  • HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus - Magenta Not Printing

    I have an HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus (A910), Model number CM756A, Serial number: [Moderator edited Serial Number] that is not printing magenta. 
    Firmware version: LRP1FN1231AR. Service ID 21057. IK Number 658.
    Software version: 028.000.1315.000. Printer Driver version: 09.84.00.1189
    The Printhead Status for all cartridges reports as "Good" in the Self Test Diagnostic Page.
    I have run a Print Quality Diagnostics and in Test Pattern 2 there is no red/magenta colored block appearing.
    I did not have any alert for low print quantity, however I replaced the Magenta inkcartridge with an HP Officejet 940XL new magenta ink cartridge (HP genuine) and still there is no Magenta printing.
    When I open the ink cartridge holder, the printer shows HP Model: A910g, HP Ink Cartridge 940.
    I have gone through this exercise several times, however the latest Magenta ink cartridge that I removed from the printer prior to replacing had the following information on it:  C4908A, 2016/05/22.  The newest cartridge I put in has a September 2017 expiration date (part number C4908A). 
    I am not getting any error messages or anything, there is just no Magenta being printed.
    First - I would like to know how to fix this issue with the HP printer.
    Second - is there anyway to get a refund for the ink cartridges I have had to use (and waste) trying to resolve this problem.
    Thank you.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus will not print from my MacAir

    I have used my MacAir to print on my HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus for about 5 months without any problems.  All of a sudden my printer will not print.  The wireless icon says it's connected to the network.  But when I click print it says "looking for air printer" and then "printer not connected".  I've repeated the Wizard Set Up for the wireless connection.  I've turned the printer and computer on and off.  I've even tried printing from my iPhone but it will not find the printer anymore.  Please help!

    Hello @ladybonds ,
    Thank you for taking the time to post on the HP Forums today! Hope you enjoy the experience.
    You are saying that you have been printing fine from your computer for 5 months and now your printer says it is connected to the network and your computer says that it isn't.
    Have you recently upgraded to Yosemite the new Apple OS? If not what OS X are you using?
    Are you sure that the printer and your devices are on the same network?
    Does the router give your printer an I.P address?
    Let me know these answers and we can go from there.

  • Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print from my laptop

    I have an Officejet Pro 8500A Premium. I jus had ot reload my driver thinking it would resolve the below issue but it did not. The connection string is  laptop -> docking station -> ethernet to router -> ethernet to printer.  On my laptop I can see the ink levels of the printer so there is a connection but when I attempt to print and select the Officejet 8500 (non fax) printer, it attempts to print to the 8500A fax and then pops up with a fax box.  
    Additional Information:
    I have tried the following:
    - Changed the port for the 8500A fax
    - Tried to set the default printer from the fax to the network printer - received an error message: Operation could not be completed (error 0x0000709). Double check the printer name and make sure that the printer is connected to the network.
    This question was solved.

    Hello coolhandluke2,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having issues when attempting to print from your Laptop.
    I also see that you are getting an error 0x0000709.
    I do have a few suggestions we can try.
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    I am also going to give you a document that deals with a 'Problem with Printhead,' 'Printer Failure,' 'Ink System Failure,' or a '0x...' or a 'C2...' Error Me....
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
    Thanks for your time.

  • Officejet Pro 8600 Plus will not print but is connected and says that the print job is 100% Complete

    Hi All,
    I'm printing from a MacBook Pro using OSX Lion. It says that Officejet Pro 8600 Plus is connected and that the print jop is 
    100% complete except that nothing comes out of the printer. I've done all of the test prints and they've printed just fine.
    I tired all of the troubleshooting steps listed on the support guide and still nothing. HELP!

    Not a reply but another plea for help.
    There seem to be so many people with wireless problems that a) it seems silly to start a new thread and b) which one to enter my own plea.
    -Printer bought about 2~3 weeks into Sept 2012
    -Installed onto Macbook Pro running Lion (full updated at that time)
    -Both wireless scanning from printer to computer and initiated from computer worked fine.
    -Printer, with full choice of duplex, layout etc, worked fine. (Even left 5star feedback somewhere!)
    -Set up eprint. That OK, too. Fine from iPad2 and SE Arc S printing photos.
    -Somewhere along the line it stopped communicating with my MBP
    -Out of interest, since there seemed to be no problems with an Acer laptop running Vista, I booted the MBP from an external drive on which I'd done a backup of my 10.6 system iMac (>300Km away: can't try that). Installed HP software from disc. Seemed fully functional. Odd. Very odd.
    -Restarting with Lion on MBP, tried again. Looks as if it might work, but loses connectivity. Tried manual address on printer.
    -Booting from 10.6 system again, reinstalled Lion on MBP (wondering if conflict between HP and Apple updates)
    -Reinstalled HP software from disc.
    Still didn't work.
    -Brought Lion up to date. Downloaded most recent dmg file from HP. Looked for updates. Have applied firmware update to printer
    8600 doesn't list my MBP as available computer to scan to
    [But all the test pages done whilst in HP Utility, and others, get sent through]
    Am getting rather fed-up with all this; never, ever before have I had so much printer problem.
    There seem to be a number of Lion users out there with the same problem. So far -but very infrequently tried- other machines/systems seem OK, therefore I am coming to the conclusion that it is an Apple<> HP conflict. If not sorted soon the printer will be returned as it is not fit for purpose. I'll revert to using my seldom problematic, non duplex A3 Brother.
    Hrumph
    Please help, someone! Either with a pointer to something I've not yet tried or by analysis and rapid availablity of updated software.
    Thanks,
    Mike W

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus will not print

    My 2 month old printer will not print unless I open and close the print cartridge door. The printer screen says it is printing, but nothing happens. I have followed all of the steps on line, but nothing works. Anyone else have this problem?

    Does your printer display "Printing..." on the control panel, but never prints?
    I had such a problem. The only way I could get mine to print was to unplug the power cord and plug it back in.
    I found the problem was an "expired" ink cartridge.  I replaced the cartridge with a new one and the problem went away.  Check your ink cartridge statuses by using the Control Panel functions.  If you see one that is expired (my panel displays a yellow exclamation mark on that cartridge's icon), try replacing it and see if the problem goes away.
    My problem occurred whenever the printer went into "standby" mode.  I think when it wakes up it checks the cartridges and when the firmware finds an expired cartridge it locks up.  Just an educated guess.
    Good luck!  And if this helps, please click the Kudos button for me.

  • I have a hp officejet pro 8500a plus. can i print in all black when the other ink colors are out?

    i'd like to find out if there is a way i can still in black if i have one color cartridge empty

    This model has separate ink supplies and printheads.  Ink is required in all the colors to keep the printheads and plumbing from clogging.  See this page for information on how ink is used.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus- Does not print; requires power off/on to reset.

    I've spend a month trying to resolve this issue.  When printing wirelessly, documents hang in the queue and never print.  When the printer power is cycled off then on, documents will print wirelessly, but only for a temporary period of undetermined time.  The next time I use the computer the problem is repeated.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software several times.  Running the HP Print and Scan doctor indicates everything is fine.  It isn't.  Your expertise is appreciated.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print docs from computer, but will print a test page.

    HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print docs from computer, but will print a test page.  I continually get a message that the computer cannot communicate with the printer.   Not only will it not print docs, it will not print web pages using IE 11 or Google Chrome.
    I've used Print and Scan Doctor, it always reports there are no issues and prints a test page even though I can't print anything else. 
    Each time I want to print, I must reboot the computer.  After reboot I have one chance to print.   This problem started February 15, 2015.  
    My operating system is Windows 8.1.   I have unintalled the HP software, rebooted, then reinstalled the software:
    OJ8500_A910_1315-1.exe
    HP Print and Scan Doctor - HPPSdr.exe
    HPSupportSolutionsFramework-11.51.0049.msi
    All versions were last downloaded on April 4, 2015.
    I have a home wireless network (Ubee DDW366 router).  All other devices in the house will print to the 8500A printer without issues:  2 Toshiba laptops, 2 Android phones, and 1FireHD.
    The desk top is installed with a Netgear Network card I don't know the model, but I had it tested by a PC Tech to confirm that the card is working.   The card and Windows 8.1 were installed on January 3, 2015.
    I have run virus scans and malware scans.  Each time they show there are no issues with my desktop.  What kind of desktop? Specifically made to my specs from store parts. . . no brand name computer.  ASUS Motherboard P6X580 Premium.  Now I will probably get hacked!
    I am at my wits end.  And it is frustrating when I need to make a print of something and the system locks up.  I often resort to screen printing to a word document to save in order to reboot. . . .but then I lose all sorts of capabilites when I salvage what I needed.  Also this is a time consumer.
    This printer has served us well for two years and I have expensive cartridges waiting; another two rounds of refills.
    Help?
    Addendum:  I can scan using HP Printer Assistance.  I open the HP Printer assistant, it "retrieves" info from the printer, then I select "scan a document or photo" and the printer responds.   I have no trouble with scanning.

  • Why can't I print to my HP OfficeJet Pro 8500A Plus All-in-One from my wired PC?

    I have an HP OfficeJet Pro 8500A Plus All-in-One on my network.  My router is wireless, which several of my devices (laptops, ipads, etc.) use to get an internet connection, but I have one desktop PC that is actually wired to the router via ethernet cable.  For some reason, when I attempt to print to the 8500 from the wired PC, the doc just sits in the que, eventally registering as an 'error'. But all of my wirelss devices can print to it just fine.
    Oddly, this is somewhat of an intermittent issue, as I have printed successfully from this PC before, but I can't right now.  I'll also throw this in: I have at times, plugged an ethernet cable into my wireless-capable laptop and had the same issue.  But then I just unplug the calbe, reboot, and turn on wireless, and can print without any issues ... so I suspect it has something to do with the fact that the PC is wired to the router.
    Don't know if this has anytthing to do with it, but my wireless network is called 'FrogNet', but my wired PC doesn't see 'FrogNet' like all my wireless devices do.  It just indicates that this is part of a generic network.   Ideas?  (All computers run Win7.)

  • Mac os 10.6.8 & hp officejet pro 8500a plus (910g) stopped printing wirelessly​.

    hp officejet pro 8500a plus (910g) prints from mac os 10.6.8 with a usb, but stopped printing wirelessly
    HP Network Configuration Page states Network Status: ready and Active Connection Type: Wireless
    Wireless Network Test Report - looks A-O.K.
    Turned off modem, printer and laptop & restarted modem, printer, laptop computer
    Seems that the computer can't "find" the printer, maybe.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated!

    If you open System Preferences --> Print & Fax and click the "+" symbol at the bottom of the printer list on the side, you should get an "Add Printer" dialog window to pop open.  Is your printer visible in that window?
    If not, try printing a configuration report from the printer, to get the IP address your printer currently has.  If you type that number into your web browser of choice (Safari, Firefox, etc.), does the printer's "embedded web server" page load?
    If so, you could set up the printer on your Mac using the IP address in the "Add Printer" dialog. To do that, you select "IP" at the top of the window rather than "Default" (which is a discovery list), and paste the IP address into the "Address" field.  If the printer is available, it should pick the model automatically.

  • My HP OfficeJet Pro 8500a Plus won't print. Paused queue cannot resume. 'Doctor' fails to solve.

    As a Windows 7 Admin user I can print to the HP OfficeJet Pro 8500a Plus but other users cannot. Their prints go into the 'Print Queue' and neither Resume or Restart will work. Resume merely deletes it from the queue and Restart does nothing.
    Print and Scan Doctor doesn't resolve the problem. It refers to the 'stuck queue' and restarts the computer. Even then it does nothing to solve the problem.
    There appear to be many instances of this problem on searching the Internet, most suggesting highly complex solutions. Surely it shouldn't be that difficult to solve.

    It sounds like it could be a permissions user since the admin account has no issue printing to it.
    Are the other users printing from the same computer, but different accounts or are they printing to the networked printer from different computers?

  • Officejet Pro 8500A Plus can't scan to e-mail

    I have an Officejet Pro 8500A Plus and Windows 7 32-bit OS and using Outlook 2010.  I'm trying to scan to e-mail and am having no luck.  From the printer interface I choose SCAN --> COMPUTER --> (MyComputer) --> E-MAIL AS PDF.  It performs the scan, but then on my computer, I get the following error:
    "The HP Scan application is unable to open your e-mail application and/or cannot attach the scan to a new email.  Please check your email configuration and try again."
    I've checked the configuration in CONTROL PANEL --> DEFAULT PROGRAMS --> SET YOUR DEFAULT PROGRAMS.  I made sure that I selected Microsoft Outlook and clicked Choose Defaults For This Program.  I then selected all Extenstions and Protocols and still no luck.
    Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution?  Thanks.  You may be wondering why I don't just use the Scan to Email instead of scan to computer.  Well, unless there's a way to import all 400+ contacts from my Outlook to the address book in the scanner, this is the fastest way for me to scan an item and send it as an e-mail to various people.
    Thanks.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500A fax reports not printing

    I am working with an Officejet Pro 8500A Premium. It works great except for when I need to print fax confirmation sheets or receiving faxes - then I get a message that the printer is out of paper. I do not have problems printing from the computer, a copy or scan. Only the fax function seems to throw the machine off, specifically to the issue of feeding paper from the tray. Anyone have anything they can recommend here?

    Hi Conny,
    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I understand that the attachment to an email sent to your Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer’s ePrint email address did not print.
    After the PDF didn’t print, did you log into your HP Connected account?  I’m curious as to what HP Connected indicated about the print job. I have included the ePrint Job Did Not Print document.  It has several causes and solutions as to why the PDF didn’t print.
