Impossible to activate the Scan of the computer on OfficeJet pro 8500 A910

Impossible to activate the "scan to computer" on HP OfficeJet Pro 8500. Used to be able to. It's not even a choice on the Printer Wizard. I uninstalled completely and reinstalled. It worked until I rebooted. I can scan very well to the computer, but not the printer. Running Windows 7

Hey daltsdad,

It seems that you have the old version of the software for this printer. There was an update that came out not so long ago that may be missing on your system. Please uninstall the printer software and reinstall it with the link below:

  • Cannot install Officejet Pro 8500 A910 on the network in my laptop Windows XP


    Resolved, not resolved.

    I talked to HP technical support. The Officejet Pro 8500 A910 will not install on Windows XP (at least the home edition) when networked through a router. It will install via USB. I uninstalled the program and reinstalled with only USB connected to clear all printer/scanner of network information. Product support claimed it would install through an ether net cable connected between the printer and the computer, but it does little good if you need internet access.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 Premium will not send fax from computer with Windows 8

    My printer was working fine on Win XP and I could fax directly from the printer or the computer.  I installed 8 32-bit Windows (I am under an older system that works very well for everything that I use it for - thank you very much) and downloaded the latest driver for HP large & software for Win 8 32-bit.  Everything works perfectly, except for the computer fax.

    If I run the test of the printer fax, the fax test PASSES.  If I run the test fax from the computer, the fax test PASSES.

    If I put documents into the feeder of the printer and use the features of fax printer, it Fax beautifully.

    It's only when I fax from the computer, the screen appears with the status of the queue, then state turns to cancelled each time.

    He has always worked on Win XP.

    The FAX and FAX printer driver for the printer-FAX appeared in Control Panel automatically when I installed the HP drivers/software update.  All the properties of the FAX printer seem good.

    I tried a usb connection and a connection of network ethernet, with the same results.

    Printing and scanning all work fine.  I really like this printer and I love it even more if I could figure out how to get by fax a document from the computer.

    When I say fax from the computer, I mean opening a document saying print, select Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910, filling the page of information by fax, selecting my cover page options and press send fax.  Everything like I used to do it before I upgraded to Win 8.  When I hit send fax, it is when I get the popup that fax is in queue, then it goes to cancelled.  No error codes are displayed, no clue as to why, no nothing.  If I print the document and put it in the printer tray I can using display printer fax without problem.

    Very weird.

    Well, I spoke with some of the engineers, and they suggested next steps. First of all, here's a thread on a forum of MS on the removal of an alternate driver.

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc730875.aspx

    Another thing to note is that in Win8, you can easily access the command prompt by pressing the windows key and typing "command prompt".

    In addition, I will PM you walk a few others on the removal of the remains of the software from the back-end of your PC. To be sure, you will need TO follow these instructions to the letter.

    Do these two things and let me know what happens after the installation of the printer again since the direct download link I already provided above.

    Let me know and have a great day!

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910 will not scan to folder - Windows 8 Pro

    I upgraded my HP M9500Y PC from Windows 7 to Windows 8 Pro.

    My printer is HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910.  In Windows 7, all the functions of print/scan/fax worked perfectly.

    Windows 8, printing without problem, however, analysis of the file function fails.

    When a document is scanned, the printer seems to be analysis correctly, but the destination folder contains a file of length zero with the new file name.  I tried the formats PDF and JPEG scans.  All attempts to produce files of length zero in the destination folder.

    I tried to change the path of the destination folder by replacing the address IP for the name of the PC, but that made no difference.  The destination folder is shared correctly on the Windows network and the configuration utility based on the web of HP for the digitization of records indicates that all tests have passed.

    What is the sequence of installation for Windows 8 will accept scan-to-folder operations.

  • Want 5540: Impossible to activate the computer Scan: 5540 Envy, MacOS 10.12

    I tried to activate the Scan of the computer using the HP utility application settings. I received the message (in part), "HP software required for the Scan of the computer could not be located on this computer. Please download and install the latest software recommended HP... ».

    I then proceeded to the HP website and downloaded the appropriate firmware update. When running the executable, I received the message (in part) "device is in an error state and cannot be flashed because of this... »

    NB., we have been able to print using this printer, Wi - Fi, easily, since the purchase and installation on 28/08/16. No problem. In addition, using the * Apple * settings, by selecting 'Printers and Scanners' and going through the routine of "Scan", I can acquire a successful analysis (placed in "jpg" format in the 'Images' folder).

    I'm so concerned - very disappointed - as to why I can't activate and use the "Scan to computer" utility from HP. It does not work from the laptop computer side or from the printer control panel.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910 a: the printer screen is locked on the "new cartridge HP installed.

    I tried powering off the printer and reinsert the cartridge several times as suggested. Printer will print from the computer or scan using the computer, but without the homescreen on the printer, you can make a copy or send a fax.

    OK by tapping on the screen of the printer does nothing. It should go to the home screen.

    The Firmware installed in the printer is LRP1FN1231AR

    Just turn off the printer has not solved the problem. I tried severasl times.  I tried a variant and it worked.  I replaced the 2 with the 'old' new ink cartridges. A new message appeared on the screen indicating that the cartridges were more ink.  I then reinstalled the cartridges 'new '. and received a message that "used cartridges have been installed. I then put off the printer using the procedure by the Doc and it worked. After the printer on the home screen appears allowing all features (copy, scan, fax and Apps) to work.  I printed a few pages in color before trying this, so my new cartridges have been used.

  • Upgrade of Windows 8 results in 0kb (empty) scan files, Officejet Pro 8500 A910

    It's totally weird.  I used my printer wide for analysis while on the original install on Windows 7.  I always use the touchkeyboard of 8500 and "scan to network folder" and put in a file name.  After 8 of Windows Installer, I get the name of file in my directory, but the pdf file shows 0kb and will not open.  I installed the new driver.  I ran the 'Scan' doctor and he says that everything is OK.  Printing works fine.  I'm on a wireless home network.  Scanning to a device memory works OK and scan using the HP printer Assistant works OK.

    Earlier, I tried scanning a doc 4 page to my folder of network again.  I'm not usually in my monitor when scanning, but this time, I noticed that the 0 KB file, with my correct file name, appeared in the designated scan Directory before the end of the analysis.

    I don't do this.  I really don't know what to look for.

    The only thing I can think of at this point would be an another full uninstall, but this time go in Program Files and program (x 86). Once you are in each file, remove the HP folder. Then, access devices and printer and make sure that the printer is not yet listed under Server properties. Then, run a registry cleaner to clear the odds of a room be left behind. Finally, restart the computer and try to reinstall the printer. Let me know what happens.

  • Internittent print, job hangs in the symptoms of Q, Officejet Pro 8500 A910, on 2 pc's Win.

    Hiya. Win 7 on 2 machines (all updates applied), WiFi, Avast running, Defender disabled, to update the latest firmware and drivers (both PC), HP print and scan sometimes Dr. said everything is good. But if there is a hung job in Q it is said "issues addressed" with no details and yet nothing changes (work still in Q). If I unplug the printer and turn off the PC and then launch printer, then start PC it prints a few jobs then stops them from the Q to the printer. Jobs will be based in the Q indefinitely.

    When a work is hung in Q the printer displays the Red 'X'. By pressing the 'X' and turning off the job at the printer do not help, the next task remains in Q.

    All the thoughts I have send the printer to fish?

    Thank you, Dana

    Heya 8lives,

    BATCH FILES!

    I bow down you good gentlemen/ladies. And here I thought that the batch files were dead... ahhh... my tongue (said of my age and BONE).

    Anyway... with minor mods (path), the clearing of the Q did the trick I could open and watch as the two jumped in, and then the q files.

    I'll always keep an eye out for anything that may have caused the Q to keep the files in the 1st place, but the command quickie file is worth its weight in gold.

    Thanks to you all!
