HP Officejet Pro 8630: slow printing to the network

We got this printer about 5 months ago, set up as a network printer and all our workstations print to it very well, that this includes the machines Windows 7 & XP and a laptop computer. We had no problem until very recently, I installed an update that was supposed to be for instant ink program. This makes sure the xp machines could not print to it. I had to reset the printer to uninstall the update and this resovled the question at the beginning, but then he began to print slow - not like taking a lot of time to print a page, but by taking a lot of time between when you hit print and when he actually starts printing.  Yesterday (after all computers have an update of Windows installed) it began to take 30-45 minutes to a draw get to the printer. We currently have the printer connected via usb to one of the desktop and shared with the rest, but this isn't an ideal situation. We have tried to disable our anti-virus (Trend Micro) to see if blocking and it did nothing. You wonder how to do print as before?

Ironically, the question resolved itself after the second day. Computers and printers are closed every night. Thank you very much for all the links!

  • OfficeJet 8600 super slow printing on the network

    I have a Mac with os x installed Lion couple and uses the model of N911a of OfficeJect 8600 Pro. I have updated drivers recently so as current sound properly.

    Here are a few vitals:

    OS - 10.7.3

    Router: Apple Time Capsule

    He's averaging about 3 to 4 minutes per print page from any computer in the network. I guess that's not normal. How can I trouble shoot? I've seen messages on the definition of a static IP address that I do not know how.

    What suggestions do you guys?

    I suggest to set a static IP address for the printer:

    -Print a the front of the printer Network Setup Page. Note the IP address of the printer.
    -Enter the IP address in a browser to reveal the internal settings of the printer.
    -Choose the network tab, then wireless along the left side, then on the IPv4 tab.
    -On this screen, you want to set a manual IP address. You must assign an IP address outside the range that the router sets automatically (called the DHCP range). Yours is 10.0.1.2 a.200.  We use 10.0.1.220 for your printer.
    -Apply the subnet 255.255.255.0 (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
    -Enter the IP of your router (on the Page of the Network Config) for the gateway.
    -Enter for the first DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for second DNS.
    -Click 'apply '.

    Now, stop the router and printer, start the router, wait, and then start printing.

    After that, you will have to redo 'Add printer' using the new IP address.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8630: Test Print "error - printing".

    Hello

    I have problems printing in the main printer in my office, the HP Officejet Pro 8630. Some work colleagues print to this printer without problem, and others have gave up on it as well. I have no printing problem with HP Officejet Pro 8600 to an office close to home.

    I have finally connected to this printer manually, using its IP address, because it does not appear in the search "add a printer". When I try to do a test print, in the print queue of the printer window, it shows its status as 'Impression' for a brief moment before changing to "error - printing".

    Honestly I don't know what else to do without disturbing the few people who are successfully using this printer. I hate my work colleague whenever I need to use their printer bug.

  • Need help to set up officejet pro 8600 and scanning to the network on OSX Lion folder

    Hello

    I'm trying to implement my Officejet Pro 8600 more scan to a network under OSX Lion folder.  I have correctly set up the printer otherwise (and can scan and flown from my Mac).  I created SMB sharing as described in the documentation.  My only question is what to enter in the Web server of the printer when it asks for the network path of the shared folder.

    For example, I have the following shared folder:

    / Users/me/Documents/scans/Durable goods received

    on my computer that has name is:

    My iMac

    has an IP address:

    172.16.1.4

    wonder web server of the printer a network path (for example: \\mypc\sharedfolder) but I do not know how to translate my way above in the correct format.

    I tried the following:

    AFP://172.16.1.4//users/me/documents/scans/durable------Goods\ recipes

    but he doesn't like it.

    I also tried:

    Recipes of \\172.16.1.4\Users\bvz\Documents\scans\Durable of goods.

    Nothing helps.

    Thanks for any help or ideas!

    Hello

    First of all, make sure to install the latest firmware for the printer.

    SMBX (used by Lion sharing protocol) support added lately, and the device fails to access any forlder Lion shared with an older FW version:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02919168

    You have shared the folder durable goods received ?

    If so, I guess the correct path would be as follows:

    \\172.16.1.4\Durable goods received

    Please let me know of any changes,

  • OfficeJet Pro 8625 not connected to the network - no active web services

    Just bought this printer and cannot get the active web services! Keeps telling me printer not connected to the network. Printing and scanning very well. It is connected via USB.

    Hello

    You need to connect the printer to a network in order to enable Web Services, those who will not work with a USB connection, such as those that require an internet connection.

    You can follow the steps below to connect the printer to the network and configuration for the ePrint printer:

  • OfficeJet Pro 8630: Remove computers in the menu "scan to computer" on my OfficeJet 8630

    Hello

    I would like to know how to remove computers in the menu "scan to computer" on my OfficeJet 8630. Some of the computers on our network no longer exist, but they still appear in the menu display 8630 When you select the computer to send a scan to.

    Thank you

    Hi Rex63,

    Unfortunately, I see no way to delete these old connections in the printer menu.

    However, it seems that power the printer off and on again removes network printers in the scan list if they are not connected to the network.

    Looks like you could work in an office environment where the printer is still on, a reset of the base could do.

    If this does not work, you can also try a "hard reset" in which the printer is turned off and unplugged for 60 seconds.

    Finally, an update of the firmware is out for the Pro JO 8630 11/05/2016. If your printer does not have the auto-update feature enabled, you can try to update the firmware. You will find here the firmware update instructions.

    I hope that one of these solutions help!

  • OfficeJet Pro 6830 slow printing

    My officejet pro 6830 takes more than 1.5 minutes to print the first page to initiate a print job. Meanwhile, I hear the setting of the print head. This seems to be a very long time. Is this normal?

    Hi @Scott10,

    I'd love to help you with your 6830. I understand that it's slow to start printing and the print head seems to be adjusting before printing begins. Beginning of the rel by printing a self-test page and the time required to print:

    Help! It's so boring!

    Hello eli4,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.

    I understand that you are having a printing problem in Microsoft Word with your Officejet 8600. I will do my best to help you with this.

    I would say running the print and Scan Doctor.
    * Download and run the utility.
    * Select your printer in the list, press next
    * Select printing fix.
    It will detect and correct problems with printing.

    Then, I recommend you update your firmware to the printer. (Get the latest Firmware and product updates).
    After these two restarted the computer, and then test with your word documents.

    If your still having the problem, try uninstalling/reinstalling the printer software.
    Also, let me know if you encounter any errors. If you need help, I have to know if the printer
    connected USB or wireless.

    Thaks for posting on the HP Forums.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8610: Cannot print from the HP ePrint app on the Internet

    Hello

    I try to print using the HP eprint on my Android mobile application. I am able to print using the WiFi on my phone but when on the go, the app will not find the printer. The eprint service works correctly since I can print when sending an email to my address of email eprint even when I travel but the application won't work when the printer of the Internet access. The printer is connected to a cable modem, wireless. Is there a way to print through the Internet using the HP ePrint app?

    Thanks in advance

    Well after I asked a few friends with iPhones and Android devices to print over the Internet using the application, I noticed that everyone could.

    So, initially, I reset the printer to the factory setting and reconfigured it. It has resolved all the issues I've had both with built in the application to manage as well as my phone. Now I can normally use the HP ePrint app on the internet and printing.

    As a side note, I downloaded an update of the firmware to the printer and most probably caused problems, but, as says the resolved all factory reset.

    See you soon

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 n911a - configuration of the network folder

    Hi all!

    I ran into an interesting issue with my Officejet 8600.

    I wanted to network configuration scan to a folder hosted on our server running SBS 2011. We have a generic scan account that has read/write access to the server share, \\server\scans.

    I've set up the folder via the web interface of the printer.

    The problem is that when I test the connection, it always returns the same error: connection failed.

    I tried to use the IP address of the server instead, but nothing helped. I don't know if that helps any, but I see that it immediately gives me error when I use the IP address. When I use the name of the server, it takes a little longer to return the error.

    We use the account analysis for other printers on our network with no problems. I do not see any of what failure of audits on the server event logs, so I don't know if its still knock on the server.

    Any advice?

    BasikStuff, honestly one of the easiest ways to save the scans is that there is a direct Email to Scan app available via web services, which has streamlined save scans a lot.

    However, I would recommend reading this document:

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?objectID=c02588080&prodSeriesId=4214021

    It is written for LaserJet business, but the process should be similar for your printer as well.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8630 Cup image of the logo of my company in Word doc and Quickbooks invoice template

    My 8630 Pro of Officejet newly installed works fine except it won't print a picture of the logo in a Word doc and a Quickbooks invoice. The logo image is near the top of these two documents. I tried the full software and the base out of the site of HP driver. Nor will not work. I broke the 8630 K8600 driver and it printed the logo and the rest of the document correctly but real soon. I use this in a small business. My other 3 types of (all HP) printers print the same Word documents and invoices from Quickbooks without problem. Convert .pdf files works but is not an effective workaround solution in a business environment. The printer test page shows that I use mxdwdrv.dll name driver, config file UniDrvUI.dll and driver version 6.00. Ever run HP Update, Print & Scan doctor and confirmed the new firmware.

    Thanks for the tips. I had one of my guys call the support company and he now works correctly with the driver Deskjet 6980. I seems a little slower, but works perfectly for us. I think that the phone call was more than 2 hours.

  • OfficeJet 4630 does not print on the network

    My printer print is no longer on a network connection, a USB connection. For example, when I try printer in MS Word, the menu of the printer displays "Unable connect", even though I'm perfectly connected to my printer. I've had this printer for about two months, and it has been the case for at least a month. I ran "HP print and scan doctor, and he tells me that there is a driver conflict, but whenever I reinstalled the driver and all software, he repeats the same error message. I also run the program of "troubleshooting HP Installation failure - network", but to no avail. My PC is connected to my router via an ethernet cable, and my printer is connected to my router via a wireless connection, note that I've never had this problem until recently. All reports that I printed state that there is no problem with the connection or the printer, the signal is excellent. I rebooted my router, I reinstalled, I restored default on my printer.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8630: how to install additional color on the 8630 printer cartridges

    I just bought an Officejet Pro 8630 with additional color print cartridges.  I went through the instructions but I do not understand where they tell me to insert additional color cartridges.  I've looked everywhere but I still can't find where they need to be installed.  I installed the original color of 3 and 1 black cartridge supplied with the printer in the tray as shown, but when he got to the extra, I'm lost.  I can't find the instructions to install these additional color cartridges anywhere.

    Hello

    You cannot install additional color cartridges, the printer uses 4 ink cartridges (black, yellow, Magenta and Cyan).

    Additional color cartridges included in the box are intended for future use, once the original ink cartridges is exhausted.

    Kind regards
