Problem with HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer - HELP Please!

Help!

I installed a new set of cartridges (black and color) in my printer HP Officejet Pro 8600 today and now it won't print a document.  I did everything I knew to do that isn't much.  I even uninstalled and reinstalled the printer without success.  I am a 71 year grandmother, who is working on a project for my grandson.  A kind person out there in cyperspace could you please give me some advice on how to restore my printer?  Thank you! Sharon-

I'm so bad that down below where I have to select a category, I don't know even what to check, because I don't think my problem apply to one of them.  It's just a problem with a printer.  Will you please excuse anything I check because I do not know and there is no "miscellaneous" category

Thank you very much for the reply.  After "fiddling around" with the cartridges, uninstalling and reinstalling etc, I finally got to work.

Thanks again for your response!  I appreciate your time!

    Greetings @HPofficejetPro,

    I saw your post about the problems you are having and I can find some things that you can try.

    Have you tried another ethernet cable?

    The same thing happens when you connect with a USB cable?

    HP regularly publishes updates of firmware that can also correct the problem you are experiencing. With the USB cable is connected, you can click on this link to download the firmware update for the. HP Officejet Pro 8600 more e-All-in-One Printer - N911g.

    Is the printer connected directly to a wall outlet or a surge protector or a power bar? We want to connect it to a wall outlet so that we can eliminate the source of energy as the primary cause. See this document for more information on the problems when connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power (Note: this document is not limited to printers Laserjet.)

  • 8.1 Windows Pro problem with HP OfficeJet Pro 8600

    I am running Windows Pro 8.1.
    I tried to install the software and drivers for HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 without success.

    I tried to remove the software, reinstall, reboot the computer, do a 'clean' start, and nothing has worked so far.

    I received the following error message:

    Impossible to install a file that is necessary because the CAB file c:\users\User\appdata\local\temp\7zS2EAD\OJ860x64.cab has a signature digital invalid. This may indicate that the file is corrupted.

    The error message is the same every time I try something new.

    I am able to print, if I add the printer through the option "add a printer" in Windows Explorer, but I want to install the complete software so that I can scan also.

    I downloaded more than 10 times the files several associates of troubleshooting: troubleshooting HP Installation failure MSI, HP Print and Scan doctor, but they have not helped at all.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Alfitoand welcome to the Forums of HP, I hope you enjoy your experience!

    I see that you have found errors during the installation.  I want to help you with this.

    I would start by trying to install on another account on the computer.

    It also seems that there may be a corruption in the temp directory.  I suggest you remove all your temp HP folder.  I am including the steps to get the specific folder:

    -On your keyboard, hold down your windows key and R key

    -A 'RUN' box will become available

    -Type in %Temp%, and then hit

    -Open your folder that begins with 7z

    -Delete everything inside

    -Restart your computer

    Once you have done this, I recommend reinstalling the software using the HP printer install wizard for Windows.

    If this does not resolve the issue, I would recommend going to your home screen in mosaic, and typing in CMD and press to enter.  That will take you to your command prompt.  In you command prompt, type sfc/scannow, and then press ENTER.

    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Problem with HP Officejet pro 8600 Mac parring

    I've recently updated my OS to OSX 10.9.1 and have now lost my wifi connection. I downloaded the latest printer drivers from the net but without success - of the suggestions, anyone?

    Hi Mequetrece,

    I understand that you have a 8600 Officejet which does not seem to connect with your Mac since the upgrade to 10.9. I will definitely do my best to help you with this problem.

    I wish that you check and make sure that the printer has not lost its connection before try us something else. I would like you print a Network Configuration Page , and see if the printer is connected to your network and has an IP address valid. So which shows always connected, I would recommend power cycling your network. To do this, please turn off the Mac and the printer and wait until they are completely off. Then go to your router to remove 30 seconds before plugging plug it back in. Once all the lights are back to normal on the router, replace the Mac, and then on the printer and wait for them both to set before trying to print again.

    If this does not work, you would be able to tell me, did you uninstall your software and reinstall after upgrade to 10.9 or are you still using possibly previous operating system software? (I know you said that you have downloaded the latest drivers, but I ask more for the portion of the question uninstalling )

    Hope this helps, have a nice day!

  • OfficeJet pro 8600 print a single vertical black line when using the charger

    OfficeJet pro 8600 print a single vertical black line when using the charger

    Hi @realestatejeann,

    I see that you have found one black vertical line when using the ADF. With a few steps, we should be able to solve this problem.

    Make sure that the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (do not use a hub or a surge protector) This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.

    Here is a document for the cleaning of the glass Strip and the underside of the scanner cover.

    Vertical stripes, lines or streaks on Copies, faxes or scans.

    If you need help, let me know.

    Good day!
    Thank you.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600: Printer does not print in color

    I just got the color cartridges refilled at Costco. Now, my printer does not print in color.  I printed out a diagnosis and cartridges are showing that they are full.  The actual color of magenta is a deep rose, so I know that some of the magenta is crossing. Cyan (blue) and yellow printed black on diagnostic tests.  I know that Costco filled cartridges with the appropriate color because I can see the color on/in the cartridge.  Suggestions on what to try?

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600: Printer offline and HP Support for Windows 10 don't come upward

    I'm trying to scan pictures to my computer.  Have upgraded to windows 10. My printer is connected wifi.  I bring the printer in Control Panel, set up my printer and it says printer is offline.  Indications are no good they do not appear to be implemented for users windows 10.

  • Officejet Pro 8600 printing problem

    I bought my Officejet Pro 8600 on 4 June 2014. I use windows 7-32 bit, everything worked fine until June 25, when I got an error message when you try to print saying "unable to communiucate with printer. I ran out and the printer worked again. On June 27 the same message, but his time of 8 hours of troubleshooting has not solved the problem. During a clean reinstall everything if fine, green all ticks, then all at once the connection is lost, managed to print a document during this time, but then print to square 1. Sometimes the software automatically detects the Lan connection and sometimes I have to put the IP address but two methods fail after a short time. I closed my firewall, but that made no difference. Talked to my son who is a computer expert and it is strange to have the same problem with its HP printers, which it has failed to resolve yet. I am 72 years old and have reached the point of despair that nothing seems to work and I've only had the printer for 3 weeks, that I would really appreciate if you have a solution. cordially 2dx

    You run any type of anti-virus program?

    Create a new TCP/IP port with the static IP address assigned to the printer.
    Do not use the Port of discovery of HP created by the installation of the printer driver.

  • How to print on legal paper with my Officejet Pro 8600?

    I have an Officejet Pro 8600.  It has a single paper tray that will not grow to hold legal size paper.  I could stuff a few sheets of legal size paper in the tray and close it, but the printer will print only top 11 "of the page.  What can I do to be able to print the full 14 "?

    Hello

    In my view, it will be. Remove all the paper and pull on the status bar, you can see in the lower part (part blue/cyan) which allows you to extend the status bar to accommodate legal size documents.

    Kind regards.

  • 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!

  • How are added to the HP Officejet Pro 8600 printing solution Center

    The center of printing solutions shows my Photosmart C5580.  No idea how to add an OfficeJet Pro 8600?

    Shlomi Hi and thanks for a quick response.

    I had hoped to add 8600 Solution Center as an HP upgrade / download link in the menu Wizard printer you mention using the icon, re - set the default printer for the "8600 Fax.

    He also changed the list of this menu screen to be only four: HP printer Asst (but does nothing when a click), Set Prefs, see what printing and the printer to customize.

    Previous menu, as you no doubt refers, had several printer features that included all submenu links functions, I used (including to scan a doc, preferences, etc.).  Frustrating...

    After uninstalling and reinstalling, tweaking, etc, I always have this quick menu by clicking on the icon of tune.  I have tried different methods of scanning as the right click on the printer in Control Panel devices, but the scanning from which lead to a horrible list of basic functions, a confusing list of formats, etc.

    Finally, I did a scan in the screen menu of the printer who made a point "scan" in the Start Menu, I right click it to pin that on the Start Menu, then created a new shortcut on the desktop with the path to him... and now the icon / printer works to get the menu scanning.  Phew!

    About the loss of the Solution Center is regrettable.  Very handy tool to do the various tasks and the refinements of a scanned document that do not exist in the limited functions / buttons on the 8600 scan menu results.

    At the same time and while I'm... To the laserjet subject large workhorse of HP LJet 1320, several other positions and all forums have problems loss of functionality after passage from XP to Win7.  I finally got all but one device works (PCL6/5th, printing on both sides, etc.), but the pilot is only 600 dpi quality close to the project, instead of the prior 1200 dpi (especially good for forms, thin fonts, etc..).  Which is just a discharge on the technology and support for the products that brought me as a customer to use HP in the first place.

    Thanks again for your reply and your suggestions.  Ready to try anything to solve the so-called reliable downloads / upgrades.

    Best regards...

  • HP OFFICEJET PRO 8600 PRINTING GIBBERISH AT WINDOWS STARTUP

    Hi all!

    My name is Steve and I have a question. I apologize in advance if I'm duplicating this question from another thread.

    Our office has 3 computers connected to a router. The HP Officejet Pro 8600 is connected to the network. There is a problem with 2 of the calculated.

    The question is then 2 3 computers (1 running XP Professional, 1 running Windows 7 Professional are booted up (off) to the printer start printing gibberish and going to print until its cancellation.) Printing will start until Windows has loaded the login window (user account screen).

    Any suggestions? The major functions of printer for everything else.

    Hello

    We use the same previous printer cable. However, we can certainly try another cable. There is no problem printing with any of the programs that we use with the exception of one of them, (known compatibility issue).

    At this point, we don't know if the gibberish that prints to the windows startup is a problem with windows or perhaps the network.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 - Print margins are off, slow and noisy printing

    I have problems printing my printer HP Officejet Pro 8600. When I am able to print the process is extremely slow and the printer made a lot of noise before and during printing. In addition, the margins are off compared to those on the document itself. The left margin is so great that it is cut a part of the document on the right side. I tried to unplug and restart the device and it is set back to the factory, but the questions remain. I printed a test page and it looks good, but speed, noise and margins continue to be a problem. How can I fix these problems?

    Thank you!
