how do i get the hp officejet pro 8600 premium to print from my ipad2 using airprint? The iPad does not see the printer.

Hi RiverBirch,
What brand and model is your router?
First, connect your printer to your router.
1. From printer front panel, press Wireless>Wireless Settings>Wireless Setup Wizard and follow the onscreen instructions to successfully connect your printer with an IP address.
Secondly, connect your iPad to the same router.
1. Connect your iPad to the Internet and download the free HP ePrint Home & Biz app from the apps store.
2. Connect your iPad to the same network as the printer. Settings>Network.
3. Use the new HP Home & Biz app to print and scan photos or docs from your iPad!
Alternatively, you can also perform Airprint on the iPad thru the wireless network from the Photos menu in your iPad.

How do I get the HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus to print only black or grayscale? What is the procedure?

How do I set my HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus to print only black or grayscale? What is the procedure?

Hi, Looks like you have to do this from the aplications. Here is the procedure from its manual, page #36: 1. Load paper in the tray. For more information, see Load media.
2. On the File menu in your software application, click Print.
3. Make sure the printer you want to use is selected.
4. To change settings, click the button that opens the Properties dialog box. Depending on your software application, this button might be called Properties, Options, Printer Setup, Printer, or Preferences.
5. Change the paper orientation on the Layout tab, and paper source, media type, paper size, and quality settings on the Paper/Quality tab. To print in black and
white, click the Advanced button, and then change the Print in Grayscale option.
6. Click OK.
7. Click Print or OK to begin printing Regards.

How do I get my HP Officejet Pro 8500 won't print from a program called "The Print Shop 12"?

I can not get my printer to print from this one program I have called "The Print Shop 12." I don't get an error message, it acts like it want to print but then nothing.

I do not know about the Print Shop program but I know that sometimes quickbooks has this issue. We have two different work around for this, 1st one Click your start button go to your printer & devices folder and right click the 8500 printer and either RENAME it or go to Properties to Rename is to OJ8500 and then Apply and safe that change and try it.
2nd step if that does not work, click start, go back to the printers and faxes and "add a printer" when you get to the list of manufactures click HP or Hewlett-Packard and look for the deskjet ICC printer and add it, naming it PrintShop and then you should be able to printer threw that program.

Does the HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 support e-print? I am running on Win 7 Pro 64 bit

Can you please tell me: does the HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 support e-print? I cannot seem to find or generate or figure out how to create an e-mail address for this printer. Thank you.
This question was solved.

Hello BoPeepLamb,
The OfficeJet 8600 Printer does support ePrint. You can access the printers email address by enabling Web Services from the main display on the printer. The icon is located on the top left corner of the screen and looks like piece of paper with circles behind it. Before you can enable Web Services you must make sure you have a valid internet connection first.
Once you have enabled Web Services, you should have a mobile printing sheet print with a printer code and link to http://www.eprintcenter.com where you can create an account and customize your printers email address.
If you have any other questions feel free to reply to this post and I will try to find an answer for you.
If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

My HP Officejet Pro 8600 can't print from my MacBook Air

Hi,
My HP Officejet Pro 8600 can't print from my MacBook Air. It keeps on showing "The printer is not connected", but the screen on the printer shows connected. I often reset the printer 'EVERY TIME" I want to use it. I also tried to turn off my laptop and printer several times before printing. If I'm lucky enough, it will work maybe for one or two prints. If no luck then I'll have to reset everything again. Sometimes I reset the printer, the printer will not show on my selection.

Hello boojoo1tw,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're unable to print most times with your Officejet 8600. How is this printer connected? Wireless or USB? What is your operating system on your Mac computer? Click here to find out.
If your printer is wireless, then I would recommend assigning a "Static IP Address" by following this HP document on Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection.
Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you.

Hp Officejet Pro 8600 Premium suddenly printed very slowly from PC

Hi, and thanks for any insights.
I have a client with an Officejet Pro 8600 Premium, and printing to this printer over USB has suddenly become very slow. The dedicated PC is XP with 2 GB of ram and only using 40 GB on a 200 GB drive. The printer has two trays, with tray1 dedicated to checks, and tray 2 for anything directed to plain paper. The printer is not connected to a network, but dedicatd to this PC. The PC is current with updates.
Checks print at the normal speed, and copying prints at reasonable speed, but whejn printed from the PC anything directed to tray 2 prints at a snail's pace . This is new behavior.
I have printed status pages and performed print head and allignment processes. Still, this behavior persists.
I looked i the event log and saw nothing that suggested an evident system issue. Windows update only shows Security Essentials updates for the duration during which the slowness started.
The PC is not acting strangly in any other way.
Any suggestion would be helpful.

Hi,
The information is very general, this applies for many HP printers:
Solution 1: Use a lower print quality setting
Solution: Check the print quality setting. Best and Maximum dpi provide the best quality but are slower than Normal or Draft. Draft provides the fastest print speed.
Cause: The print quality was set to a high setting. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
Solution 2: Check the ink levels
Solution: Check the estimated ink levels in the ink cartridges. NOTE: Ink level alerts and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low on ink message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the ink cartridges until print quality becomes unacceptable.
CAUTION: Wait until you have a new ink cartridge available before removing the old ink cartridge. Do not leave the ink cartridge outside of the printer for an extended period of time. This can result in damage to both the printer and the ink cartridge.
For more information, see: Check the estimated ink levels
Cause: The ink cartridges might have insufficient ink. Printing with depleted cartridges slows the printer. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
Solution 3: Contact HP support
Solution: Contact HP support for service. Go to: www.hp.com/go/customercare. This website provides information and utilities that can help you correct many common printer problems.
If prompted, choose your country/region, and then click Contact HP for information on calling for technical support.
Cause: There was a problem with the printer.
Regards.

How do I get my HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus to print a small font?

to print a larger siged font.

Hey , I understand that you are not able to print the court seal on legal documents on your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One Printer. I would like to assist you today with resolving this issue. However, I do need to clarify a few things before I will be able to guide you to a solution. (1) What program are you printing these court documents through? (2) Does the court seal appear in a Print Preview window under the program? Once I have the answers to my two questions above I will be happy to guide you to a solution. I look forward to hearing from you!

Officejet Pro 8600 Plus wont print from Mac 10.5.8

Hello,
I just purchased the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus and I'm running it wired through my router. I'm able to print with my PC, my IPad and my phone but I cant print with my mac running OS 10.5.8.
When I try to print it puts the document in the print que and says "printing" but nothing happens at the printer. I can scan to my mac from the printer and everything seems to indicate that the printer is connected.
I have downloaded the latest HP driver for Mac 10.5. Also i have reset the printer (holding down the option key while deleting the printer from the system preferences) several times and re-added the printer. Still nothing.
Any ideas?
Greg

Reset the printing system:
- Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan
- Option click the '+' sign and select Reset Printing System.
WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
- Select the plus sign to re-add a printer. Select the Defualt tab on the top of the window. Look for the printer, select it and then next to the "Use" pulldown, select the printer model (not AirPrint). Wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.

Officejet Pro 8600 2-sided printing from iPad or iPhone

Hi - I just purchased an officejet pro 8600 so that I can print from my iPad or iPhone. It has the 2 sided printing but I want to know if there is a way to turn of the 2 sided printing from these devices. Right now when I print it automatically defaults to the 2-sided printing but I would prefer 1 side printing only. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thank you!

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus wont print on 5x7 cardstock using LibreOffice

Hello,
I am trying to print a file on 5x7 cardstock (I am using LibreOffice) and the printer comes up with an error message that reads "Paper Missmatch: The paper size selected does not match the paper size selected in software.
If the paper loaded in the printer is the correct size, change the selected paper size in your software and re-send the print job. If the paper loaded in the printer is not the correct size, change paper and resend the print job."
However, it doesn't give me an option to change it in the software. How do I do this?
The page settings are correct in LibreOffice.
Thank you,
Shelby

Thank you,
I tried a whole bunch of things, I ended up having to convert the file to a PDF, change a couple of the size properties there and then when printing I had to choose the Hagaki option. It printed it off centre and smaller but I could work with it. It wouldn't print any other way, otherwise it would print it landscape (but not all the wording and pictures would be on) and I needed it portrait.
If I ever have to print on 5x7 cardstock again, I'll try all those steps and let you know for sure!
Thank you for taking the time to answer my question.

OfficeJet Pro 8600 Premium - Cannot Print Info Sheet in Order to Obtain Printer ID

I have been trying for a few hours now to get my hpeprintcenter account set up. It is asking for a Printer Code and says that you should be able to obtain it by printing the Info Sheet from the ePrint menu on the Printer.
The problem that I am having is that when I click on the Print Info Sheet Button, the printer freezes at Now Printing...and never does anything else.
I have tried on different internet connections, I have power cycled the printer, I have disabled Web apps and re-enabled, I have set the 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 DNS entries as mentioned in the other posts and none of these things will allow me to print my info sheet in order to get my account setup.
Everything else works fine. I am able to print from tablets and from my laptops over the wireless network and there doesn't seem to be any type of internet connection error on the printer.
Anyone have any ideas what I might be able to do to fix this. Getting to be at my wits end over this.

What's the name of the router you have? Also, I would make sure that nothing was entered under proxy settings.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium will not copy or scan.

Hello,
I have a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium that prints just fine however it will not copy or scan. When I attempt to copy a document it displays Starting Copy... on the printer but will not copy and must be turned off and on to use the printer again. When I attempt to scan it brings up an error box telling me to check all of my network connections.
I have already tried the services.msi fix and have ran hp printer and scannor doctor tool to attempt to fix my problem.
In the services.msi I found that all services dependant on (WIA) were already running and set to automatic.
The scan doctor found that It wasn't communicating with the drivers, which I then reinstalled, and restarted the computer. It then continued to have problems with the drivers and asked me to contact support.
Thank you for your time.
edit: The printer is also running the latest firmware and I have also checked my anti-virus firewall so that it is allowing the printer through network. (note: in attempt to fix the issue i have both a usb and network connection trying to get either connection to work).

Hi-
To make sure I understand this correctly, you are unable to do a copy at the device itself? This should function without the device being connected to a PC at all. if this is indeed the case, it sounds as if this is a hardware issue. I would then check with HP support on your product for warranty repair.

Printing directly on CDs/DVDs on a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium printer??

I have the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium and was wondering if I can print on CD and DVD discs with this printer and How do I do this?? And if not how do I print on DVDs and with what HP product do I use for it??

HP does not currently produce any printers that can print on CD/DVD's which includes the 8600.
Take a look at the Epson XP-810.
