OfficeJet 6500 ethernet

Hi all, I am based in the United Kingdom and whereas an Officejet 6500 wireless, but the purchase

b the description says it has an Ethernet port, but the reviews I've read seem to vary on whether this means that you can simply plug it into your router (not wireless) and it will automatically be usable by all of your computers, or if you need to buy a separate HP print server.  Can someone please confirm the correct situation?

(b) there seems to be several version of the 6500 wireless, differing only by an end rather obscure product code, which is not always displayed on the shopping sites, and I saw at least one examiner, saying that he had to send back because when he got him it was not the version that he expected.  Can anyone shed some light on which is the fax/print/scan/copy device Ethernet / Wireless 'standard '?

Thank you very much

Answers:

the printer ethernet port allows direct connection to your wireless router / wireless.  It works very well... no password, no interference from other networks or wireless home cordless phones...

(b) I think there are only two versions in an entire region - wired and wireless and wired.  I could be wrong...

  • OfficeJet 6500 a printer seems to have disabled - ethernet port is blocked with the yellow plug.

    Hi, I bought an OfficeJet 6500 has more around a year ago and have been using it with variable success using wireless internet. I thought that it might help to connect using wired ethernet, but I just discovered that the ethernet port is blocked by a yellow card.

    Documentation that I found online, this expected to be activated, so I do not understand why it is not - can someone explain what is happening?

    It's a shipping plug, just remove the CAP and you will be able to set the ethernet cable.

  • HP Officejet 6500 a more impossible to connect to the server

    My HP Officejet 6500 a more printer was connected to my wireless network and was attached to the ePrint service; and I had an email address to send prints to my printer. But today, when I go to the ePrint, it shows that my printer is NOT connected to the SERVER!

    He invites me to go to the Setup menu option / Services Web Setup / email address Panel on the printer display. And, when I do that, it shows me: "you can connect the printer to the itenrnet through a proxy server and touch the ENTER PROXY button! I do not know what Proxy Server, he is asked? And when I get soemthing, it then asks a PORT number! Still, I don't know what is the Port! My printer is still connected to my home wireless network.

    Then I went back to HP ePrintCenter page and REMOVED my printer and then tried to ADD a printer, but, now, he asks me to "enter the printing Code.

    When I tried to enter the print code I had on the file, it says that the code was not valid; the codes are ONLY good for 24 hours, and I have to get a new printing code to return to the configuration of the printer menu steps described above!

    Looks like I'm stuck in a vicious circle.

    I would appreciate your help. Thank you.

    To correct the unable to connect to a web server error. I'd start by power cycling the router and the printer. If still we get the error that I will then try to put a static DNS server built-in web printer (EWS).

    To power cycle the router:

    1. unplug the router (most do not have a power button) and then put
    the printer off using the power button
    2. wait 30 seconds
    3 plug in the router, wait until it is completely upward and the operation.
    4 turn on printer
    5. after the printer is completely top and operational reattempt to connect to web services

    If after that, you still get the error message, I had put the static DNS. To do this:
    1 get the IP address of the printer, and then make a browser (IE, Chrome, any browser you want) and enter
    IP address of the printer in the address bar. This will bring up the SEWS
    2. search for the network titled tab and click on it
    3. then click on IPv4 in the left column, wired / wireless depend on the connection, if connected by Ethernet
    Choose wired, wireless select wireless
    4. when loading this page watch the second part entitled 'Configuration of the DNS addresses' change this radio
    Manual button and change the DNS preferred manual to 8.8.8.8 and manual to auxiliary DNS
    8.8.4.4 and then click on apply.
    5. pay particular attention the following screen which appears this message usually is a way to undo changes only
    made by clicking on the OK"" button. Avoid this by clicking another tab
    or just leave it until you close it.
    6 turn the printer of the cycle and then turn it back on
    7. once the printer is back on and retry operation, activate web
    services and reprint information page so that you can get a new code and add your printer back to ePrint Center. You will need to create a new e-mail address for the printer.

  • "User intervention required" network OfficeJet 6500 E709a on Windows 8 print

    I have an OfficeJet 6500 all-in-in-one E709a connected to my router wireless via an ethernet cable. 2 computers (Win XP and Windows 8 64 bit) connected wireless to this network. The Win XP computer can print without problem, but the Win 8 computer print jobs in queue and says "User interaction" required

    A few notes:

    * It seems that Windows already installed drivers for this printer. It is available in the window "Devices and printers", having the status of "user Intervention."

    * I don't want to install the complete software if I can avoid it

    * I checked that the printer is NOT in offline mode / pause

    * I tried stop the spooler service, delete the temporary files, and then restarting the spooler, as suggested, on a MS windows forum

    * Windows 8 is a new computer; It has never worked before

    * I tried to restart the printer, but that did not help. Windows detects when it it turned off and rebooted, but when it is restarted it goes straight to mode "user Intervention."

    * The software HP to select the "good" pilot says that it cannot find the drivers for my printer

    * HP does not seem to offer a download drivers only for my combination printer/Win 8

    Help, please.

    Thank you

    Skinny, looks to have a configuration issue with the printer. What we will do is to uninstall the printer completely and reinstall following in my footsteps. This will give use a shift even to work from.


    First of all, if you use a USB cable, be sure to remove it (it's important). Do not plug it in again until the software instructs you. Through devices and printers, programs and features and issues Device Manager and make sure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. As indicated, and then restart the computer.

  • 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?

  • OSX 10.6 with officejet 6500 scan has

    I'm considering buying an Officejet 6500 has, but I need to ask 2 questions to determine if it is right for me:

    1. is it possible to scan multiple pages into a single PDF using the ADF?

    2. If I connect the 6500 a by ethernet to my wireless router, it will be possible to scan from my computer connected wireless?

    I'm on Mac OS x 10.6.8

    Thank you!

    Hello

    1. The printer media scanning multiple pages in a single PDF using HP scan application.
    2. As long as both devices connected to the same network, you will be able to use any function of the device. devices must use the same type of connection.
    3. In addition, Apple Mac OS X uses Hello to communicate with the device, so the router must support multicast (may be referred to as mDNS / Multicast / Hello) which depends on Hello. I recommend to contact your router service provider and check that the router meets these requirements.

    Kind regards

  • HP Officejet 6500 a: HP Officejet 6500 a and Air Print

    I use HP OfficeJet 6500 has connected to my network.  Works very well.  It is also implemented and works with ePrint via email address.

    Now, I'm trying to get my iPad and iPhone to print via Air Print, but they will not find the printer.  All products are up to date.

    (1) is the printer must be in wireless mode for direct connection to Apple products instead of via the router and not through the wired connection?

    (2) it seems that this 6500 a has any ability to woreless when I unplug the ethernet cable, even if the guide and the sites Internet says that she is supposed to have wireless capability.  No Option in the Network Setup menu to enable or disable wireless.

    Hello

    Must be connected to the same network, as long as it's the network of sae, an ethernet cable should work.

    AirPrint is based on good morning, requiring your router to support the transfer of Multicast packets in order to establish such a link.

    There are routers that does not support multicast or can with this support, disabled by default, the router is most likely the cause of forums,

    If please specify your router brand and model to better understand any possible cause.

  • Apple Airprint for HP Officejet 6500 has more via a wired connection to the router

    Hello

    So I did a considerable amount of research in this through the internet and this forum and I still struggle to find a satisfactory solution.

    I have a HP Officejet 6500 a more connected by ethernet to my BT Homehub 3.

    It is I understand that even if there is a wired connection, as long as my iOS device (iPad 2 or iPhone 5) is connected to the same router, I should still be able to see this Officejet thanks to ease of airprint.

    Unfortunately, this is not the case. I get the message "No Airprint Printers Found" on both devices. The only way I managed to get my Mac Pro (Mavericks) to connect has been add to mannualy by using the IP address of the printer.

    Can anyone provide guidance on what I might hurt? Certainly, the printer must connect internet I can print from my iOS devices using HP ePrint app for iOS.

    Some might say, well, what's the problem, just use the HP application, but is not the point. I think that if something has been set up to make things easier, then use it. I chose this printer specifically for this feature is a bit frustrating for her so difficult to get the desired results.

    Hope it is something simple and anyone can help you.

    Thank you

    Steve

    Following this request and reading the many more similar questions, I think I may have solved this.

    I'm not 100% sure but I read a few threads suggests that there are issues around BT Homehub 3 and Hello so this can be a problem.

    I tried the following in the past two days...

    (1) completely don't reset my router (wiped all settings and started)-no luck!

    (2) I tried changing to WPA2 to just WPA security - no luck!

    (3) tried to convey the Hello to the printer ports - no luck!

    (4) turn off the router, printer and all the devices iOS then fed back router, printer, then iOS devices - printer appears on iOS devices, but when printing was selected iOS device returned on several occasions not connected printer error.

    Finally, what seems to have made (at least for now) has been...

    (1) disconnected the Officejet ethernet and set up as wireless.

    (2) off voltage router, printer and all iOS devices then propelled upward in the order listed previously.

    (3) so far, I tried to print a mail and a web page of my iOS devices, and both have been successful.

    By the way I've been struggling also to airplay from my iPhone / iPad until I started messing around with the settings above, and now this question also seems to be resolved.

    Due to the variety of combinations (different printers, routers, etc.) people will have, it seems to be quite difficult to find a solution that solves a single problem but I hope some of my experiences and findings could help others in some way.

  • New installation on windows 7 pro 64-bit sees not connected wired Officejet 6500 E710a-f

    Hello!

    New installation of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit on a gigahertz 3.40 AMD Phenom II X 4 965 with 8 GB of ram. Printer drivers worked on the same bench while he was running as Windows 7 Pro 32-bit.
    After only install FF, AVG, and Acrobat (almost a clean install), downloaded the software HP Officejet full feature and pilot 2012-10-22, Version: 116,98, 28.8 M - OJ6500_E710n - z_1315.exe and tried to install the Officejet 6500 E710a f.

    The printer has a manually set static IP and can be ping from the host. Clean Windows Firewall is disabled and stopped.

    The web interface using the IP address of the printer comes with all the features works on FF.
    Network status shows connected with IP address, hostname and Mac.

    However, when installing the network audit is no ethernet connection. Even manually enter his public static IP address or hostname does not solve the problem.

    Try the USB, the same question option. I see in Device Manager under other devices HPOfficejet 6500 and 6500 HPOfficejet - Fax with a blue questionmark.
    (In the same "other devices" there are 2 Officejet 6500 with a yellow exclamation point - probably from failed network installation).

    In the printers and devices window, the 6500 is displayed with the correct thumbnail, but with a yellow exclamation point icon. Law and by selecting the convenience store, Windows comes up with the message that no driver is installed and offers a solution.  The correction ends with the error that no drivers not found for the FAX. Re-apply the patch never finds the driver.

    Anyone who has met something similar (and a solution)?

    Thanks for any help!

    Jack

    After trying to do an install clean-install of 100% and once again, the driver software could not find the printer name or IP address.
    Back at each stage, I noticed that I was not using the correct driver! For some reason I D/L the pilot E710n which is for HP Officejet 6500 a Plus e-All-in-One.
    Whatever the difference, when installing the E710n for the model does not detect the printer, or via USB or Ethernet.
    After you download the right driver for the E710a - f HP Officejet 6500 a e-All-in-One Printer (OJ6500_E710a - f_1315.exe) installation perfectly finished in a few minutes and everything goes well...

    You would think, base or USB connectivity network should not be dependent on the specific differences sub-model. I was expecting that a bad driver interrogate the device after finding its IP address and display an error message with useful text.

  • Wireless connection to my HP Officejet 6500 709 has

    I have a HP Officejet 6500 709 a.  I want to move it to a location that is not in close proximaty to my modem.  My printer has a wireless radio?  Must be connected directly to the modem?  I have a wireless network in my house, but the only way I can get my printer online is to connect directly to the PC I want to print from.  I'm doing something wrong?

    One option, I examined is locate a Repeater for wireless near my printer and connect directly to the printer.  I'm not even sure that will work, and that you don't want to go through the expense if it is not necessary.

    I have not heard about the use of carrier current adapters, but it is possible to make it work if it offers a stable connection to your network (some services offer a no stable connection as hot Mobile). I have no personal experience with the help of this technology, but what I understand, it should work in conjunction with your router to similarly as it connecting via Ethernet directly.

    {edit} After doing further research on this adapter I could find more information. The device works just like using an Ethernet connection (and for all purposes useful, this is one), but sends the signal through your houses of power lines to the other adapter. This should provide a stable connetion due to the structure of basic features and how they work.

    If you try, let me know if I can pass that information along!

  • HP Officejet 6500 a shared printer cannot add computer network to send scan

    HP Officejet 6500 a is shared on my network by another computer. I can print to the printer, but I am not able to scan directly to my computer. I can't add another computer in the options of scan on the front panel of HP. I use Microsoft Windows XP Professional 2002. I also downloaded the installation CD on my hard drive, tried to search by IP address, but always without success. Is it possible to add another computer for instructions to scan, if I'm not connected to the HP printer?

    Hey kapua99,

    If you use the printer in shared USB mode to access over the network, then it will only support basic printing.  Shared network printers allow no detection on the share path.

    If you want to scan from multiple computers on the network, so I recommend linking the Officejet 6500 a directly to the network.  For more information about how to install the printer on an Ethernet network or wireless, click on the link below.
