 'fax' instead of your main printer.

    See the following topics:

    Print to printer without first record in the file

    In general, if you do not configure the fax - and that you do not accidentally - access you should not have to worry about this.

    You can find more information on fax in the User Guide, Page 62.

    If you have any concerns that 'something' is entered in the configuration of the fax that you ignore, you can check / look at your configuration of the fax machine (as well as all of your facilities to printer) using your EWS link on your printer.
