• OfficeJet Pro 8610: Keep the printer?

  New to the Forum.  I have an Officejet Pro 8610.  My old printer (4620) would turn off and unplug the printer after each use.  Sometimes, I go 2 weeks without use of the machine.  I was told to leave the printer on all the time.  What is the best option for someone who is not a big user of the printer?  Thank you.

  Hi @Bronco1,

  It's really best to let the printer on as he said himself. I have an officejet 6600 that I use maybe once every month or two, I leave it on and it goes into sleep/power mode mode; your printer you will do the same. The advantage to leave, as mentioned, is that the printer will systematically be past in maintenance mode and keep the ink moving regularly. This maintenance helps prevent inks from drying up.

  Keep the print head of your printer is a bit like the oil in your car. If you do not regularly, not only it won't work best, but ultimately it may not work at all. And the cost of maintenance is negligible compared to the cost of the repair if you do not have the maintenance - in the case of your printer, it uses a small amount of ink flowing through the print head and keep it clear.  -J' found this text of presentation with additional information in the following link: should you turn your printer Off when you don't use it?

  Ultimately there is no "right" answer, but I think it is really preferable to leave the printer on.

  I hope this solves your request.

• Basic tips to keep your printer running longer.

  Everyone whats to get the most for their money, but many people do not know or realize, that you have to put in a little effort to keep things smooth.  Just as if you want your car to last for 1 million miles, you need to do regular maintenance.  If you want printer last more than 2 years, you must do a regular maintenance for her as well.  Granted it is not oil to change, or the transmission to the service, but there are rollers that need cleaned and nozzles that need to rinse.

  For all the problems I have all come to work on printers, one I saw put more that it's fair share of printers low is the simple paper jam.  The jam itself is rarely the culprit.  The error message is normally what causes the need for replacement.  The error message might get stuck on the screen and turn your printer brick quite expensive.  The best way to avoid this problem is to not get a paper jam.  Paper jams are actually fairly easy to avoid.  Just a simple cleaning of the rollers with a lint cloth (coffee filter or lens tissue are best, but paper towels work in a pinch) and bottled water are the best things to use.  The lint cloth and water bottles are free of contaminants and ensure that any partial microscopic don't stay on the rolls.  If you're wondering which rolls to own, a good rule of thumb is just to clean one of them you can see and reach safely.  Remember to turn off and unplug the printer before performing any cleaning or before you get into the machine.  You must clean the rolls at least once every six months earlier if you have a problem of dust.

  The next thing I saw leading printers must be replaced, was a print head that was out.  If the printhead goes out, the only options are to replace the print head or the printer if the print head is not replaceable.  Which can be expensive anyway.  The best things you can do to keep your print head is to let your printer is a regular maintenance, clean the print head no matter when you replace an ink cartridge and align the print head no matter when you replace an ink cartridge.  The steps to follow those who depend on the printer you have.  You should be able to find more information a cleaning and print head alignment here.

  Something I have seen a lot, but never really caused replacements, were related to food.  Most of the customers of HP don't know that the printer they bought was built in the surge protector.  It is to have important information.  The reason why it is important is because if you plug a surge protector in an another surge protector, or power strip protector, the device you're trying to power, no matter what it is, will not be able to get all the power they need.  This is very true for printers.  Printers have a sleep mode, which reduces the power they use.  When the printer goes to wake up, it consumes more energy than normal, and a power strip or surge protector, be read as a hint of power, however the built in surge protector knows what is happening.  The first protector of power surge or power strip, will block the necessary extra power and cause errors on the printer.  To avoid this, simply plug the printer directly into a wall outlet.  If a socket cannot be made available, use an extension cord to power the printer from another outlet directly.

  These are the three main things I noticed that cause people to have to replace their printers at the beginning.  Now these things won't keep things of bricking of your printer, but it will go a long way to prevent them.

  I hope this helps.

• Foxfire keeps blocking my Yahoo toolbar; have reinstalled several times

  How can I keep Foxfire to block my Yahoo toolbar. I reinstalled SEVERAL times, but it keeps blocking as soon as I close Foxfire. I tried all the options listed in the other questions and answers, but they do not solve the problem. Whenever I have download the Yahoo toolbar, Foxfire blocks it ~ ~ ~ and it won't allow me to unlock. I use Foxfire because Yahoo forced me to convert about a year ago, my only reason to be with Foxfire is because he takes care of Yahoo. I don't know it that is the problem, but I am still using Windows XP and I have no intention to move to 7 and more - there are too many problems with them.

  This was probably disabled in the update of Firefox because it's an unsigned add-on. Automatically disabled Firefox addons unsigned for the safety of the user.

  Please visit these sections of Mozilla for more information on addons unsigned and how allowed them:

  • Module signature in Firefox
  • Decoupling of the comments since the signing of unlisted modules

  Warning: The steps above may present a security risk. Please use with caution and at your own risk.

  Please consider notifying the proponent of the addon on the issue, so that they can get their addon signed as soon as possible.

• Hi I am trying to get a working version of Java, but Firefox keeps blocking.

  I am trying to view Web sites that use Java, but Firefox keeps blocking. I go in addons and try to authorize but everything is gray and will not let me. Is there a way to use the latest Java and udate or should I go with another browser now?

  If you are satisfied with this 'solution', that's fine, but if the current version of Java does not have to appear on the page modules, there may be several reasons for this.

  (1) you may need to install the 32-bit version for Firefox. He cannot use the 64-bit version. Oracle has more information on this in their technical support article: which Java download should I choose for my system to Windows 64-bit operating?

  (2) the installation program may have failed. You can check the physical presence of the plugin DLL here:

  C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_60\bin\plugin2\npjp2.dll

  If this folder/file does not exist, the installation failed. Please try the installation again.

  (3) Firefox cannot be scans the registry for plugins. Firefox detects most of the plugins in a registry entry. Some users have scanning disabled for some reason any. Here's how check and fix this:

  (A) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (B) in the search above the list box, type or paste the scan and make a pause so that the list is filtered

  (C) If plugin.scan.plid.all is not set to its default value true, double-click it to activate it by default.

  If you have changed this setting, close and restart Firefox to start another analysis.

  If you see the Add-ons page, section Plugins yet, can you find the current Java plugin it and allow it?

  (4) registry file to the Firefox plugin may be damaged. You can remove it and Firefox plugins re-scan.

  Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
  • Menu help > troubleshooting information
  • type or paste Subject: support in the address bar and press enter

  In the first table of the page, click on the "view file" button to launch a new window of Windows Explorer showing your settings files.

  Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

  • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
  • File menu > exit

  Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename pluginreg.dat to something like pluginreg.old

  Launch Firefox back up again. (If you want to restore your previous session non-private use history > restore previous Session.)

  When you return to the Add ons page, is the current Java plugin finally on the list?

• Firefox keeps blocking flashplayer

  keeps blocking flash drive when it is updated

  If you are not accustomed to using the "Request to activate" feature with any of your plugins, here's what to expect:

  When you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification in the address bar icon and one of the following: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an information bar slides between the toolbar and in the page area.

  If you see a good reason to use Flash, and the site looks trustworthy, you can go ahead and click on the Lego-like icon in the address bar to allow Flash.

  But some pages use Flash only for tracking or play ads, so if you do not see an immediate need for Flash, feel free to ignore the notification. It will just sit there in case you later want.

  Until this ordeal of previously unknown security flaws shakes, you might want to try this and see how it fits. To set the Flash 'Ask to activate', after that you have the latest version installed, open the page of modules using either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

  In the left column, click on Plugins. Search 'Shockwave Flash' and always change 'enable' to 'ask to activate '.

• OfficeJet Pro 8600 +: OfficeJet Pro 8600 + very slow to print

  We recently purchased a new MacBook.  From the beginning on this MacBook, our HP 8600 printer takes long time to start an extremetly to print.  Sometimes it prints ever.  The printer is set up wireless.  Sometimes the print area will say that is having problems connecting to the printer, but not always.

  This only happens on this MaxBook.  I have an iMac and a Windows laptop, both connect to the same wireless printer.  Both of these printing devices print jobs fairly quickly.

  I downloaded the new drivers.  Uninstalled and reinstalled the printer.  Restarted the printer and wireless access point.  Disabled iPV6.

  Don't know what else to try.

• MFP HP LaserJet Pro 400 M425dn will not print the text to format 72 points or more

  My workplace has recently bought a M425dn of MFP HP LaserJet Pro 400 all-in-one printer. It works perfectly except for the fact that it will not print text that is 72 points or larger in size. I tried many fonts that are installed with Windows, and all them print correctly to the point size 71.5 or smaller; Another thing simply does not appear in prints. Content which is of size to 72 points or more * fact * affect the flow of the content printed on the page, however. It's like the 72 points or larger text takes up space, but it is completely invisible on the printed page.

  I tested using Microsoft Word 2002 on three separate computers, of which two have installed Windows 7 and Windows Vista installed. The problem is the same on all three computers. The printer is connected via an ethernet cable to our wired network. I have installed the printer software included, and I don't think that there are updates for it that have not been installed up to this point.

  Any thoughts on how to solve this problem?

  Hello, I just made an account to solve this problem for you guys because it has been a puzzle to me also...

  I apologize before the huge hand for the terrible grammar and punctuation that I'm in a hurry

  Now it does not work for everyone but I fixed it on my machine with the following

  now before you print it... .use (ctrl + p) in your text editor to open the print window, click (properties), and then navigate to the tab (Advanced) now, I have a section called the characteristics of the printer in this category there is an option to 'send truetype as bitmap' activate this and see if it can help someone of you, for me, with this PERMIT I can print any font size my processor will allow me to type

  printer itself is

  printer driver is

  I understand that this printer and driver is not identical to yours in itself, but the nature of these drivers makes it highly likely that this solution works for most of you

  If this can help, someone else did post more because I'll probly do not sign in to this site I created this account just for this post and I hope to solve this annoying problem issue for many of you... .no necessary congratulations

  Hi hubox,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  I understand that your HP Officejet pro 8600 more do not print card stock, and I'm happy to help with this problem!

  To get help, I'll need to know:

  • If you use Windows or operating system Mac and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
  • If the printer is connected, USB, Ethernet, or wireless.
  • If the printer is capable of making copies of itself.
  • If the power cable plugged into a surge protector, or directly on a wall plug. Questions when it is connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power. This is true for printers and ink jet.
  • The size of the stock card.
  • The weight of the cardboard.

  In the meantime, please take a look through this paper guide. ' A ' Out of paper ' or 'Choose the motor at a standstill' message and the printer not picking up or feeding of the paper in the main tray.

  I hope to hear from you and thank you for posting!

• HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 won't print web pages in 10 Explorer with Windows 8

  New computer of windows 8 with Explorer 10.  All other computers print fine with my 8500 Pro but it will not print anything except the headers and footers of web pages.  I have chosen European Windows so this isn't the issue.  Other programs work just fine, just not Explorer web pages, for example Google directions.  It's a pain.  I tried to uninstall and reinstall the printer, but nothing seems to work.  Can you help me?

  Hi RufusE,

  I see that you are experiencing printing problems.  I would try using a different driver

  Another driver

  Let me know how it goes.

• HP Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless: Unable to print labels on my HP Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless color inkjet printer

  Hello Forum,

  I don't want to appear redundant, however, I always have the same problem, cannot print on different media (for example. Labels, Matt / glossy papers, etc.) other than plain white paper. As I said in my original post (below), I tried different settings, different programs, etc., without any result. The printer does that pass through without printing media, leaving the error / blinking yellow light.

  I believe that this printer is able to manage different media other than paper white just to 'stick '. Again, I ask your help to solve this problem. It is and has been, very frustrating trying to overcome this restriction of printing!

  Thank you all!

  (Original post)

  I can't get my HP Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless inkjet color printer to print CD / DVD labels. I have tried various printer / paper options but the printer just feeds the media (in this case 'Fellows' brand matte CD 2-top) then spits it right back with result error amber light flashing.

  Printing has a sensor that determines if the paper is loaded and feeding properly into the printer.  If you print on media that is colored or printed features we can confuse the sensor.

  One thing to try - cut a strip of the sticky part of a post-it note maybe 1 "wide by 1/4".  Attach it to the top left of the sheet of labels on the side to be printed, the long side on the short side of the paper.  This will then put face down into the printer, with the band on the upper right of the tray paper.  After printing, you can remove it and reuse it for the next page.

• HP Officejet Pro 8630: Internet connection for printer

  Hello

  I recently bought a HP Officejet Pro 8630 all-in-one printer and currently it hooked to my computer via a USB cable.  Everything works fine.

  I want to participate in the program of alternative to instant ink HP Service.  To do this the said program brochure that I have my printer is connected to the Internet.  I have never made a connection like that.

  Currently, I don't have a cable modem wireless.  Do I need to have a cable modem wireless to connect my printer to the Internet?  If this is not the case, how can I connect my printer on my existing cable modem?

  My cable modem is: Motorola SURFboard of SBV5220

  Thank you

  Mark

  Hello

  Your printer needs to have an ethernet port in the back, where you can connect a LAN cable. You will need to connect a LAN cable to a free port on your current modem on the back of the printer - this should establish an internet connection.

  

• Windows XP Pro vs home Installer CD - interchangeable?

  Need to enter a Windows XP Pro SP3 Recovery Console to run CHKDSK.  Only have a family WIndows XP Edition installation CD.  Are the XP Pro and Home files needed for recovery, the same?  In other words, can I use another XP Home CD to access the Recovery Console to run CHKDSK?

  Also on a different note... on another computer... I want to reinstall Windows XP Pro with someone from another WIndows XP Pro installation disc.  What I understand as long as you use your own product key, that it will work.  Don't want to try but... I would like to know in advance.  Years ago Dell did not CD when the computer was purchased.  :-(

  Thank you.  This forum is a great help!

  can I use another XP Home CD to access the Recovery Console to run CHKDSK?

  If the only thing you want to do is run the Recovery Console, the answer is Yes. :-)
