New HP Officejet 8600 don't scan?

I just installed my #8600 pro to my wireless network and the printer works fine from the computer, but when I try to scan to my computer I get a message in the window of the printer (for scan to the computer, make sure that the feature is enabled)!  When I ran the disc from the printer, jumped the fax configuration, I don't remember seeing a separate procedure to set up the scan function.  Did I miss something on the installer?  Can I rerun the software disc?

  • OfficeJet pro 8600 don't scan from windows 8 updrade

    Printer is working and it is interesting to windows 8 "HP scan and capture" app works but can scan to network folder or no longer use the scanner in other windows such as windows fax applications.  Had worked fine with win 7 64 bit.  I removed all instances of Panel Manager RESUME and control device, rebooted and installed the latest version of the software and drivers website.  Print and scan the program doctor says problem with WIA and TWAIN and get error "cannot communicate with printer" even if it prints very well.  I am connected wirelessly with a static IP address using a Cisco EA4500 router (even once all this has worked with windows 7, but not with windows 8).  Also disabled norton AV and firewall.

    Appreciate the suggestions/fix.

    Thank you.

    Ok.  I think I found a solution to this inability to analyze (but with the HP scan and capture app) and for windows paint, fax, etx to recognize the scanner pro OJ8600 while being able to print.  Because I never got no solution, I thought I'd post what I have so that maybe it will help someone else solve the problem.  He ends this uninstall/reinstall HP drivers and software/reg cscrubbing/port opening/firewall/AV tweeks did nothing.  I uninstalled the drivers for logitech and webcams microsoft that had been installed on the machine has Windows 7 before windows 8 analysis update, restart PC and now everything is back as it was before the victory 8 upgrade, at least for now. In fact, I have a HP AIO peripheral job! Do not know if the webcam drivers are not compatible with win 8 or exactly what the issue was but seems as if they were in conflict with the wia and/or drivers HP; uninstalling them seems to have worked.  Finally I can find and install the new drivers of webcam but, after trying to figure this out for a month, I think I'll leave it be for now.  I hope this helps someone!

    Hello Plypal

    You can try the HP scan diagnostic utility first, but in general the failure of the Scanner is a hardware problem that must be repaired. You can find the number of the media on the link below as well as the link to the Diagnostic utilities.

  • Initial installation of the HP OfficeJet 8600 problem

    I tried to install my new HP OfficeJet 8600.  But it keeps looping of the animation of ink cartridge over and over and over and over and over.  I inserted and reinsert the cartridges several times.  I even removed and then reinserted the ink transporting mechanism, but no luck.  I got no error message, just looping nonstop video animation of introduction on how to insert the ink cartridges.

    Is it possible to go beyond that, so I can finalize the configuration to the top?  Or do I me pack up and return it to the store?

    Unfortunately that has never worked. I chatted with HP and concluded that it was a hardware malfunction, so I sent back a new and have not had a problem since

  • HP Officejet 8600 more - it can scan multiple pages on a single attachment?

    The HP Officejet 8600 more there (HP Solutions) software so that it can scan multiple pages on a single attachment running Windows 7?  Can you tell me the difference between Pro and Premium?

    Hello @Popi, with this printer, you don't have the Solution Center. Although you don't have the 8600 icon on your desktop. It is exactly the same as the Solution Center. The newer printers have an image of the printer rather than the solution Center. It's exactly the same thing.

  • scanning duplex hp officejet 8600

    Hello!  I was wasting a ton of time trying to figure out how to scan duplex using HP officejet 8600.  Is there a driver or software, I need?  Now when I go to my settings of the printer in the Control Panel, it only shows my printer and fax. I don't really see an option to change the settings on my scanner.  Even if I can scan.  I want to be able to use the high plateau of the loader page to scan both sides.  (I plan on my teaching books everything on a USB for easy access and sharing.)  "This is the main purpose of me to have bought this printer.)

    Help, please!

    What model 8600 Officejet do you have?  The Officejet 8600 more and Officejet 8600 Premium have ability to scan double-sided, the Officejet 8600 standard does not.  You can check from the Panel with the copy settings - most and Premium have an option to make the copies face 2:1 or 2:2 for the original and copies, the standard version has options for 1:1 and 1:2.

    If you have the Officejet 8600 Plus or Premium, what operating system are you using?  How the connected printer - USB connected LAN or wireless LAN?

  • HP Officejet 8600 more print and scan problems

    Hello

    I had my HP officejet 8600 more for 2-3 years and always had problems following and just kept reinstalling the drivers as a quick fix. I am now starting a business from home and I have no time to deal with printing and scanning the questions and, of course, my warranty has expired! My operating system is OS X version 10.9.4.

    When I scan to my computer, the printer indicates "not found computer." The status of my mac is no different than when I scanned a document a few days ago! Remove and reinstall the drivers solves this problem temporarily but I want it fixed permanently.

    In addition, when printing, sometimes a page can print immediately and at other times, it may take 5-10 minutes to print even if its status is 100% full in the print queue - even once, reinstall the drivers is a quick fix but I want a permanent solution.

    Any help to solve these problems would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you very much...

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 e. problem scanning scanning and Capture App Win 8.1

    OfficeJet Pro 8600 e.  New.

    Installed on HP Envy touch 23. Running Windows 8.1.

    Wireless set in place. Fine prints.  Problem is the digitization of the HP scanning and capture the software App 8.1 Win

    With the help of scanning and Capture App I can scan pictures very well.  They come out clear.  Scanning documents in GRAY has several bands/lines in gray on the entire page vertically running.  Scanning COLOR documents are very good.

    Also, if I scan from the printer directly using the touch screen of the printer, the output of scan is fine.

    I did the Scan utility to discover any errors and it show everything.  I think it is a software error.  I'm going to uninstall the HP scanning application, and then reinstall.  So, I'll do the uninstall/reinstall and accountable.

    Also, I would like to know if there is a program of office for scanning?  I prefer to use it instead of the modern HP Scan and capture App.

    Thank you...

    Hi artrum,

    I understand that you have been scanning your Officejet 8600 problems using the program window of scanning and Capture. I will certainly do my best to help you with this!

    What you explained, I think: you're right, it seems that it is only a problem with scanning windows and the Capture program and as you could scan from the front of the printer you certainly have the HP software installed. I want to make is that you use the HP scanning software, where you must run is no longer in question.

    To access the HP scanning software and be able to access it easily from your Office I would like you to follow the steps below:

    1 go to your start screen and just start typing File Explorer. You should be able to open it then to access the files on your computer.

    2 then open Local (c) disc, followed by Program Files (x 86), followed by HP, then HP Officejet Pro 8600, followed finally by bin.

    3. in the bin folder, you should see HPScan. You will want to right click on HPScan and go to send to, and then select Desktop.

    Now, you should see HP Scan on your desktop and be able to open and browse this request.

    Hope this helps, have a nice day!

    Hello

    You can pass the value of hp scan: launch of the demand application, select the shortcut to scan (PDF or JPG to the left) and change the resolution you want and save.

    This will send down the printer settings. So the next time you scan, the printer uses these settings.

    Hi @Benking116 and welcome to the Forums of HP

    I'm sorry to hear you had problems of scanning your Officejet 8600 to your Mac in OS X 10.10, but I'm absolutely going to do my best to help!

    If you open HP Scan on the computer, you are able to scan from there without problem (please refer to this document scan from OS X with HP full software functionality to see how to open the HP scanning software)? If so, I think you just have to activate the scanning to computer in the HP software. Please take a look at this Re: definition of Scan post and he will inform where to go in the HP utility choose Activate Scan to computer. After that is done, are you able to the printer to the computer?

    If you are UNABLE to analyze through the HP scanning software, the issue could be just communication itself. In this case, try the steps in this document to the printer is not maintaining the wireless connection .

    No problem.  I'm always happy to help you.  Looks like you might be on the right track with the cable.  What you are discribing it seems it's a communication problem, more of a problem with the drivers.  Make sure that you do not use a USB cable that is more than 6 feet (2 m).  Anything more than that and the loss of signal can cause problems like this.  Let me know what happens.
