OfficeJet Pro 8600: Need universal PCL Driver c. 6.64.0.994

I have a number of printers Officejet Pro 8600 of the series in a Citrix environment.  Compatibility matrix shows that the only factor taken in charge is version 6.64.0.994, but I can't that hollow on the download site, given that the only approach is "what device do you have" not "what software do you want.  Anyone can hang me up with a link to this version?

Thank you.

I suspect that the reference to the 6.64.0.994 version is a reference to a pilot specific printer rather than a universal printer driver (UPD).

As far as I know, there are three UPDs provided by HP, for the following Languages of Description of Page (PDL, s):

  • PCL5
  • PCL6 (aka PCL XL)
  • PostScript (aka PS)

The OfficeJet pro 8600 series printers seem to confirm that the PCL 3 enhanced , and PCL 3 GUI PDLs, so would not be able to interpret the print jobs generated by one of these drivers of the UPD .

... and this specific printer driver may be available for older versions of some operating systems.

Note that the document refer to States 'versiondriver in table 5 reflects the information that was available at the time of publication. After publication, new drivers may have been released; other drivers may no longer be available for download from the HP site. "

It is standard practice for HP (and other printer manufacturers) to produce that printer drivers specific to versions of operating system current when the unit has been produced all first and then rely on pilots (sometimes lightweight) made available by the seller of BONE in some newer versions of OS - but there is no guarantee that these are compatible Citrix.

It may well be an appropriate driver (although not a UPD), especially as the OfficeJet Pro 8600 series is not that old.

  • I need a printer hp officejet pro 8600 for win2000 driver

    Someone in the world has a print driver that works with a printer HP Officejet Pro 8600?

    The Officejet Pro 8600 printer does not support Windows 2000.  I'm sorry.

    However, there may be a workaround solution.  To clarify, I don't have a Windows 2000 system to test this with, and it can take a series of changes for the following steps to work with Windows 2000.  You may need to find the equivalent Windows 2000 for this process steps/formulation as it was done using Windows 7 (the process must be the same).

    It sounds weird, but the Deskjet 990c driver will work for the Officejet Pro 8600, and there's a Windows 2000 driver that is available for download.  However, Windows Update already has this driver and it's easier to use it instead to extract the executable driver and ending.

    Essentially, the printer must be added manually using the Deskjet 990c printer driver.  There may be other resources out there, but I found none on the HP site for the use of this driver instead of the Oifficejet 8600 driver. This will give you only the printing features and nothing else. In addition, there may be problems printing since this isn't an official driver for Windows 2000 for the 8600 (I have not noticed any problems when I did a few test prints).

    1. go where your printers are listed and select the option to add a printer.

    2. Select the option to add a local printer (maybe it's a network printer in Windows 2000).

    3. create a new Standard TCP/IP port.

    4. Enter the address of the printer in the field IP address Ip or host name.

    5. the selection of the pilot window should now be open.  Click Windows update will complete the printer selection screen (may take several minutes using Windows Update).  Select HP for the manufacturer and the printer Deskjet 990c for the printer.

    6 the name of the printer. The default value will be the deskjet 990c since it is the driver used, but I recommend to name what the printer is so that we know what it is.

    7. the sharing screen appears.  If you share the printer, enter the appropriate information.  Otherwise, click Next.

    8. at this stage, the process could be completed.  Print a test page to confirm functionality.

  • Upgrade officejet pro 8600 PCL 3 enhanced PCL 5 enhanced via a pilot?

    Can I put an officejet pro 8600 current capacity of PCL 3 enhanced PCL 5 enhanced via a software driver? Also there are books of HP PCL 5 or PCL 3 programming?

    To add to the response of Bob Headrick:

    The majority of inkjet devices support only hatched Languages of Description of Page, more based on improved PCL3variants; HP does not seem to publish details of these languages (with the exception of some collaborators under license).

    Most LaserJet devices (with the exception of cheap ones) offer three standard s: of PDL

    • PCL5 (PCL5e for monochrome, PCL5c for color)
    • PCL6 (aka PCL XL)
    • PostScript (aka PS)

    Models cheaper LaserJet does not support the PDLs standard, but rather to use other raster "host-based" languages (for example JetReady, which I understand is based on a variant of (very) stripped of PCL XL).

    This link provides a brief history of the PCL language and links to technical PCL Reference and also to other PCL5 & PJL manuals manual; Be aware that some of the manuals (in PDF format) are several megabytes of downloads.

    To get the documentation for PCL XL :

    Go to the developer web site

    Then select the option "Public Software Development Kits.

    Then select the "LaserJet and Digital Sender" kit box.

    Then select the "printer languages |" PCL 6 | PCL 6 records"folder, which gives access to various documents PCL6 (most are in PDF format)."

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600: OfficeJet Pro ePrint 8600 - cannot select paper tray - HP needs to fix this problem

    This is a limitation of the software that HP needs to fix. I bought this machine multifunction largely for two features, ePrint, and two bins to paper. I had released two paper because I often need to print on paper thick and does not want to manually load the cards into the printer whenever I don't want to print on thicker paper. Unfortunately tray 2 is not compatible with card stock so I keep copy regular paper in tray 2 (tray 2 is defined as the default tray) and I keep card stock in Tray 1, which is compatible with cards. The problem and the limitation is when I am traveling and want to use ePrint. Even if my default tray on the printer is 2, which is where the paper is, if I use ePrint to print, HP ePrint by default tray 1, which means that I print on thick paper. This isn't only a problem when you travel. One of the advantages of the ePrint, in theory, is I can print on my desktop at home via ePrint printer when connected to my VPN employers. I've had this machine for two years. It seems that HP would have an update now to solve this problem. So far, nothing. Frustrating!

    Hello @HudsonOH,

    Thanks for posting in the forums of HP and welcome.

    I understand that you are not able to choose your paper tray of your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium e-all-in-one using ePrint. I would like to help with this, as much as I can.

    Unfortunately, when you simply send an e-mail to the printer, you cannot change the print settings, because it uses the default settings on the ePrint server.

    However, if you have an Android or iOS device, you can download the HP ePrint app. This allows you to add the printer by ePrint e-mail address and send print jobs when you are not with the computer (need you an active wifi or data connection, however). The application also allows to select print settings if you can ensure that you don't waste card stock paper you loaded in the machine.

    To download the app on iOS, simply open the app store and type 'HP ePrint' in the search bar.

    To download the app on Android, you can open the store game (or game of Google) and search for "HP ePrint.

    Once you have installed the application, you can add your printer via his email ePrint:

    1. open the ePrint application and select OK on the demo screens.

    2. Once you reach the home screen, it will show your printer name, or not find printers (depending on whether you are at home with your printer, or on the go). Select this check box.

    3. you will see a tab at the top that says all, select it.

    4. press on the + symbol to add a printer.

    5. Enter your ePrint e-mail address and select Add.

    To print using the application, return to the home screen and select an item to print one of the options listed. Note: If you are on iOS, you can even add your e-mail information in the application so that you can print emails.

    In addition, you can sign up here for updates on the new firmware and software for your printer, in which case no alternative workaround should arise: stay connected with updates from HP

    I hope this helps!

  • Need help to set up officejet pro 8600 and scanning to the network on OSX Lion folder

    Hello

    I'm trying to implement my Officejet Pro 8600 more scan to a network under OSX Lion folder.  I have correctly set up the printer otherwise (and can scan and flown from my Mac).  I created SMB sharing as described in the documentation.  My only question is what to enter in the Web server of the printer when it asks for the network path of the shared folder.

    For example, I have the following shared folder:

    / Users/me/Documents/scans/Durable goods received

    on my computer that has name is:

    My iMac

    has an IP address:

    172.16.1.4

    wonder web server of the printer a network path (for example: \\mypc\sharedfolder) but I do not know how to translate my way above in the correct format.

    I tried the following:

    AFP://172.16.1.4//users/me/documents/scans/durable------Goods\ recipes

    but he doesn't like it.

    I also tried:

    Recipes of \\172.16.1.4\Users\bvz\Documents\scans\Durable of goods.

    Nothing helps.

    Thanks for any help or ideas!

    Hello

    First of all, make sure to install the latest firmware for the printer.

    SMBX (used by Lion sharing protocol) support added lately, and the device fails to access any forlder Lion shared with an older FW version:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02919168

    You have shared the folder durable goods received ?

    If so, I guess the correct path would be as follows:

    I suspect also any security program which may block the network connection (assuming that by the description of problem on a single user), temporary disable any software firewall running and check if that can cause printing to stay in spool it print.

    Try to run the HP print and Scan doctor, click on network > firewall help and make sure any firewall running is disabled, then follow Fiox print and check what is happening:
