  Hello

  HP and Firefox do not own/have any which PDF product that is why we cannot blame them. Normally in Firefox you 'Print {certain kinds of PDF wrirer}' not 'Save as PDF '. Please try in Firefox:

  -Click on print.

  -Select the PDF file on the list of printers,

  If you don't find a PDF in the list, please download the following file and install on your machine:

  Hi there @ElliottO

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

  I understand that you get an error message when you try to connect to the Windows store. You have problems with other Web pages having the same error, or are you able to navigate normally?

  With a bit of checking, it seems that it's an unusual problem, but there are several causes. Here are a few pages of various related forums that can help:

• This officejet pro 8600 is not duplex scan size of different pages, only the size of page letter

  I have a desktop hp jet pro 8600 and printer. My original printer scanned pages front and back of different sizes, the printer stopped scanning properly and I replaced with the same model. Now, this printer can not scan other than letter size paper. I can only scan two-sided letter-size pages! The reason why I bought this printer has been for its scanning capabilities. I talked to support HP they said it scans only some dimensions of the page in duplex mode. Please HP DIFFICULTY this problem and give your customers the ability to SCAN RECTO VERSO DIFFERENT SIZES of PAGE. I've been with hp for many years, printers, laptops and a computer

  Message reads

  "The document feeder only supports analysis for some sizes of paper double-sided. If your original is too long or short, use the scanner glass.

  HP I'm supposed to use glass scanner page-by-page, I bought a officejet pro for special to spend less time scanning features manually. I wonder what the reason for this restriction of page size, it worked on my previous printer.

  I solved this problem without downgrading the firmware to version CLP1CN1232AR.

  I downloaded and installed HP Web Jetadmin to do this (www. HP.com/go /webjetadmin). Then, I followed the instructions on the manual (http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01943164.pdf) to activate this option.

  The image I used was obtained on the HP ftp site: ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/networking/software/pfirmware

  The name of the image is: ojpro_8600_n911_g_n_1232A_09272012.ful.rfu

  Now, I can scan both sides of the legal size.

• wake the computer to run an antivirus scan

  Is it possible to activate the computer to run an anti-virus scan?  I use The Shield antivirus program, and when I schedule a task to wake the computer and a scanner, it is unclear what part of the computer to scan and so he does nothing.  I don't know if the field "argument" is where I said what file to be reviewed or what, but I couldn't begin to know what to put as the argument anyway.  I can program the computer to run a scan when he's awake.  There is a task called awake auto that wakes the computer; It is a task that I could plan to run before the antivirus scan to allow the scan to run without the Task Scheduler from the analysis?  Do you know if the task of awakening auto has a path?

• These antivirus scans and defragmentation clash?

  (This happened once... a while ago so I don't remember every detail... and I just want you to...)

  my friend recommended should I defrag my computer.

  for the VERY 1st time, so I decided to leave my computer to defragment at night. at the same time, I decided to launch a norton 360 virus scan.

  When I woke up the next morning and checked my computer, the defragmentation is NOT ended (I don't know if he stopped or he has not done Defrag, but I left it to defragment for 10 h + and I'm SURE he finished defragmentation after 10 h +) and analysis antivirus norton 360 stopped at a certain file (I don't remember which file it was).

  This occurs when you run a virus scan and Defrag at the same time? or should I worry that it is a problem of computer virus?

  Hello

  In short, what you saw is not a problem. Both at the same time should not be a problem because they have different levels of priority (i.e. it must not interfere with each other). It is normal to see still some fragmentation when a routine defragmentation is complete, not all files can be moved.

  The only thing I would be concerned with is the file of your Norton stopped on software. That normally happens only when it has detected either a possible infected file, or it is looking for confirmation from the user.
