HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus change the default print settings.

I would like to change the default settings for printing to the project and in grayscale. Is there anyway to do then do not forget to do the changes for each printed page?

Using Windows XP OS.

Thank you in advance.

Hello AllAmerican1347

If you go to the control panel and printers and fax machines, you should see the printer there. Right-click on the printer and select Properties. If you define the settings here, it should be the global default.

Tip If you want to print ink black only some printers require that you select black ink only after choosing grayscale.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus - Can no longer print with my Mac

    I have been using a printer HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus via my MacBook Pro (OS X Yosemite version 10.10.4) for about two years with no problems until recently.  Since a few days ago, I'm more able to print wireless, despite the fact that the printer is connected to the network.  Interestingly, the print queue reflects the print job completed, but pages do not print.  In my attempts to solve the problem, I have (i) restore factory settings and re-written information of network required on the printer; (ii) disconnected the printer and waited five minutes;  (iii) unplugged and reset the router. (iv) deleted and reinstalled the software and drivers printer on my laptop.  My laptop is in communication with the printer as evidenced by my ability to scan using HP Scan wireless, but I'm unable to print the document once it is scanned.  Finally, I am able to print the network settings Page in the menu of the printer, but not the printer web page... I get an error message saying 'the printer is busy. Try again later.  Any ideas to fix this frustrating problem would be greatly appreciated.  I apologize if my descriptions are not technically accurate because I am a novice when it comes to computers and networks.  Thanks a lot for your help.

    Thank you for your response and suggestions. I really appreciate it.  You beat me to the punch... only a few hours ago, I was able to get the printer working again... but I forgot to update my post.  As you recommended, I have reset the printing system, downloaded a new driver... hpprinterdriver3.1.dmg... added a new printer... restart the printer, my router and my laptop... and the printer from work once again from my Mac.  Yet once again, I appreciate your efforts... Bravo.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus will not be printed

    I just bought a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus, and I've connected two PC and two iPads to it.  I also plugged on my Macbook Pro (iOS 10.6.8), but unlike four other devices, the Macbook will not print.

    The Macbook watch the installed printer, sends the print job, but nothing prints.  I reinstalled the printer, the driver updated and reset the system print, all nothing will do.   I know that the Macbook and printer can communicate because I can print a test page for the HP utility in the browser.

    You do not know this information helps, but I have observed in anticipation of eventually being removed from their own print jobs.  I also noticed that, strangely enough, a print job will appear in the queue, I try to print the levels of power, but I was not initialized it.

    What Miss me?

    (Btw, it's a wireless installation.  I read that others troubleshoot using a static address, but this isn't an option for me. My ISP router will not work with a static address.)

    After much research, I found someone else on this forum who has had the same problem and found a solution.  I post the link below in case someone comes on this post.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    Hello @jellyjr,
  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus slow to start printing

    The time of the first page is 39 seconds.  This time is usually listed as approximately from 7 to 14 seconds (not HP more which seems to have deleted it on their site!).  It's not a software or computer problem (even of computers different and various documents), the printer accepts the job immediately, and then starts whirrring and complain and think and a break of 40 seconds before eventaully starts printing.  I have re-installed software, reset the printer all to no effect.

    In addition, as reported by many others, he receives a paper jam when it comes out of standby, when there is no paper jam. Open and close the drawer and it works usually - but rehearsals then that on the next clock cycle.  HP?

    Yes, solved within HP repair shop.  They said there was a piece of paper stuck to the right behind the printer heads, forcing out of alignment and it seems that the printer has tried to change the route.  Fortunately subsequently he completely stopped printing so I took for repairs, which solved all the problems I had.

  • How to change the default print settings

    My settings print continues to change 50% print size.  How to set the default value to 100%?

    Hello Bill,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    It seems that what you want to do is to save your settings as a preset favorite. Not exactly define value by default, but easier than manually make changes every time you print. Take a look at this article to find out how that is done.

  • Changing icons (or removal) on the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus touchscreen

    Is it possible to change the order of the icons on the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus touch screen? Because I do not use the fax feature, I would like to move the icon to fax to the second page. If not, is it possible to remove all the icons (like the Fax icon)? Thank you

    Sorry, there is no way to change the order of the icons or delete the icons on the display screen. I understand that you do not use this feature, but there are some cases that you decide to change your mind you over a period of time.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

    I really want to THANK you ALL for READING THIS & YOUR TIME. So please help if you can...

    and ideas?

    Thank you, xxVEGASxx

    You can do a reset of the printer using the LED screen on the printer.

    Select Configuration, then Tools, then restore the default settings. "Restore default settings" is the last element of the list and you will have to scroll down to see it.

    Which erases all settings, including the password for the printer.

    To reset you describe is probably the one mentioned in this article:

    http://resetprinters.com/how-to-reset-the-HP-OfficeJet-Pro-8600-premium-all-in-one-printer/

    but it's probably a deeper reset that you really need anyway.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus does not connect through the Device Manager but will connect bij Win7.

    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus that works very well with some computers connected via ethernet.

    On a new computer with Windows 7 Ultimate edition, HP Device Manager can't find the printer, even when I give IP address.

    When I try to add a new printer network in Windows (add printer) windows detects the printer less than a second.

    I need the hp Device Manager configuration so I can use all the options off the officejet.

    Problem solved.

    The printer has a fixed IP address and the customer got his IP by DHCP. By dhcp, dns suffix has been changed so the printer dns suffix and the client does not mach.

    Now the printer receives its IP address by the dhcp server. The dhcp server always gives the same address to the printer.

  • HI, how can I scan a picture and only the witout the rest. On a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus?

    HI, how can I scan a picture and only the witout the rest. On a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus?

    When I scan I got my photo and all white for the rest of the screen

    It has no function of machine harvest in the 8600 software. To get the exact size, you will need to manually set the size for the scans that you do. You can find the setting by clicking on the blue link to advanced settings in the first scan window. Will take you to a place that will allow you to change the size of the scanning area. Hope that helps.
