Is it safe turn off an officejet pro 8500 a when not in service.

Is it safe turn off an officejet pro 8500 a when not in service. The electricity in my area off two or three times a day and every time that happens the printer begins once again reset. I'm afraid that whenever it cleans the printer heads is a waste of ink.

Hi fernan215,

Yes, turn off your printer when not in use. A fluctuation of current or failure can cause more damage to your printer when it is still on. You are also right that the printer is cleaning the heads and align the cartridges every time it is turned on. This is to ensure stability, good maintenance and calibration of your inks for the best output every time.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 was not found.

    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 bought more just. After you have installed on a HP Pavilion m8100n desktop, everything works but the scanner. I get this message "The HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 is not found". Spent 3.5 hrs on the phone with HP support, they think that this is a problem in microsoft software. If I uninstall and reinstall the HP software it will work until I restart the computer. I feel confident that all troubleshooting has been done with HP at this stage and not need to go further with them. I use Norton on the computer as well. Someone has ideas how to get this fixed a problem?

    Hi BradKeith,

    You can try to completely uninstall the printer and before you reaffirm the system try to download the drivers from the HP site and trying to install and check.

    You can also check if uninstalling and reinstalling the video card drivers solves the problem.

    Method 1:

    Step 1: Uninstall the drivers from programs and features

    a. click on start

    b. type appwiz.cpl in search, and then press ENTER.

    c. find the printer driver packages, right click and uninstall it.

    Step 2: Uninstall the drivers from Device Manager.

    a. click on start

    b. type devmgmt.msc in search, and then press enter

    c. in find Manager device for the device, right-click on it and select the option uninstall.

    Before restarting the system, try to install the latest drivers from the HP site and check.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=4083969&LC=en&cc=us&DLC=en&lang=en&cc=us

    Method 2:

    You can temporarily disable the Norton Security software and the firewall installed on the system and check.

    Note: Be sure to enable the security software on the computer after checking.

  • HP officejet Pro 8500 909: HP Officejet Pro 8500 909 has not scan after downloading Windows 10

    About 6 weeks ago, I downloaded Windows 10.  Today, I tried to analyze something and received the message "no Scan Options".  So I tried to go to the Hp Solution Center and who do not respond. When I was on Windows 7, I have had no problem scanning or with the HP Solution Center.

    Hello

    You will probably need to reinstall the HP software after an upgrade of the operating system.

    Please follow the steps for exactly the problem and check for the difference:

  • OfficeJet pro 8500 has more: Officejet pro 8500 has will not be printed sheets

    I have an Officejet Pro 8500 has more printer. I try to print the recipes on cards, but everytime I try to do my printer says "incorrect paper size" and then cancels the job. How can I fix it? I have a macbook... I don't know if it's part of the problem?

    Most programs running under OS X obey the size of default page defined by the Print Center/Printer Setup Utility preferences.

    A notable exception to this rule, however, is that Microsoft Word, which has its own system to decide what paper size to use.


    Change the default value of letter to A4

    Idea of what should be the default paper size is set in the Normal template.

    Go to Format > Document, and then press the button layout... .

    Set the size of A4 paper, and then press OK.

    Press the button by default... , answer Yes to the dialog box, and then press OK.

    - Source

    I imagine that this also applies to listings so instead of A4, you'd look for 4 x 6! Please let me know if that does the trick!

    You say that the problem occurs even when you print reports of self-test of the printer. Have you tried to print a report of quality printing under the Setup menu > reports to see if the problem appears in this report as well?

    In addition, see the document found here for the procedure help solve print quality problems.

  • 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.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909g do not receive the correct IP address of the DHCP server

    Hello

    We have reconfigured our network to use 172.16.11.xxxx

    We have assigned our OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909g printers IP addresses by using DHCP reservations.

    After joining the wireless network, all our printers have an address of 169.254.xxxx.xxx.

    What Miss me?

    Thank you

    Christophe

    DHCP is still active on your router?  The printer must have active DHCP.

    169.254.x.x means the printer sees the router, but does not have a valid IP address to him.

  • Driver Windows 8 all-in-one Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless does not

    Hello!

    I recently got a new Dell Inspiron computer running the 64-bit version of Windows 8, and I have an Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless all-in-One Printer from a long time ago. I don't have the driver disk version, since I bought the printer until Windows 8 is out, so I tried to download it from the HP website. Whenever I try to run it, however, it is said that it is the extraction, but once gets it is over, nothing happens. The Installation Wizard is not pop up, and there is no error message explaing it. Help please?

    Thank you!

    and HP and Capture app scanning allows you to scan with compatible devices.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 will reinstall not connection

    Hello!  I'm terribly frustrated and don't know what to do next.  I have a printer all-in-one HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g wireless that is about 3 years old.  Recently, I replaced my laptop for a HP running on Windows 7 64 bit.  Easily, I installed this printer on the phone two months ago and had no problems.  However, over the weekend, while on vacation, I tried to install another printer hp (5510).  I had the disc, followed instructions, etc.  But the printer would not work... period.  I ended up uninstalling.  But for some reason, try to install this printer screwed up of all impressions.  It's a different story, but I finally got my Adobe PDF printer works again.

    Back to today... I'm trying to print something and realize my 8500 printer is listed under "Devices and printers" and all programs are installed, but it will not be printed.  It shows no communication with the printer.  I am sure that he had to do to try to install the 5510.  After hours of troubleshooting, I finally uninstall the 8500 and try to reinstall.  (Remember, it worked fine before this past weekend!)  I downloaded from HP site because my installion CD does not support Windows 7.  For some reason, all the drivers will not download.  I tried FOUR TIMES.  I ran troubleshooting, diagnosis... you name it.  The printer appear in the programs, but not the devices and printers.

    I have connected the printer via USB directly to my computer and it has yet to install correctly.  Wired and wireless configurations show no connection to the printer.

    I'm not an expert, but can generally understand things.  I installed this printer even on three different computers all current to run Windows 7 and have never had a problem.  Help, please!

    Curiously, I did this throughout this process today, and it could find the drivers of 4 numbers.  Being extremely frustrated, I decided to restore to a point before that I tried to install this second printer (which I am certain is the root of all my troubles).  By some miracle, it's what needed!  Everything works now.  Thank you once again, Shane, for all your help and patience.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910: Paper HP Officejet Pro 8500 jams when printing duplex

    Get a jam when trying to duplex.  I did "turned off, pull the power cord, wait 15 seconds and reconnect"., the printer will print a recto verso and then jam again. Actually, this time he printed two duplex sheetys then stuck.

    It works well until this problem.  Can't seem to fix it.

    Paper size was not a problem.  However, after this printer started leaving the ink on printed documents more jam problem, I just dumped the printer and bought a new HP Office Jet Pro 8625. so this postoing can be liquidated.  If the new printer start blobbing or blocking, I'll look for another provider.  Until that point, I was satisfied with the HP printers.  Thanks for your reply.

  • OfficeJet pro 8500 a: Officejet pro 8500 has when you print several pages of ink run-

    When I print several pages or thick paper stock, printing fades as he goes. I have a Mac with OS X10.9 Mavericks.

    I changed the print heads and use original ink. He is a recent problem.

    Another annoing is the error that I get when I use the power switch to turn on or turn off the printer and the error says "do not unplug the printer from taking, damage may."

    Are there any fixes for these problems? Your help will be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Greetings @digengen,
  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless does not parse better than 600 dpi

    I searched and found a lot of similar complaints.

    Integrated display HP can only analyze up to 600 dpi, while the specification specifies 4800dpi with possibility to increase up to 19200 DPI. Then I went to get the 4 800 DPI 600 dpi is ugly to analyze detailed pictures.

    On the web, I found similar complaints and the indication that the HP Solution Center installation allows you to select higher resolutions on the PC which cannot be selected on the printing device itself.

    I don't have a Solution Center then downloaded the latest drivers and reinstalled the printer. HP Solution Center appears to be installed as well, although clicking it leads to an error to complete installation of the printer. I tried to reinstall with the addition of a printer icon: everything looks OK, printer is on an 802.11 wireless network, but after you find the printer, the last message is always "printer setting failed" (is actually in Dutch: "het instellen van printer is mislukt".)

    The strange thing is that printing is not actually a problem (on the wireless), or scan to email.

    I downloaded HP Print next and doctor Scan and the printer works perfectly (prints the test page), but the Solution Center still gives the message that it can not start due to an incomplete installation of the printer.

    I played with the firewall, turn off Norton360, Windows firewall and firewall router and then put it back, but the problem remains.

    In conclusion: it seems impossible to get the famous 4800 dpi.

    Someone knows the way out?

    Thank you

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 Scanner does not work with 10.4.11

    My friend just upgraded to the OfficeJet 8500.  He already had a scanner and a stand-alone printer.  Yesterday, we installed the printer and software, but the scanner will not show either when you press the button on the front console or from the HP Director software.  Any suggestions?  Printing and copy of work currently functions.  His system is an iMac G5 20 ", Mac OS x 10.4.11.  OfficeJet is connected via USB.

    Well Yes, even 2.0 compatible hubs can get in the way of scanning (but usually not print).  Try a direct contact with a known good USB cable.

    You can try uninstalling the scrubber, its probably a good idea if there are old pieces of HP software on your system.
