Blue screen of death error on HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless - HELP

Hi all
I have a officejet pro 8500, used (rarely) in a home office environment, probably done no more than 1000 pages total. Turned it on today to print something, powers up ok with no errors, sounds normal, but when sending something to print I get a very odd error - the LCD display goes blue and displays a white power button symbol (in very low resolution) with the error code B8711D7C below it. This is on the screen for a couple of seconds before a white screen with "Turn power off then on again" message. So I hit the power button to turn off (which it does) but restarts automatically. After rebooting it comes up with the "improper shutdown" message and it's back to the main screen. This happens every time a print is sent. However, copying works. I guess the next thing to do is to hook another pc up to the printer or remove/re-install drivers, but I'd really like to know what this error code is...any suggestions?
Many thanks

I have same printer and have the same error code b8711d7c. I almost exactly the same, I hardly use the the printer, less than once a week. Did you manage to solve this ?

  • Officejet pro 8500 wireless w/ blue screen B8808C14, B8614C64, B8806060 or B8806238 error message

    Hi -My printer, HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless Printer A909g connected via USB, was on when our lights flickered. It is plugged into a surge protector.  However, there has been one of four error messages on the touch screen whenever the printer power is on.  B8808C14, B8614C64, B8806060, or B8806238 have come up on a blue screen just after I turn it on to warm up.  No buttons respond on the printer.  Nothing prints.  The computer is running Windows Vista 64 bit and it says the printer is offline.  HP Solution Center on the computer says the printer is disconnected when it is still connected.  If you hit the on/off button the printer turns off for a moment then comes back on to one of the four error code messages listed above.  I have disconnected the printer completely, moved it, and plugged it into a power source in the kitchen and the same error message comes up and no buttons respond.  We've had the printer 18 months with no problems. 

    Hey Ceres, real quick question for you:
    Has this printer ever been set up on a network either wirelessly or wired to your router? I ask because this type of error message (Bxxxxxxx) applies most to printers which are having issues connecting to your network.

  • Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-In-One Windows 8 driver not working

    Hello!
    I recently got a new Dell Inspiron computer running the 64-bit version of Windows 8, and I have an Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-In-One Printer from a long time ago. I don't have the disc version of the driver, since I purchased the printer before Windows 8 came out, so I tried to download it from the HP website. Whenever I try to run it, however, it says that it is extracting, but once the extract is finished, nothing happens. The Installation Wizard doesn't pop up, and there is no error message explaing it. Help please?
    Thanks!
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Can I check if your Officejet Pro 8500 is A909 or A910?  Alternatively, you can install the class driver built into Windows 8 to print to your printer.  There are also a couple of Windows Store apps (HP AiO Remote and HP Scan and Capture) that would work with your printer.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless all-in-one printer

    Just bought second-hand HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless all-in-one printer.  Have no clue how to get it working.  I plugged it in and it seems to be operational, but when trying to print, it did not work.  Have an HP Pavilion laptop with Windows 8.1.  Can anyone help me?

    Hi @trudi39 , and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I can see from your post you are experiencing print issues.  I would like to help!
    Do you receive any errors?
    Does it print a blank page, or nothing at all?
    Are you connected via wireless, ethernet or a USB cable?
    In the meantime, I would recommend downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Have an HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless. Trying to print to it from my iPad2. Having some problems.

    I Have an HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless. Trying to print to it from my iPad2. Having some problems. Trying to print docs or files from the iPad usuall gets me a page that looks scrunched up to one side. Is there a good printer app (preferably free or shareware) that I could get or is there a patch, new driver, new firmware or something for the 8500 that would allow good printing fro the iPad wirelessly?

    The latest firmware version for your printer is DLM1FN1006BR; you can verify yours by printing out a self test page via the front panel of your printer. 
    Also, the HP ePrint Home & Biz app supports printing over your local wireless network, so please verify if your printer is connected to the same access point as your iPad2.  You are also able to verify connectivity by typing your printer's ip address within the address bar of your safari web browser.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless (Vista x64) Will not print after Sleep Mode

    Hello,
    As the title says the printer does not print after coming back from sleep mode. Before entering sleep mode the printer works fine and is responsive. After coming back from sleep mode the printer is still responsive (buttons on the touch screen can be pressed) but unfortunately does not accept any print jobs. Currently, I restart the printer to get it to print. It is connected wirelessly through WRT610N Linksys Router. Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
    -Artem Durytskyy

    I have been having the same problem all during my warranty period. But no one ever told me it was a firmware problem until two days ago connected to the sleep mode for the wireless one. Supposedly, they have downloads for wire ones now online which I found for 909a and 909b, but not 909g which is wireless. Now I am out of warranty and they won't replace it. I have a long history with tech support since early 2010. Right now, they are sending me a power adapter to try, said to turn off sleep mode (which I dont' know how). Then I told them I found online a firmware download, Apr 2010 to update firmware. My current version is different that the one listed for the download. So, I'm going back to TS to have them fool with it. Has anything worked for you?

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 wireless (A909g): no more sharing of card slot?

    Hi there,
    Before:
    - in the past (OSX 10.6) my HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless (model A909g) supported "direct scan to folder" using a SMB folder shared on the Mac and working OK
    - after 10.7 (or 10.8) Apple changed SMB support disallowing plaintext passwords and that feature was KO
    - I was using a workaround: scanning to a SD card inserted in the HP printer and then copying the content from the SD card seen as a shared folder on the network
    Now:
    - Just after having installed Mavericks the shared folder on the printer are not available anymore, I am getting the device in the SHARED sidebar as usual but when I try to connect (using whatever password I might remember) I get an ACCESS FAILED message. (see screenshot, in Italian)
    Any help? This printer is losing features for every update

    More info:
    - On my other OSX 10.8 system everything is still alright:
    - If I try to connect (CMD-K) from OSX 10.9 to the same IP I'm getting an error saying "There is no partition available or you're not authorized to access this server (...)"
    - On the Mavericks console I'm getting this message while trying to access:
    kernel[0]: smb_smb_ssnsetup: HP0024812CE1E3 doesn't support extended security, this server will be deprecated in the future!
    ...seems the future has arrived ?!?

  • Installing OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless on Windows 7 laptop with no network

    Just purchased the OJPro 8500 Wireless and am trying to install on a new laptop with Windows 7 installed. First the CD that came with the printer didn't like Windows 7, so I downloaded the latest drivers from HP and things started happening... but no cigar.
    I'm trying to connect the printer to a laptop using wireless<-->printer, there is no wireless network involved. The equipment is as follows:
    - 3-IN-ONE HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 wireless
    - Laptop MSI CX600 series with wireless/bluetooth
    I would really appreciate any info on how to accomplish this.
    Thanks.

    1st, thx for clue about ad hoc (wireless) NETWORK (on pg. 10 & 11) in hp OFFICEJET "Wireless Getting Started Guide".
    Windows 7 HELP & HP Solution Center were both pretty useless.
    (Specifically)
    Type "ad hoc" in Search Programs & Files (under START icon).
    Results will be; "Set up an ad hoc (computer-to-computer) network". (Click on this)
    Results will be; Dialog box to give name to network & set security, then SAVE.
           NOTE: My Officejet Pro 8500n recognized "Security Type" = "No Authentication (Open)" & "Encryption Type" = "None"
    (Go to)
    Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Connect to a network
    Results will be; (in Dialog box for "Open Network and Sharing Center") a listing of your ad hoc network name & message (in bold) "Waiting for users"
    Finally, on Officejet Pro touch screen, Select "Setup Menu", "Network", "Wireless Setup Wizard",  [Name] (given to ad hoc Network in Windows 7), & OK.
    (Opps, 1 more thing) Also, follow instructions on pg. 10, to "Change from a USB connection".

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless - will not print green

    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless that will not print Green.
    I have:
    1.  Cleaned Printhead using device cleaning command.  All steps
    2.  Alligned Printer - get message 'Alignment failed.  Refer to device documentation for details.'  I see know documentation
    3.  Calibrate Linefeed
    4.  Unplugged device while it was on and then replugged restarted.
    5.  Unplugged device while it was on and cleaned magenta/cyan printhead (following instructions from your website explictly).
    The Alignment failed message persists and it still will not print green.  I have done some of the above multiple times.
    I hope you can help quickly.  I have a home office and this is putting me behind a lot!
    If I need a new printhead, get one and it does not fix the problem, can I return it?  How can I get a printhead quickly?
    THanks! Kathy

    Hi KathyGates,
    Please let me take a moment to say "Welcome" to the HP Forums.   I hope you enjoy your experience!
    To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I see that you are having an issue when it comes to printing in green.  I also see that you are having some issues with aligning the printer.
    I have a few suggestions and with any luck, hopefully get this issue resolved for you.
    Please start off by making sure you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip.  I have a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but is meant for HP products in general. Please click the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.

  • Printing problem - HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer, Red color fads on 4th copy

    I have an HP HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer, and am trying to print 75 copies of a program for our event. After the first 5-6 pages the RED in my program starts to turn magenta. I have brand new HP ink, and am printing on HP Color Injet Paper. I have renectly replaced the Black/Yellow printhead (at least 6 months ago). At first when I cleaned the printheads, I could print 2 or 3 pages showing my RED color. Then turns back to magenta. When I received the test patterns after cleaning the print heads they are all perfect with no lines.
    What is going on and how can I fix it?
    This question was solved.

    Hi TM1997,
    I understand you have an Officejet 8500 Wireless that is not printing red properly, it keeps turning to magenta. I'm sorry to hear this, but I will definitely do my best to help you!
    As I'm sure you saw, when replacing the black and yellow printhead, that there are two printheads in the Officejet 8500 and the second one controls the magenta and cyan. I would suggest that you first have a look through this Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues document. You can also manually clean your printhead with the steps in this 'The Following Printhead Appears to be Missing or Damaged' or 'The Following Printhead has a Problem... document.
    Hope this helps, have a great day!!

  • Printing problem - HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - printer head?

    I posted this elsewhere, but I think I posted it on the wrong Forum so I am posting it here now. I hope I did not do anything to upset anyone. I am new to this area, please forgive my clumsiness.
    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer. I've had my printer since December 2009 and no problems. I recently bought a new laptop with Windows 7 and had to go online to find the drivers that work for my printer. Windows 7 was not compatible with this printer.
    Also recently, I am having a problem with what I think may be the black printer head, but when I run diagnostic on it everything comes back saying it is fine. However the problem still exist. When printing the black color will become faded in some areas and in some lines will not only almost totally fade out, but will almost look italic.
    Can you tell me if this is the printer head and does it need replacing or is there another problem?
    SondraS

    Are you using genuine HP cartridges and not refilled or third-party cartridges?
    Print the Print Quality Diagnostic page from the setup menu/print report/ on the printer's front panel
    Are there any quality issues with this page?

  • Will my HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless work with the new Mac OS Lion

    Will my HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless work with the new Mac OS Lion

    My experience with upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion is that the OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless will print just fine, although it seems to take a little longer to find the printer on the network. My scan function however locks up and will not work. This really is an annoyance, though, since I have VueScan, which works fine with Lion.
    Hopefully, Apple and HP will not orphan the OS native scanning feature for HP multifunction printers.
