I have an HP Office Jet Pro 8500 A 917 unit. I need to print *pdf documents with larger print

I cannot read the print (normal) when I print a pdf document.  I need to enlarge the text but I can't find any information on how to accomplish this.
Thanks in advance.

Hello DJohnsen,
I am sorry that you are having trouble printing a readable .pdf document!  I would like to know a couple of things.  Is this a general .pdf print from a local PC/External Hard Drive, web content or is this an ePrint attachment?  There are a couple of different factors that could be effecting the outcome of this print job.  To name a few: resolution of the document, how the .pdf was created (format) and print settings.  I would like to give more insight; please post with more details about the print job.  Thanks! 
If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • HP Office Jet Pro 8500 Wireless carriage jam message.

    I have an HP Office Jet Pro 8500 Wireless.  It is on a home wireless network and I am using a new HP laptop with Windows 7 (64-bit).  I am getting a carriage jam message that I cannot get removed.  Leading up to this, my son did have a paper jam and probably didn't get all the paper removed the first time around.  But I have checked thoroughly with a flashlight and there is now no paper anywhere in the carriage.  I have followed the video online and still have the same message and I can tell that the carriage is not moving side to side.  It stays over on the right side.   When the video talks about manually moving the carriage, I can move it very easily manually after I wiggle it a little and move it to the right a little.  Then it will move back and forth easily by hand.  I have tried to see if something is blocking it, but can see nothing.  But then when I try to print a test page, no luck.  I have reset it according to the video with no results.  I cannot print a test page from the touchscreen or from my computer.
    I really like this printer and hope you can help me.

    I hope you are doing well and sorry lt learn that you are having this issue.

  • HT6114 HP Office Jet Pro 8500 Scanner no longer works with Mavericks upgrade

    I have an all-in-one printer/copier/fax/scanner, HP Office Jet Pro 8500.  The scanner no longer works with the Mavericks upgrade.  Is it possible to get the scanner back in use?  The printer and fax is fine, but I really use the scanner a lot.  Please helap me.

    The following link to the HP Support site indicates that scanning is still supported for the OfficeJet Pro 8500 using Mavericks but also indicates that "you may need to scan in a different way than you did before you installed Mavericks."

  • Two office jet pro 8500 printers set up to operate wirelessly from one computer

    I have two office jet pro 8500 Wireless printers in my real estate office. I would like for them to both operate wirelessly from one computer, but can't get it to work.  I do not have any firewalls enabled. I can get only one to work.

    Do you have a network (wireless router) in your office that you are trying to connect the printers to or are you connecting directly to each printer via its "hpsetup" network?

  • Ipad mini printing to Hp office jet pro 8500 wireless

    Any suggestions re printing from Ipad mini using HP office jet pro 8500 wireless which supposedely is Airprint compatible?Downloaded HP's Eprint but it was not able to ID printer. Thank you.

    If its AirPrint compatible you should not need an additional App. The App is onyl foir their wireless Printers which aren't Air Print compatible.
    Make sure the printer is connected to the same Wifi network as the iPad. Then tap on the "Send To" icon in any App that you wish to print. Then tap on the Print option. 
    From there it should Appear as a selectable Printer in the Printers button

  • I have a office jet pro 8500 A909 a printer. Will it print wireless? windows 7 & 8

    can it be modified to print wireless if it won't do it now

    Hi,
    The HP Officejet Pro 8500 (A909a) can only be connected using USB or wired Etehrnet, the printer itself cannot be connected wirelessly.
    By connecting it using a network Ethernet cable you may install the printer on any PC connected to the same network, either Wirelessly or Wired..
    For Windows 8 download and use the doftware below:

    Hi,
    Please try this test: In Excel setup print area and print again. If the printer prints the right area that means something in Excel. Some Excel cells may contain something and Excel sends all to printer.

  • Office jet pro 8500

    Does the Officejet pro 8500 use ink during the self check that is performed when the printer is turned on? I normally turn the prtinter off when not in use, but it seems like the ink cartridges empty quickly, and I was wondering if I would be better off leaving the printer on at all times.

    Yes, some ink is used in initialization to keep the nozzles clear.  I leave my Officejet 8600 on all the time, it (like your Officejet 8500) automatically goes into a low power state in standby.
    If you do turn off the printer make sure it is always connected to a live outlet.  If an outlet switch or power director is used to interrupt power to the printer more ink will be used at startup.  The document here described ink usage in printers.  The Officejet 8500 is an IIC printer in the vocabulary of that document.
