Printer HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus works but the Scanner does not

I recently bought a Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium operating system.  My previous laptop is a Toshiba also upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium operating system.  I have a printer HP Officejet Pro 8600 more all-in-one printer.  The printer/scanner works fine with my laptop more older but with the new laptop that I can't get to the printer.  I am not able to get the scanner to work.  I reloaded the software several times but the scanner still does not work.  The scanner works fine with laptop more old, even if it has the same operating system.  I get an error message that says "Scan of the computer is turned on.  You can start a scan from the printer.  Your computer is not listed as an available computer control panel of the printer.  If please restart your printer and try again. "Can anyone help with this?

Hi ranjisamaraweera,

Even though I'm MVP I represent Microsoft or speak. If I can and will speak
as I think.

The proper functioning of the printer and Scanner is the direct responsibility of the producer of material
and no windows. There are hundreds of these devices that work correctly on Windows 7 if
those who don't have no drivers and other interfaces which are not compatible to Windows 7 should be
written correctly. Of course many older devices are not supported by their creators for later
Versions of Windows. Microsoft passes but does not write drivers and interfaces
Printers and Scanners need to function properly. So, the manufacturer and no one else, is totally
Manager to see if there are interfaces and appropriate drivers.

Many device makers do not write new drivers and interfaces for older hardware because either
they cannot support the new methods or because they want to sell new hardware.

Personally, I don't think that Microsoft is lying because they also say that device manufacturers have the
Omos unique to provide the necessary compatible drivers and interfaces.

I hope this helps.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: Scan of the computer does not work with Win8.1 [solved: problem with USB3 Boost]

    Since I have installed 8.1 (pro), I can't use my 8600 software Pro for scanning the computer (via USB). It seems that there is no communication with the printer regarding the scanning software, but printing as usual.

    Tried to use the HP printer Assistant: when I click on the button "scan a Photo Document or", I get a message "inaccessible Scanner. Also restarted the printer.

    When I try to scan from Photoshop, the system first finds the printer, but it fails to connect.

    Update HP says that my system is up to date.

    HP Print and Scan Doctor 4.2 concludes and tells the printer on the welcome panel and seems to be able to communicate with him, up to a point.

    It gives me a error 'pilot' (sorry if is not called in English - he takes over my keyboard language, which is French and says "Pilot error") and says that no communication could be created between the printer and the driver for scanning, and I have to restart the computer...

    So I did and revived the software of the doctor, who gave me the same error message. This time, I clicked on 'Ignore' and let things. He ran a "Scan" Test twice and said that everything was going well or had been repaired. But strangely nothing on the printer during these 'tests '. And in the end, as he offered to do a scan test myself, I clicked on OK and I got the error message "inaccessible Scanner" again.

    Then I did my scans on a USB key, as I have done a few times already, and has gone very well. But I'd be happy to have this function "Scan to computer" back. How?

    Thanks in advance 23. It is resolved! See to the end.

    I use McAfee (All Access - Total Protection). All green. I did some research using 'Paint', 'Windows Fax' and 'Scan' and checked all the results using McAfee: 'does detect any items that require your attention.

    Here is a series of screenshots when you run printing HP and doctor Scan:

    I click on "Scanning troubleshooting..."

    I click on 'Ignore' right now because I know now that a restart will not help, but I have already tried (see my first post).

    It seems that the problems have been repaired. And if I click on 'Scan Test', it seems too good, initially...

    But if I go on and click on "Scan", bye bye:

    Everything is the same as the first time, as I remember.

    I checked services: dependencies are OK (RPC is in the WIA Service dependencies). Both services are "Running" and "automatic". I stopped and restarted WIA. No change.

    I launched a sfc/scannow:

    Before that, I changed the USB (a new one): no change.

    AND THEN: I unplugged the USB cable connecting the port (USB3) standard (directly on the rear panel of the motherboard) and plugged into a PCI USB3 card. And all was well with the scan.

    Do you think this says something about my motherboard (Asus X 79 Deluxe brand new) or on the Officejet?

  • Change the default print for all printing on OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus

    OfficeJet Pro 8600 more

    10.8.3 OS iMac

    I want to change the value print factory set in the default print setting. I want the documents I send to the printer via AirPrint to print in black and white, not color. But the 8600 by default is always color. Sometimes, I am able to change this setting for individual tasks, but sometimes I can't. I wish that the default to be always in black and white. Is this possible?

    The steps above refer only to the Mac, indeed.

    AirPrint provides all color configurations, but only allow printing in color... all available Airprint parameters are listed in the What are the printing options are available? section below:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02623193

    You can install the HP ePrint app and print through it, like black and white, know that color options are available for the types of documents only (PDF, TXT, MS Office files, Web sites or email), but not for the types of photo files:

  • HP officejet Pro 8600 cannot connect to the scanner

    HP Office jetPro 8600 NG11a, Windows 7 OS, connected to the network via an ethernet connection

    I've only had the printer for a few months. Initially, had problems with the network connection that has been resolved by manually inserting the IP address outside the DHCP range.

    I now keep getting a scanner mesagesaying is not available. I try and turn it back on, but it does not work

    I have run the analysis doctor and followed the instructions but it is unable to solve the problem.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled drivers and who does not.

    Here is mention of the IP address, but as I had all the problems before I am reluctant to interfere with the IP that the printer itself is OK.

    Nothing has been changed on my system, I have not actually used the scanner to date but notice all of a sudden the error message on my toolbar and then found that the scanner will not work.

    I would be grateful for any help.

    Much thanks 2DX

    Thanks for responding.

    I worked my way through all the suggestions and nothing worked.

    For the moment everything is OK, I've installed a new driver of network and turn on the printer before starting the computer well.

    I cross my fingers, but it is very worrying that I had all these problems of network with a new printer.

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I see your HP Officejet 8600 more does not recognize the paper in the tray. Do you get any error messages? I see you are using Windows 10, did this happen after having upgraded to Win 10, or was it a problem before?

  • All-in-one printer, HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus will not print the image in the logo of the company

    I have a Mac the OSX Lion version 10.7.3 (11 d 50) I recently installed this printer. I printed the other documents in color without problem.

    Now, I'm trying to print an invoice with my company logo. The X in the logo is an image that has different shades of blue, but it prints other items on the invoice that are blue. It also correctly print the watermark in blue.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you for responding!

    It turns out that I had to change my color matching print settings to make it work. I went under correspondence of colors and changed the option provider corresponding to ColorSync.

    This automatically replaced by the profile glossy color Brochure instead of paper simply. It's a shame as this used toner and does not allow you to print a copy of the project.

    I tried a couple of the other profiles, but so far they use as much toner, or does not print the logo. I was subjected to time constraints, so I had to stop experimentation, but once this project is completed, I will try the other profiles to see if they work.

    Each morning feeling breaks down until I have restart the printer.  After that, everything works normally.  My daughter has the same model with Windows 7 and having the same problem.  Only, it started a few weeks ago.  Is there a solution for this?

    Or check in the printer "Auto off" is disabled the System Mode Time Out is set to zero (0) Use the built-in webserver (EWS) by visiting the printer address IP address in the address bar of your browser, click on settings tab/Auto Off. Or use the printer, printer Home Page (EWS) Wizard. Also check the properties of your printers.

    Make sure that it cannot be disabled?  Use the built-in Web server on the web to check.

    I just reinstalled the operating system and everything worked fine before this date.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: now really can not print from Officejet Pro 8600 Plus

    It is my second attempt to get help.  First aid made it worse.  I had been unable to print from my printer wireless to my MacBook Pro, iPad, or iPhone.  After 20 hours I managed to do print from a cable (it sees my network but none of my devices can see).  So I posted here asking for help and was told to uninstall the software, repair disk permissions, and then reinstall the software.  But when I downloaded the new software that my computer would not install it because it says it's for Mac system 10.7 or less and I 10.10.  So now I can't print anything at all.  I need this job.  Please help me to fix it for real.  I can't take this more.

    In fact, HP support did not help at all. I finally fixed it myself after a lot of trial and error. The answer was that the printer software was incompatible with the software on my Mac. I removed Rowmote and it started working again. Weird, Rowmote had not been a problem before, but it can be updated. I was told there was new software of the printer of February, but when I went to the driver page with the link that the person a condition he had as the old one. So if he is really a software it should be provided to users. Thank you, they were attentive, though, and I received several phone calls.
