  • Will not print blue/yellow

    HP Pro 8500 AIO Wireless Oject - 3 months warranty. Will not print blue or yellow. I realigned, cleaned and calibrated. I unplugged and reset. Still no go. In addition, the print head carriage does not move left back when the top is open. Any ideas?

    Hey Mudlizard,.

    I see that you have a problem with printing yellow and Cyan with your Officejet 8500 Wireless.  The printer has 2 printheads inside: Cyan/Magenta and yellow/black.  If you have a problem with these 2 colors, then it is possible that the two print heads have gone wrong.  However, it is also possible that the unit has developed a problem in the electrical circuit of the printing system.

    The print heads can be purchased for this printer most retailers who carry the HP ink cartridges.  Do not forget that these retail for $ 50-60 each print heads.  Buy the two print heads would cost close to $100 usd.

    Have you considered to call the HP Technical Support to see what options may be available in the upgrade program?

  • HP Office Jet Pro 8610 do not print, but will only fax

    We have a HP Office Jet 8610 Pro and it worked fine until we hung like a fax also Thursday.

    He used to copy, print, scan perfectly but it takes a new fax machine, so we went and bought the phone cord and hung a fax and telephone line with built in answering the Office Jet and the fax jobs, but now it not print a document in Open Office to the printer because she's trying to make a fax cover page.

    I've ran out of ideas can you please help?

    There are two pilots "printer" there, to print, choose the "printer Officejet Pro 8610' instead of the 'Officejet Pro 8610 FAX. Probably, you set another value by default when the fax feature is added, which is for the PC - fax. If you use the print function more often than the fax, make non-fax the default printer.

  • My 6520 6510 printers will not print black ink

    Replace a black cartridge in my Photosmart 6510 printer and it wouldn't work.  Check all measurements in the help guide.  Still does not work.  We also had a Photosmart 6520 in the storage of a recent move, so tried.  Using the same cartridges, black ink will still not print.

    Something to do to get this working?

    I would advise giving HP a telephone support call about this, as you may need a replacement. Can you please let us know how you get on? Thanks, Ciara

  • HP Office Jet 7612: lid will not stay in position trying to place a document on the scanning of glass plate.

    The top cover does not stay in place, trying to place a document on the scanning of glass plate.

    If not held with a hand he's going to slam closed.

    Y at - there a setting to make the lid to stay until my document is placed to be analyzed.

    I'm not placing books or strange shaped items on the plate scanning, only flat documents.

    If we're not careful the cover (which is heavy) will be slam down and hit someone's fingers or hand if not aware of this problem

    HP notified, they informed me that they would send me a replacement printer. The springs in the upper lid has failed or missing. Even if it took 2 phone calls and more than 2 hours on the phone, I guess it was worth it to get a replacement. It is due to the arrival on 12/14/15

  • I reset my router, now my two wireless printers will not print wireless.

    I reset my router and now none of my HP printers can print wireless.  They print with a USB key, but the installation program for the Wireless does not detect my wireless network.   I use an iMac and Airport extreme router.

    I have a different brand printer that works wirelessly now.  I don't understand why HP printers attached to the network.  Printers are c4780 and 4500.

    I tried your solution but still could not solve the problem.  I called HP support.  After a few minutes they determined that since it was an old printer and I recently updated my software on the computer and did a upgrade to the router, when I reset the router was not compatible with my printer.  They also suggested that I try with an old computer,.

    So, I ordered a HP OJ8600 at a great price and will move the printer on another computer.

    So Bravo are so your information, even if it was my fault for failing to provide more complete information, and given that the printer works somewhere else and I have a compatible printer on the way, I consider that this problem is solved.

    Thank you very much for your help.  I appreciate it.

  • Office Jet 6500 will not print after changing the ink cartridges

    Office Jet 6500 will not print after changing the ink cartridges

    Hello

    This doesn't seem to be a problem with the printer itself and not Windows. I also suggest to contact the manufacturer. In this case, HP.

  • Office Jet 6700 Premium: unable to print from 6700 JO unless I wake up

    Hello

    The appellant here desperate because I cannot solve this ongoing problem.

    System set up:

    Office Office

    HP Office Jet 6700 premium

    Wire in a BT Home Hub

    Laptop HP EVO, running wireless

    Problem:

    I can no longer print the laptop wireless. I need to go to my office and print something. Then only the printer seems to be "awake", and then I can print from the laptop. As you can imagine this is not how it is supposed to be and this causes a lot of frustration.

    The printer is also set for a static IP address (it was to solve other printing problems ). I also checked the firmware, and it is up to date.

    Please tell us how to solve this problem.

    Thanking you in advance

    Wolfgang

    Hi @Klee66,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that your HP Office Jet 6700 Premium do not wake up when you print on it, unless you wake up before hand. I'd be happy to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.

    There could be many reasons why this is happening, so please bear with me.

    I see what your printer firmware is up to date, which is good.

    • 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.

    Please try Fix It tool of Microsofts, solve printer problems.

    You do not share the printer from the computer desktop you have in sharing files and printing? Otherwise, this could cause part of the problem.

    Do you turn the printer power on and off?

    I can't see what your printer is connected to the BT Hub with an ethernet cable.

    It is possible that the laptop is connected to the printer cannot communicate on the 5.0 GHz network. If they are of the same name that will be confusing.

    Have you tried to configure the wireless and no cable connection on the printer to see if it makes a difference?

    How old is the router, have you also checked to see if the router firmware is up-to-date?

    Is the router dual-band? Two networks are the same SSID for 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz? If so, change the SSID to 5.0 GHz to a different name and restart all devices.

    What router do you have to BT?

    I suggest you read this article by BT, I have problems of connection of 5 GHz and features dual band wireless BT Home Hub 4 or 5 Hub.

    I see that you have setup a static IP address. It's a good idea to assign the printer a static IP address outside your DHCP range. For example, some routers default DHCP is located between 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.200. So, I would use 192.168.0.232.

    While in SAP, open the network tab, and then select IPv4.

    Set the manual DNS on the printer.

    • Set the primary DNS as 8.8.8.8
    • And the secondary DNS as 8.8.4.4

    I would like to try the steps in this guide, HP printers - printer (Windows 8) "offline" Status Message.

  • Have 2 printers on the computer and the PC will not print one when you switch to the other?

    Have 2 printers on the computer and the PC will not print one when you switch to the other?

    Having a printer at the office and one at home, but use the same PC for both? Unable to print at home after bring you it to the office (and vice versa)?

    If you USB, most of the time, the PC will recognize what printer is which. Sometimes PORTS does not commute. You can manually change the correct ports if necessary.

    CLICK ON THE MENU START

    1 devices and printers

    2 right CLICK on the printer

    3. choose the PRINTER PROPERTIES

    4. click on PORTS

    5. There will be a list of ports with one (checked marked). If it's on the wrong port, change to the right pair and choose APPLY.

    (NOTE: it must ALWAYS be on a USB port or a wireless connection.) Some ports wireless start with a #(adresse IP) or a SERIAL number)

    I hope this helps. Sometimes, you can create your own port if you have more questions.

  • My office print 8600 ProPlus will not print pdf files sent from an iPad with ePrint.

    My office print 8600 ProPlus will not print pdf files sent from an iPad with ePrint.  I just get an error message when I go to the HP Eprint centre.  It prints the address email of the coverage, but nothing else.  The attachment is not sure that I can see.  I tried to send an attachment from my Mac and worked well.

    Thank you for your response and I am sorry for the delay to return to you.  I tried save the Pages document in a Word document and send it to the printer using ePrint but it is even.  That is to say the handout printed but not the attachment.  However, when we removed the accompanying document and sent the attachment in its own it has worked well for we have managed to solve the problem. Thank you very much.

  • Four Office 2003 security updates will not install

    I have four absolutely the Office 2003 security update will not be installed. I tried all the solutions I could find so far short of uninstalling and reinstalling Office. I am Windows 7 64-bit and many of the solutions I found reference XP or Vista, although I don't know how much difference that makes at this point. The updates are KB2289163, KB2284695, KB244978 and KB2466074. Other updates have succeeded since they refused to install after the download, but these four still just won't do.

    What are the error codes that are specific to these four Office updates?
    Have you tried the advice of the PA bear?

    You could start a free Windows Update support, but it would be more efficient to just reinstall Office 2003 time.
