HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 periodically loses the wireless connection

I have a new printer HP 8600 settlement. It is configured as a wireless printer and most of the computers on my network are able to access very well.

However, I have a server running Windows 2003 Small Business Server and it's hard to stay connected to the printer. The server is wired through an ethernet cable, the printer is configured as a configuration wireless w / an IP defined manually so that computers can easily locate the printer on the same IP address every time. I used Windows XP drivers to install the printer very well under Win2003SBS. When connected, it prints very well. But after awhile, the printer loses the connection with the Win2003SBS machine. Sometimes it prints, usually, is not. I have to reset the printer as if it is going into such a deep sleep, the server is unable to wake up the printer.

In addition, the printer struggled to connect to shared folders on the server (more precisely, the function "scanner network"). If I go into Internet Explorer by using the browser from the server, then connect to the 8600 via the built-in web server, it won't work. Once the server is connected to the printer on the built-in Web server, the server and the scanner will be will recognize each other. It is a painful and tedious extra step and it will expire after a short period, after which the server and printer must be connected in the same way.

All my computers/printers/faxes are connected to the same wireless Westell 7500 router. They should not have communication problems because they are all pulling IP addresses in the same area.

Is there a way to make the server and the printer recognize themselves and stay connected? Am I wrong configured something? Thank you.

Hi bluestreak363,

I would change the Ethernet cable to make sure that you have a good solid connection and then download the software driver for Win Server 2003 on the link below.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: loss of wireless connection, printer does not accept the password wireless

    My printer has suddenly lost its wifi connection. It's the only phone connected to my network to do so.

    Through the Wireless Setup Wizard to restore the connection. Assistant tells me that I entered an invalid password wireless, that is not true. (I confirmed that all devices connected to the network using the same password).

    Reset the router (Technicolor of Time Warner). Reset the printer. The 'Restore default network' done. No luck.

    Zero has changed since yesterday, when my printer was working fine. I used the same router for months, do not change any settings. Any thoughts on what may be the issue? A bad update happen?

    Thanks in advance.

    My apologies for the late reply. I managed to get this problem resolved by phone to customer service.

    The security mode of the router had to be changed to 64 WEP for wireless connection to be restored. According to Support HP, it's a common problem with the routers in Technicolor. There was no explanation as to why the printer has suddenly lost the ability to connect wirelessly when safety was created to WPA2-PSK. The network has been configured this way for more than a year.

    I have almost solved this problem on mine (I had read about changing of security in a different post), but ran into a hiccup because of Safari. For some reason, Safari prohibited access to a menu page for my router security settings. You can imagine how boring it is to look at the HP Support use Firefox to access the router and do what a mouse click more, and then I had to make the change. So, if you make this change, be sure not to use Safari to access the gateway of the router Technicolor. Use Chrome or Firefox.

  • Re: Satellite L670 loses the wireless connection

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L670 - 1 H 1, a new laptop that runs Windows 7, with all the drivers and software uptodate, including the wireless card.

    I have a BT Home Hub 3 with an Edimax EW 7416APN v2 300 m range extender to help boost the signal in the kitchen area.

    The laptop works fine when I stay in the room where the reception centre. If I move in the kitchen the laptop will usually lose the wireless connection after a few minutes and I cannot get it back unless I turn the LAPTOP works and return to the Home Hub.

    I see no obvious reason to this problem. Two other laptop computers used in the home, more a smartphone stay connected with full signal in every corner of the House, at any time.

    I have to use the range extender, but is it possible that the laptop Toshiba just don't hear well with it?

    Any advice would be welcome.

    Thank you
    Canton

    Hello Canton

    As you know quality of connection WLAN depends on different factors is not easy to say why you have this problem, WLAN. I use Toshiba laptops for a long time now and I didn't notice in the past some serious question of WLAN.
    For example I'm 4 router with standard g and have very good signal even in the cellar too or out in the back yard.

    If possible, try to test the WLAN connection elsewhere. Maybe your friends have WLAN routers so you can test it.

    You have a new router or old?
    What WLAN standard do you use (b/g/n)?

  • all-in-one 7510 loses the wireless connection

    We just bought a HP Photosmart 7510. She created fine with a wireless connection to our office for Vista 64-bit. After awhile, he loses the wireless connection. If I close the printer then turn on again, it resets the connection and works very well. I read that it can lose connection if it goes into sleep mode, and it seems that is what is happening. My question is, is there a way to keep the impression of loss of connection or enter the mode 'sleep'? Or do we have to put the printer only whenever we wanted to print, copy or scan? If so, the printer is adjustable to disable instead of switch mode 'sleep'?

    Already set to 'off '. I found this thread http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Networking-and-Wireless/7510-photosmart-printer-energy-mode/m-p/1230681/highlight/true#M33814 I tried this and so far it works and has not lost its connection.

  • Inspiron N5110 loses the wireless connection

    My Inspiron N5110 loses the wireless connection frequently. We have many other devices in the House - laptops, iPhones, etc. - who continue to operate perfectly through the router even when I lose my connection.

    Richard.Kelly,

    The Intel Centrino Wireless - N 1030 adapter works ONLY on 2.4 GHz

    How to connect to your wireless router I use these settings to the recommended wireless router I use channel 11. I have a new SSID to connect easier.

    You can also try these settings...

    Go to the drivers & downloads , enter your service tag, and then select your operating system. Under network, download and install the latest drivers.

    Try these tweaks...

    Start, Control Panel, Manager of devices. Click Network and then right click on your wireless network adapter, on the left, click on properties, power management. Uncheck the allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.

    Go to the options power and changed the wireless adapter setting, adjustment of maximum power for maximum performance.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 loses the wireless connection

    I have a 8600 OfficeJet Pro (n911a), which has lost its connection with the PC. The computer is running Windows 7 (64) and work very well for several months. Recently, when you try to print, the following message is displayed. I did several searches on the web and found that this has been a problem in class, but no clear solution. The only thing I tried was changing layout alarm ink 'always' to 'then of printing"that someone has suggested, but that did not help. Other bids I found indictate that this problem occurs when the printer is idle for a few hours, but restart it restores. This isn't the case here. The following error message:

    Any advice/suggestions/etc are welcome. Thank you in advance.

    Well, the problem was solved by uninstalling the software, and then reinstall the latest version of HP.

    The only reason why that I did not it was in the first place because many comments I've seen on this issue before said they had already tried that and it didn't work. So, I didn't see no reason to waste my time trying something that might take a lot of time with little chance of success. However, the printer in question was still under warranty, so I was able to communicate directly with HP and it's what they me ultimately do. I was online with them for nearly 90 minutes to try other things first, but this is what worked in the end.

    If you decide to try it yourself, I would say that you do not forget to completely uninstall the current version first. The tech. I chatted with told me that it would be unnecessary, but do not do so caused several other problems. I finally had to do a system restore, and then try again until it would work.

    So far so good.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: is the Officejet Pro 8600 wireless compatible with the new standard AC dual routers.

    ISP is the Modem upgrade to DOCSIS 3.0 model. My current router, Linksis E 3200 is not fully compatible with the new modem, I have to upgrade to a model of AC Smart WiFi dual band.

    The wireless in this 8600 printer is compatible with the standard AC. If this is not the case, can it be upgraded via download to make the wireless compatible. Top of my head I have think.

    The wireless connection in the Officejet Pro 8600 is compatible with 802.11n connection on the 2.4 Ghz band.  Check your new router (or candidates for a new router), most routers AC will be also in charge of N connections.

  • Printing HP Officejet Pro 8600 stuck in the queue - Wireless Intermittent

    We have a HP Officejet Pro 8600 (CM947A) that we used it for several years without problem.  I use the version of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.  We have two PC that print wireless.  There were several days of work began to get stuck in the print queue of the printer for both PC to print.  I can cancel the printing of the queue, but the next task will be stuck again.  I print Microsoft Word documents contain a single sentence.  The problem goes away if I restart the printer, but the problem comes back the next morning.  I have re-installed the software print and changed the channel on the router on channel 8 that uses the null in the region.  The printer firmware is up-to-date.  The HP printing software and doctor Scan has not solved the problem. The indicator on the right side of the printer's pale blue wireless is enabled when the problem occurs.  When print jobs are stuck in the queue, I can not connect to the printer by typing the IP address in a browser window.

    This problem has been resolved by the above phone support number.  We have solved the problem by changing the encryption on the router to WPA2 to WPA + WPA2.   The router is a Belkin Wireless G Plus MIMO Router P57746-B.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600: communicating with the help of consumption on HP products

    My immediate problem is that my printer does not print after installing new HP ink cartridges. It worked very well, and I had a weak color and a black ink supply, so I replaced all the.

    The biggest problem is that we cannot reach, talk, email or instant message someone connected remotely to HP.

    They have a shield until molasses made up a wall of 40 regions, departments or products, followed by a re - direct to sub contract of sale or repair companies that appear when you try to click on certain areas to help.

    It is very difficult to get real help from HP directly.  Sales and marketing and promotion.  It is senseless to have an image of high class and the name and not standing behind your product, service, information or assistance.

    It makes people go to another brand name in the future.  I have a HP4215 printer / a 4180printer of HP and an Officejet PRO 8600 wireless printer, a HP Pavilion CPU and an HP laptop.  But for the life of me, I can't reach everyone out there to tell me how to fix or troubleshoot the product.  And tryng to find a local repair for printers? Is not the case.

    So MY question is, either A) how to make a rep from HP to contact me about my problems, or B) how to get the most money for my HP products when I jump from another brand that has the customer service?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    My systems are all running Mac OS X 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion). I have a Linksys E4200 configured for 5 GHz Wireless-A and 2.4 GHz Wireless-G. For testing purposes, I have firewall of the router disabled.

    Here's what I CAN do:

    -connect to the Web server for the printer (printer is correctly connected to the wireless network)

    -print using ePrint (printer running mechanically)

    What I can not do:

    -Install the printer in OS X

    -printing of my office/computer systems portable

    -printing of my devices via AirPrint

    I tried the following:

    -reset the network settings on the printer

    -restart the router

    -restart all systems

    Error messages:

    -System preferences print & Scan shows the printer as "near printers: Officejet Pro 8600 [CBE189].

    -in installation "settings until 'Officejet Pro 8600 [CBE189]" configuration of the device... ". "returns with"Unable to communicate with the printer at the moment"and I have to cancel installation

    Too bad! Solution found - unplug the power cord, wait 30 seconds, plug it in again. Pop, it works. (So old-school)

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus: software the Printer Wizard does nothing and eats CPU

    Hello

    I currently have a problem with the HP printer Assistant software. I use a HP Officejet Pro 8600. Well I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, redownloaded the latest version of the software from the HP site, tried with a wireless connection and a USB connection, but still have this same problem.

    The problem is when I open the printer to the printer Assistant software (scan, definition of printing preferences, etc.) nothing loads and what I noticed is that in the Task Manager, the program is constantly, nonstop to duplicate in the Task Manager and eventually slow down the computer because of the high use of the processor of these duplicates. I can't stop these processes in time compared to the amount of tasks in doubles at this very moment, and the only way to stop it is to restart the computer. I had this problem with Windows 8.1 and so I've upgraded to Windows 10 but exactly the same problem occurs. If I wait long if I get an error (0xc0000142) telling me that I can not load the Printer Wizard, but the process will still duplicate.

    I tried using the printer with other computers, but they do not have a problem by launching the wizard from the printer. I wonder what is happening and why is the Printer Wizard launch multiple neverending himself as tasks on the Task Manager?

    Add to that, printing works fine, it is train to launch the Printing Assistant software that is causing the problem.

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600: Scan - disable the 'Save' button with MAC OS 'SIERRA '.

    Hello world

    I have an Officejet Pro 8600 installed in a Macbook pro.

    After having upgraded to Mac OS Sierra (10.12) 'Save' button in the HP scanning software is now disabled when the save screen appears. Save documents are possible using the 'Test' option in the menu "Preferences".

    It worked fine with the latest version of 'El Captain'.

    I've searched for scanning HP new version for Mac OS Sierra, but nothing.

    Someone has any idea how to solve this problem?

    TKS in advance.

    Hello
    The HP scanning application is not compatible with Sierra, so you may experience problems.
    Remove the HP scanning by moving it to the trash, then empty the trash.

    Instead install HP Easy Scan below, it will be installed in the Applications folder:
    http://FTP.HP.com/pub/softlib/software12/HP_Quick_Start/OSX/installations/Essentials/HP-easy-scan-1_7_0.pkg

    If you experience additional problems, ensure that the latest version of the software is installed by following HP Easy Start below:
    http://FTP.HP.com/pub/softlib/software12/HP_Quick_Start/OSX/applications/HP_Easy_Start.app.zip

    Finally, make sure that your drivers are up-to-date by clicking the Apple icon, select about this Mac and then press on software update.
    Click on the Bank on the menu bar, click Reload Page, click all update if an update is available.

    Kind regards
