How to Change Wi-Fi Channel Used by Wireless Direct on HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium?

I would like to change the Wi-Fi channel that is used by Wireless Direct between my Lenovo laptop and my HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium to reduce interference from other nearby users of Ch. 6 in my condo complex. (I am not using a wireless router setup to connect to the printer.)
Is this possible?  If so, how?

Ah... ok.  You are using the Wireless Direct with the printer.  You computer is wireless to channel 6.  That is all you can do unless you changed the router's wireless channel which will only automatically switch on your computer.

    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.

  • Trouble w/ Wireless Printing to HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Using Time Capsule

    Hi there –
    My Setup:
    New MacBook Pro
    Comcast Internet (Wireless Router)
    2TB Time Capsule (Setup as "New Network" and connected to wireless router via Ethernet WAN)
    HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 All-In-One (Wireless - not wired connection - and using Wireless Direct)
    I am trying to let the HP Printer be wireless only. When I run on the Comcast wireless network using the SSID and Password of our default home network (not using new Time Capsule network), I can print from all my devices (MBP, iPhone, etc) wirelessely just fine.
    When I create the new Wireless network using the Time Capsule, and configure the printer with the SSID and password, I cannot connect to the printer.
    Should the configuration be different in the case where I use the TC network?
    I have also tried setting up the HP printer as a WPS Printer, and I had the same results...nothing.
    Anyone have any advice?
    Thanks!
    Daniel

    Do you mean at the Comcast Wireless gateway?
    No .. from what you wrote the Comcast works ok .. it is the TC that is not working.
    That is correct?
    Is the TC in bridge mode.. but creating a wireless network?? That is how it should be connected and wireless should be different name to the comcast if you are trying to troubleshoot.
    If the network name on the TC is compliant then the printer should connect..
    Turn off the wireless security on the TC to see if it is the problem.
    Once you complete this setup it is very important for you to reboot the whole network.. restart in correct order.. modem.. TC .. clients.. 2min gap.
    Then make sure all the clients are connecting to the wireless on the TC not the wireless from the comcast.

  • How do i print from my iphone and i pad to my officejet pro 8600

    how do i print from my i phone and i pad. where do i find my email address for the printer

    In order to AirPrint from your iPad/iPhone, here's all you need to do:
    1. Make sure the printer and iPad/iPhone are connected to the same local network.
    2. Open something you want to print (on the iPad/iPhone).
    3. On the iPad/iPhone, tap the "Action" button (arrow curving out of a box).
    4. Tap "Print".
    If you run into any issue try the below steps:
    1. Power off the printer.
    2. Completely power off the iOS devices (hold the Sleep and Home buttons simultaneously until a message appears asking you to "Slide to power off". Slide across that bar, and it should completely power off).
    3. Power the printer back on.
    4. Power the iOS devices back on.
    5. Try to print again.
    Those steps usually resolve the issue. If they do not, try this additional steps:
    6. Power cycle your router (usually done by unplugging the router’s power cord, waiting 20 seconds, and plugging it back in).
    7. Make sure that the iOS devices and the printer are all connected to the same network, then try to print.

  • How prevent printing from ipad to officejet pro 8600

    How can i disable printing from my daughter's iPad to my OfficeJet Pro 8600?  She is developmentally delayed and doesn't realize what she's doing, but she just blew through a brand new 950XL cartridge printing two-sided solid black images.

    Hi,
    The simplest approach might be to turn the wireless functionality off on the printer when your daughter is using the iPad.
    When you need to print, switch it back on again. There should be an option on the printer panel to switch off wireless.

  • Single Vertical Line When Using ADF for Scan or Copy on HP Officejet Pro 8600

    HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium Printer (CN577A)
    OS: MS 7 64 bit
    When using the ADF for my CN577A HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium printer, I get a single vertical line on the document that is produced. This occurs when copying or scanning, both in black and white, and in color. If I scan or copy using the glass, I don't get the vertical line.
    I already tried the troubleshooting.  I unplugged the printer, left it without power for several minutes; that didn't correct the problem.  Next, I cleaned the rollers and the glass; I still get the vertical line, but only when using the ADF.
    My firmware version used is current (CLP1CN1150CR).
    What should I check next?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    The ADF uses its own glass area on the scanner bed, it is the narrow (about 1" wide) strip on the left.  Cleaning this area should resolve the issue.  A single small spot would cause the issue you are seeing.

  • How can I Print a 4X6 postcard on a hp officejet pro 8600

  • Hello ! how to change document sizes and use our own size (not A3, A2 ...) thank you !

    hello ! how to change document sizes and use our own size (not A3, A2 ...) thank you !

    Experiment. No harm in trying.
    If you are just starting to use Pages you need to make your own assessment given current events whether committing your work to a format and software given this support is a wise move.
    You also need to look at what will produce workable results. Particularly if your large posters are to be commercially printed and contain large bitmap (photographic) images.
    Always work backwards from your output. Ask your printer what they require to do their job.
