• HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus - Duplex printing problem

  I use a printer Officejet Pro 8600 Plus (what is the best printer I've ever had, apart from this problem!).  I use it with Windows 8.1.

  He struggles for more than a few pages print using duplex.  The problem seems to get worse when I print a pdf file.  It starts to print very well and made a few pages, but then I get this message "error on HP Officejet Pro 8600.  "Could not print * name * folder.  It appears on the computer not the printer.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Hey there @operationorphan

  I just wanted to add my own suggestions here for the issue of two-sided printing that you had with your Officejet 8600.

  You can try to update the firmware: get the latest Firmware and updates

  If this does not help, try to uninstall the printer software , reboot the PC and reinstall the printer. This should dissipate all software problems.

  I hope that helps!

  If troubleshooting doesn't help not solve your problem, then I would say call the HP Technical Support to see all the other possibilities for you. If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions: click here.

• I've recently updated to Mac OS x 10.6.8. Now, my HP Photosmart C6280 print only on one side.

  I did a duplex for years, and it's actually one of the features of the printer that I use most often.  It's very upsetting to access this feature disappear.

  I went to < system="" preferences="" print="" options&supplies="" driver=""> > and titled "HP" accessory of double-sided (duplexer) printing is checked.

  I unchecked it and closed, then reopened and checked system preferences box of printing double-sided again.  No change.

  I have restarted the computer - no change.

  Simply the "duplex printing" option does not appear in the print dialog box.

  My update of the Apple software is up-to-date.

  What should I do?

  I found another post on this forum, on scanning not working not not under Snow Leopard ("MacBook Pro Snow Leopard OS HP C4280 not sweeping").  There was a response from a staff member of HP who introduced me to the "washer".  I've "cleaned" all HP applications, then re-installed Apple (not HP) and - to my great relief - duplex printing control finally appeared in the print dialog box.  I have now printed both sides successfully, and the case is resolved.

  I enclose a link to the forum where the useful answer:

• DeskJet Pro 8600: Ink black print only via Mac OS x 10.10 Officejet Pro 8600

  My Pro Deskjet 8600 is low on ink Cyan but I am trying to print a document Word in black and white using only the black ink cartridge, which is full. I found the setting on my Mac and you have selected "Black Ink Only", but the printer says that I still need to replace Cyan print. Why should I Cyan to print in black and white? Please tell me that I shouldn't keep all 4 full ink cartridges just to print in black and white? See the screenshots below.

  

  

  Hello

  The ink is required for the printer to use, you need to replace an empty ink cartridge to continue printing.

  You can read the article which explains this requirement:

• HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911a: E Print email address

  Hello

  Don't know if anyone can help. My 8600 has had a problem which was under warranty so I call HP just reset my printer that tell me to try it. Unknown to me my eprint information was wiped out too. Before I had time to put things up once again the problem came back and so I rang again HP who sent me to a different printer. I changed the printer and tried to set up eprint, which he gave me a new eprint email address. I tried to put my old email address in, but he said that he had been taken (Yes by me). I looked in help, but having said that you will need to print the code of the old printer to move it to a new.  After putting all the bits in the old printer it says that my original settings for eprint had been cleaned, I guess it was when I did the reset. Now how to get back my original email.

  Any help will be much appreciated.

  @Biggleswick

  I'm sorry, you've been around the block on this several times - and it is good that you now have a printer that works.

  The bad news: the algorithms (code) used by the email ePrint software do not re - use your new ePrint email address - even if it's your own e-mail address.

  You must assign a new ePrint email address whenever you need to reset your ePrint for some reason email address if it's your fault that the custom address has been lost / reset / manhandled.

  Perhaps this restriction will be modified in the future... It is hoped for that to be the case.  Grumble, grumble, book the mouse on the desktop...

• OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911a: Can print / copy in colour, but not black

  Last night, tried to make a copy of the Officejet directly black and got a page of black streaks almost completely dark.  Tried to copy the same document in color and got a nice copy.

  Today, I tried scanning a document from hp on my computer software.  Got the same streaks.  Scanned in color and got a good clear scan.

  It may be dirt on the glass which would affect color and black too, right?

  Grayscale printing is fine.

  How can I solve the problem?

  No worries on forget everything shuts off and turns back on.

  I saw the power of the printer and the new solve a lot of problems, but it's the first time I've seen do so solve the problem with black streaks.

  One thing that I would check if it happens again is to make sure that the printer is plugged directly into a wall outlet, not a surge protector. Copy and scan functions can behave a bit strange if the printer does not have enough power.

  I'm glad that you all fixed. If you need anything else please let me know, otherwise have a great day!

• HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911a, no PC Interface to the printer

  Win 7 Home Premium, 32-bit and 64-bit PCs, wireless connection to the printer OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911a.

  When clicking on the icon of the desktop printer, or to access the HP program in the start menu, MS Notepad opens the interface instead of the interface coding. It's a constant problem since the installation of the software in November 2012. The software has been installed on all three 3 PCs with the disc that came with the printer. All three 3 PCs suffer the same problem of no interface, only Noptpad with the code.

  I uninstalled the drivers and firmware (using Revo) completely and reinstalled from the HP Support download site. The problem remains.

  The interface of Scan function works perfectly in the start menu.

  Other than that, the printer works fine when access to it to print from the sites, as well as the printer works perfectly with all functions when using the control panel touchscreen printer.

  Any suggestions or help appreciated.

  Hi Bobhist,

  I understand that you have a 8600 Officejet which is not able to open the wizard in the printer on 3 different computers. I'm sorry to hear what is happening, but I'd be happy to help you!

  I would recommend you have a look through this HP Printer Wizard opens with an error in Script or in Notepad and you should then be able to use everything as planned.

  Hope this helps, have a nice week end

• HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911a will not print from Windows 8.1

  I have a HP printer Officejet Pro 8600 N911a that returns the 72234 error code everytime I try to print a document from my Windows 8.1 desktop (HP 1520 t).

  Also, there is a single instance of error code 74899

  The same document prints fine on my Windows 7 Desktop and my Windows 7 Netbook.

  Firmware of the printer is: CLP1CN1416AR

  Firmware from the Support Page of the printer appears as: CLP1CN1322CR (2014-07-18)

  What should I do next to be able to print from my computer Windows 8.1.

  Steve

  Note: This is the first issue I had with this printer that was bought a year ago.

  Hello Steve, I hope you're well

  Thanks for getting back to me with your info!

  Yes, I would first of all, running the wizard of wireless configuration from the front panel of the printer (installation program, Menu, Assistant wireless network), make sure that the printer is connected to your network, then proceed to uninstall the printer, restart the PC and reinstall them both back on your computer.

  I hope that this is the solution!

  Have a great Monday!

  We have a mixed network of PC and Mac at home.  The PC and iMac are connected by a cable network and a Netgear router.  The iMimi is to connect through a router Apple Airport wireless and was able to print on the printer. The PC and printing to the printer very well. I just bought an old iMac problem and have send files to print.  The iMac and can see the printer on the network.

• HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911A: firmware

  I have a HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911a

  Serial No. [personal information]

  Product # CN578A

  Service ID: 23174

  Firmware version: CLP1CN1435AR

  QUESTION: Is the original firmware that came pre-installed on this printer purchased on 06/23/13.

  To be honest, I had problems with the operation of the printers over time, successfully resolved.

  I am led to understand that a later version of its Firmware is available. If that is correct, do I need?

  What are its advantages? How I did it acquire? Will receive installation instructions?

  There are further problems with the new Firmware? Thank you in advance for your help!

  ultimately, here's what happens: I had the chance to find a link on the site of "BD" that has allowed to circumvent the 'salary aid Tech' (involved only) help. For linking real chat... I got a tech, explained what was going on, he asked me to open Bitdefender a page says, asked what he's been selected... then instructed me to change about 3 settings. "BD" to close and reopen it... then try to access then asked me to test the "computer scan"... It worked like a charm! Apparently, BD software with the settings of the Moose saw an intrusion unauthorised and killed the linlk from computer to printer/scanner and killed the link.

  Once, I didn't know what to do in the future, everything worked fine... I can't tell you how many hours I spent with other BD technicians and HP is trying to solve this problem.  So, now I can place a document (etc.) on the printer scan window, go back to my computer open the link and the Voirledocument and adjust the scan size, part of the image, size and other graphic possibilities.    Because by sheer luck, I found a link to chat with a technician who knew their product and in a few minutes (not hours) directed me to a resolution that no cost me $ $ no matter what.

  Than k you, Lucien of Bit Defender!

• HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911a - two-sided copies

  I'm eager to take a two originals face and make a copy of both sides.  When I press the ECO button it says that this option is disabled.  I can't understand how to turn it on.

  Hello chogan

  The ADF on the Officejet Pro 8600 N911a doesn't have the possibility to make a double-sided copy. This is because the ADF doesn't have a duplex unit to get the original in paper and flip so that the other side can be copied.

  You can make copies front and back of the dumpster by setting the option and flipping the page once the first side is copied.

• OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911a: N911a of suddenly unable to analyze HP

  I have an Officejet Pro 8600 N911a who, until a few days ago, was fully functional on my home wireless network. I am running Windows 10 on my computer. Out of the blue, the analysis feature has become non-functional 2 days ago, give me a message on the printer that the function computer scanning was enabled on the computer. Unable to solve this problem through managing the digitization of printing software to computer section, I finally uninstalled the HP software and downloaded the full setting software and driver package on the HP site for a new installation and configuration. I have had no problem adding the printer and its connection to the network through devices and printers in Control Panel 10. As before, I can print without problem, but when I try to scan, the printer status screen informs me that the function computer scanning must be enabled via the printer software. My current situation is that when I run the printing software, it goes immediately to the printer configuration screen and then hangs on 'check the network environment,' let me do the software already installed. So it seems to me went from bad to worse, because I have more access to the software is of the other features, such as ink cartridge levels. I looked online for a solution for 2 days now without success, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  Good news! Rerun the Print and Scan doctor was a complete and utter success! The printer is now on the network with full functionality restored, as well as for printing, as well as windows. Sunshyn2005, I can't thank you enough for the time and effort that you put into this! Thank you very much!!!
