Officejet Pro 8500 A909a print cartridge jam

I removed the filter switch and the 2nd optional drawer.  I can't find any sign of a paper jam.  The print cartridge is stuck on the right side and I can't reach in this place.  There is what appears to be a hatch above where it is blocked, but I can't open door - I fear I'll break it.  The printer is barely a year - of ideas?

Yes, I did all this.  I was finally able to reach in and find a part to seize the cartridge and on top.  Still can't get off the cover - looks like it is supposed to just swipe, but it wouldn't be fair.  Anyway, once I manually moved the cartridge, I reinstalled the cartridges.  Seems to be ok now.  Thank you.

    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.

  • 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.

    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: new ink cartridges does not

    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500.  It's probably 2 or 3 years.  He says not what 8500, but I think it was
    a diagnosis 'as model A909a.  My level of printing showed that the black ink cartridge must be replaced.  I knew too because what should have been print black was printing a red light faded.  I replaced the black cartridge with a HP product, but it is always print red and get more faded.  Any ideas what could be the problem?  Thank you!

    UPDATE!  Good news!  Somehow I discovered that I needed to update the software. I think it could have been through the option "Scan Doctor".  When I tried to install the software on your computer it wouldn't.  But I went directly to the HP software download site, informed my hardware information and that worked!  I downloaded and installed the updated software and that fixed my problem of black ink cartridge.  I'm so happy and proud of myself!

    I found the solution for me!

  • Officejet pro 8500 wireless print envelope

    2750 old boy had a slot "envelope" in the output tray to make unique envelopes.  Which was very convenient.  My brand new 8500 had no such "slot" and it seems that I have to remove all of the paper in the tray to put one envelope in!  That makes sense to me, but I'm not just any housing "simple envelope" anywhere!  Is it possible to print one envelope with the officejet pro 8500 wireless without having to use the tray itself?

    Thank you

    DrBillS

    I HAVE THE ANSWER THAT WE ALL NOW!

    If you're like me: I am running Windows 7, using Microsoft Word 2007, and you have the Officejet Pro 8500.

    I just spent the last hour on the phone with a customer service very friendly Rep who tried to help me to print without margins on an envelope. I have try on mail merge and include a return address printed in the upper left corner and a printed stamp sorted in the right corner. Whenever I want to print it would create a margin on the left and right side.

    She thought at first it was a software problem with Microsoft Word 2007, because in his version of Word 2003, she could print borderlessly. But I then created an envelope in Photoshop and tried printing without margins. Once more, it would create a margin on the left and the right that was a little more "5/8 of an inch. In fact, the exact margin size is 0,6875 ".

    Anyone else having the same problem? I'm sure you are.

    HERE'S WHAT YOU SHOULD DO IF YOU WANT TO PRINT WITHOUT MARGINS ON AN ENVELOPE:

    (1) choose a new document in Word 2007, then choose Virgin doc 'LETTER' (no envelope)

    (2) a set of left margin: 0,1875 (Yes it's small!)

    (3) a set of right margin: 1.5

    (4) set the top margin: 2.1875

    (5) also set the bottom margin: 2.1875

    (6) turn the grid if you see your work area.

    The grid can be enabled in the 'View' menu and then select the gridlines check box. If you hold down the 'alt' key, you can move objects (such as text boxes) without having to align them on the grid.

    Create your envelope, then print. Essentially what you are fooling your printer to think you are printing on a letter for an envelope printing in reality. I need to print 1000 at a time, so it was do-or-die because I just bought this printer and love the speed at which it prints in color. especially on the functionality of the project.

    Good luck!

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 A910: printer duplex option forget

    I have the duplex unit installed and that you have used successfully for some time.   Are some time I tried to print double-sided, but the option was not in the print window.  I went into the options of the printer and found that the duplex was not checked.  I checked and was able to print two-sided without problem.

    Some time later I tried again to duplex, and again once the option wasn't there.  I can reset the option, but very shortly after the OS 'forgets' setting.  Basically, I have to do every time I want to duplex.

    This was not always a problem.  It worked fine until a couple of months ago (and Mac OS updates several there).  I have two Macs connected over wi - fi for this printer and Mac have the problem.

    Hey @alhurley,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I hope you enjoy your stay here.

    I understand that you have a few options with the option of double-sided printing associated to your Officejet Pro 8500 all-in-One printer on your computer Mac OSX 10.11. I can help you with that.

    Here's how we should be able to fix this:

    1. Disconnect the USB cable if it is connected.
    2. Click your Apple system and print and Scan preferences icon.
    3. Hold down the command key and click the icon of your printer on the left.
    4. Click on reset printing system.
    5. Restart your Mac.

    Now connect the USB cable again if you removed previously. Otherwise:

    1. Go to the Apple preferences system, print, and Scan.
    2. Press the button "+" in the lower left corner.
    3. Select your printer from the list.
    4. In the box next to click on Airprint and select your printer from the list.
    5. Click on Add.

    One last thing to do now is click on Apple, updates of the system and all the necessary updates.

    This should fix the duplex printing option. If not then the next step would be to contact Apple as there is something weird is happening with your operating system.

    Please let me know if this solves your problem or if you have any other questions. If not, have a great week!
