OfficeJet pro 8600: double-sided printing has stopped working

I recently had to restore my RT Windows 8.1 running Surface.    Before that my printer was working fine.  After, I had a problem with documents stuck in print (QC) I finally corrected which but now my documents will not be 2 sided.  No matter how many times I select two sides printing in the print dialog box, it will not do it.

When I go to the properties of the drivers it says duplex printing is not installed.  I don't know how to enable this option.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the driver several times.  Well Finally, who sets the printer problem, it did not solve duplex printing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello

In the Control Panel select devices and printers.

Right click on the printer icon 8600 and select printer properties.

Open the device settings tab and set as installed two-sided printing accessory.

Confirm the changes and two-sided printing becomes available.

For any questions, access the control panel can help the following video:

  • OfficeJet pro 8600 double sided printing smudges

    I try to print paper double-sided on 200gsm (color) on our new printer 8600 & apparently smudge or smear the first page at the end.

    When it prints the first page & begins to push out of the printer (where it is said that its drying) before pulling back in print on the other side, it comes out ok, but when printing is complete, it has black ink stained all over the front page.  The back of the back page looks perfect.

    Hey dinkidi,.

    What are the parameters of paper what do you use in the driver when executing this print job? (E.g., type of plain paper and best quality printing letter size)

    Have you tried to remove the filter to switch at the rear of the 8600 and wipe the rollers back in the printer with a soft, lint slightly damp with water?  In addition, try to wipe the rollers of the Ferris wheel inside the duplex unit.  It is possible that a small amount of ink rubbed off on the rollers of the printer.

    Also, please take a look at the information in the document found here.

    Let me know how it goes,

  • OfficeJet Pro 8000 double-sided printing will not respond to the control software #2

    Win XP Pro SP3

    OfficeJet Pro 8000 Wireless

    Does anyone know why Officejet Pro 8000 had control of double-sided printing, removed from the spec software?

    Does anyone know if there is a printer of this type which will respond to such control?

    UPDATE!

    ----------

    This printer is now works very well with total control on duplex printing. But how did this happen...?

    Two things have changed - well, maybe three.

    But first of all to mention another very annoying problem: wireless printer to my network connection always collapsed which was a double nuisance (23/06/2016 see also installing the driver wireless Officejet 8000 Pro says default gateway is 0.0.0.0)

    The road to happiness... I've finally updated my PC to a laptop HP Win7 (there is a problem with the laptop, but that's another story...)

    During the process of setting up laptop, I had to set up the network and add the printer. In between aid was a FAQ something like "the wirless connection drops regularly." What interested me.

    The fix was so simple - mychosen IP address has always been in the DNS range which was probably not very smart, but I didn't know any different. No one had ever mentioned before.

    The idea is to select an address in the static range IE outside the DNS. So I took a number x.x.x.249 and bingo!, a solid and reliable connection that is always there.

    Given the new laptop for download the drivers again. What went well and of course, the new machine is much faster.

    Anyway after a few tries, much to my delight I discovered that two-sided printing worked with auto rotation if I check the box. Printing a document like that I would see in portrate (horizontal spine) and read down the two pages, turn to the next page and the same thing at the end of the document. Or, if you use the rotation of non - normal mode - the printing orientation is 'normal '.

    It's a shame that it was necessary to buy a new laptop with a new o/s just to discover the problem by chance...

    I'm trying to print a booklet from a pdf file.  When I print double sided printing pages in reverse.  Front of the faces of the page to the top and back of the page down.

    Hi @roza,

    I'd love to help you with your duplex settings. Looks like you will need to change the short edge binding on the long edge. I found something that might help with these settings: with long edges and parameters of short edge duplex printing.

    I hope this helps.

    I recommend that you follow the steps below and check if that helps.

    • Unplug the power cable from the back of the printer when the printer is on.
    • Then without connecting the power cable, press and hold the button for 15 seconds.
    • While holding the power button, plug the power cable and keep pressing the power button for more than 5 seconds.
    • IF the printer is not powered, restart the printer manually and check if that helps.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus - Duplex printing problem

    I use a printer Officejet Pro 8600 Plus (what is the best printer I've ever had, apart from this problem!).  I use it with Windows 8.1.

    He struggles for more than a few pages print using duplex.  The problem seems to get worse when I print a pdf file.  It starts to print very well and made a few pages, but then I get this message "error on HP Officejet Pro 8600.  "Could not print * name * folder.  It appears on the computer not the printer.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Hey there @operationorphan

    I just wanted to add my own suggestions here for the issue of two-sided printing that you had with your Officejet 8600.

    You can try to update the firmware: get the latest Firmware and updates

    If this does not help, try to uninstall the printer software , reboot the PC and reinstall the printer. This should dissipate all software problems.

    I hope that helps!

    If troubleshooting doesn't help not solve your problem, then I would say call the HP Technical Support to see all the other possibilities for you. If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions: click here.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Wireless Configuration - print is in the queue, then disappears. Do not print

    I just got the Officejet Pro 8600 as a gift and burden of implementing software and it on my wireless network.  When I try to print an e-mail or a coupon, the command changes to the printer and indicates in the queue. Then after a few seconds, the print queue (work) disappears without printing the document.  This command goes to the HP ePrint feature or the Officejet Pro 8600 network?  It shows the HP ePrint as being on USB.

    I have run all the Diagnostics, downloaded all the new software, software packages and updates.  I spend several hours trying to get to the printer.

    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Hi @bksechols

    Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support.  I understand that when you send a print job to your printer Officejet 8600 to printing to the queue, then disappears without the printing of the print job.

    To help you, you please provide additional information?

    I look forward to hear from you.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 more N91: Printer crashes with 0xB845D7DC when connect to UPC Ubee cable modem/router EVW3226

    Printing: HP Officejet Pro 8600 more e-All-in-One Printer - N911g

    SN: [personal information]

    REF: CM750A

    FW: CKP5CN1516AR

    Then try to connect to the router wireless (active DHCP), the printer LCD display starts to blink and a second, it displays B845D7DC.

    After that, the printer asks to reset and it restarts with wireless off.

    I have a cable modem with router wireless of my cable TV UPC provider called UPC Ubee EVW3226.

    I tried to connect the printer to the router using the WPS button and provide the password. In both cases, I have the same behavior.

    I have a dozen other wireless home devices that connect without problem to the router. But not the printer.

    Please let me know what other information will be good for you to solve the problem. Or, please provide a workaround solution.

    I found the solution:

    connect to your printer cable (you can use a direct eth between your computer and your printer cable), access the web interface and disable support IPv6 (let the IPv4 only verified): network > General > protocols > only IPv4 verified. Save and restart the printer.

    In 80% of cases, it will work on the wireless connection. For the other 20% when it does not work, try to assign a static IP address to your printer (network > Wireless > IPv4) in a second time. Take data from your router (IP, gateway, DNS).

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600: How to print on paper of custom format with Officejet Pro 8600 for Windows 10

    Problem: Cannot create a custom for HP Officejet Pro 8600 paper size

    Found a solution for Windows 7, but I need this same problem solved for Windows 10...

    The solution: 'Using pilot Deskjet 9800 to set a custom paper size to print for Officejet 8600' worked very well for me on a Windows 7 machine...

    However, the HP Deskjet 9800 driver is not available for Windows 10... you have another driver I can use that would work with Windows 10 and which is compatible with the HP Officejet Pro 8600... ???

    Hello

    Use the HP Deskjet 6940 as another driver, if it is not listed under HP it appears after clicking the Windows Update button in the Add Printer dialog box:

    1. Right-click your printer 8600 and select printer Ptoperties. A note which port is selected under Ports.
    2. Click Add a printer.
    3. Click on 'the printer that I want isn't listed.
    4. Select A Local port or a netowrk with manual settings.
    5. Select the port used by your printer.
    6. Select HP
    7. Select HP Deskjet 6940
      Note: Click on Windwos update if it is not listed under HP.
    8. Fill the wizrd and 6940 driver allows you to print a document custom formats.
