HP Officejet Pro 8600: Printer and computer does not

Printer and the computer are connected to my internet provider.   Printer has good Wi - Fi and computer is connected via a cable.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer itself and updated the driver to a compatible with Windows 10.  Still can not print or scan wireless.  Disabled my McAfee firewall... and still not printing.  Finally plugged printer via a cable to my computer and now I can print, but I want to be able to use wireless.  Troubleshooting said something about update the IP address, but I don't know how to do this.  Help!?

Hello

Follow these steps:

1. click on the icons wireless

2. go to settings (gear icon)

3. in the next screen, you NEED to SCROLL before you can see the "default network".

See the example below:

Hope that helps.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600: Printer does not print in color

    I just got the color cartridges refilled at Costco. Now, my printer does not print in color.  I printed out a diagnosis and cartridges are showing that they are full.  The actual color of magenta is a deep rose, so I know that some of the magenta is crossing. Cyan (blue) and yellow printed black on diagnostic tests.  I know that Costco filled cartridges with the appropriate color because I can see the color on/in the cartridge.  Suggestions on what to try? I bought the printer on January 27, 2013.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 causes the computer cursor indicate that the system is busy (turning circle)

    I have connected the Officejet pro 8600 printer to my wireless home network and continuously now the cursor on the computer will indicate that the system is busy producing a turning circle every 5 to 10 seconds. The computer is running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit operating system.  I went to the Task Manager on the computer and has determined that a file named HpNetworkCommunicator.exe is the origin of the problem in cycling on and off (looking for a signal). I turned on the printer and the file remains on and the problem is solved. However, I don't want to leave the printer at any time, is anyway to stop this file from the search for the printer when the printer is turned off?  Thanks in advance.

  • OfficeJet pro 8600 print a single vertical black line when using the charger

    OfficeJet pro 8600 print a single vertical black line when using the charger

    Hi @realestatejeann,

    I see that you have found one black vertical line when using the ADF. With a few steps, we should be able to solve this problem.

    Make sure that the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (do not use a hub or a surge protector) This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.

    Here is a document for the cleaning of the glass Strip and the underside of the scanner cover.

    Vertical stripes, lines or streaks on Copies, faxes or scans.

    If you need help, let me know.

    Good day!
    Thank you.

  • Problem with HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer - HELP Please!

    Help!

    I installed a new set of cartridges (black and color) in my printer HP Officejet Pro 8600 today and now it won't print a document.  I did everything I knew to do that isn't much.  I even uninstalled and reinstalled the printer without success.  I am a 71 year grandmother, who is working on a project for my grandson.  A kind person out there in cyperspace could you please give me some advice on how to restore my printer?  Thank you! Sharon-

    I'm so bad that down below where I have to select a category, I don't know even what to check, because I don't think my problem apply to one of them.  It's just a problem with a printer.  Will you please excuse anything I check because I do not know and there is no "miscellaneous" category

    Thank you very much for the reply.  After "fiddling around" with the cartridges, uninstalling and reinstalling etc, I finally got to work.

    Thanks again for your response!  I appreciate your time!

  • OFFICEJET PRO 8600: PRINTING BLACK AND WHITE ONLY

    Printer does not print in black and white only, even if this option has been selected by "Printer properties" or "Printer Preferences".

    Please read this post then provide some details.  There the error messages on the computer screen or the printer?

    The Officejet Pro 8600 series has separate heads for printing and ink supplies.  To protect the print head of damage the printer requires all inks to be present to print in black only.  If one or more of the inks are exhausted, they must be replaced to allow printing.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 - Print margins are off, slow and noisy printing

    I have problems printing my printer HP Officejet Pro 8600. When I am able to print the process is extremely slow and the printer made a lot of noise before and during printing. In addition, the margins are off compared to those on the document itself. The left margin is so great that it is cut a part of the document on the right side. I tried to unplug and restart the device and it is set back to the factory, but the questions remain. I printed a test page and it looks good, but speed, noise and margins continue to be a problem. How can I fix these problems?

    Thank you!

  • How are added to the HP Officejet Pro 8600 printing solution Center

    The center of printing solutions shows my Photosmart C5580.  No idea how to add an OfficeJet Pro 8600?

    Shlomi Hi and thanks for a quick response.

    I had hoped to add 8600 Solution Center as an HP upgrade / download link in the menu Wizard printer you mention using the icon, re - set the default printer for the "8600 Fax.

    He also changed the list of this menu screen to be only four: HP printer Asst (but does nothing when a click), Set Prefs, see what printing and the printer to customize.

    Previous menu, as you no doubt refers, had several printer features that included all submenu links functions, I used (including to scan a doc, preferences, etc.).  Frustrating...

    After uninstalling and reinstalling, tweaking, etc, I always have this quick menu by clicking on the icon of tune.  I have tried different methods of scanning as the right click on the printer in Control Panel devices, but the scanning from which lead to a horrible list of basic functions, a confusing list of formats, etc.

    Finally, I did a scan in the screen menu of the printer who made a point "scan" in the Start Menu, I right click it to pin that on the Start Menu, then created a new shortcut on the desktop with the path to him... and now the icon / printer works to get the menu scanning.  Phew!

    About the loss of the Solution Center is regrettable.  Very handy tool to do the various tasks and the refinements of a scanned document that do not exist in the limited functions / buttons on the 8600 scan menu results.

    At the same time and while I'm... To the laserjet subject large workhorse of HP LJet 1320, several other positions and all forums have problems loss of functionality after passage from XP to Win7.  I finally got all but one device works (PCL6/5th, printing on both sides, etc.), but the pilot is only 600 dpi quality close to the project, instead of the prior 1200 dpi (especially good for forms, thin fonts, etc..).  Which is just a discharge on the technology and support for the products that brought me as a customer to use HP in the first place.

    Thanks again for your reply and your suggestions.  Ready to try anything to solve the so-called reliable downloads / upgrades.

    Best regards...

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 - Scan to computer

    Hello

    I recently bought a HP OfficeJet Pro 8600. Installation and configuration was successful. However, every minute or two, I get a notification of ball on the Windows task bar that says "Scan to computer do not enabled." I assume that this occurs because the printer is turned off after entering a sleep mode is not used for a specific period of time. I could be wrong about this, of course. But assuming that I'm not wrong, my question is how can I disable that irritating notifcation to appear every minute?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    1. open the control panel and write "Notification area icons" in the search:

    2. the Notification area options appears and select the option that says ""ScantoPCActivation " "

    3. Select the option that says 'Hide icon and notifications'.

  • Officejet Pro 8600 printing problem

    I bought my Officejet Pro 8600 on 4 June 2014. I use windows 7-32 bit, everything worked fine until June 25, when I got an error message when you try to print saying "unable to communiucate with printer. I ran out and the printer worked again. On June 27 the same message, but his time of 8 hours of troubleshooting has not solved the problem. During a clean reinstall everything if fine, green all ticks, then all at once the connection is lost, managed to print a document during this time, but then print to square 1. Sometimes the software automatically detects the Lan connection and sometimes I have to put the IP address but two methods fail after a short time. I closed my firewall, but that made no difference. Talked to my son who is a computer expert and it is strange to have the same problem with its HP printers, which it has failed to resolve yet. I am 72 years old and have reached the point of despair that nothing seems to work and I've only had the printer for 3 weeks, that I would really appreciate if you have a solution. cordially 2dx

    You run any type of anti-virus program?

    Create a new TCP/IP port with the static IP address assigned to the printer.
    Do not use the Port of discovery of HP created by the installation of the printer driver.
