Getting MAC OS10.10.1 to communicate with Office Jet Pro 8610

My printer works fine in the internet and copy modes.  It automatically downloads upgrades. When I first set it up, everything worked fine, both in harwire version and wireless.   Then for some reason it quit  working, as I was getting a "printer is not connected" message on the print screen.  I then threw all HP divers into the trash and reinstalled frm the HP site the latest driver.  Same result.  I then tried to deinstall, but when I opened the HP folder, there was no "deinstall" . Could you please tell me how to correct this, as Ihave now had the printer a couple of months, without being abl to use it. Regards,  Ron

Hello , Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your time here! I'd like to help you with the communication issues you are having between your HP Officejet Pro 8610 and your Mac running OS X 10.10. I am assuming you are attempting to connect wirelessly, since you mentioned that the internet functions on your printer are already working fine. Please feel free to correct me if this is not the case. The easiest way to confirm that both the mac and printer are properly connected to your network is to see if you can access the printer's Embedded Web Server (EWS). On the home screen of the printer touch the Wireless icon.Make a note of your IP address.On your Mac open the Safari browser.Type the IP address (ex.10.0.0.9) into the address bar and press Enter.Does your printer's page come up?You can also try doing a network power reset to refresh the network connection for both devices. Let's leave the router on and unplug the power cable (NOTE: Do not reset the router.), then do the same with the printer, and shut down the computer. After a full minute, plug the router back in, wait for it to fully power up, then plug the printer back in and wait for the wireless light to become solid. Once both the router and printer are on, go ahead and turn the computer back on. Doing this will refresh the network connection. More troubleshooting steps, if you can access the printer's EWS, but unable to add to your Printers and Scanners can be found here: HP Printers - 'Printer Offline' or 'Printer Not Responding' Message (OS X) Please respond to let me know if this helped to resolve your issue.

  • Driver can't communicate with new officejet pro 8610 for scanning

    I just bought a new officejet pro 8610.  Followed all directions and set up with wireless connection.  Prints fine but will not scan.  Will not work if used at control panel on printer or software.  First tried it on a windows 7 machine.  Just tried on a new windows 8.1 machine - same problem.  Very frustrating.  Have done the HP scanner doctor and when it gets to driver it says scanner driver can't communicate to product.  Used disk and then went to HP web site and downloaded latest software and drivers - still does not work.
    I'm about ready to take the printer back but am open to any ideas.

    Hi @ecsteve 
    It is possible you have a firewall or antivirus that is blocking the scan communication. Printing is considered outgoing and is not considered a threat, but because scanning is incoming communication, an antivirus or firewall could be blocking it to protect the computer.
    If you have Norton, take a look at the following link; I cannot configure or access a network printer or other devices after I install my Norton product.
    I found this in a post by @Norton_Support . If you have a different Anti Virus program, let me know and we will work through this together to come to a solution. Thanks.

  • Mac to Office Jet Pro 8600 printer

    I have a IMAC desk top connected to an Office Jet Pro 8600 running MAC OS 10.6.8.  I cannot get the scanner to scan photo's to a specific size.   I use the HP Utility but no matter what I try to do the scanned image only cooies from the front right corner of the scanner glass.  How do I change the JPEG scanner size and how do I scan whatever size image I place on the glass?

    Hi @paul8588,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I noticed that you are trying to scan photos to a specific size with your HP Officejet 8600, and I am happy to help!
    I would recommend the following:
    Reset the printing system. Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system.
    Verify and repair disk permissions. Disk Utility 12.x: Repair disk permissions. 
    What size of paper are you trying to scan on the glass?
    If the above recommendations do not solve your issue, please see this guide. How to Scan: Mac OS X v10.6, and you will see some alternate scanning options without HP software.
    Hope this helps!

  • 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." See the FAQ section of http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03967522&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en &os=4159&product=3752456&sw_lang=#N1237

  • Office Jet Pro 8600 Plus Faxing Problem with 2-EXT port Connected

    I have the Office Jet Pro 8600 Plus and when I fax, I must disconnect the phone line connected to the 2-EXT port on the back of the printer. This is very annoying, and I'm hoping someone here can provide a more convienent solution. I'm connected through a Cable Modem EMTA device for my voice service that is sharing the fax...which like I said, faxes fine, as long as the phone line is disconnected from the 2-EXT port first.
    Thx,

    Hi @powwow63 ,
    I see that you are having issues with sending faxes, you have to disconnect the line in Ext 2 to be able to send a fax.
    I can help you with this.
    Using a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) telephone service can cause faxing to fail because fax transmissions are sensitive to the timing of the signals used to transmit the fax. If using a VoIP digital line is necessary, changing the Fax Speed Adjustment setting to Slow might improve the ability to send a fax over a VoIP telephone line.
    Make sure that you have a DSL filter installed. If you do not have a DSL filter, contact your DSL provider to find out where you can buy one.
    I have provided a document with some steps for changing the fax setting on the printer.
    Cannot Send or Receive Faxes.
    Go to Solution nine: Enable or disable error correction mode in this document.
    Fax Sending Fails Intermittently or Fails for Only One Recipient.
    Disregard the title.
    Have a wonderful day!
    Thank You.

  • Can I use AirPrint on my ipad2 with an office jet pro 8000 wireless?

    I am currently using hp Eprint home and biz but can't print from pages
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi Unkljoey,
    Are you referring to web pages inside the HP Home & Biz app, or are you referring to the actual app Pages?
    Currently the Office Jet Pro 8000 Wireless does not support AirPrint or ePrint. The only way to print from the internet or selected saved files is to use the HP Home & Biz app. Here is a list of ePrint and AirPrint compatible printers.
    In order to print web pages with the app it is required that you register the app itself with your eprincenter.com account. You can do this by selecting ePrint in the top right corner on the app, and then choose register with ePrint.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • Jabber for Mac 9.2.1 Cannot communicate with the server

    Hi All,
    I'm using Webex and the Jabber for Mac 9.2.1 client that was automatically pushed.  I see "Cannot communicate with the server" when I attempt to login. 
    The same credentials work correctly when using the 8.6.5 client version.  I've attached the problem report file.
    I would appreciate some guidance on what I need to do to get this to work.
    Cheers,
    Steve

    We've seen this with a few of our users as well. All started noticing having issues Friday morning. As this is a hosted service for us via webex we had our engineers call in to Jabber support. Cisco performed a modification to their account and they were able to connect again. No SRV records were messed with.
    ***EDIT*** - This appears to have been caused by a certificate issue. The Trusted Root Certificate for QuoVadis expired and was not renewed on some machines. 
    Go here: https://www.quovadisglobal.com/QVRepository/DownloadRootsAndCRL.aspx
    Install the Cert for : QuoVadis Root CA2 (in windows, download as DER>right click file>install)
    Jabber should connect now. The issue was in SSL validation with the appropriate hosted servers.

  • Is i mac OS 10.5.8 compatible with hp office jet pro 8615e printer

    can an imac osx 10.5.8 be compatible with an hpofficejet pro 8615 e printer?

    Hi @dennisbriggs 
    I understand you have 10.5 and are trying to use the HP Officejet 8615 . The only suggestion I can make will not likely be ideal, but you could email anything you want to print from the computer to the printer.
    Each HP ePrint-enabled printer, such as the 8615 , has its own unique email address. After you enable HP ePrint on your HP ePrint-enabled printer, you can print from your mobile or network-connected device by sending an email to your HP printer's email address. With HP ePrint, you can print from anywhere, at any time. If you can send an email, you can use HP ePrint.
    This blurb, and more information, can be found in the following HP Document, ePrint Product Specifications.
    As mentioned. This is likely not ideal, it really depends on how much printing you plan to do. If this is practical for you as a work around then mission accomplished, we found a solution, if not....  The only other options would be to consider taking the printer back and getting a different model that is compatible with 10.5, or upgrading the OS if that Mac can allow for an upgrade to 10.6
    I know you'd rather not upgrade, but you might consider treating yourself, there are some nice new shiney Macs available. 
    What ever you decide, if you would like additional assistance, feel free to post back as I am happy to help.
    I hope my recommendations resolve your inquiry.

  • Can I get a Dell U2410 Monitor to work with a MacBook Pro?

    I rashly bought this monitor. It looks lovely but it has a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1200, which I could not get with the VGA connection, and Dell do not make drivers for the Mac at all. Is there any chance of getting this monitor to work properly with my MacBook Pro? I found the Dell support site extremely difficult to penetrate, so I put the monitor back in its box and am going to sell it if I can't easily find out how to use it.
    Any advice is welcome.

    I think you are using the wrong adapter. Higher resolutions require the use of a mini display port to DVI or DVI-D Dual link adapter. A VGA adapter will not do the job.
    And I assume you are trying "extended" and not "mirrored" mode. What model Macbook Pro do you have?
