my hp officejet 6500 a keeps giving me paper mismatch error

I have a HP 6500 has more (and users of Windows XP) I tried to stop it and disconnect and reconnect. I also entered the printer icon and made sure that the paper size stated, "Plain" and it still not print a document. Any suggestions?

This printer has a firmware update that address the question you seem to have.

1 update the firmware go to www.hp.com/support - drivers Select & Software - enter 6500 has more for the product number

2. on the next page, select your operating system (windows xp)

3. step 2 - Select a download - click the firmware download and run the firmware update

To do the update of the firmware, you need to be connected by usb.  If it's a wireless installation, simply connect the usb cable and run the firmware, you do not have to install the usb printer.

  • OfficeJet 6600: Paper mismatch error

    Hello
    Will be a mistake of the incompatibility of weird paper on this new computer. Initially, printed but on a slight angle, now it does print none with regular paper mismatch error. The book is on letter and page of the letter, is not sure what is happening.

    Seen on a post of support for the same problems with a 6500 a download a firmware update - but once I try to install, it is said that the program is completely updated... which does not help. I clicked to repair the program in the region to add / remove programs, but no change. Would not have to uninstall and reinstall the printer, but probably it is the best next step for me for me.

    But... I saw someone here say they have been PM'ing some people with a similar problem, some kind of reset the option for this obviously common problem... don't know why reset options aren't just posted on the forum as well. Also tried is installing the latest version of the HP Support Assistant... but it just sits there, appearing there download but nothing happens and it never seems to fill.

    I hope we can understand this... endless with the 6600 lately.

    Thanks in advance!

  • 3.6.7and the new java Firefox do not work for me. Firefox keeps giving me the script errors

    Errors are: busy script: Programfiles/Mozillafirefox/components/nsExtensionmanager.js:623 or [JavaScript error: 'dir is zero' {file: 'file:///C:/Users/Owner/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/v8lye5o2.default/extensions/%7B0538E3E3-7E9B-4d49-8831-A227C80A7AD3%7D/components/nsForecastfox.js' line: 323}] "when calling method: [ffIDiskService::get]."

    The only solution is to uninstall firefox and reinstall. I have to do every day because he does that until firefox freezes or closes. I am running Vista. Never had this problem until I upgrade 3.6.8 and then I kept getting java errors, so I downloaded the most recent Java. Now if firefox starts at all, add ons do not work. If I uninstall and reinstall, they work temporarily until I have to close firefox.

    The issue of 'nsExtensionManager.js:623' is due to an incompatibility of Personas Plus 1.6 with the Google toolbar.

  • HP Officejet 6500 E709n: HP Officejet 6500 E709n - ink system failure error message.

    I have a printer HP Officejet 6500 E709n.  I get the following error message when I turn on the printer:

    'Ink system failure.  "Please turn printer off, then on.

    I then do as instructed and turn the printer off, but then the whenever I re - turn on the printer, I get the same error again.  The printer is now fixed to the top and none of the buttons on the printer works except the Power button on / off.

    Any suggestions on how to proceed?

    Hi @recooke,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I see that you can not use your HP Officejet 6500 Wireless. You get a printer fault to "turn printer off and then on again" you did without success.

    Please perform a hard reset:

    1. disconnect all cables and cards of memory in the printer.  Unplug the power cord, directly from the back of the printer when the printer is still on.

    2. unplug the other end of the power cord.

    3. If there is a power supply on the power cord, disconnect one end and reconnect it.
        
    4. at the end of 60 seconds, plug it directly into a wall outlet (not a surge protector or battery backup).
        
    5. connect the power cord to the back of the printer.
        
    6. the printer should automatically power back upward.  If not, turn it on with the power button.

    7. try to make a photocopy (if your printer is an all-in one) before you connect the cables from the printer.

    8. connect the other cables needed to the printer.

    It is recommended that the printer is plugged directly into a wall socket to ensure a uniform level of power.  Sometimes, when plugged into a surge protector or battery backup, the quantity of electricity is not received by the printer.  Power problems can cause printing problems.  It is particularly important to be plugged directly into a wall outlet with wireless connectivity problems, "sleep mode" and other power problems.

    Any change?

    If you still see the error, please check your Inbox. I sent you a private message on the Forums.

    Response with the result. I hope this helps.

  • OfficeJet 6500 only prints the top of the page

    Have a problem with getting my Officejet 6500 to print the entire page.  Top of the body impression seems to be running on the top of the page, as if the paper was not inserted enough away early in the cycle of printing.  Became "paper mismatch" error message briefly, but that does not appear now.  To check the installation of the printer for proper paper size (8.5 "x 11").  Was printing normally until recently.  Uninstalled and reinstalled HP web page software.  Any suggestions?

    Problem seems to be resolved!

    The printing Assembly that fits into the back of the unit was not completely seated.  There is no warning generated unit that the Assembly was not in place, just erratic behavior and various messages like "out of paper" and jamming of paper.  I recommend that if you are having similar problems, that you check carefully that the back print Assembly is properly inserted into the machine.

    Kind regards

  • Office Jet 6500: Mismatch error paper, Office jet 6500

    I read all the old posts.  Do you have any suggestions and nothing seems to work.   A few days ago, I was able to print an invitation on paper 5.5 by 8.5.  Today, none other than error messages.   Same printer, the same paper, same settings.      The error message is a paper mismatch.   I spent hours trying to figure out the problem.  I mean seriously, why would it be such a question?  Something as simple as changing the paper size.   Another thing that really sucks on this printer, it's that you can't customize the papersize.  I need 5.5 by 8.5, but had to choose the closet to 5 by 7.

    Help!

    Hey there @dzarlene, welcome to the Forums of HP!

    I understand that you are facing a "Paper mismatch" error when you try to print an invitation to your Officejet 6500. I have some ideas in mind for you to try, to see if we can solve this problem for you!

    1. click on this link, select your operating system and follow all the steps in the order: Printers HP - "paper Mismatch" or "Paper Size Mismatch" error

    2. run the print and scan the doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for all conflicts that may be causing the problem. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there is a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results.

    3. uninstalling the software of the printer, restart the printer to download and reinstall the full functionality driver here (select 6500 JO you have, click on the software and drivers and 'Check now': drivers & software )

    Try to print again and let me know what happens!

  • OfficeJet Pro 6230: Officejet Pro 6230 continous (not of paper) paper jam error

    As soon as the printer powers on it the ink carrier Wizz backward real quick (as he struggles to move) and then gives me a paper jam error (the resume light flashes and error appears on my screen). He did the same thing when I try to print anything (including the status report page).

    When I up the access panel upward (power on), the carrier of ink isn't even move to ink cartridges which can be changed. I try to move with force, but it does not move (if I use more strength, somethings will break). Ink is a bit new, so I don't know it still has ink in there.

    The steps I've tried:

    plugged the power supply into the wall outlet

    roller cleaning

    THERE IS NO PAPER or PAPER PIECES BETWEEN ROLLERS (I checked like 20 times)

    reset the printer

    There is a large black gear coupled to a white average speed on the left side near the bottom of the printer. I manually drove the speed by pressing (rotation) of North (or forward or to the rear of the printer) for a few seconds and once I did that. the ink carrier was able to move as it's supposed to, and I could see the ink. but once the power is back on, the carrier of ink was in the locked position and fights again and gives me the paper jam error.

    I don't have really any troubleshooting documents on the CV online on how to fix a jammed media of ink and clearing paper jams, so I'm out of options.

    It is plugged into USB

    The main problem is the paper jam error.

    I don't know if the stuck carrier of ink is the cause.

    Hi @Comp-Tech.

  • How to print from my ipad to the officejet 6500 has more?

    I read that there may be something else than necessary. I want to print directly to the Officejet 6500 has more. Apple said ths is an Air Print printer able to do this. I don't take this monster out of the box until I know he will do what I want without a lot of trouble. Thank you.

    OK, so you were talking about requiring the update.  It is difficult to say that all depends on if it came with the new firmware or not.  It is not really relevant, however, because it will be updated as soon as Web Services.  This process takes a few minutes.  There is no computer necessary for the update of the firmware as long as the printer has internet access (which is directly connected to a router via ethernet or wireless).  Yes, a connection ad hoc, you will be able to print from the iPad, but you can use its 3 G connection instead of through your router.  It can only support a single WiFi also.  Go ahead and set up the printer and keep me posted on what happens.

    BTW - what is the problem with your PC that it cannot access the internet?

  • HP Officejet 6500 has plus: HP Officejet 6500 a more impossible to connect to the server

    My printer can detect my wireless network, but does not connect to it. Problem started with my MAC a few months ago, but he persists even with my new HP laptop.

    I thought I could have network problems, so upgrade my router (Linkys at Linkys))... still problem. Comcast upgraded my router (Linkys multifunction ARRIS) again and the problem persists.

    I tried cycling power offshore for the router and the printer.

    Even my scanner picks up signals from the printer. I don't know where's the disconnect?

    Help, please

    @mikkiglanvill

    Printer:

    HP Officejet 6500 a Plus e-All-in-One - E710n

    A few ideas

    If you have not done for awhile, you may download and install a new copy of the software full functionality.  Reference: install the full features software - printer

    If the printer is located where you can do so, you could try a wired connection to the router.

    You could try the printer of the assign a static IP address.

    Make sure that there is at least 1 meter / 3 feet between the printer and all wireless devices you want to connect.  Too much is as bad as too far away...

    Paw through all ideas / suggestions / information in the exceptional User Guide of this printer - network setup Section starting on Page 222.

    Try to use as not only a static IP address, but also a hard to connect to your ISP DNS information.

    Mount the power wireless on your receiving devices (PC)

    Help:

    Printer keeps no connection Wi - Fi

    Set the SSID printer

    Parameters to improve wireless connectivity
