I have a hp officejet pro 8500a premium printer,

I changed the ink cartridges that it ask for and it still says that they are empty. i cleaned it with alochol and turn it off for 10 min. also all night and it still says they are empty. please help. Thanks

Hi bobo230,
Are the new cartridges genuine HP cartridges or refilled/remanufactured cartridges?
If you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.

I have an HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium e-All-in-One Printer - A910n. I’m trying to set up HP Connect, but every time I create and account it tell me to log in using my Snapfish password. When I use my “valid” Snapfish password, it comes back asking "invalid password". How do I correct this?
If I'm not on the correct board, please let me know which one I should use.
Thanks

Hi. You are on the proper board! Unfortunately to fix the account mis-match issue you are having you will need to share personal information. To protect your identify and the security of your account I will private message you with what HP will need in order to get your Snapfish/HP Connected accounts synced up so you can use the web services!

Error message C00E0060 on my officejet Pro 8500A Premium printer

HI, Error code C00E0060 appears on discplay screen brieflky then change to blank display with the icon lights blinking. Powering on and off the printer won't do anything. Can't figure out any solution. I'm not able to use of the printer functions. I'd appreciate any solution you can share me. Thanks

Welcome , I saw your post regarding the problems you are having with your Officejet Pro 8500A premium getting an Error code C00E0060, and I found some information about it.
The error you are describing could be an issue with an ink cartridge or with the printer. To narrow down and determine which is having trouble can you try the following an let me know the results;Remove all of the ink cartridges, does the message change to 'Replace the (K) (C) (M) (Y) Ink Cartridge'?Put only the black ink in, does the message change to'Replace the (C) (M) (Y) Ink Cartridge'?Remove the black and put only one colour ink in, does the message change to reflect the change?Remove the colour, and test each one individually.
When you have the ink cartridges removed, you might want to try a hard reset. To do so, leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the back of the printer. While it is unplugged, you can hold down the power button on the printer for about 10-15 seconds to release any built up power. Then plug the printer back in and see if the error goes away. If the error message doesn't change when you do any of the above steps, it would mean that it is a fatal error with hardware, as mentioned in this similar post; Error Code C00E0060. Is the printer connected directly to a wall outlet or is it in a surge protector or a power bar? We want to connect it to a wall outlet just so we can eliminate the power source as the root cause. See this document for more information about Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector (Note: This document is not limited to Laserjet printers.) Please let me know if these steps resolved your issue, or if there is anything else I can do to help. I look forward to hearing from you! Thanks,

I am getting a jammed paper alert and there is no paper jammed. I have followed the instruction on the help video, but printer keeps posting a jammed paper notice. I have unplugged the machine and that hasn't worked. I cannot run a test page because of the jammed paper alert.

Try using this: HP Hardware Dianostic Utility see if this help identify the issue.

Will my OfficeJet Pro 8500A premium print "boarder less" 4x6 photos?

No matter what photo software I use, I can only print 4x6 photos with a boarder. Is there a setting on the printer I can change?

HP Officejet pro 8500A premium, all-in-one printer, scanner problems

I have an HP Officejet pro 8500A premium, all-in-one printer.
Tried uninstalling using the HP supplied uninstall software and installed recommended OSX 10.8 software for this device.
I use wireless scanning. Scanner only scans the first page then shows an error.
Anyone have this problem as well and any possible solutions?
Thanks

The HP Scan works just fine in Mountain Lion for me. Always has.
OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909a
I think the original poster needs to reinstall the latest software for the printer that came with his printer or directly from HP. Then, install the Apple HP updates.
When he unistalled the HP software, it may have removed the software needed for HP Scan to work properly.
The last software I installed from HP was -> HP_Installer_Officejet_Full_Group05_10.3.dmg
Yes, there have been Apple HP updates, but they never stopped my HP Scan from working.

Auto switch from tray 1 for envelopes to tray 2 for letters on HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium

Hi I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium e-All-in-One Printer - A910n My Operating System is XP Media Center. I haven't been able to get it to switch from one tray to the other automatically. Also it only remembers 1 type of paper at a time. I can't get it to show in Properties, Paper available, more than one type of paper. I open device settings, Form To Tray Assignment, Printer Auto Select :Letter. Tray 1 : Letter Tray 2 : Letter. Now I change Tray 1 : to Envelope #10 click apply, click ok, it closes out. I open the Properties back up & Tray 1 : is back to letter. Is there a way to get the printer to remember the it is set up with 2 Trays with 2 different types of paper ? I think the problem lies with the Printer Auto Select : But I am not sure. I would like to be able to print an address on an envelope when working in works. Without having to manually change the Tray settings. Does any one Know How to set this up ? Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this issue.

Hi MrHope,
Make sure that the printer is set to have tray 2 as the default tray, and then try setting the paper types for each tray in the printer settings.

Need MICR compatible ink cartridge for Officejet Pro 8500A Premium to print checks.

I need to print bank accepted checks on my Officejet Pro 8500A Premium printer using MICR ink. I cannot find a compatible MICR cartridge for this printer. There are MICR cartridges available for other HP printers. Does anyone know of a compatible cartridge?

Try using the multilevel uninstaller in the HP software driver CD. Browse the contents of the CD and look for the "Util" folder and open it. In the "Util" folder, open the "CCC" folder. In the "CCC" folder, double click on the "Uninstall_L3.bat" file. Don't use the "Uninstall_L4.bat" file. It could remove files that have shared dependencies with the HP software. Restart the computer and then reinstall the software afterwards. Let me know if it worked or not.

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.

HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium scans PDFs at legal size but I want letter size

Hi, I have an iMac with OS 10.7.5 and my Officejet Pro 8500A Premium makes scans to computer that are legal size, even tho the original is letter sized. I can't see how to change this in HP Utility. I don't have HP scanning software because I was unable to install it. My doc feeder doesn't work either. Any ideas? Thank you.

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.

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.

How do I print panoramic photos on an HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus printer?

How do I print panoramic photos on an HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus printer?

Thank you for this link! Actually I installed a brand new Windows 8 system in January 2014 and then bought the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer a few days later. To install this printer I did not use the CD that came with it but already used this link. Just to be sure that I have the latest version I again reinstalled the driver. The result is definitive: You cannot print common photo paper sizes like 4x6, 5x7, 8x10, etc. via a PC using photo SW like HP Photo Creations, MS Gallery, Windows Photo Viewer or any other SW on a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus. The reason is most likely that HP marketing decided that an Officejet should not be smart enough for photos, after all the company sells also Photosmarts. Because you cannot create your own formats you are limited by the driver to what is typically available in an office, in this case: A4, Letter, legal, Statement, Executive, A4, A5, A6, B54 (JIS), Envelopes #10-DL-C5-C6-A2-Monarch, Japanese Postcard, Japanese Envelope Chou #3-#4, L, 2L, O**bleep**u hagaki, Index Card Letter-A4, Edge-to-Edge Letter-A4, Env. Japanese No 3-No 4 and that's it, not more. Thank you anyway for trying to help me but in this case only the SW developers in HP can help.It would be great to be able to print from time to time a 4x6 photo on this printer like I would do.Copying photos on a USB stick or on a SD card first and then use this way to print on the printer is too cumbersome for me.

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.
