HP officejet pro 8600 plus need to reset, but no screen access due to head error

hi,
I had some HP's 8600 but one of them it is dead as printer and it was replaced.
I need to use it only as scanner (no printing since its problem are the printing heads). The problem I cannot access to the menu through the screen since it is stock with the message mentioning the fail on printing head. The next option it is to watch a demo about heads.
Im trying to access in order to fix a new static ip for the scan.
Is there a way to reset so the printing gets an dhcp ip add? So far the scanner works fine through USB connection.
Thanks in advance

Hello @Rodrigo_cl,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One Printer has encountered a hardware Printhead failure and is not allowing you to scan using a static IP because of this. I would like to assist you today with resolving this issue.
Now, due to the error on the front panel of the printer, you will not be able to perform any resets on your machine. But, if your printer is currently on the network with an automatic IP we can utilize the embedded web server to configure a static IP.
Is your printer currently on your wireless or wired network?
Once I know if your printer is currently on the network, I can guide you towards configuring the static IP through the computer. I look forward to hearing from you!

  • Missing HP Utility (Officejet Pro 8600 Plus); need to reinstall - cannot uninstall printer software

    I had to wipe my iMac and resinstall IOS Mavericks (10.9.5).  Printer (Officejet Pro 8600 Plus, 9N11g) is working, but will no longer scan (double-clicking icon results in "original item cannot be found") and the HP utility icon on dock is missing, replaced with a "?."  I located directions to uninstall printer software so I can reinstall... but there is no longer any HP folder or "HP Uninstaller" on my Mac HD.  Neither is there an HP folder within Library/Printers folders.  Spotlight search shows no HP or Hewlett-Packard folders on my hard drive.
    I have downloaded an "HPPPrinterDrivers3.0.dmg" and "HP-Injket-SW-OSX-Mavericks_v12.34.37.dmg," one of which I'm hoping will contain updated software/drivers to reinstall the printer and hopefully the HP Utility so I can regain scanning function, but I cannot figure out how to remove the current printer software, and I do not know if those are the currect files to use.  I understand just deleting the printer will not suffice.  
    Can anyone provide step-by-step instructions on how to remove the software as well as installation (since I am unclear if I have the correct dmg files)?  Thank you.
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    First I would suggest repairing the disk permissions, then try reinstalling the HP Software.
    Follow the steps below to repair the disk permissions:
    1. Open the the Applications folder.
    2. Go to the Utilities folder.
    3. Double-click on Disk Utility.
    4. Select the hard drive containing the boot volume.
    5. Go to the First Aid tab and select Repair Disk Permissions.
    Note: This process may take several minutes depending on the Mac and amount of permissions that need to be repaired. The Progress Log will indicate when the process has been completed.
    Once you are done, run the HP-Injket-SW-OSX-Mavericks_v12.34.37.dmg file and follow the steps on screen, be sure to select the HP Scan option while installing to get full functionality of the software.
    Please try the steps above and let me know the results,

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus will print wirelessly but not scan

    I have a HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus all in one printer/copier/scanner. It's worked fine for the several months I have had it. But now suddently the computer does not recognize the scanner. I am connected to the device wirelessly and can print but not scan. I haven't been able to figure out why the comptuer recognizes the printer but not the scanner. I uninstalled and reinstalled the device but still no success.
    Any ideas how I can get the computer to recognize the scanner? I am running Windows 8. Have not updated to 8.1.

    Hello Sarah1234, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you are experiencing scanning issues.  I would like to help.
    I would recommend powering off your printer and computer.  Once they are both down, I would recommend unplugging the power from your wireless router for 60 seconds, and then plugging it back in.  Once it has begun broadcasting again, power on your printer and computer.
    I would also recommend downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor. Once you have launched the tool, select the 'fix scanning' option.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • 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

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus connected to network but cant print

    My OJ Pro 8600 was previously configured and working properly, but has stopped. I was able to print off of 3 computers and a phone. All have the same IP directed toward the printer and the printer has the IP as well. I have reset the network, reset the printers network settings and the set them back up, ensured the computers have the correct ip address for the printer as well. I have tried to print the from the computers with no luck. The printer does pull a proper IP .120 in a .0 network with default gateway matching all the computers which is pingable. Printer doesn't show in the arp table either. 
    The computers can't find the printer, neither can the phone and the same from printer to computer when attempting to scan to the computer. I have checked the WIA on all computers, restarted the service also.
    Also tried manually setting the IP on the printer and still no luck. My wireless range hasn't changed as I'm still within signal distance from the router with a strong signal.
    Tried Print and scan Doctor - no luck
    I'm at a total loss minus hooking a computer directly up to the printer at this point.
    I keep thinking 'PC load letter' and laugh as this must be something small i'm overlooking..
    HELP?  
    Problem solved - full reset on router and network settings on printer.

  • Officejet Pro 8600 Plus, N911g sends faxes, but won't receive

    Hello,
    My printer will send faxes, but not receive them.
    Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, SP1.  The printer is connected to the computer via wireless.  The phone is Comcast Digital Voice.  The printer is the only device connected to the phone line.  Per techs at Comcast, the phone line is functional.
    I ran a Fax Test via the printer, and all items read "PASS".
    I completed all the steps in the following link, "Cannot Send or Receive Faxes" found on the support forums, EXCEPT resetting the printer by unplugging the power cord while the printer is on.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02891758&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_us...
    As per the instructions,  I sent a fax to the HP Fax Test Service.  The outgoing fax appeared to connect properly and send, as I heard the dial tone and connection sounds, and I received a fax confirmation, result "OK", from the printer. However, the return fax never arrived.
    I also confirmed that the number set in the fax header in the Basic Fax Setup, is indeed my phone line number.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
    Thank you,
    Jason

    Hey Jason,
    I have ran into this situation quite a few times in my experiences with fax issues,  it very well could be the digital line itself. My last suggestions for you would be to try a power reset on the printer, and also try a filter on the fax line to see if that could help the line. If you are still having issues with sending faxes, give us a call to our technical support to see if there are any more options for you.
    Press the Power button to turn on the product.
    With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
    Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
    Wait at least 15 seconds.
    Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
    Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
    If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
    Here is an example of a filter:

  • WiFi Wireless Setup Wizard produces Blue Screen of Death on Officejet Pro 8600 Plus

    The wireless setup wizard on my Officejet Pro 8600 Plus is failing immediately after "scanning for networks". I get a blue screen of death with error message B8494B00, followed by "turn printer on and off" with flashing screen.
    I bought the printer about one month ago and it has worked perfectly so far. My Apple Time Capsule failed yesterday, so I bought a new one (latest model) and had to set up the wireless network again. When I tried to do so on the printer, I got the error for the first time. Nothing else had changed. Other devices are working with no problems on the new network. The computer is an Apple iMac running OS Mountain Lion. 
    I have tried turning the printer on and off, disconnecting the power and reconnecting, then turning it on again, but no result. I have restored the wireless to factory settings, but no difference. 
    Please help. 

    Right off I have to tell you I do not "speak Mac".
    I assume the "Apple Time Capsule" is a name for a network router?  A syncing device?
    Unless I am mistaken:
    You do not need the Wizard to set up the network -- it is pretty software for an HP PC; when it works, it can make things easier.  The setup Wizard is not necessary for the process.  I should think this is true for the Mac.
    ==================================================​===================================
    If you cannot get someone from the Printing group to answer your specific concern,
    you may have succes with the following:
    The User Guide has pretty good detail on how to set up the networking necessary to get the printer connected to either a PC or Mac environment.  Assuming you can get the printer to "Reset network settings" (User Guide, page 222), then you can re-enter the information you require manually.  It is a bit tedious, but is may work better than fighting the Wizard.
    OfficeJet Pro 8600 User Guide
    You may be able to circumvent sone or all of this by reinstalling the Full Feature Software for your printer -- that assumes you are first able to "reset network settings", at least, and get a printout test page to verify that the reset actually worked.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus (UK purchase) will not connect to wired ethernet network

    Hi
    We have an HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus (purchase here in UK approx 9-12 months ago) which has sort of worked OK wirelessly but finance industry compliance requirements now require me to connect to it by normal ethernet cable. 
    When I disable wireless and plug in a (tested and working) ethernet cable it does nothing.  I have done a factory reset (via the screen menu) to remove any previous settings.  Turned off, turned on, still nothing.
    I have restored Network defaults also using the menu command within settings - network; no difference.
    In Network - wired summary the screen says:
    IP: Not applicable
    MAC: xxxxxxxxxxx (not for sharing here)
    Hostname: xxxxxxxxx (not for sharing here)
    Wireless Direct: Off
    I have tried it with IP settings turned to Automatic (DHCP) - no joy.
    I have tried it with IP settings turned to Manual(Static) - when i then type in the static IP address that is within the router range (but outside the DHCP reserved range) as soon as I press Done, the settings are lost i.e. 192.168.0.102 - push 'Done' and the IP goes back to 000.000.000.000
    The same when entering the default gateway and subnet masks.
    I have restored to defaults several times, tried manual and DHCP several times, no joy.
    Please let me have some serious suggestions at the earliest opportunity.  Just to reiterate I have tested the network connection and cables with other ethernet equipment and they are working.  My questions include:
    1.   Anyone know how to make this printer actually store the manually entered IP addresses etc?
    2.  What am I missing about the wired setup?
    3.  Is this a known issue?  Is it an issue with the hardware ethernet socket or something?
    4.  Also in this forum there are references to a Hard Factory reset that is apparently different to the menu 'Reset to Factory Defaults' but links to an article about it just give a 404 error, not found.  [Does HP actually have two different levels of Factory Default and if so, God knows why!  Does anyone know a working link to this information please?

    Hello Qw8, welcome to the forums!
    I read your post about not being able to successfully install your Officejet 8600 Plus to your wired network. I will do my best to find suggestions for you to try. I would first like to know which Operating System you are installing the printer on to help me with my research.
    If you haven't already, run the installation (HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One Printer - N911g Drivers) with your security and firewalls disabled to see if the proper connection can be made.
    I do see you ask about other resets and there are others however, at this stage they may not be needed. If they are, I can send you a private message at that time with that information.
    Please let me know your OS and we will go from there!
    Have a wonderful weekend

  • Printing from Motorola Xoon tablet to Officejet Pro 8600 Plus via Android ePrint app

    Hello!
    My Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer
    - is connected to my Laptop (Win7 64bit) via USB cable
    - is connected to my router via WLAN
    - is configured to use ePrint with a registered mail address
    My Motorola Xoom tablet3
    - has Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4 installed as operating system
    - has the HP ePrint Home&Biz app installed
    ePrint
    - ePrint app is configured
    - the app identified/shows my printer as it should
    - I successfully registered to ePrint on the HP website
    - I am using a registered mail address for connection between app and ePrint online
    As soon as I select a document on my tablet and try to print it,
    - the app shows up a "rendering document" message for a short time
    - a preview of the document should show up, but it doesn't!!
    - I can see the selected document as "pending" print job
    - no documents will be printed
    - pending documents can't be deleted and remain in the tablet's display
    So, I desparately need help! Why does my printer not receive or print the documents from the Xoom tablet?
    Thanks a lot for your help!

    I understand that It was not a problem with the connection. When dealing with wireless networks, it is always a good idea to set a static IP.  It makes things more stable.  The reason I told you to enter Google's DNS was not to connect you to Google.  All a DNS does is create a pathway to the internet.  Once any device finds the internet via the DNS it then goes where it is supposed to.  It just uses the DNS as a referance for the internet.  Web services should work fine with your router DNS, I have just had more success using Google's public DNS.  
    You never mentioned wether you did all the power cycling that I asked you too.  I know it does not make sense, but power cycling everything on the network so it can all reconnect fresh, solves most issues like this one.  However, if you have power cycled everything and you are still having issues, then try removing the Xoom and the printer from the network, and reconnecting them.  Sometime, you have to completely remove the printer and mobile device from the networks and reattach them before they will comunicate.  
    If none of that works,  you may need to call the cloud services department to have them take a look at the issue.  You can find the number by logging into your ePrintCenter.com acount and looking under the help section.  When you get an agent on the phone make sure to tell them everything you have done, so they do not have you do the same steps.  Honestly at this point if it is not working the next step is a semi-full reset, which will cause you to loose your ePrint email address, as well as reset everything back to factory settings on the printer.  I am not allowed to share how to semi-full the printer via the forums, however the phone agents can walk you through one.

  • Hp officejet pro 8600 plus .. won't scan to e-mail

    HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One Printer - N911g; Windows 8
    Why am I now getting this error message when attempting to scan to email "Username or password is incorrect. Make sure both user account and password are valid." There were no changes in passwords so not sure what needs to be done to correct the issue. I am now also having problems with faxing.
    Please HELP

    Hi HelpMsP,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with the user name and password when attempting to scan to your email.
    I suggest Resettling the Network Defaults on the printer.  To do so, On the main display of the printer, please use the right arrow key and go to the Setup Menu.  Please scroll down to and select Network settings.  Please go to the last menu in the list and select Restore Network Defaults.
    This will reset the user name and password and you can then re-enter your information.
    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.

  • Officejet Pro 8600 Plus says ink is empty when it is not

    Each time I have to change one cartridge on the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus I check how full the other cartridges are.  Typically the yellow one is 75% full and the other colours about 50%. 
    So I buy and install one cartridge.  It doesn't matter if it is a black one or a colour one.  I replace it with a genuine HP cartridge.  That goes fine and comes up as now being full.  But immediatly after this it tells me the other cartridges need to be replaced too.   I go through all imaginable fixes (including a hard reset of course) but nothing changes - it still insists that the other cartridges are also empty.  Of course it now won't print (unless I want to print in black only). 
    This means that every time I have to replace one cartridge I end up replacing all four.  So now I have a stack of old cartridges that are at least half full but cannot be used  - what a waste of money!    How did HP design a printer like this?

    Hello,
    Understand that you  are facing with replacing cartridge even though they still have ink.
    Let me direct you this troubleshooting guide to clean the cartridge contact.

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus - Squeals while scanning

    My OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus squeals very loudly while it is automatically feeding paper through to scan the document to a PDF.  How do I stop the annoying squeals??  It does NOT squeal while it's printing ... so I'm assuming it has to do with the feeder tray and the rollers associated there ... maybe??

    Hey @DEP001, 
    Welcome to the HP Support Forum!  I understand your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One Printer's ADF has become quite noisy.  I would like to assist you with this and may have the steps you need to resolve that issue.  
    The first thing I suggest is to plug the printer into the wall outlet directly if it is currently in a power surge protector or extension cord. This may sound silly but this will ensure the printer is getting full power and may eliminate any unnecessary troubleshooting. If the printer is no longer getting full power from the power surge or extension cord it may give false errors, have poor connection, paper feed issues and quality issues.
    Secondly, I recommend you try the following: 
    Clean the ADF
    Rollers are used to feed paper into the scanner, while the separator pad prevents multiple pages from feeding at the same time. If the rollers or separator pad are dirty, the ADF might not feed the paper correctly. Follow these steps to clean the ADF mechanism.
    Open the ADF cover.
    Figure : Open the ADF cover (Officejet Pro 8600)
    Figure : Open the ADF cover (Officejet Pro 8600 Plus and Premium)
    Lightly dampen a clean, lint-free cloth with bottled or distilled water, and then squeeze any excess liquid from the cloth.
    Use the damp cloth to clean any residue or dust from the pick rollers and the separator pad.

    ADF cover
    Rollers
    Separator pad
    Firmly close the ADF cover.
    Try to print from the ADF again.

    Lastly, after you've cleaned the ADF, try a 'hard reset':
    Let me know if this helps alleviate the squealing sound when using the ADF.  
    Have a great day!

  • Troubleshoot scan to email officejet pro 8600 plus

    printer cannot connect to the server.  Name and address both verified by ISP.  any other suggestions?

    Hello kaybe123,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    It appears that you are unable to Scan to Email with the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus, getting server connection errors. I would like to offer a few suggestions that I hope will help you get this working.
    Check for updates on the printer, Getting the Latest Firmware and Product Updates.
    Power off the printer and ensure the power cord is connected to a wall out let.
    Next you want to power reset the router. If it has a power button press that, if not, remove the power cord. Wait 60 seconds and then allow it to power back up. Once router is fully on, power up the printer.
    Test the Scan to Email, if it works there is no need to continue. If it doesn't, try the next suggestion.
    Refer to this Thread answered by a colleague of mine happytohelp01 : Efax 7510 still won't work after turning off/on ePrint several times. Follow the steps to setup a Manual I.P and DNS for the printer over the network. The steps will be the same, if not very similar for your printer as the one in the above post.
    Try to Scan to Email once done. If still unable to Scan to Email, continue below.
    Go back to the above Thread, rather than using the DNS suggested try this set; Primary DNS Server : 209.244.0.3 & Secondary DNS Server : 209.244.0.4.
    Try to Scan to Email, if the feature is still not working you will need to call HP's Cloud Support team. If you live in the USA/Canada, 1-855-785-2777. If you live outside the USA/Canada, click HERE to find the Technical Support number for your country/region.
    Best of luck.

  • Macbook Pro running Maverick doesn't recognize Officejet Pro 8600 Plus as a scanner

    I am a new user to the Macbook, transitioning from Windows. I started with a preexisting Offciejet Pro 8500 but couldn't get it to work and discovered there were no Maverick drivers. I then bought and  installed the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus wirelessly. I downloaded the HP software package for Mac. I can print. I can scan from the printer to the computer. I can use the HP Scan utility (although the HP apps folder also contains the 8500 apps and I'm not sure which is which). However, under System Preferences Printers and Scanners it only lists the 8600 as a printer and faxer; it does not appear under Scanner. And I cannot access it using PDF Converter for Mac, either.  And it refuses to scan an entire legal page, stopping at the letter page limits, whether I use the document feeder or just place it on the glass.
    ( I also cannot figure out how to set up Network scanning - it asks for a folder address and I am not familiar with iOS nomenclature.)

    Hi lahrm
    I understand  you are having issues scanning on the Maverick.
    I will be happy to assist you with this.
    I have included a document for how to scan on the Maverick.
    I have provided a document for connection issues.
    This document provides directions for scanning to a network folder.
    If you need more assistance just let me know.
