• OfficeJet Pro 8600 Fax 'answers' in case of normal phone...

  I have my Officejet pro 8600 value fax NO response.  But when in phone... via phone calls connected to the phone in the back of the printer... and the line connected to the line port... the fax machine "will answer", which is to connect to the line and interrupt the phone call, I'm... NOT when the phone rings but after a few minutes into the call.  I have to click X on the touch screen on the printer or turn it off in order to retrieve the call.  Does it randomly but quite often to be a BIG problem.  I make sure that the printer is turned off unless I need to print.

  This sounds like a defect?

  No problem.  Hope that works according to a straight line.

• HP Officejet Pro 8600 Fax (CM749a) Email problem n911a

  Hello!

  I use a HP Officejet 8600 aio n911a (CM749a) connected to a network via ethernet.

  My fax machine is currently set to 'Fax to Network Folder', but I would like to change this to 'Fax to Email. I went to the Fax tab and clicked on the HP digital Fax Wizard to try to change the 'Fax to Network Folder' to 'Fax to Email' but I cannot find anywhere how to do this.

  It only allows me to disable the HP digital fax or fax to network folder.

  I don't know if this helps, but I have configured alerts to e-mail through EWS/settings/Email Alerts, which seems to work fine. If the printer can send emails.

  I would be grateful for your help.

  Kind regards

  Osman.

• HP Officejet Pro 6830: Receive faxes with a HP officejet pro 6830 w / answering machine

  I had an OLD officejet model that could receive faxes even if the answering machine was not connected directly to the fax machine the 6830 manual says that it must be directly connected.  My current Brother printer does NOT receive faxes because of this problem.  Anyone know if I directly connect my machine to this model (Officejet 6830) to make it work?  I won't buy it if it will not work.

  Hello @JPJ408,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

  I understand that you are looking to buy a printer all-in-one HP Officejet Pro 6830 for fax purposes. While the User Guide advise you to plug the answering machine directly on the back of the Officejet unit, it is not necessary.

  If you have a fax with an answering machine on her line, the only requirement is that the fax is set to two rings higher than the answering machine. Most of the responders are put back on 4 rings. As a result, you would set your Officejet to automatically pick up on 6 rings. In this way, when a voice is heard, you can manually respond to the call before the answering machine to pick up. If you are not home and then people can still leave messages on your answering machine. If you have a fax to come through, do not respond. The answering machine will pick up after 4 rings. At this point the fax machine "listen" on answering machine message and if fax tones are detected, the fax will take over and receive the fax.

  I hope this helps clear up any confusion.

• OfficeJet Pro 8600 - FAX with ATT Ringmaster Service number

  I have a phone line with two numbers, the number of the House and with a distinctive ring fax number.  Send/receive works fine and the machine goes to sleep as you wish.

  When the house number rings, the machine out of sleep.  Is this supposed to be like this?  Whenever the phone rings of House, the machine out of sleep.

  After 5 minutes it falls asleep, as it is supposed to.  I find it odd that she would detect a ring on the home phone number.

  Thank you.

  PS - HP Support had me change the fax settings even though I don't think they understood what I was explaining to them.  After that I hung on to the top of the support, the machine responded as well the house number and the fax number.  I went back to the settings that I had done, but the machine still pop sleep whenever the House telephone number sounds.

  Also, when I turn off the PC, the display on the printer stay on all night.

  Someone at - it help with this (these) issues?

  Hi LeeSoFL,

  Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

  From what I understand, when you receive an incoming call, the 8600 fate of "sleep" mode and no matter if it's just a voice call or a fax. This is perfectly normal. As long as the 8600 is not attempt to return to the call voice then everything works without any problem. For the display remaining throughout the night, you may notice that it darkens. If you are worried about remaining on, try plugging the power cable directly to a wall outlet, if it isn't already. HP printers have built in surge protector and if you have connected it to a strip bar, the printer will not get all the power it needs to function properly and cela might be the reason why the screen stays on all night after the computer is turned off. Here is a document that explains the problems when connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power.

  Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

  Thanks for your time.

  My fax machine no longer works.

  When you try to send I egt a message "spooler running configuration" for about 10 sec and then that the transmission was abandoned.

• HP officejet pro 8600 more: hp officejet pro 8600 more prints from iphone cell phone

  I use this printer for several years with no problems. I've already printed for numere and iphone / ipad. Yesterday my laptop ordinary started to give me problems and I have to reboot constantly. Today, my printer started giving problems. It works with the iphone feel but my laptop does not work. I followed doctor scan and it says that it cannot solve the problem. I unplugged the router, then printer, left off the coast for 60 seconds and then re-connected - first router, then printers. Always the same results. I see the file in my queue of the printer, but it does not communicate. I noticed that the blue wireless to the left of the home screen display is not on. The results of the test wireless network prints a page that says no problems found. The ip address is 192.169.1.2; However the address on the actual printer had a different extension. I need to use this printer for work documents.

  He says that the printer cannot be contacted over the network. Also says the device is off. However, if I print from iphone, it works.

  Can someone help me?

  

  Think about scoring the post that solved the problem as 'Accept as Solution' while others having problems may find that worked for you.

  And Yes, the wireless light should be on, except if you have an Ethernet cable connecting the printer to the router in which case the without wire would be disabled, but the printer would operate on the network and have a wired IP address.

• scan to computer function more hp officejet pro 8600 keeps disabling

  For some reason, the analysis of the it function to our laptops HP keeps turning off. I reinstalled the software a couple of times to remedy, but it keeps occurring. Even with a direct analysis of the printer...

  How can I solve this problem, or someone has a solution for this can be avoided in the future? I just bought late November / early December 2011 printer as a gift to replace the original version that shook like the Northridge earthquake...

  Found!

  Mine to the don't work... Thanks to HP!

  This has to do with Windows services and relay information.  Sending a print job is a one-way action.  Digitization is two-way as the image should go back to your computer.

  That's what I did...

  1. type services.msc in run or search and files program

  2. scroll the page up to the WIA Windows Image Acquisition

  3. make sure that the service is running. Click on stop and then restart to ensure

  4 restart the computer

  Restart the services of dependencies:

  1. type services.msc in run or search and files program.

  2. scroll down until you see Windows Image Acquisition (WIA).

  3. double click on it and go to the Dependencies tab.

  4-2 services must be listed.

  5. close this window and look for the remote procedure call (RPC).

  6. make sure it's on manual or if it is enabled automatically, just leave it. Make sure the service is started.

  7. go to hardware detection kernel and Double click.

  8. set the Startup Type to manual and click on apply.

  9. you should be able to start the service by pressing Start.

  10 now, you are done and the Twain Manager must work and gives you is not a mistake.

  Check the dependencies or sous-dependances:

  Under the CPP, he will then list DCOM Service Process Launcher and point final RPC Mapper date back to the start all items listed as dependencies or dependencies under list void main services.msc and do a right click and then WIA.

  I activated it and it works now.

  Good luck!

• HP Officejet Pro 8600: Recently a fax pops up when I try to print photos and the picture does not print

  We have a printer all-in-one HP Officejet Pro 8600 operating from a desktop HP with Windows 7. Recently, in the last two weeks my wife told me, we cannot print photos. The documents appear to be printed without a problem, but when trying to print a photo we get a window titled 'Send Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600'. We have never used or even hung fax capablitly since we have owned this printer (maybe 2-3 years). All of a sudden, this window is displayed when we try to print a photo and the photo does not print.  I can't tell you that my wife did not hit accidentally a wrong button somewhere down the line, but she says she does not. I tried to attach a screenshot of the window, but for some reason that it does not take it. It's probably something very simple, but technically challenged myself, I can't understand. Help, please.

  Thank you

  Vince Pellerito

  Print picture of what program?  Some programs to keep their own default values for the printer.  It seems that the default printer for the printing of the photo program has been set to Fax.  Try to open the program, select the Officejet Pro 8600 as the printer rather than the Officejet Pro 8600 fax.
