OfficeJet pro 8500 a: 8500 has will not stop printing

immediately after setting up and installation of my 8500 it began printing a page with only the fraction 1/4 and a smiling face in the very top left of the page and that's all it prints, one after the other, again and again, and do not stop. If I have to cancel the printing of the touch screen, it stops the current print but restarts printing again shortly after.

I sent a test page (page has shown in print queue), but I won't stop printing the page of fraction and smiley face.  the work queued print ever.

There is no error before, after or during the printing of this page.

Welcome to the HP community @gemini570,

I understand your Officejet 8500 has constantly prints a page with a smiling face in the upper left corner, and I wanted to respond to try to help.

Please, start by connecting your PC to the print and scan doctor and choose "print trouble." This diagnostic tool will check for all conflicts that may be causing the problem. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there is a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results.

You can also check to see if you have Web Services enabled on the front of the printer and try to turn it off to see if the pages stop printing on.

If the above don't help, try to uninstall the printer software , restart the computer and run the HP printer install Windows Wizard to install the printer.

Another idea that comes to mind, would be to try stop and start the print spooler:

1. click on start
2. type 'Services' in the search field.
3. open SERVICES
4. at the bottom, click "extended view.
5. search for the print spooler
6. right click and choose Properties
7. Select Automatic from the drop-down list, close the window
8. right-click Print Spooler and select 'Stop', wait until it stops and then again right click and 'Start '.
9. close out Services and try your print.

Testify of my answer by hitting the thumbs up below and press the button "accept as Solution" if I have you helped a resolution!

I hope this helps you!

Let me know the results!

  • OfficeJet pro 8500 has more: Officejet pro 8500 has will not be printed sheets

    I have an Officejet Pro 8500 has more printer. I try to print the recipes on cards, but everytime I try to do my printer says "incorrect paper size" and then cancels the job. How can I fix it? I have a macbook... I don't know if it's part of the problem?

    Most programs running under OS X obey the size of default page defined by the Print Center/Printer Setup Utility preferences.

    A notable exception to this rule, however, is that Microsoft Word, which has its own system to decide what paper size to use.


    Change the default value of letter to A4

    Idea of what should be the default paper size is set in the Normal template.

    Go to Format > Document, and then press the button layout... .

    Set the size of A4 paper, and then press OK.

    Press the button by default... , answer Yes to the dialog box, and then press OK.

    - Source

    I imagine that this also applies to listings so instead of A4, you'd look for 4 x 6! Please let me know if that does the trick!

    Hi @Raggetty ,

    I understand that you are having problems with the printer via the wireless network. I will definitely do my best to help you.

    Since you have moved, you must install the printer on the network.

    If you haven't already done so, restore the default settings of the network printer. Go to configuration, network, restore default network.

    Then set up the printer on the network again.

    Follow this document:

    Configure the printer to a wired network or wireless for the HP Officejet Pro 8500 has e-all-in-One Printer Series.

    If you need help to set up the printer on the network, let me know.

    Good day!
    Thank you.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910 will not scan to folder - Windows 8 Pro

    I upgraded my HP M9500Y PC from Windows 7 to Windows 8 Pro.

    My printer is HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910.  In Windows 7, all the functions of print/scan/fax worked perfectly.

    Windows 8, printing without problem, however, analysis of the file function fails.

    When a document is scanned, the printer seems to be analysis correctly, but the destination folder contains a file of length zero with the new file name.  I tried the formats PDF and JPEG scans.  All attempts to produce files of length zero in the destination folder.

    I tried to change the path of the destination folder by replacing the address IP for the name of the PC, but that made no difference.  The destination folder is shared correctly on the Windows network and the configuration utility based on the web of HP for the digitization of records indicates that all tests have passed.

    What is the sequence of installation for Windows 8 will accept scan-to-folder operations.

I have desktop Dell that is wired through the router works fine, just like two other laptops wireless HP and a Sony Vaio that print wireless. The last two under Vista, so that the Dell laptop in question runs XP Professional and the Dell XP desktop computer.

    I spend a month trying to solve this problem.  Wireless printing, documents hang in the queue and print ever.  When informed of the printer is cycled off the power then, the documents are printed wireless, but only for a temporary period of indefinite duration.  The next time I use the computer, the problem repeats.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software several times.  Running printing HP and Scan doctor says all right.  It is not.  Your expertise is appreciated.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 a: Officejet Pro 8500 has more ADF will not work

    like others, I have this problem.  In fact I do not use the ADF very often and this kind of ignored her, but today, that I needed so decided to try to fix it.  I tried most of the fixes here and the first did nothing, but trying to look at this, I decided to put the paper in the ADF, then open the cover and look to see what happened.  My God, he started work.  I let go a bit and then started to lower the lid.  Heck, he stopped.  Essaye tried again, stopped again that I dropped the lid.  Did that a few times and then being qualified professionally I have the fix engineering, a slight slap on the far side of the adf, as on the back of the printer.  Now, my God, it was only half an hour, but the thing works.  Put three leaves there very well.

    If my thoughts are that some switch or sensor is loose or slightly stuck somehow, and that's the question.  Looking at what others have done, I epxect that they opened and closed the lid several times, because it a bank in the meantime or in the process, and perhaps it's her.  Probably HP guys could tell us what it is?

    Hello @billfern,

    I understand that you were familiar problems of automatic document feeder on your HP Officejet Pro 8500 has more e-All-in-One Printer and after trying to solve the problem, you have found that when you lower the scanner the paper process would stop. I'm happy to hear that you were able to solve this specific problem by giving a bit of a slap to the printer. This certainly isn't a standard troubleshooting step, but one that I saw set a number of different problems!

    In your case, I agree that there is a sensor or roller conflict occurring which is at the origin of the book of power question. This may be due to a defect of the real hardware or a programming problem. In all areas of document feeder, it is not so simple. There are many variables that can affect the document feeder Assembly. Some problems occur after crossing the media statement incorrect Assembly or an overload of the Assembly. Other problems occur if a part in the tray is physically broken. And some points can be caused by a programming problem. However, in all cases, if the charger is faulty a replacement of the entire unit would be necessary that the tray is not a replaceable part.

    It is never a bad idea to update the programming on your machine. Even if your specific Officejet works at the present time, I would recommend sending the last update of the Firmware to it. You can download and run the update of the Firmware by clicking on here.

  • Cyan is not printing on HP Officejet Pro 8500 has more - Air bubbles in the ink tubes

    Hi all

    I know why cyan is not printing.  It is because of the following:

    Ago, I ran out of ink cyan printing ("please replace cyan before continuing").  I live in a remote area and was not able to buy a replacement cyan cartridge, so I read on a hack on the Internet, that was to fool the printer into thinking that the cyan cartridge remained inside ink (just basically restricting the measure gauge so that it read the Full cartridge).  I did it because I had a print document that requires only the black ink, so I knew that this wouldn't be a problem.  Then life happened and I completely forgot my little shortcut, and my wife printed a number of color photos.  I finally had time to cartridges, and I now understood that cyan is not print at all.  I have now opened up the printer and realize that the cyan ink tube is full of bubbles...

    I tried to fix this by printing A4 pages that are for the most part, cyan, but without success.  I even tried to put pressure on the ink cartridge cyan in order to flood the cyan ink tubes - also, it does not work.  I read somewhere that there is a way to actually get some printers to pump tubes with ink, is - it possible on the Officejet Pro 8500 has more?

    Of course, I did all the tools that are pre-set to the arsenal of 8500, but still no luck.

    I know I'm in the situation I am purely because I don't use the device as intended, and people that no one is to blame but me, but I'd appreciate any help you could provide.

    Thank you

    John

    John, looks like you have a problem with the ink system. Unfortunately, what it looks like happened here, is that your ink nozzle, tubing and probably-print head have put dry for cyan. Work around is pretty neat, but it really is only recommended for a very temporary solution. If the ink has dried in the piping, but elsewhere in the printer then can be a decent chance that this printer will be not likely reprint the cyan. You can try to run the automatic cleaning process (up to three times I would say) via the Tools menu in the Setup (the wrench).

    In addition, I'm not sure that this will be a question that has a simple resolution. Apologies, John.
