  • OfficeJet Pro 8600: How to load an envelope #10 in the status bar and align it for quality printing.

    How can I charge a #10 envelope in the tray to print.

    Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

    Series of e-all-in-one-HP Officejet Pro 8600 User Guide

    See Page 25

    Don't forget to select the media Type in your printer preferences when you go to print the envelope, so the printer knows that he has to wait for the thicker paper of your envelope #10.  This allows the printer the well-positioned rollers and ink and the drying time, too.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: PC stopped communicating with wireless Officejet Pro 8600 more

    My HP printer has been connected to my PC via my home wireless network and work without problem, for 18 months.  A few weeks ago the printer stop appearing in the printer dialog box when I went to print a document.  The printer continues to operate wireless for all my mobile devices without problem.

    I went through all the HP process and tools for troubleshooting, downloaded and installed all updates, nothing helps.  I uninstalled my PC off and now it will not reinstall.  The installation process see the printer on the network, but when I try to install it it said "cannot be installed on the network" and it goes no further. I lost hours and hours trying to get to the bottom of it, nothing helps.

    What is the problem?

    Hi @Layli,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I noticed that your PC has stopped communicating with your HP Officejet Pro 8600 wireless connection more. I'm sorry to hear that, but happy to help!

    Out of curiosity, what happens if you install the printer using the USB method wireless configuration? Check out this guide, your wireless printerand select Configuration USB wireless.

    Also, if this does not work, able to install the printer are you using a USB connection? In this way, we can see if the problem could be the connection itself or not.

    You see error messages on the control panel of the printer at all?

    Thanks for posting and hope to hear from you soon!

  • 8600 Officejet Pro 8600 no more stopped printing

    I have an Officejet Pro 8600 Plus 8600 that I installed on my home wireless router.  I use a Dell laptop with the Windows 7 operating system.  I have installed the printer without a problem when I bought it a month ago.  A few days ago, I tried to print a page before going to my work and could not operate.  I don't think much since I'm in a hurry, but later when I returned from work, that my printer was still not working.  I unplugged the printer and close the router and the laptop.  I rebooted everything and always the printer would not work.  No test page or anything.  I uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled and the Test of Fax report prints fine, but when I tried to run the printer test page, I got the error message "Unable to communicate with the printer."  I have worked on this for two days now and nothing I will work.  I used the doctor Print and evrything goes, but still no luck.  Help please?

    WEEL I finally thought to it.  My McAfee did an update that wiped out my ability to print.  I changed the settings for McAfee and I was able to print again.  Thanks for your help!

    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.

  • HP 8600 Pro - default is Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600, how can I change the ordinary printer

    Running Win 8.  Under control panel, the print device only shown is Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600.  In specific applications, I choose the HP Officejet Pro 8600 in the drop down menu, but this option in not avialable in the control panel to make the printer regularly by default.

    I hope I am explaining that properly.

    When you right-click on the Fax - HP Officejet Pro 8600 icon and browse to set a default done it gives the choice, if not
    Click on the printer icon and look for the properties of the server printer on the top of the page to go to tab drivers and check if it shows you only officejet Pro listed twice a 8600 8600 series and the other as a Fax.

    If you see the two that could be the problem of installation does not complete successfully. I would uninstall from Add/Remove programs to remove the entry from the server properties and install the lates SW of the website the link is below

  • HP 8600 how to stop a current print job?

    How to stop a current print job without turning off the printer? There's no option "to stop printing" anywhere on the touch screen.

    I already downloaded the thing of diagnostics that assures me that there is nothing wrong with the printer.

    Hey,.

    The touch buttons around the screen are always active, even if they are not displayed on the front panel at the current time.  To see where the buttons you can press on the? on the upper right corner and the display will be lit all the buttons.  Have you tried pressing the location of the X when printing?

    Let me know how it goes,

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 more. No menu auto scan when loading documents in the ADF?

    I have an Officejet Pro 8600 more again to replace the L7780 who brought up the menu scan, when a document is loaded into the autofeeder.  How can I get the only 8600 to do the same.  I find that I liked the convenience of the automatic menu, but it does not come to the top when I load the document (s) to scan in the ADF.  This feature has been discontinued?

    Thank you.  I do enjoy the printer but miss this feature that I scan all my documents in my computer to avoid to keep a lot of paper.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 - black lines when copying, colored scanning lines

    Hello

    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8600. When I try to copy from glass, copy of ADF, I get black lines going the length of the pages. Whenver I scan, once more, the glass or ADF I get lines colored, ranging from the length of the analysis. I called HP customer service and the representative told me clean the glass and part inside of the ADF, but the problem still remains. No idea if this is a common problem? More important still, how fix it.

    Do a hard rest on the printer. Let the printer and unplug the power cord. In doing so, it will remove the lines.

    When a solution is found, please indicate the position that solves your problem.

    If I have solved your problem, please do not hesitate to provide laurels and make sure that you mark this thread as provided solution!

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600: Officejet Pro 8600 leaves black lines on docs scanned when using the document feeder

    This is the second HP Officejet Pro 8600 I had - one was replaced by HP, after that the same issue arose.  I tried to clean the entire unit, but we still get a thin black line running vertically down the page.  This line is divided into sections of 1 "and 2.5" in length.  Sometimes I get the fine line and then almost a shadow line that is parallel.

    Any suggestions would be very appreciated I have scan documents to PDF format and it's hassle to put everyone on the flat for scanning.  I use the charger of the doc on a daily basis and wonder if this could have something to do with the lines.

    Thanks for any help.

    The question is a spec on thin (~ 1 "wide) glass to the left of the main bed scanner.  Clean this area as described in this document.  It can be difficult to see the affected area, a bright flashlight which is held at an angle to the glass can help find the place.  Even a very small spec on the glass can cause a black line when using the ADF.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Premiun: deleting e-mail in scanning to e-mail option

    My scan-to-email address book is full. I need to remove the address that I no longer use. I have not found the option to do so. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

    Hello @ImaTazzie73 ,

    I understand that you have difficulties to change the address book for your Officejet Pro 8600 Premium.

    I want to help you with this.

    He says that your operating system is windows 7. On your desktop, you should have an icon that looks like your printer.

    It should be named HP Officejet pro 8600.

    If you double-click on this it should open the Printer Wizard.

    Here there is another icon, you can click to scan to e-mail.

    It should open a tool that will allow you to edit the address book.

    Another option is as follows.

    Tap the wireless on your printer and note the IP address.

    Using Chrome or another favorite browser, type the IP address in the URL bar.

    This should take you printers EWS (built-in web server)

    Select the tab labeled scan.

    You should now see where you can edit or change your address book.

    I hope this helps you. Let me know if you would like more details, and I dwell.

  • OfficeJet pro 8600: not possible to change the scanning of the Panel of the printer resolution settings

    With my Officejet pro 8600, there is no possibility to change the scanning resolution settings when you are working in the control panel of the printer (not present button to touch) when I want to scan to the computer, while in the manual it is mentioned that, after pressing the Document Type, it should be possible to reach the resolution to change the resolution of the scan setting. On the other hand, when the scan to a memory card the button change the resolution settings is present.

    Sometimes for the scanning of all computers to select (winXP SP3 installed on it). The HP printing software is installed on all computers and manage digitization to the computer is turned on. It is possible to change the resolution settings when using my computer with the HP printing software, but as I said not in the use of the printer.

    Thank you to help you solve the problem!

    Hey mk75053,

    Scanning to memory card has the parameters of resolution through the front because that is the only way for the device perform this type of analysis.  However, to change the resolution settings for the Scan of the computer, one will have to perform scans through the software installed on the PC.

    I have all three types of 8600 models where I am located (base, more high quality) and of all printers simply ask to start the analysis after selecting the scan type.

    I hope this helps.
