OfficeJet pro 6830: usb 3?

are there usb 3 cables for printers, and if so, it increases the speed?

I was previously a Wireless connection, but I find usb 2 is faster than wait for the wireless connection.

What is ethernet? Is it faster?

Printers have not enough need to usb 3.0 bandwidth so that they are all usb 2.0 AFAIK. If there is usb 3.0 printers is to make faster built-in card reader access. And if your usb 2.0 printer (likely) you could not do it in usb 3.0 with another cable, in any case. I don't know how you define "slow"? You mean latency in the time it takes for the printer start printing? The page per minute printer is obviously that the same no matter how plug you it. The printer has a memory and work fills the memory until it begins to print. Direct usb cable and the computer will transfer the content of the work to the memory of the printer faster ethernet, then wifi, but frankly the difference will be small.

  • OfficeJet Pro 6830: Printer several times in the process of disappearance

    I keep having trouble with my printer. It worked fine for a few weeks, when I first bought, and then it suddenly stopped to record with my mac, despite being connected via USB.

    The first two times, as it happened, I spent a LOT of time searching through your forums, find an answer later. I'm clearly not only the person with similar problems - don't know why you guys can just put up a page on this topic and facilitate the difficulty.

    However, today I find no solutions. I don't have the technical knowledge to make things complicated and I am appauled that HP does not have a call center or lives the Charter for me - I saw the mention of these things, but I can't find where on your website that offers them. Maybe because I'm in Australia. HP has proved to be an extremely bad for making choices.

    Why my printer don't suddenly ceases to be detected? I had an old printer old until I upgraded that NEVER had this problem. Please tell me how to solve this problem. (and band not only help, but stop to happen). I rely on this printer, every day and every time it disappears, I lose a lot of time trying to get connected again.

    Hi @analisa808,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I noticed that you cannot scan to PDF with your printer HP Officejet Pro 6830. And I'm happy to see it for you!

    To get help, I'll need some more information:

    1. If you use Windows or operating system Mac and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
    2. If the printer is connected, USB, Ethernet, or wireless.
    3. If the printer is able to make copies.
    4. If the power cable is connected to a surge protector, or directly to a wall outlet. Questions when it is connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power. This is true for printers and ink jet.

    In the meantime, if you are using Windows, try the HP Print and Scan Doctor program. And let me know what happens!

  • OfficeJet Pro 6830: MacBook Pro does not print wirelessly for Officejet Pro 6830

    I used to have an old HP Officejet 7210 who was once able to print wirelessly from my MacBook pro, but at some point, wasn't able to do wireless and had to print with usb connection.

    For Black Friday, we bought an Officejet Pro 6830 and on internet I downloaded the latest driver for my MacBook Pro and my windows laptop of wifes and our desktop PC. The mobile office and windows had no problem, but once more, I was not able to print wireless from the MacBook Pro. When I try to print wireless the printer dialogue indicates he's trying to deal with and then it says "the printer is currently in use". So I'll still have to plug the USB to print with this new printer is less than a month.

    I was able to print the wireless test page and he noted that the test page bypassed print drivers. In addition, I am able to go into the printer utilities and see how much ink, I have and the various settings of the printer but I just cannot print documents from applications wireless.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Hello

    First of all, do not forget to reboot your router by unplugging its power for a while, then let it 2-3 minutes to reboot and restart the printer.

    Make sure that the printer is connected wireless and blue wire it light.

    Try now to go to System Preferences > print & scan and click on the sign more. you see the printer listed?

    May you had prior display the problem started with your previous printer? for example a new router, changes of settings, etc. ?

  • HP Officejet Pro 6830: Scanning with Officejet Pro Wireless 6830

    HP Officejet Pro 6830 analysis wireless? I tried using the wireless and ethernet without success. When I look at the system of preference/printer & Scanner / Officejet pro 6830 I see not "Scan" type in the printer option although it seems if connect you via USB.

    Hi @kskhater,

    It may be best to contact Apple to make sure everything is configured correctly and the necessary ports are open.

    You can create a second admin account, is not on the privileges, it is to determine if there is a problem with your user profile. The question might have something to do with your printing system. I know that the issue is scanning, but the printing system, it's what the driver, and since we already have reset the printing system, Apple may need to reload, or the operating system. Create a second user account will help determine whether the problem is related to your account.

    As you can see, at this point, we are at a stage of diagnosis, troubleshooting is the process of elimination. To identify the cause in order to solve the problem.

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 6830 constantly go 'offline' and cannot print

    Hello world.

    I love my HP OfficeJet Pro 6830. It does everything I need a printer / scanner but it is one of the aspects that are really starting to annoy me and my family (i.e. my WIFE!) - he continues to go 'Offline '.

    I understand perfectly that it needs/desires to go to save mode, when I'm not using it or have not used for some time, but for now, every time I have seem to need to use it (after I have not used for some time) of energy, it is listed as 'offline' and the only way I can print is stepping on him , turn off, turn it back on, wait a while so it connects to my WiFi network and then have another go. Then it works... and prints the other five copies of the document that my eager family tried to print!

    "HP print and Scan Doctor" said he of just nothing wrong and just suggest just uninstall and reinstall. I already tried and it changed nothing. Same problem with Windows 7 and 8.1. It will print a page of 'internal' test, but not via Windows test page.

    I also tried to restart the spoler and checked the 'File and Printer sharing' settings, the firewall settings and looked at the network discovery and run various windows troubleshooting tools without result. Nothing works, but the HP Officejet Pro 6830 software can see / communicate with him! It's so frustrating.

    Someone at - it ideas? This really, REALLY boring. Thanks in advance to anyone who donated their time to help me.

    Regards,

    Steve.

  • HP Officejet Pro 6830: HP Officejet Pro 6830 fails to print color

    My HP Officejet Pro 6830 stopped printing in color.  All cartridges are new HP cartridges.  I took all those out and reinstalled them but even that prints black.  I have done a clean print head and alignment but still only prints black.  I went online and downloaded all of the software for this printer and still only black print.  Any ideas how to solve this problem?

    I have another 3 months on my warranty.

    I called HP Printer Support nd everything I had to do was go through all 3 levels of print head cleaning.  Now my HP Officejet Pro 6830 print in all colors.

  • HP Officejet Pro 6830: Receive faxes with a HP officejet pro 6830 w / answering machine

    I had an OLD officejet model that could receive faxes even if the answering machine was not connected directly to the fax machine the 6830 manual says that it must be directly connected.  My current Brother printer does NOT receive faxes because of this problem.  Anyone know if I directly connect my machine to this model (Officejet 6830) to make it work?  I won't buy it if it will not work.

    Hello @JPJ408,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you are looking to buy a printer all-in-one HP Officejet Pro 6830 for fax purposes. While the User Guide advise you to plug the answering machine directly on the back of the Officejet unit, it is not necessary.

    If you have a fax with an answering machine on her line, the only requirement is that the fax is set to two rings higher than the answering machine. Most of the responders are put back on 4 rings. As a result, you would set your Officejet to automatically pick up on 6 rings. In this way, when a voice is heard, you can manually respond to the call before the answering machine to pick up. If you are not home and then people can still leave messages on your answering machine. If you have a fax to come through, do not respond. The answering machine will pick up after 4 rings. At this point the fax machine "listen" on answering machine message and if fax tones are detected, the fax will take over and receive the fax.

    I hope this helps clear up any confusion.

  • HP Officejet Pro 6830 does not connect to WiFi

    I got the HP Officejet Pro 6830 for 6 to 9 months, it has been great to work wireless any time.  Three nights ago, we had a power outage, now the printer will not connect to the wireless router.  He sees the SSID, but when I enter the password, it says that the password is incorrect.  I use an ARRIS Cable Modem.  Any suggestions?

    Hi @CWoodland ,

    I see that you are having problems with the implementation of the network again for the printer, you receive a message that the password is incorrect. I would really like to be able to help solve this problem.

    I would check the network on the Mac password, to verify that the password is entered.
    How to find the password WEP or WPA key for your wireless network.

    You may need to restore the default settings of the printer, and then try again.

    Go to configuration, network configuration, restore the network settings.

    Then run Wireless screen of the printer configuration wizard again.

    Go to installation, configuration, wireless settings, the Wireless Setup Wizard.

    If you need help, let me know.

    Have a great day!
    Thank you.

  • HP Officejet Pro 6830: HP Solution Center

    It was time to replace my HP Officejet 6310 printer. I wanted to stay with the brand HP because I need to use the HP Solution Center software provided with the printer to manage all of my scan, print and fax. So, I bought the HP Officejet Pro 6830. This model does not include the HP Solution Center! It was rather the HP printer Assistant who does not have the features I need. I called HP to see which models have the HP Solution Center, but she says she does not have a list. And I can not find this software listed in the product description so that shopping for HP printers. Help, please! I need to buy a print-scan-fax HP device that has the HP Solution Center software. Here is a link to a previous HP Support Forum stating that the HP Solution Center software is not affiliated in any way with the Officejet Pro 6830 and can not detect the device of this model: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Install-Setup/HP6830-not-recognized-in-HP-Solution-C...

    I called HP technical support. The HP Solution Center 'is no longer supported"all new models.

    So here's what I can do is no longer with the HP printers:

    1. can't see up close the image I'm scanning. So, I can't crop accurately and make fine adjustments.

    2. granular scanning quality PDF. I scanned "line" or text in black and white mode and this is a resolution low resolution, despite the use of 300 dpi and brightness adjustment.

    3. limited to 300 dpi PDF.

    4. no characteristic clipping for scanning matrix photos in newspapers.

    5 JPG limited to 1200 dpi (opportunity to Solution Center with 9600).

    It seems that HP scanners provide only basic functionality. I'm go to Epson printers that use the Document Capture Pro Software and advanced features that HP has taken away from us.

  • OfficeJet Pro 6830: Officejet 6830 noise

    Since the automatic last update (a few days ago), my printer started making a rhythmic whining sound (similar to an old dial-up modem) when it is in standby mode. The noise comes close the power supply to the back of the printer. Whenever the noise happens, it is accompanied by a twinkle of a yellow LED near the input power agreement.

    I removed the power cable from the surge protector and plugged directly into the wall, but the problem persists. If I turn off the wireless feature, the noise changes pitch, but continues. The noise stops when the printer is turned on and working. I checked for new updates, but the printer tells me that all the current updates are in place.

    I wish I had this going away, as being close to the printer (in my living room) is driving me crazy unless I unplug it.

    Hi people, can you please try the latest firmware (published June 1) and let us know if that fixes the problem?
