• HP Officejet Pro 8500 a: printers print only after the new cartridges installed

  Whenever I put in new cartridges I have problems with the print head alignment, then it usually printed.  This time, he was sitting with cartridges empty color for awhile and now it does not print at all.  I always use only the new HP cartridges.  It fails the alignment and the blue and yellow and sometimes the magenta show on the sheet alignment.  What is the print heads?  Why would I need to change them whenever I have to add ink cartridges new which makes no sense.  I have never changed them, but they worked very well until I added the new ink.

  Hey @janh1058,

  Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.  I hope you enjoy your experience here.

  I understand that e-all-in-one-HP Officejet Pro 8500 a your printer is printing is no longer.  I would like to work with you on this. I have a few suggestions that might restore your printing capabilities.

  It could be that the long period of inactivity of dormancy has dried the print head, even if you have made the right choice in leaving the cartridges installed in the printer.  I recommend you try the following basic troubleshooting steps before embarking on a manual print head cleaning more intensive:

  • Click here and clean the printhead automatically via the front panel of the printer, as shown in the second Solution.
  • Repeat three times if you still have print quality issues.
  • Remove and reinsert the cartridges once more with the printer to force the printer to print a different allignment page.
  • This to improve the print quality?

  If you use always the same question, I have a few more advanced troubleshooting tips:

• HP Officejet Pro 8500 a Premium: print head

  I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 a Premium e-all-in-one printer - A910n printer on a home network.

  I have known printing issues that point to a printhead problem; but I don't know where.  I lined up and cleaned the print heads HP Print & Scan doctor and the console on the printer.  No luck; My test pages shows the black and magenta blocks, but not blocks cyan or yellow.

  I printed the console power-on self-test diagnostic page; and, he pointed out that the status of printhead is good for the two print heads.

  If I have to replace a print head, I don't know what printhead to replace.  Of what I have posted. It sounds like black/yellow or magenta/cyan failed; or do I have another problem?

  Thank you!

• HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g: My printer is not wireless...

  Hello! I tried for three days to get my printer to print something. For some reason, my HP Officejet Pro 8500 all-in-One a909g is not printing.

  I tried to update the drivers to see if that was the problem, but for some reason that my printer is not connected to my HP laptop wireless. The connection for some reason any broke. Whenever I go to enter the WPA code (which is correct and yes I put it in place for WPA and WPA2 not) it keeps refusing to connect to my laptop.

  If someone could help me please, it is something that I really need for my studies and we just replace the ink and Printhead and cannot afford to replace really. Thank you!

  Hello
  Thank you to try the Wireless Setup Wizard.
  Seems strange that the printer is not able to connect to the home network.

  If your printer is close to the router, you can connect using an Ethernet (Lan) cable.

  You will still need to install the printer software when you do this so that the drivers are properly configured i.e. non-plug-and-play.

  Hope that helps!

• OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909a not print correctly

  OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909a

  Windows 7

  I can't print now with my usual USB connection, directly from the computer USB for printer, even if another computer can print to it via a network connection.  After printing, I open printer in devices and printers, there is a ghost copy to the printer and the printer itself is ghost, indicating that it is in offline mode.  After you open the Quebec, the file is listed with a message "error-printing".  I can remove the copy to the printer and to set the printer online, but the process is repeated each time.

  I: restarted the computer and the printer, run the troubleshooter printer with no problems, noted, tried the USB cable to a different port, execute printing and doctor Scan and my computer 'sees' the firmware, printer and resettled drivers and restart the print spooler.  There is no hardware problems - it will print on the other computer and copies, etc very well.  I have not tried another cable because I have a step and assume if my computer can see the printer should work.  One final note: there was a bolt of lightning about 100 yards away for the weekend. first thing Monday back to work is when I noticed the problem.

  Please help, I did research for hours without success...

  Tried the printer with 2 different usb cables to another computer and it never worked.  I think that the usb port on the printer has been fried.  Bought a new printer works fine.

  You have the 64 bit version of Windows 7?  This thread suggests printing from Vista 64 bit (and WIn 7 would be similar) is a problem in Quicken 2008 and 2009.  The thread suggests there is a solution, but the link requires registration for the forum of Quicken and who did not work for me this afternoon.

  Hello @help411911,

  The Forums of HP is a great place to find answers to the questions/problems you may have, welcome! I see that you are facing some print quality problems when you print to your HP Officejet 8500. It is printing in pink only and partial pages. You have performed the steps in troubleshooting without success.

  1. When you performed the cleaning and printed the test page, have you seen all the colors on the page or is - this only rose as well?

  2. are you able to make a black copy?

  3. When you upgraded to Windows 10 you would update the software and drivers for the 8500 JO so?

  What does the HP print and Scan doctor find? I look forward to hear from you.

• HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 a: unusual printing problem

  When I click on the "print" button I get the following message: -.

  Word cannot communicate with the printer

  There are several possible reasons:

  • There may not be enough memory available. Try closing files and programs you don't use.
  • Your printer or driver that maybe isn't setup correctly. You may need to adjust your printer settings.
  • If you use a network for printing there may be a problem with the network connection or the printer driver.
  • There may be loose cables or a bad connection between your computer and your printer.

  ---------------------------------------------------

  If I click on 'Print' in the file menu drop-down I can send the document to the printer. (No Communication problem?)

  When it reaches the printer it shows an error of: -.

  'PAPER JAM' - "clear paper jam and then tap OK."

  If I don't do anything but press 'OK' cycles a blank sheet of paper through the printer then prints my document!

  I am confused about if I have one or two problems and would appreciate any help anyone could offer.

  Hey there @Monners!

  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  I see you have a little a problem of confusion when printing from your MS Word documents.  The best way to check the hardware of the printer in order to ensure that it works properly is to make a copy of photo stand alone.  If the printer is able to copy with giving a paper jam problem then the material is OK and you are probably looking to a software problem.

  If your persistent paper jam issue during a photo copy follow this document:

  Welcome to the don5188 forums

  I saw your post about your OJ 8500 if alignment and want to help! I would say after the troubleshooting guide for the same problem and if the alignment still does not work, then look in a trade or another printer.

• 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.

  Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

  It is regrettable that we do not know anything about your situation: what you do, if you tried to solve the problem, if the printer works for other tasks...

  In most cases, these things can be solved as long as the printer is working and the printer software is installed.

• OfficeJet Pro 8500 has: the printer does not

  Got a message on the control panel may not print, replace the depleted ink cartridge (magenta) to resume printing.  Nothing changed when I replaced the magenta cartridge.  I replaced it once again without change.  I keep getting the same message and therefore impossible to print.

  Hello @dejen and welcome to the Forums of HP, I hope you enjoy your experience!

  If I understand your message that you are having problems with your cartridge.  I would like to help!

  I recommend to start by removing the printer ink cartridges and reset the power supply.  Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

  Then, I recommend following the steps in this document:

  Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!
