• HP Officejet Pro 8500 best has come out very low but the printer works fine.

  I was always able to make great copies.  The quality of the document that I copy is excellent and I've copied before.  Now everything I copy is very low and cannot be read.  The printer works without any problem.

  Hey 1265yankee,

  I see that you have a problem of quality of the copy with your Officejet Pro 8500 (A910) a model-all-in-one.  Have you tried to reset the printer hard and ensured that the device is connected to a wall outlet directly?

  • Unplug the printer while on
  • Unplug the other end of the power cord from the wall jack directly
  • Wait 30 to 60 seconds
  • Plug the unit back to

  Also, take a look at the steps in the document found here.  The document is not directly applicable in the present case, but the steps are the same for your question.

  Let me know how it goes.  If this does not solve your problem, then I have the steps to perform a factory reset on this product to see if an internal reset will be able to get the device to work as expected.

• OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909a not print correctly

  OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909a

  Windows 7

  I can't print now with my usual USB connection, directly from the computer USB for printer, even if another computer can print to it via a network connection.  After printing, I open printer in devices and printers, there is a ghost copy to the printer and the printer itself is ghost, indicating that it is in offline mode.  After you open the Quebec, the file is listed with a message "error-printing".  I can remove the copy to the printer and to set the printer online, but the process is repeated each time.

  I: restarted the computer and the printer, run the troubleshooter printer with no problems, noted, tried the USB cable to a different port, execute printing and doctor Scan and my computer 'sees' the firmware, printer and resettled drivers and restart the print spooler.  There is no hardware problems - it will print on the other computer and copies, etc very well.  I have not tried another cable because I have a step and assume if my computer can see the printer should work.  One final note: there was a bolt of lightning about 100 yards away for the weekend. first thing Monday back to work is when I noticed the problem.

  Please help, I did research for hours without success...

  Tried the printer with 2 different usb cables to another computer and it never worked.  I think that the usb port on the printer has been fried.  Bought a new printer works fine.

  The printer Officejet 8500 A909 series does not work with ePrint. You can use the House ePrint and Biz app for Android and Semien devices or application ePrint for iOS devices. However, you cannot use ePrint itself. Sorry for the confusion. Here are links to the ePrint and FAQ Mobile applications compatibility list. Hope that helps.

• HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909a USB 3 questions about the configuration of the network - port USB3 problem

  Fujitsu Windows 7 laptop (all USB2)

  used the full software and installed a printer HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909a Series as a network printer.

  The printer installed fine and don't have USB connection

  All the software and scanning twain installed, so I was able to scan the copy etc.

  I could browse and choose my PC from the front panel of the printer

  However, it was Tuesday confirmed to a friend that their printer would work on a new laptop - bought the laptop

  Fujitsu - but more recent model with 3 USB ports

  I have install and then used the same FULL configured driver to be installed (V14)

  selected as a network printer and then, during the installation, I get an error hardware error USB and USB drivers

  All the USB works, that I've used - BUT the printer is networked and no USB used

  tried to download the driver and install it-exactly the same question

  SO I configure using the devices and printers 'add printer' network and installed

  I can print OK

  BUT no analysis facilities

  and on the façade - cannot see the new PC to scan to

  The only real difference, is that this PC has USB3 and only mine has USB2

  DO not know why on a network installation USB even when searching for

  It's a problem because Drivet package not has not been updated for USB3 - y at - it a patch?

  Thanks for any help / advice

  Hi etaf,.

  I guess the short answer is: Yes, the problem with the software and the 3.0 Port.

  The long answer with a possible work around is as follows: first of all, the software looks for minimum requirements. Because the software is older, he doesn't know what a 3.0 port. You are right when you say that it should work since you do not use the USB and use wireless instead, but this is not the case.

  There is something we can try, but I can't guarantee it will work. I thought first we could connect a USB cable and run the software made to force the software to see the USB port, but then the software wouldn't even get far enough because you can't plug the cable to the most later in the installation.

  My second thought and most promising suggestion is to connect the USB cable (although we do normally not until the software prompts us to) and use the installation wizard HP Print to get the insteaad of software to use the CD or download from the printer driver page. Still, I can't say with certainty that it works, but I don't see why it would not be worth a try.

  If it works, and we get the software installed you can convert the USB connection to a wireless connection using the software. Fingers crossed! Download and run the with the following link. Printer HP install wizard for Windows

  If this does not work, or you don't want to bother with it (not worth trying), I might consider getting a new model of the printer. You can even call HP. They might be able to offer a discount on a newer model. If you are in the Canada, U.S. dial 800-474-6836 or you can Contact HP worldwide.

• OfficeJet pro 8500 a909a: try to go to with a HP officejet Pro 8500 wireless

  I just moved.  My fax in my old address connection came a "bundle" and has been through a fixed line.  I wonder if my oldest device is able to make a wireless upward set, or I'll have to stay with a land line and a phone number for the fax works correctly?

  My unit is about 5 years... HP office jet Pro 8500 a909a...

  Thank you

  Hello

  A telephone cable to a fixed line connection is required for faxing.

  Generally, a Wi - Fi connection only refer to a connection to a computer for printing and scanning, it does not refer to a configuration of the fax machine.

  However, the device does support all wireless, but only a wired network or USB connectivity.

  Kind regards

• OfficeJet Pro 8500 - no USB or Ethernet cable to connect the printer to the computer?

  I'm just trying to set up my new printer Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless.  I got to the step of installing the software, but there seems to be no cable supplied to connect the printer to my computer.

  I can't currently connect via radio that I expect a new wireless router be delivered.  Is this the way onlt connection other than buying a separate USB or Ethernet cable?

  Help, please.

  Ethernet and USB cables are not usually provided with most of the printers that you need to choose a cable with a length of favourabel to you. You can go to a hardware/computer store and buy a USB A-to-B cable. I'll post a picture of the end of cable just to clear any confusion.
