Hi @dpm2591,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you are unable to scan wirelessly with your HP Officejet 8600 pro on Mac OS X 10.10. I am sorry to hear this, but happy to help!
I would recommend to start with going through this scanning guide, A 'Connection Error' or 'No Computer Detected' Error Message Displays When Scanning for HP Officejet....
Hope this guide works for you!

I cannot "scan to computer" with my HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g ) - The option has been enabled

I cannot "Scan to Computer" with my HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911g - The option has been enable in the HP Utility - but I receive a communication error message - I'm connected to the computer using a Linksys Wireless Router and I am using OS X 10.5.8 - I can print wirelesly and I can use Web Scan, so the connection is good.
How do I resolve the issue?

petergole,
To make sure we aren't dealing with a software problem lets try to uninstall with the 'scrubber option' like this:
1. Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller and click Continue
2. Highlight your device on the left pane
3. Hold the Ctrl, Opt and Cmd keys and click on Uninstall
4. There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
5. Click Continue and let it finish
Now, run a Software Update. This can be done by clicking the Apple in the top left of the screen then clicking Software Updates.
Next, let's reset the printing system:
Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan
- Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
- Select the plus sign to re-add a printer. Select the Default tab on the top of the window. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
Finally, use this guide to reinstall: http://goo.gl/Na4Qm

Intermittently having issue sending scans to networked directory folder HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g

Hello All,
I have a printer installed an AIO HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g which is cappable of scanning either by flatbed or feeder to a networked drive/folder. For the most part this works fine, however 2 times out of 10 it produces the following error;
"Cannot connect to \\'Server details\Folder location path'. Make sure the remote computer is turned on."
Now I have seen many post about disabling the filewall and other, however none of this type after an install.
Some obvous checks have been made already, Network cable replace, Changing of the destination folder location, and reseting the password for the scanner to auth as well as confirming the permisions. And each time the tests via the web console and physical tests work fine though this doesn't last.
Could anyone help?
Thanks

Hi @Paperjam27
From your description, it sounds like the issue is intermittent. It can sometimes be challenging to identify the root cause of an issue when the problem is not consistent, but I am happy to work with you towards a solution. I suspect the issue might have something to do with the network. I know you said you have tried a new cable and done some troubleshooting already but bear with me here.
When you say you replaced the cable, do you have an Ethernet cable connected between the printer and the router? if not, then I wonder if there is some sort of interference on your wireless connection. Is your router is a dual band router broadcasting both 2.4 and 5.0 frequency? The printer only works on 2.4GHz, maybe this is the root cause.
The channel your router is set to can impact your network consistency too. For example, if you are on channel 11 and others in your area are also on channel 11 or even 9 or 10 it causes congestion on that channel. Think of the channel like a highway or interstate, the more cars on that highway/interstate, the slower you go due to congestion, if you are on a highway with less people are on it, it is more like smooth sailing! You can print a network configuration page to see what channel you are using and see what channel others in your area are no. If the higher channels are most common you might consider changing yours to 1, 2, or 3, and visa versa. How to: Printing a Network Configuration Page.
has this ben an issue since you have had the printer or did it recently start happening? If this only recently started, can you think of anything that changed recently? Do you have only one access point (router) or do you have a secondary router or extender? Can you think of anything that might be interfering with your network, and do you find the issue occurs more at a certain time of the day than others?
I found on my network at home, I was often seeing delays in response time in the early evening because others are coming home from school and work and 'clogging up the channel', I changed the channel and have had little to no issue since.
Let me know if you think of anything, and post back with the answers to the questions I have posted and I will get back to you. Thanks.

Can't Login to Embedded Web Server for HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g

I have a HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g that I am trying to access in order to update the adress book for the scanner but in order to do that I must login. I have never set up a user name or password for it. Is there a default username and password?

Hello @jessescopely,
Welcome back to the HP forums.
I understand that when you try to access the EWS (Embedded Web Server) for your Officejet pro 8600, you are prompted for a username and password.
Unfortunately there is no default username or password.
On rare occasions this can be fixed by restoring the network defaults.
Go into the Setup menu.
Select the Network sub menu.
Choose Restore Network Defaults.
I have also sent you via private message the steps to reset your printer back to factory defaults.
If you are unfamiliar with how the Forum's private message capability works, this post has instructions.
If neither of those clear the password, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836.

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.

Unable to Communicate with Printer. HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g

Unable to Communicate with Printer. HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g {Removed for privacy}
I cant even connect to the printer on IE, Firefox I get in just fine.
I have it set to only warn of ink when printing so what fix won't work
I noted my Firmware
I am on Win 7 64 bit

Are you receiving any error messages when you print from the desktop? Its possible the print spooler is having issues which is not pushing the jobs to the printer. Lets restart the print spooler to get any old jobs that could be stuck in the queue removed.
1. Press the start orb in the bottom left on the screen.
2. Click on "Run"
3. Type "services.msc" (without the quotes)
4. Locate the Print Spooler service in the right column
5. Click restart on the service link on the left
After it restarts the spooler go ahead and retry printing. Let me know if this works.
Thanks,
Sean

OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911g cannot complete s/w installation on laptop running XP

Initially, successfully installed the 8600 s/w on a Dell D810 laptop running XP which is linked both via Ethernet and wirelessly to the same LAN as the printer. The printer is wirelessly linked to a port on a WAP device connected to the LAN/router. After setting up the router with DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 addresses, successfully set-up e-Print function thru Verizon high speed internet connection. This confirms that the my LAN and Internet can see the printer connection through the WAP. Guess I should have left well enough alone, but I decided to also install the printer on my desktop, a Dell XPS desktop (also running on XP) that is linked thru a wired Ethernet connection to the same LAN.
The XPS s/w install was flawless and I can print from the desktop and HP e-print functions continue to work on the 8600, but I can no longer print from the laptop. As I mentioned, the s/w did load successfully on the laptop when I initially installed the printer. Following a suggestion on HP's website, I uninstalled the HP 3800 s/w in an attempt to reinstall the printer on the laptop. However, I have not been able to successfully reload the s/w on the laptop, despite numerous attempts.. The program can find the printer on the LAN, it always comes up with the same result: "The printer was unable to be installed over the network". I confirmed that there is no firewall or security setting blocking the s/w load.
As part of my problem resolution, I've also followed the procedures contained in HP Troubleshooting Your Wireless Connection but still cannot complete the installation process on the laptop. In my latest attempt to resolve the problem, I marked the 8600 as shared on the XPS desktop system, as suggested in another post, but suspect that would only affect USB-connected printers, not those that are wirelessly connected.
When I downloaded the HP Hardware Diagnostic Utility (HPHDU), it also was able to find the printer on the LAN but displayed a message: "We're sorry but the OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911g in not supported by this utility".
Can anyone offer a suggestion as to why the 8600 install worked successfully when initially loaded on my laptop but I cannot reload it? That could provide a clue as to what is blocking the reinstallation on the laptop. As I said, the desktop s/w loaded successfully and I can access the 8600's functions from there. Each of the HP utilities I downloaded from HP and have run on the laptop can find the 8600, but none can complete the s/w load so that I can use the printer from the laptop.
The LAN also has an Ethernet link to a HP OfficeJet 7310 that can be accessed from any PC on my network, so I reluctant to entirely remove all HP software so I can at least have one printer operational. I feel like I am on the bleeding edge of technology so any help is appreciated!
Thanks.

Officejet Pro 8600 N911g new firmware will not install.

My printer: Officejet Pro 8600 N911g
Current Firmware: CLP1CN1416AR
My problem: Downloaded the latest firmware update (Version CLP1CN1322CR). When I go to install it, my printer shows as listed, but in the STATUS cloumn, it is listed as "Not applicable".
I turned my printer on/off.
I tried updating via network, and when it checks for an update, it states there are no updates avaiable.
I tried updating via USB.
I tried updating via the LCD panel on the printer, and when it checks for an update, it states there are no updates avaiable.
Is there something wrong as to why this current firmware will not install?
Thanks for any help.

New Firmware (CLP1CN1416R) was installed automatically (Printer was set for "Auto Update"). Prior to new firmware install, printer has performed flawlessly...no problems. Immediately after printer updated it's firmware automatically I began to have multiple problems.
First, it kept asking me to perform an "Alignment" which I dutifully performed only to have message come back that 'Alignment Failed". Printed sheet looked fine, and printer printed fine but now before any page will print the "Alignment Recommended" message comes up which I have to then override (Click 'Do Not Align' button at bottome of 'Alignment Recommended' message box. This is getting really OLD!! Simply unacceptable for a business class printer!!
Also, the printer randomly has started giving other messages such as "There is a problem with the printer or ink system" AND "Cartridges are Missing" ("when I've just recently put in new catridges and levels are OK!!) AND "Paper Jam" (when there is no jam!!)
None of these problems have occurred prior to the automatic firmware update. I believe the reason HP hasn't posted the new firmware update to their Customer Service website is that they know there are bugs in it and don't want to compound the problems the new version has already created. I seriously question why an automatic updating of firmware was done with equipment set to "Auto Update" and yet that same new firmware is not available to those who might have had their printers set for "Manual Update".
HP Customer Service - You need to issue a statement from the company as to what has happened with this firmware update. If there are problems, take responsibility for it and make it right. HP knows who it sent out auto updates to. These printer owners should be immediately notified and the situation made right. It is not real assuring to have your front line staff not know why the new firmware is not on the website. I do not like the idea of having to pay for a Support Call when the problems with my out of warranty printer are directly tied to the Auto Updating of said printer with apparently defective firmware.
I'd really appreciate a response back from someone in HP Customer Service.

HP Print and Scan Doctor can't connect to HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus.

My HP Officejet Pro 8600 has been working perfectly for the last 1+ years, up until 2 days ago, when it stopped printing jobs submitted from my Windows 7 desktop. I've tried all manner of repair, thus far unsuccessfully, including
resetting the IP on both the printer and the desktop
trying wireless connection, no difference
reinstalling drivers and firmware
hard-resetting the printer
repeatedly trying to print test pages
repeatedly restarted the Print Spooler, and rebooted the desktop
attempting to troubleshoot using HP Print and Scan Doctor.
Additional facts:
My wife can use the printer from her work laptop without any problems.
I can ping the printer from the desktop at its static IP, so IP-level connectivity isn't the problem.
The standard print queue view indicates "(Offline)" in the title bar, and attempting to print a test page from the Properties dialog submits the page, then Status flips to "Error - Offline - Printing", despite the fact that the Properties dialog shows no checkmark next to Use Printer Offline menu entry.
The Doctor finds the printer at its IP and acknowledges that it's installed, and when asked to Fix Printing, says that everything checks-out okay with the product. However, when I ask it to Test Print, it comes back with a pop-up stating it's Unable to Communicate with Printer; it suggests "Click Help for additional assistance information.", but there's no Help button.
If you've experienced this printer in a similar firmly-wedged state, I'd deeply appreciate hearing how you fixed it.
Thanks,

Hi @Sunshyn2005
I timed-out waiting for advice, and contacted HP Support, who helped me get the printer back on the air. While we didn't manage to root-cause it, in the course of trying various things, the tech disabled Norton 360's firewall, which then allowed connecting to the printer, and restoring print service, which remains up after re-enabling the firewall.
The timing of the disconnection doesn't neatly corellate with any Windows updates. My own theory is that it was caused by a 360 update, but am unable to find a smoking gun, since 360 doesn't provide update history. The exact root-cause remains a mystery, but at least provides another thing for folks to try should they find themselves in similar straits.
I really appreciated your hint that a Windows update might be the root cause, and your pointing out how to review the history and back-out updates: this morning, I found that Windows had installed a batch of updates overnight, and found that no browsers worked. Using your advice, I rolled back the update, restoring browsing.

Scan issues with HP Officejet Pro 8600 that worked fine!Now, I have a problem----is it Dropbox?

Never had a problem, but now when I scan, and it goes straight to My Documents, when I go to open it, it's been replaced by an old picture. Every one of my darn documents has that old picture and I can 't find any of my documents. Please help. I do not have it hardwired in. I have reset the printer and my laptop, but this started a few months ago and I think it has to do with Drop box. I don't know what else to do.

Hi @joann2164

HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g Scan to gmail with 2-step verification

I have an HP Office Jet Pro 8600 N911g printer which is a replacement for another one. I am using gmail. I am seting up the Scan to E-mail. I put in all the required information asked by the wizard and when I test it, it comes back with "Incorrect credentials". My gmail has a two step verification process where it will send a code to my mobil device. I remember setting the Outgoing E-mail profiles up on the previous printer before the replacement but I cannot remember how I got the "scan to E-mail" to work using the 2-step gmail verification.
Looking at another post about gmail I even click on the "Network" tab and changed the IPv4 DNS server settings to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.
I checked and tested my gmail/Google to make sure that my gmail 2-step verification is working correctly.

Scan to email allow you to take a document that you have and send it wherever you want to send it as long as you have someone's email or you can send the document to your email.
Here is the solution to the 2-step verification with google's email.
Get into your google email. Click on your picture or name in the right-hand corner and click "Account". On the "Signing In" box click on "2-step verification". From there go to the App-Specific passwords tab. Click "manage application specific passwords". At the bottom chose mail, select device and then generate. Follow the prompts and guidelines from that point.

Printing duplex with HP Officejet Pro 8600 causes windows 7 OS to shut down/restart

Why when printing duplex with my HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer it causes windows 7( 64-bit) to shut down/restart. Windows message is "Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown. I've ran HP Hardward Diag. Utility and Print and Scan Doctor which indicated everything is working properly with the printer. Ocassionaly I can print duplex without windows shutting down and restarting, but most of the time it creates issue with Windows causing it to stop and restart. Single sided printing seems to be fine. I've already oncehad windows to "Startup Repair" in which ccase I selected restore to a previous working point. Everything worked for awhile then a duplex printing session starting causing windows to shut down again. THanks for your assistance.

Yes, the updated USB 3.0 driver corrects the issue and should be installed.

Hello: I have the "HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One Printer model N911g" and read in the manual that it comes with Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software. I can't find any OCR software on the accompanying optial disk "HP Officejet pro 8600 series, Windows XP, VIsta, 7, 8 version 28.8".
I'm using an HP Pavilion dv7 laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium ver 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 build 7601.
I found an entry in All Programs called I.R.I.S. registration but can't figure out what to do with it. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
John

Is Windows Server 2012 compatible with HP Officejet pro 8600 plus printers

Hello,
I am wondering whether HP officejet pro 8600 plus printers compatible with Windows server 2012 - I have the driver installed on the server and deployed - installation of the driver and all was successful but it won't print from the server or on a user's computer from the deployed printers list. No error message comes up, I just click print and nothing happens. If I install it individually on the user computers - it seems to print as a 'network printer' but won't print from the server, and if it can not print from the server then it can not print from the deployed printers list. I was looking up on driver compatibility list online earlier and could not find Windows Server 2012 mentioned on the list - only server 2008 and below.
Essentially what I am trying to find out is whether this officejet pro 8600 plus printer is compatible with our server.
Many thanks,
Michael Peters
