OfficeJet Pro 8600 - FAX with ATT Ringmaster Service number

I have a phone line with two numbers, the number of the House and with a distinctive ring fax number.  Send/receive works fine and the machine goes to sleep as you wish.

When the house number rings, the machine out of sleep.  Is this supposed to be like this?  Whenever the phone rings of House, the machine out of sleep.

After 5 minutes it falls asleep, as it is supposed to.  I find it odd that she would detect a ring on the home phone number.

Thank you.

PS - HP Support had me change the fax settings even though I don't think they understood what I was explaining to them.  After that I hung on to the top of the support, the machine responded as well the house number and the fax number.  I went back to the settings that I had done, but the machine still pop sleep whenever the House telephone number sounds.

Also, when I turn off the PC, the display on the printer stay on all night.

Someone at - it help with this (these) issues?

Hi LeeSoFL,

Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

From what I understand, when you receive an incoming call, the 8600 fate of "sleep" mode and no matter if it's just a voice call or a fax. This is perfectly normal. As long as the 8600 is not attempt to return to the call voice then everything works without any problem. For the display remaining throughout the night, you may notice that it darkens. If you are worried about remaining on, try plugging the power cable directly to a wall outlet, if it isn't already. HP printers have built in surge protector and if you have connected it to a strip bar, the printer will not get all the power it needs to function properly and cela might be the reason why the screen stays on all night after the computer is turned off. Here is a document that explains the problems when connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Thanks for your time.

  • More HP Officejet Pro 8600 - Fax answering incoming calls instead of answering machine

    I set up the fax on my new HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus & the fax at the end past all test report & yes I used the good cable for the phone (the one that came with the fax) However when someone calls, the fax picks up the call rather than the answering machine.

    Can someone tell me how to fix this please?

    If you get only fax from time to time, I suggest to turn off the auto answer on the 8600, and when you hear the fax tone, * #123 to tell the fax machine to pick up. In this way, you can leave your answering machine like that and do not miss faxes.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600: communicating with the help of consumption on HP products

    My immediate problem is that my printer does not print after installing new HP ink cartridges. It worked very well, and I had a weak color and a black ink supply, so I replaced all the.

    The biggest problem is that we cannot reach, talk, email or instant message someone connected remotely to HP.

    They have a shield until molasses made up a wall of 40 regions, departments or products, followed by a re - direct to sub contract of sale or repair companies that appear when you try to click on certain areas to help.

    It is very difficult to get real help from HP directly.  Sales and marketing and promotion.  It is senseless to have an image of high class and the name and not standing behind your product, service, information or assistance.

    It makes people go to another brand name in the future.  I have a HP4215 printer / a 4180printer of HP and an Officejet PRO 8600 wireless printer, a HP Pavilion CPU and an HP laptop.  But for the life of me, I can't reach everyone out there to tell me how to fix or troubleshoot the product.  And tryng to find a local repair for printers? Is not the case.

    So MY question is, either A) how to make a rep from HP to contact me about my problems, or B) how to get the most money for my HP products when I jump from another brand that has the customer service?

    Thank you.

    I have my Officejet pro 8600 value fax NO response.  But when in phone... via phone calls connected to the phone in the back of the printer... and the line connected to the line port... the fax machine "will answer", which is to connect to the line and interrupt the phone call, I'm...

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Fax (CM749a) Email problem n911a

    Hello!

    I use a HP Officejet 8600 aio n911a (CM749a) connected to a network via ethernet.

    My fax machine is currently set to 'Fax to Network Folder', but I would like to change this to 'Fax to Email. I went to the Fax tab and clicked on the HP digital Fax Wizard to try to change the 'Fax to Network Folder' to 'Fax to Email' but I cannot find anywhere how to do this.

    It only allows me to disable the HP digital fax or fax to network folder.

    I don't know if this helps, but I have configured alerts to e-mail through EWS/settings/Email Alerts, which seems to work fine. If the printer can send emails.

    I would be grateful for your help.

    Kind regards

    Hi Osman,

    The HP Officejet Pro 8600 (N911a) support only the digital repository (Scan or E-mail) to a network folder.

    Only the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus / Premium models provide the specific functionality.

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 more with Windows 8.1: failure to print double-sided

    Hello

    I recently bought a new laptop with Windows 8.1 software and unfortunately can not print any document double face of any program.  While I can easily print the documents double-sided on other computers running earlier versions of windows, it doesn't seem to be any option to do it at all on my laptop.

    I see that this problem has been resolved with the older versions of windows, but solutions are not easy to follow in windows 8.1. Here are my stats from the printer and thanks a lot for your help!

    printer: HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus

    OS: Windows 8.1

    Connected via wifi

    Hi duneser,

    I understand that you have a problem with duplexing in Windows 8.1. I'll try my best to help you solve this problem.

    Because the printer print double-sided on the lower version of Windows, it may be the software and drivers installed on the Windows 8.1.  I suggest to uninstall the printer software , then using the printer HP install wizard for Windows to install. This tool will search for the right software and drivers to install for your printer.

    Once you have reinstalled here is a document for printing on both sides of the paper (duplex printing) with adjustment steps upwards and double-sided printing.

    I hope this helps, let me know how it goes.

    Thank you

  • OfficeJet pro 8600: printing with black cartridge only

    I just replaced the black ink cartridge (the other colors are exhausted and still in the machine) but I want to just print in black, but it won't let me - please advise

    This isn't what you want to hear, but you will need to replace the color cartridges as well.  The 8600 Pro Officejet has separate ink supplies and a replaceable (but expensive) print head.  If the printer works (in black only) with one or more color exhausted it can damage the print head.  To avoid damaging the printer hangs printing if one or several colors are exhausted.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600: HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 printing with blank!

    Help, please! This is getting ridiculous.

    Literally, this began to happen today! I can print anything because of this crazy white blank strip on the side of the pages. Why is this happening? This is a screenshot SO it has nothing to do with the printer itself. Right after I do a draw and the screen comes back I see this and this is exactly how it prints. I did not change a thing. All my HP ink and my printer is not 'dirty '.

    Hi eli4,

    I can't say with certainty what goes wrong in this case since there are a few possible explanations of these vertical striations.

    However, HP has a troubleshooting guide for diagnosing this particular problem which may help you: LINK

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600: Recently a fax pops up when I try to print photos and the picture does not print

    We have a printer all-in-one HP Officejet Pro 8600 operating from a desktop HP with Windows 7. Recently, in the last two weeks my wife told me, we cannot print photos. The documents appear to be printed without a problem, but when trying to print a photo we get a window titled 'Send Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600'. We have never used or even hung fax capablitly since we have owned this printer (maybe 2-3 years). All of a sudden, this window is displayed when we try to print a photo and the photo does not print.  I can't tell you that my wife did not hit accidentally a wrong button somewhere down the line, but she says she does not. I tried to attach a screenshot of the window, but for some reason that it does not take it. It's probably something very simple, but technically challenged myself, I can't understand. Help, please.

    Thank you

    Print picture of what program?  Some programs to keep their own default values for the printer.  It seems that the default printer for the printing of the photo program has been set to Fax.  Try to open the program, select the Officejet Pro 8600 as the printer rather than the Officejet Pro 8600 fax.

    How to access your e-mail?

    * Do you connect to a service of e-mail via a web browser?

    * Or you are using a client such as MS Outlook e-mail software?

    If you log on to an e-mail via a web browser client, then you do in Internet Explorer?  Have you tried multiple browsers to ensure that the problem does not follow?

    I would also try another driver, such as the driver of c 990, to see if it is a driver compatibility problem.  For more information about how to use another driver, see thread of Shane_R found here.  I hope this helps.
