Officejet Pro 8500 problem has scan (new)

Mac 10.5.8 (Leopard, Snow Leopard no)

I can't find any interface or driver for scanning, except the screen on the printer.

Use of the screen, I have the choice of jpg and pdf (also by e-mail, but who do not need).

Jpg: Gives Me a 200 dpi file that is only a part of 6 "x 4" of the page.

PDF: Give me the whole page and I can "save under" a tiff file or anything else since Acrobat up to 1200 dpi, but the resolution is certainly not the 4800dpi promised in the specification of this machine. And there is no mention of the color depth.

Where is the driver!

I have never had a scanner that didn't come with a driver that could be imported into PhotoShop, offering an interface for different resolutions and cropping.

Should I remove this printer?

If so, is there an all-in-one that will scan photos properly?

By the way, I was on the chat for a long time yesterday, because the yellow cartridge sunk and emptied at the time the implementation has been full. Cat person told me to call phone support today, but one of the service centres is down and the tree of phone hangs up on me.

This is a very disappointing experience!

Hello!

Is that what you have already installed the printer software in your computer?

If this isn't the case, run the disc that came with the printer and you will see the user interface for scanning.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 has Plus: HP Officejet Pro 8500 a cannot scan more on the purchase of Mac

    I have not had any problems using the printer or scanner on the HP Officejet Pro 8500 has more when I had my old laptop to Windows 7. There was some HP software installed from a CD that allowed me to open the HP application and adjust the settings for scans, save multiple scans in a single PDF etc...

    Since switching to a new Mac OSX desktop computer, I can't install it whatever that either the old CD from my Mac has no CD/DVD drive. The only application of HP on my Mac is now HP ePrint, and which does not seem to offer something to scan with.

    The other option that have left me is to connect the Mac to the printer by USB, then choose:

    Scan > computer > iMac > save in Jpeg.

    But I get the following error message:

    "Connection error".

    The connection to the computer is down or HP scanning application cannot detect the OCR software. Check the computer for more details".

    What do I need to install, or the difficulty to get the scanner to work on my Mac please?

    Hi Karlos444,

    Unplug the printer and reset the printing system:

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 first stopped scanning

    My Officejet Pro 8500 has stopped scanning.  The message window says it is not connected to the network.

    I changed my DSL provided by the local cable company to ATT U verse a few months ago, but the problem does not seem to be related to this change.  I say this because when I ran the diagnostics, the printed page says that my problem is "the wireless radio does not work. Contact HP support. »

    HP support offered advice tech for $29) warranty, or sell me a new all-in-one.

    The wireless radio can be fixed? Is it a software problem.  I have to buy a new all-in-one?

    Hello JessicaD,

    I see that you have a problem with the wireless radio fails on your Officejet 8500. To inform you in this regard, if the radio has failed, it is not a replaceable part by customer, but I'll try to help you with the problem.

    Start as a result of this document: printer does not maintain the wireless connection.
    With this document, I would like to track:
    (1) restore your default settings of network on the printer.
    Go to setup (can be a wrench), network, and then restore the default settings of the network. After that the power on the printer.

    (2) turn off the wireless radio.
    Go to Configuration > network > wireless radio, you must have the option to turn it off.

    (3) hard reset of the printer.
    While the printer power cable for 30 seconds, while the cable is unplugged, press and hold the power button for 15 seconds. It's draining the printer of all power. Reconnect the cable.

    (4) turn on the wireless radio and reconnect.
    Go to Configuration > network > wireless radio - on. Then, go to Configuration > network > wireless are running the configuration wizard.

    If it was not successful in entering you connected to the network and or print wireless. You still have another option with the printer to try before replacing.
    If you have an Ethernet cable, you can set a wired network connection. Plug the Ethernet (cat5 cable) cable into the printer and the router. It will be assigned the printer a new IP, which means that you will need to add the printer to the computer. This will still allow the printer on the network and communicate with a wireless device.

    Please try all above and I would like to know how everything goes. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums.

  • 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: is my officejet pro 8500 store all scanned or copied information

    My Officejet pro 8500 dead.  Are there personal information stored in the printer I need to erase or destroy before recycling the machine?

    @No3putt, welcome to the Forums of HP,

    The printer may have stored recent incoming faxes in memory. You can restore the printer back to factory settings to delete all information.

    • Select the configuration Menu, tools, restore the settings by default, Yes.

    That should erase any information that you entered in the unit and you should be good to recycle!

  • hp officejet pro 8500 Mac has 910

    I've recently updated to Mavericks OSX 10.9 and now my iMac can't find our HP 8500 a (910 a) and installing the driver did not work.  It is not even appear on the list of available printers?  Any suggestions for Mac users?

    No problem MacMimi,

    Let's unplug the USB cable from the printer, leave the printer on and unplug the power cable, and then stop the Mac. After a minute and reconnect the power cable printer to turn back on the computer.

    Once the computer is back on, return to printing and scanning from the preferences system and then connect the USB cable to the printer. If the printer doesn't appear, there will be a few causes. It could be the USB cable, the port of the computer or, possibly, the port of the printer. Try another port on the Mac, if the printer still doesn't appear, try a different USB cable. If the problem persists, I can't believe that the USB port on the printer has gone wrong.

    Keep me posted.
