  Hi sheryl,

  Yes, the drivers are available via Apple Software Update.

  There is no need to install any software of HP.

  Make sure the printer is powered on and connected to your PC, and then follow the steps below to install the printer:

Generally, the experienced users erasing the hard drive and do a clean install from scratch at least once a year or every time that the installation of a major upgrade of the OS. Well sure doing so also means that you need to maintain regular and several backups.

  Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will boot Mac running Snow Leopard or earlier. He cannot start Mac that came with Lion or later preinstalled, however, DW will work on these models.

  Suggestions for OS X maintenance

  OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are supposed to take place on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Maintenance scripts that are run at the beginning AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep). If this isn't the case, then a great solution is to download and install a shareware like Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacronor Anacron utility that will automate the maintenance regardless of whether activity if the computer is off or asleep.  Dependence on third-party utilities to run periodic maintenance scripts has been significantly reduced since Tiger.  These utilities have little or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later version, and must not be installed.

  OS X automatically defrags files smaller than 20 MB in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files it little need to defragment the hard drive.

  Under no circumstances should you install operating MacPaw or ZeoBit software (CleanMyMac/CleanMyDrive or Mac Keeper, respectively.) You don't need special software to keep your computer.

  Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click the Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If it stops your problem, then re-enable one by one until the problem returns. Now remove this extension as it is the origin of the problem.

  The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.

  Difficulty a few pop ups browser that supported Safari

  Common pop - ups include a message saying that the Government has taken over your computer and you pay release (often called "Moneypak"), or a false message saying that your computer has been infected and you need to call a number of tech support (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it to be resolved. First of all, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and that your computer has not been assigned. This "hack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so don't pay not money, call number, or provide personal information. This article will give an overview of the solution to remove the pop-up window.

  Quit Safari

  Usually, these pop-ups will not go by clicking 'OK' or 'Cancel '. In addition, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in grey, including the option to leave Safari. You'll probably force quit Safari. To do this, press command + option + ESC, select Safari, press on force quit.

  Relaunch Safari

  If you restart Safari, the page will reopen. To avoid this, hold the "Shift" key when opening Safari. This will prevent windows since the last time that Safari was running since the reopening.

  It will not work in all cases. The SHIFT key must be maintained at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window is displayed again. In these circumstances, after force quit Safari, turn off Wi - Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then restart Safari normally. He'll try to reload the malicious Web page, but without a connection, it will not be able to. Leave this page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com and try to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet and the page that you entered is displayed rather than the malicious.

  An excellent link to read is Tom Reed Mac Guide of malicious programs.

  If you need antivirus protection Thomas Reed recommends to use ClamXAV. (Thanks to Thomas Reed to this recommendation.)

  The user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:

  The facts are:

  1. There is no anti-malware software can detect 100% of malware out there.

  2. There is no anti-malware that can detect all targeting the Mac.

  3. the best way to prevent breaches the most is for you as the user is aware that

  the most successful malware attacks rely on sophisticated social engineering

  techniques preying on human greed, * and fear.

  4 Internet pop-up windows telling the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on

  your computer is designed to trick you into installing their malware thinking it's a

  protection against malware.

  5. some of the anti-malware market products are worse than malware

  go where they are supposed to protect you.

  6. be careful where you go on the internet.

  7. don't download anything from sites, you know are safe.

  8 avoid links that you receive in email, always be wary, even if you get something

  you think a friend is, but that you did not expect.

  9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume that it is malware.

  Troubleshooting Applications

  I recommend that you download a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaneror hiding a Cocktail that you can use to delete the former newspapers and archives, cleaning, etc. Corrupted cache, logs or temporary files can slow down the application or OS X crashes and panics of the kernel.

  If you have leopard snow or leopard, then for similar repairs install Applejackfreeware utility.  If you do not start in OS X, you can boot into single-user mode , where you can run Applejack to make a set of routines for repair and maintenance of the command line.  Note that it takes 1.5 AppleJack for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later versions.

  Basic backup

  For some people, Time Machine will be more than enough. Time Machine is part of Mac OS X. There are two components:

  1. a panel of Time Machine preferences as part of the system of preferences;

  2. a request for Time Machine, located in the Applications folder. It's

  used to manage backups and restore backups. Time Machine

  requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the

  drive being backed up.

  You can also get an external drive at least equal to the size hard disk internal and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the disk utility's restore option. You can also create and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (the order is not significant):

  1 Carbon Copy clone

  2. get backup

  3 already seen

  4 superDuper!

  5. Synk Pro

  6. Tri-Backup

  Visit The FAQ XLab and read the FAQ on the backup and restore.  Also read How to back up and restore your files. For using Time Machine, visit FAQ Time Machine of Pondini for help with all this time Machine.

  Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate .

  Additional tips

  Make sure you have a sufficient amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run simultaneously. Make sure to leave a minimum of 10% of the capacity of the hard disk as free space.

  Add more RAM. If your computer less than 2 GB of RAM and you use OS X Leopard or later, then you can do it with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion works much better with 4 GB of RAM that is their system. Most concurrent applications, that you tend to use the more RAM you should have.

  Always have at least 15 GB, or 10% of the capacity of your hard disk as free space, the largest. OS X frequently accesses your hard disk, so offering enough free space will keep things slow down.

  Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:

  Before Mavericks

  Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the drop process .  Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order.  If find you a process that uses a large amount of time processor (> = 70,) then select the process, and then click the quit icon in the toolbar.  Click the force quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.

  Mavericks and later versions

  Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the menu display .  Click the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order.  If find you a process that uses a large amount of time processor (> = 70,) then select the process, and then click the quit icon in the toolbar.  Click the force quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.

  This problem occurs often because of a corrupted cache or the preferences file or an attempt to write in a corrupted log file.

• OfficeJet 6500 and router Wireless does not connect

  I just bought an Officejet 6500 and try to connect to my wireless router.  Whenever I try to connect the printer to wireless it crashes.  The power button does not light, but the screen is lit without text.  At this point, I can't close or get it running again.  I am running Vista Business 64-bit, and the router is a 2wire 1800 HG through AT & T.  It works very well with a usb connection.

  Thanks in advance.  John

  I think you just meet a known issue with some printers of HP network with routers 2WIRE AT & T DSL.

  Have identified us the problem and will deploy an update in the future.  So far, the work around is to assign a static IP address to the printer. Here's a way to do this:

  1. Unplug the phone line from the 2WIRE router
  2. Cut the power to the 2WIRE router, wait 30 seconds, then turn on the power.
  3. Go through the normal process of the printer connected to the 2WIRE (Ethernet or Wi - Fi) device. The printer will not crash as long as the telephone line is disconnected from the 2WIRE device.
  4. The Officejet front panel, go to the menu of 'Advanced Setup' under 'network '.
  5. Select 'Settings of intellectual property', acknowledge receipt of the warning and select "" manual IP ".
  6. Select "IP address" and change the last group of IPS (byte) to something higher or lower. Specifically to your 2WIRE router, select 192.168.0.60.
  7. Press Ok and plug the phone line into the 2WIRE router.
   

• Suite software HP Officejet 4500 for Mountain Lion

  Hello

  The full suite of software for the Officejet 4500 HP will be released for Mac OS 10.8 (Mountain Lion OS)?  If Yes, what is the estimated output?

  In addition, initially, I was able to print but not scan.  The HP software uninstalling and installing this package from Apple was a work around that allowed me to do both.  You can highlight on the page of support of 4500's for Mac:

• Photosmart C7280 and Mountain Lion

  My printer is connected wireless to iMac running on Mountain Lion. No particular reason, the computer can not find printer. Tried to delete the printer and reconnect with the IP address, but still no joy. All of the suggestions. I tested the printer and it is very well connected to the network.

  I would try a complete restart of network.

  Unplug the router.

  Press the power button to turn on the printer, if it is not already turned on.

  With the product, unplug the power cord at the back of the printer.

  Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

  Plug the router back in and wait for the lights on it to stabilize.

  Plug the power cord for the printer into the wall outlet.

  Reconnect the power cord to the back of the printer

  If the product does not light by itself, press the power button to turn it on.

  Try and let me know if it helps!

  Good luck

• OfficeJet 6500 and Internet Explorer

  I just installed the OfficeJet 6500 (wired) and started having problems when closing down Internet Explorer. He ALWAYS told me that IE has stopped responding, but only when I was close anyway. IE has continued to work well when you surf

  I went through my list of startup (msconfig) and it turns out that it was the "HP Digital Imaging - hp all in a series" that was the culprit. I disabled it on startup and the problem disappeared.

  Is there a solution for this.

  What should I start up for my printer works fine with all its bells and whistles.

  Thank you

  This is caused by the HP Smart Web Printing program. uninstall programs and features, and it should work fine.

• OfficeJet 6500 and Mavericks

  I upgraded to the Mavericks, when I got my new MacBook Pro last month. I just tried the printer connection and it's a no go. After HOURS of research... that website... I found these directions:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03967522

  Unfortunately, I followed and uninstalled the HP software before installing the new software. Before I did, I was just messing around in the hope of finding a solution and I tried to re-adding the printer (you can see my computer) and he had the box 'USE', which had the name of the printer (Officejet 6500 blah blah) and AirPrint option two. Thinking that I didn't know as much as the official people who manufactured the product, I decided to search online before clicking on the name of the printer in the area USE and installation of the printer.

  Now that I uninstalled the software by fashion, only AirPrint is available. I can't find Officejet 6500 in the area USE even if I click on some software. I tried AirPrint anyway and found that the computer says the printer is available for use but nothing to actually print and certainly nothing scans as it says there is no software for this product. I spent 2 hours on this site, try to find a solution at this point and I'm completely exasperated. Guess I'll have to analyze everything to work tomorrow.

  Found the answer in the last 2 minutes...

  Turn the printer power off and power on.

• Full-screen Fusion VM and Mountain Lion

  After the update to Lion mountains (running Fusion 4.1.3), I was unable to run my Windows 7 VM in full screen mode and use the two forms.

  What seems to happen is that Fusion moves to the main screen to a second space, but the background on the secondary display is the canvas on the second screen.

  I uninstalled and reinstalled VMware tools and tried sharing my primary/secondary displays on Mac OS.

  If I look into the mission control, the secondary display is placed on 1 desktop instead of space that creates the merger.

  

  We are aware of a problem with Mountain Lion full-screen windows on the wrong space and are working on a solution.

• OfficeJet 6500 and USB on Windows 7 64 bit does not (wireless works fine)

  Hello world.

  New printer. WiFi Of my different laptops works very well. However my main system is not in wireless. Try to install via a USB port. When I plug the printer Windows 7 sees it but I can't get the drivers to install correctly to where I can use fax/scan options. I can print, but I can't do anything else. If I go to the device, the printer appears with the correct name, but says that the driver is not installed. If I try to install manually (using the disk) it barfs and says that the driver is not digitally signed.

  When I run the installation of the software (I downloaded the new installation driver package Basic and full) and I get to the point he wants me to plug the printer, it starts the installation but then Windows barfs and said "no driver found" and then the HP installation fails. It's almost as if Windows 7 is blocking the device when it cannot find a driver. I tried to disable 'automatically install the drivers', but then the installation of HP does not see the printer when it is plugged.

  Basically I'm going nuts and is getting ready to send this printer to Costco, get a Canon. I know the drivers of Canon works because my neighbor has the same configuration as me and his printer, installed fine. I prefer the HP (well, I did) but tired of beating my head against the wall. Anyone have any ideas?

  Thank you

  . / height

  I figured this out. The USB driver would never install. I beat my head against the wall for days and never thought about it. However, I didn't know that I could install the drivers on my main PC with no wireless connectivity wireless. Has a cable LAN connectivity. Apparently my wireless router is smart enough (like most) to send the print queue through my local network to the wireless printer.

  So I just installed the software wireless on my 64 bit WIndows 7 system and I print just as if I was of my laptops wireless.

  I wanted to just update everyone because it isn't really all that clear that you do know. print even if you are wired to the wireless printer.

  See you soon,.

• OfficeJet 6500 prints a bright black text and blur gray/mast

  
  

  Also, I have the OfficeJet 6500 and had the same problem.  Black text was printing with a mixture of colored inks rather than black ink, resulting a gray, fuzzy text.   I finally found a solution.  In each application under Page Setup, there is an option called "Format for".  Mine was created for "any printer".  I changed that to "Officejet 6500 E709n [830E4A]" and now it prints black very well.  I have a Mac running 10.4.11.  I hope this helps.

• OfficeJet 6500 a: Office jet 6500 has printed a computer; produce reports of the printer

  My trusty old Officejet 6500 has suddenly cannot print from my computer.  When I try to print, I receive a FAX form on my screen.

  I printed the printer Hardware Information (2 pages) and the status of the report of the HP printer Assistant printer and they look great.

  How to print the Test Page from Windows printer and the Configuration Page of HP network?  I printed these years when I installed the printer, but I do not remember how I accessed them.

  Thank you for your help.

  It seems that the FAX is set as the default for your printer.  Try the following: click on start, devices and printers. Right-click on the Officejet 6500, and then select set as default.  At this point, it can come with a selection to the FAX or printer, select the printer.

• OfficeJet 6500 new black cartridge installed, but print Brown (all colors) instead

  Hello

  I replaced the black cartridge in my OfficeJet 6500, and clicking on it.  (I triple checked it.)  However, when I try to print a document that is supposed to be any black ink, it prints in a Brown shade as if it is mix inks instead of using black-colored.   I printed a diagnostic page, cleaned and alignment of the heads of print and even restarted the computer and the printer.  Nothing helps!  I am still at work and I have documents that need to be printed!

  Do you have any suggestions?

  Thank you!

  What operating system do you have?  For Windows 7, you would go to start, devices and Printerss, right-click on the Officejet 6500 and then select Printing Preferences.  You can change the setting 'document Type' in the tab 'Features', then click on apply.

  The above will change the default value.  You can also change the print to a particular print job by selecting the print properties when you go to print.
