OfficeJet pro 8620: HP 8620 won't print via wireless for nay on my home mac

I have 2 Macs in my home, Macbook, and Macbook Pro running Yosemite. I tried to implement a pro 7310 office via an ethernet cable printer to print wireless from these two macs and after 3 frustrating months trying everything that I could find, I bought the 8620 thought that would solve everything.

Instead, it's the same. I am trying to print from firefox or word or anything and it cannot find the printer. But if I turned off everything, including the Mac and the router (N of Belkin N300 router wirleless) and the computer and then turn them back on, the printer is detectable and prints well. It just seems to disappear and I can't find it when searching for available printers after a few hours. I installed the last softeare for this printer and it worked when fine forst, implemented.

Any help would be greatly appreciated that I spent way too many hours trying to figure this, it doesn't help that I'm not that tech savy.

Thank you!

Hello @bokke ,

Welcome to the HP forum.

I understand that you are having problems of communication between your two Macs and your 8620.

I would like to help.

Three things have caught my attention.

You said that this is happening to both computers.

You also mentioned that the same thing happened to another model of printer.

Finally, after you power cycle your network everything works. At least for a little while.

I feel that we should seek less software and more to your network.

Belkin N300 wireless N Router, how old is this router?

How is the printer to the router?

Your router should have the following configuration

~ The multicast must be on or enabled (allows connectivity Hello)

~ Wireless Ports, they can also be frozen in security software:

The incoming (UDP) ports: 137, 138, 161, 427

Outgoing (TCP) ports: 137, 139, 427, 9100, 9220, 9500

~ Our printers support only the 2.4 GHz not 5 GHz

~ Recommended that the network name and password DO NOT containing and spaces/punctuation or special characters ~ Dual Radio enabled (for b/g wireless & networks n)

~ Mac disabled filtering

~ The built-in firewall must be the default or the lower settings

This should solve the problem.

PORTS TO UNLOCK.

UDP: 137, 138, 161, 427, 80 & 443

TCP: 137, 139, 427, 9100, 9220, 9500, 5222 5223

So please make sure that multicast & Hello are enabled. Also never hurts to check for an update of the firmware.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8620 does not print, but the document is sent to the printer without error

    I bought a HP Officejet Pro 8620 and connect 2 computers via a wireless connection with the latest driver.
    In the first computer (windows 7) I can print without any problem
    On the second one (windows 8), when I try to print, I can see in the windows printer spooler file that I'm going to print. The file is sent to the printer, without error, BUT nothing happens.
    I already tried reinstalling the drivers, restart the computer, the printer. I tried to connect to a wired network. It still does not. It's very weird but I got no error, just does not print. I thought that the printer does not work, but on the second computer I can print.
    Thank you for your advice

  • New OfficeJet Pro 8620 does not print PDF files

    I have a brand new 8620 and I use Windows 7. My printer prints a few PDFs but not most other PDF documents. I am using Acrobat Reader XI. The printer will print from MS Office.

    HELP, please!

    Hello! Welcome to the @lmel forums

    I have a few ideas that come to mind, I read the issue you're having with printing of PDF files. They are here!

    1. try to resave the PDF files that do not print and then try printing again.

    2. update of Adobe:

    Select help - search for updates. If a new update is available, it installs automatically.
    Once installed, you can restart a computer.
    Then try to print the PDF file.

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Acrobat/KB/troubleshoot-PDF-printing-Acrobat-Reader.html

    3. run the print and scan the doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for all conflicts that may be causing the problem. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there is a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results.

    4. uninstalling the printer software

    Restart the PC

    Reinstall the printer: HP Officejet Pro 8620 e-all-in-One Printer series full feature software and drivers

    That should do the trick! Keep me abreast of the results!

    Have a great Wednesday

  • HP Officejet Pro 8620: Selection easy printing on tray 1 or 2

    We have an Officejet Pro 8620 with extra paper tray. Tray 1 for Virgin paper, tray 2 for the paper with the logo of the company.

    Now, when we want to print to tray 2, we reject Tray 1, whereas, after a few attempts the software switches to tray 2 and printing begins.

    It is possible, before printing, to change the setting in the software, select printing for tray 2. But it's pretty heavy.

    We want an easy way to select printing for Tray 1 or the tiroir2. For example, as seen in other environments, so that we can choose to print on:

    -HP Officejet Pro 8620 (Tray 1) or

    -HP Officejet Pro 8620 (tray 2)

    This could be seen as a separate printers. How can we achieve this?

    Change the setting every time, is not a good option. In addition, we have other software that we want to configure so that they automatically print to the correct bin.

    Thank you!

  • OfficeJet Pro 8620: Officejet Pro 8620 won't copy. Tried the hard reset suggested in the forum.

    Won't copy even if she looks like her do something. Error message reported that incorrect paper size has been used. All other functions seem fine. Just bought.

    Odd. If it was the lamp of the scanner, it would happen, but you wouldn't be able to scan. If it was the print head removes you from the copy of the blank pages and not be able to print. It's really a weird question. I sent you something to try out via private message.

    If you are unfamiliar with the operation of the function of private messages of the Forum, this post has instructions.

    If the steps I sent do not resolve the problem, it will be best to reach out to the hotline. They may have additional options.

  • All-in-one Officejet Pro 8620: hesitation in printing final page

    Just bought this printer and it works fine except for perhaps as long as 10 seconds in the middle of the last page of a multiple page print job stop.  I had several HP printers over the years and have never had this before.  Generally, the pages just well rip out all the way to the end, but it's very annoying.  It's just a feature of the machine, or can I do something?

    Thanks for your advice.

    I should be able to provide assistance.  You can make a custom code for you Officejet 8620 in SAP as you said. Do this access EWS printers again and go to the network tab, and then tap on wireless directly on the left side.  Click on change settings and you can change the access code.

    It's direct wireless installation.  Direct wireless is to make your printer emit a signal wireless to your computer or other computers can connect to, and print to the printer.  If your computer is connected to the direct wireless to the printer then you will have access to the internet until you put your computer on your regular network.  Just to make sure that you are aware.

    I spend a month trying to solve this problem.  Wireless printing, documents hang in the queue and print ever.  When informed of the printer is cycled off the power then, the documents are printed wireless, but only for a temporary period of indefinite duration.  The next time I use the computer, the problem repeats.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software several times.  Running printing HP and Scan doctor says all right.  It is not.  Your expertise is appreciated.

    The problem has been resolved by replacing the ink cartridges non HP with geniune HP cartridges.
