Can't setup the Web Services as printer says "cannot connect to the server to get the update"

Just purchased and am setting up my HP Officejet pro 8600. It has set-up wirelessly without a hitch until I tried to install/enable the web services and I continue to get a message saying "the printer could not connect to the server" therefore it cannot check for an update on Web Services apps and they will not be enabled. Never had so much trouble setting up an HP printer in the past. Looks like this web services is more of a headache and a gimmick to sell this printer.

Hi Guys,
I found the solution after 2 days.
Open internet explorer and type in the IP address of the printer in the address bar then press enter.
The embedded web server of the printer should pull up.
C. Click the network tab near the top.
On the left side, click IPv4 under your connection type, wireless or wired.
D. Change the IP address from automatic to manual.
Enter the same IP address, default gateway, and subnet mask.
Enter 8.8.8.8 for the primary dns and 8.8.4.4 for the secondary then click apply.
E. After the apply button has been clicked to apply the static IP settings, enable Web Services.
Good luck

  • Can't setup ePrint / Web Services on a new HP 8600 Pro Plus Wireless Printer

    I just purchased a new HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus All in one printer. I setup the printer on my home wireless network and it prints great. I am now trying to setup ePrint and when I go through the option to setup the Web Services /ePrint function on the Printer or via the web application for the printer I get the following error:
    "Cannot connect to the server.
    Check the Internet connection and try again. Or contact your system administrator or the person who set up the printer. If your network requires a proxy server address to connect to Internet, click Enter Proxy or check your browser settings."
    My primary PC is running Windows 7 Home Premium with Svc Pac 1, 64 bit
    My home network is set for DHCP and I do not have a Proxy Server setup but the Web Services setup page is asking for a Proxy Server an Port.
    I have already established a ePrint ID but cannot complete the process until I can get the Printer Web Services setup process to complete.
    Any suggestions?

    HI Adrianf; 
    Hope you are doing well,welcome to the community,  
    I wil take several steps to make sure they are not causing the issue, 
     Try this tool Click here
    I will also set an static ipaddress for my printer and change the DNS servers provided by your ISP to Google DNS servers 
    How to set an static IP address 
    Follow these steps to assign an unchanging static IP address to the product through the Embedded Web Server (EWS).
    Open a new Web browser window.
    Type the IP address located on the Network Configuration Page in the address bar of the Web browser, using http:// to begin the address e.g. http://192.168.0.1  Then press Enter .  The EWS home page for the product opens.
    In the EWS screen, click the Network tab.
    Click Wired (802.3) , and then click the IPv4 Configuration or the IPv6 Configuration tab.
    Click Manual IP . The Manual IP Address box opens.
    In the Manual IP Address box, type an IP address with the same values in the first three sets of digits (subnet values) as the product's IP address (listed on the Network Configuration Page), and a higher value (between 1 and 254) in the fourth set of digits. This creates a static IP address on the same subnet, but outside the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) range.
    For example, if the product's original IP address is 192.168.0.1 , assign the static IP address to 192.168.0.200 .
    NOTE:
    Do not type the static IP address use as the example. Enter a static IP address based on the IP address for your product. This can be found on network configuration page.
    Enter the Subnet Mask and the Default Gateway settings as they appear on the Network Configuration Page.
    Click OK to save the new settings, and then click Exit or close the browser to exit the EWS.
    While you are here in the IPV4  you can set the DNS servers of google instead of the DNS servers provided by your ISP  just change the option of automaticly select DNS server and use this;
    DNS servers of google are 8.8.8.8 and alternative DNS 8.8.4.4
    Make sure that the operating system is updated, that the routers firware is the lastest. 
    Hope it helps and best of luck;

  • I can't use "Import Web Service".

    Hi, I can't use "Import Web Service" in LabVIEW Web UI builder.
    I write IP:8080 and click on Connect.
    And it says "No Web ervices found on the server".
    Please help.

    I think I'm one step from finished application.
    So ... I've tried this building web service from tutorial and when I'm on the step when I have to deploy a Web Service to the Web Server I have a problem.
    I rightclick on My Web Service under "build specifications" and click to deploy and I get this message in attachment.
    My question is how can I start the web server ?
    Thanks in advance and I hope that after solving this I won't bother any of you anymore.

    Last I tried this was with one of the beta of Flex2 and it

  • Advised to disable/re​enable web services. Printer console only indicates 'remove web services'.

    Four emails stuck in queue.  Advised to disable/reenalble 'web services''. Printer displays only
    'remove web services'.  (HP Officejet Plus 8600 Pro All in one; Windows 7, IE8).

    Hello MurrayJ,
    Once you remove the web services, the next time you access the web services menu you will be prompted to enable the web services once again.  If you have removed we services and are still only seeing this option, then you may need to contact tech support for a semi-full reset.

  • How can I call a web service using JAVAscript in LCD

    hi guys,
         I know it can call a WSDL in LCD, but I have not any WSDL web service , and I have a REST web service ,how can I call this REST web service in LCD? I checked some documents and found nothing...if it's possible that it can call a REST web service using JAVAScript code, I mean I can program some code to call this web service ?
    thanks,
    Jesse

    Hi Jesse,
    You can do GET, PUT and POST using FormCalc, so you should be able to access a REST web service.

    You can't delete the update and your problem probably is not in the Update.
    Check to see if Location Services is turned ON. (Settings > Privacy > Location Services)

    Have you recently changed WiFi routers?

  • Anytime i try and eprint from my ipad the printer says i need a proxy server and code?

    Bought new Photosmart 6510e all in one. Set up went well including wireless internet setup. When I try to use my ipad and send document to print the printer says I need a "Proxy server name and code" I don't know what this means or how to find this server?
    What can I do to get this going?The computer I have is an Acer with Windows Vista.   

    Hello Manny12,
    I would start but suggesting you power cycle the printer. You can do this by following these steps:
    While the printer is still on, unplug the power cord from the printer, leave it unplugged for 30 seconds, then reconnect the power cord to the printer. Once plugged back in the printer should power on automatically.
    You also may try restoring the network defaults and re-connecting your printer back to your wireless network. If you are still experiencing issues you may also want to disable and re-enable Web Services.
    If you have any further issues or questions you can reply to this post and I will try to assist you.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!
