OfficeJetPro 8600: officejet 8600

My printer has been working very well for over a year.  Its connected to the router wired. Recently it has stopped printing and I found that the printing software was no longer on my computer. I tried to reinstall the software, but it says 'cannot find the printer' whenever I try to install.

I ping the printer, I can see the printer IP connected to the router, it shows connected.  Even other software to help HP as Dr. feel, can see the printer.  But as soon as the software tries to install "cannot find the printer.

I'm using windows 7 64 bit, Officejet pro 8600, HP coomputer, Netgear (wndr3800) router

Ive uninstalled the software and tried to reinstall, Ive used the HP of Dr. printing software and it says "software is missing" it downloads the new software and the same installation, "" printer "".

Finally managed to do work, found another question where my Windows Update would not load or update.  Removed some malware/spyware with Hitman Pro and now the Windows Update load and I managed to install the printer.

  • HP OfficejetPro 8600 more: Scan works only from the PC, not the scanner

    My scan of my Officejet Pro 8600 function will not work unless I have run a scan uning the software installed on the PC.

    When I try to scan from the control panel of the printer, I get a notice that says:

    "For scanning to a computer to make sure that the feature is enabled.

    "Windows: open PC software, select the Scanner, andf Actions then select Manage scan of the computer.

    Q - How can I do this?

    Note: since I downloaded Windows 10 I was unable to find this software; Cortana does not work in my area. If I click on the HP software on my PC now I just get "click here to connect a new printer", which is stupid because it is already connected wireless. My other option is to click on "HP Scan" - this works!... great, so I can scan like that, but there is no setting anywhere under HP Scan that will help me solve the problem.

    I checked that the printer and the pc are on the same network and using the same IP address.

    Hello

    Thank you for using the forum.

    In order to activate "Scan to Computer", you need to install your software first.

    What you wrote, it seems that you have just upgraded to win 10.

    When you see the icon of the printer and it will prompt you to "Connect for a new priner", please click it and it will guide you to install your printer on 10 to win.

    Activate "Scan to computer".

    Here are the steps to activate "Scan to Computer".

    1. Go and click on the software for your printer.
    2. Under the "Scan" it should be a "manage Scan to Computer", click on it.
    3. Select "Scan to computer".

    Here is a screenshot (for example) that shows how to turn "Scan to Computer".

    Hope that helps!

    Sunshyn2005,

    I really enjoy taking the time to present a detailed approach to investigate this matter.  It is reassuring to know that it's really mysterious.

    However, in the meantime, I had taken drastic measures: I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software for printing on all connected computers and the problem is not (so far) reappeared.

    Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge.

    In addition, it has two paper trays? If so, what are the bins put in place with and for?

    Hello

    First ensuer printer is directly connected to a wall outlet, not through any power strips, surge protectors, hubs, etc.

    Sometimes such a most probably due to a power relatively question and the steps above are likely to help him.

    So, don't forget to install the latest firmware for the printer:

  • OfficeJetPro 8600 Premium ID missing copy

    Is someone can you please tell me if this is supposed to be a feature of this model.  I can't find the copy ID anywhere.  I followed all the steps that people have posted and this is not the case to find.

    I'm not able to reinstall the firmaware as HP Web site says I have the latest already.

    Thank you in advance

    Hi RoosterMan269,

    Very strange that it is absent. You can do a partial reset to see if that gives you the possibility. On the main screen of the printer, click on the bottom left corner where the Go Back icon would be four times. This will bring up a Menu that is hidden from management. Press on the Help Menu, and then press the right arrow until you see Reset Menu and then press OK. Use the right arrow again until you see partial reset. The printer will then be the shut-off valve, wait 30 seconds and then turn it back on.

    Thank you

  • OfficeJetPro 8600 n911g print driver

    Hi guys.

    We recently purchased the device mentioned about the topic and we want to install this printer to a Print Server 2003 Server (32-bit), the driver is not available from HP and I could not find what I tried...

    Do you think I can find the driver anywhere? or maybe another pilot from the same series would work?

    Thanks a lot in advance

    Hi... I thank you for your answer, this is the case, I download the 32-bit Windows 7 and some driver the exe with Winrar to choose the INFs to him and he simply worked with Server 2003 32-bit.

    Thank you once again

  • OfficejetPro 6830: Officejet 6830: print jobs print but remain in the queue, must be deleted manually

    I just installed a new 6830 of Officejet Pro on my home network - WIFI access.  I installed the driver on each of the two PC of Windows 7 x 64 using Setup.exe of the CD.  All work computers print is printed, but stays to work in the queue so the next task will not display until I manually remove the work with printers and devices-> 6830-> see whats printing.   The symptoms are the same on computer A and B.  I used the HP print and Scan doctor on computer.  He said he has made changes and I restarted.  There is no change in behavior.  I also deleted the driver on computer A and re-installed the software using the installation CD Setup.exe and rebooted.  No change.
    .
    I've seen some similar complaints but many responses suggest cleaning registry system, Services, etc.  Given that the behavior is the same on each computer, I don't think it's a software system.  Each computer has a different story.
    .

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Solved by poster: I used the doctor on the other computer (B).  Yet once, I learned that the changes had been made and I rebooted.  Now when I print, the jobs leave the queue on both computers.  This seems a strange liitle that change from one of two computers that access the printer through WIFI would affect printing from the other computer.  But I am happy - I was about to send the printer back because I had just bought it.

    Summary: I followed the instructions for the 'doctor' in http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02205477.
