8500A PLUS - Scan to Email - to another 8500A Plus email address will it print with no PC?

Wanted to know if anyone has tried using two HP Officejet Pro  8500A Plus  SCAN to EMAIL feature without the use of a PC. Anything to look out for before spending the money on two of these units? Basically i want to set one up at my office the other at my home and use them without a pc using dsl internet to send  and receive scans .

If you have 2 8500a with the scan to email option you will need a pc to set up your scan to email and once that is done you could register those 2 printers and enable eprint and using that address you could scan an item from one and email it to the other and it will work using eprint.  I hope this helps

  • When emails arrive they arrive as email addresses and not names

    When emails arrive they arrive as email addresses and not names from my contact list.
    What gives?
    Thanks

    ok well I think I can confirm your theory by the fact that the few names that do show up are from PCs (where people's names are always entered in).
    Generally, most people enter their name in the Name field for their email account settings with the email client used on their computer, but not always. This is entirely up to the sender and is not required.
    90% of everyone else on my contact list is using mobile phones where names are not used like they are on PCs or smart phones.
    The very same applies to the email client used on a cell phone. I can remove my first and last name from the Name field for my email account settings, or I can enter Allan or ALLAN only and if I use ALL CAPS for my first name or for my first and last name, the name I've entered in the Name field will appear in ALL CAPS when the email is received. If I remove my name from the name field, my email address will appear only with all sent messages.
    This must mean that you too must have a lot of no name emails coming in right?
    Nope, because the overwhelming majority of people that send me email have their name entered in the Name field for their email account settings with the email client used on their computer for accessing the account and with the email client on their smart phone.

  • HP 8500A saves scans as v1.3 PDF. I need version 1.4 or above.

    The scanner on an HP 8500A, product number CM755A, scans and saves as a PDF to a network drive.
    It works well, but in the properties of the saved PDF show it is Version 1.3
    We need to e-mail the scanned image to customers including some who can only read PDFs version 1.4 or above
    We have a workaround of printing the saved PDF using CutePDF or similar, which saves the new PDF as version 1.4
    This can then be emailed to our customers who can read it, no problem.
    But as this is a hassle, and we do not know which customers might be affected, I need to update the scanner to save as a v1.4+ PDF. I tried updating the firmware, but it tells me that it is already up-to-date.
    Is there any way to fix this?
    Thanks for your help.
    Andrew

    I have the latest Adobe reader
    Adobe Reader cannot create a PDF (even from a scan).
    Acrobat (Standard or Pro) is required for that.
    Even with Acrobat the actual "scan" and image output is a process that is exclusive to the scanner and its software.
    The scanner/scanner software image output file is handed off to Acrobat for conversion to PDF.
    Not having Acrobat means that the PDF created is coming from software bundled with the scanner/scanner software.
    That a version 1.3 (Acrobat 4) PDF is created indicates the bundled stuff is, well... "old" .
    By design Acrobat creates/saves a PDF to a PDF version that is "one back".
    Acrobat Pro has the ability to process a given PDF to be compatible with different PDF versions.
    (e.g., the Optimizer facility or Preflights)
    If it is important that you have a PDF created to a newer version you may want to consider obtaining Acrobat or updating whatever was bundled with your scanner.
    Be well...

  • My Hp 8500a plus printer keeps saying it is offline and will not print. Was printing now stopped.

    I have an HP 8500a plus printer. Lately, when I go to print from Macbook or iPad, it tells me the printer is offline. My printer says it is connected to my wifi but will not print. Printer firmware is up to date. I have changed nothing, and now it will not print. Very frustrated and tired of spending all of this time trying to fix the printer just to print. This is my second HP printer this month and it works sometimes and doesn't work sometimes. 
    Am I missing something? I don't understand how it can print one day and not the next. 

    Try this if it is an Airprint Printer.
    1. Turn the router, iPad and printer off
    2. Turn on the router and then wait 30 seconds
    3. Turn on printer and then wait 30 seconds
    4. Turn on your iPad and test print.

  • Office Jet Pro 8600 Plus Scan to Email Setup, website not working.

    When setting up scan to email. 
    The first question is: Is the HP software provided with the printer installed on the network-connected computer?
    The answer should be yes, but we can't follow the steps of opening up the software on the computer and acessing scanner options like the printer tells us to. 
    Anyway, in the past I have set up a two users by selecting "No" to this question then it provies me with a website to enter in:
    http://192.168.5.158
    This is the current address it is giving me. This has worked for me in the past and have had no issues setting it up this way. But now (after my employer changed my email address) my scan to email is no longer working and I am trying to set it up again with my new email. 
    Every time I type in the given address: http//192.168.5.158 I receive an error message. 
    [Fiddler] The socket connection to 192.168.5.158 failed.
    ErrorCode: 10060.
    A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 192.168.5.158:80
    I had found a forum that had supposedly been a solution where they said to remove web services on the printer and re-set it up, this did not work at all. Still can't set up a scan to email. I just want to use the site given like I normally do, and set it up that way, I need help as SOON as possible please

    Hello rachelhuver,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    Regarding the issue connecting to the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus's Embedded Web Server to change the Email used for Scan to Email, I would like to see if I can help.
    If you touch the Wireless icon on the printer, is the I.P address the same as you noted in your post? If not, use that I.P in an attempt to access the needed page.
    If you are still unable to load the page, try using a different web browser on the computer. For example, if using IE, try Firefox.
    If you are still unable, it would appear to me that the network is blocking this page from you. You can get around this by connecting temporarily to the printers Wireless Direct network. To connect to this;
    Touch Setup
    Network
    Wireless Direct
    On with no security (I suggest)
    Connect the computer to the printer's network, ie HP-Print-**-Officejet 8600 series.
    Open a web browser (don't worry if you get a message about no Internet), enter this I.P: 192.168.223.1 and hit Enter.
    You should now be able to access the Embedded Web Server of the printer, make your changes and apply them.
    Hope this helps,

  • Where can I find my proxy address and the printer code on the HP officejet 8500A Plus

    where can I find my proxy address and the printer code on the HP officejet 8500A Plus

    Hi TanaS,
    I understand that you're trying to setup ePrint.  Most users when setting up ePrint do not require entering a proxy address. 
    Are you having trouble setting up ePrint?
    Are you getting an error message when you try to setup ePrint?

  • 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.
    This question was solved.

  • Issues with subject line when moving emails to another folder

    Hi.
    For the past few months I've been having a problem moving groups of emails from my inbox to another created folder. When I move a group of emails to another folder the subject of all the emails swap with each other. The issue seems to be with the iPhone native mail app only as when I connect via iPad or web the emails are correct.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Not that I'm aware of.
    Mail.app isn't a particularly scalable database in general, so you might want to look at your workflow. 
    For better or worse, email is often ill-suited as a general information-storage and transfer mechanism.
    You might be able to set up a Rule to perform the move when the message arrives; if the mail messages involved are uniquely identifiable.
    It's also possible to implement server-side rules, depending on what you're up to, and what your own mail server or particular your mail provider supports here.
    I'm using a combination of these two approaches locally.
    Or swap out for a different mail client or a mail-handling package; a package or a tool that's better suited for the scale that you're apparently working at, and the requirements you have.

    I am trying to change my Apple ID. Try to do this I keep getting an error message saying ‘This email address is designated as your rescue email address and cannot be used as your Apple ID or Primary email address. Please choose another.’ The email address that I want to use did use to be my recovery email but I have changed it, so that address is no lonegr associated with my account. I do not understand why I cannot use it as my Apple ID now.  Can anyone help?

  • Pictures previously included as part of an email are no longer there. If I forward the email to another web browser the picture is there. This just started happening after my last upade and I do not know why.

    For some reason pictures that have been included in emails as part of the email are no longer there. This seems to have happened after my last update of firefox. If I forward the email to another web browser on my computer the picture is then visible as part of the email. The pictures I am talking about are not ones attached for me to open but ones that are included as part of the email.

    In Mail Preferences/Accounts/each GMail account, set up the SMTP Outgoing Server for each account separately, going into SMTP name/edit/Advanced and specify the Username of each account.  The Outgoing servers must be two different servers, authenticated by the Username and Password of each.
    Otherwise, the GMail SMTP server will change the from address to that of the account where the SMTP server was setup.

  • Yahoo account tied to iCloud account is not receiving pushed emails but another Yahoo account does

    3 days ago, I signed up for an email account through my previously established iCloud account which is tied to my Yahoo email address. Since then, I have not been receiving any Yahoo push notifications as I used to. This problem seems to be tied directly to the fact to my signing up for an iCloud email account. I say this because I set up another dummy Yahoo email account on my phone for testing purposes and it is receiving the Push Notifications without any problem.
    Here are all of the steps I've taken so far without any sucess:
    Removed my Yahoo account from my phone and restarted the phone and then re-added the Yahoo acount
    Reset my network settings
    Changed my Apple ID (and iCloud account) to another email address besides my Yahoo account
    Reset the phone and restored from a backup
    Tried installing the 3rd party Yahoo app
    Turned push notifications to off and set to manual, reset the phone and then turned it back to Push
    Deleted all email accounts on my phone (iCloud, Gmail, Comcast, Yahoo) and restarted the phone and then added them back again
    Removed the troublesome Yahoo account from my Macbook Pro and my iPad and restarted them and then re-added the account
    None of those steps have seemed to help fix the issue. Also, it should be noted that my iCloud email address also has no problem receiving push notifications, only my original Yahoo email account seems to be having the problem.
    I don't believe this is a hardware issue since I can receive push notifications on a different Yahoo email account. Not sure what steps I should take at this point.

    Hi,
    Automatic Two-Sided printing is not currently supported by the ePrint Service, as you may find any of the service capabilities and limitations listed below:
    Duplexing (printing on both sides of the page) is not supported.

  • My new Officejet Pro 8500a on a Windows XP machine will not print from the Internet.

    I just purchased and installed an Officejet Pro 8500a all-in-one and everything seems to work fine except that the maachine will not print from the internet.  I use Windows XP home and and the Firefox browser.  The printer is connected directly to the computer, and is not directly connected to the Internet or any other network.

    The Officejet 8500 printers take individual ink cartridges (IIC); that machine requires that all cartridges be installed to ensure that the printhead does not get damaged. Ink is used in the printer not just for printing, but maintain the printer and the printhead. One can reduce the amount of color ink the printer uses by changing the printer settings to Grayscale or use black ink only. Page 34 of the user manual shows how one can change those settings when printing documents. For further information on how ink is used in the printer; one can look as this page here where it goes into detail on the different ways that ink is used in the printer.
    I would just replace the color cartridge that the printer indicates needs replacing when the machine alerts you to low ink. I would not replace all colors at once when only one is in need of replacing.  
    I hope that this helps.
