Having difficulty scanning and copying on Officejet 6500A Plus.  Prints fine.  Scans and copies are illegible with hundreds of verticle lines on the page.  I did all of the various cleaning and restart suggestions, but still doesn't work.

In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

  • Just purchased a office jet 6500A Plus so that I can print from my iPhone and iPad. I can print form my iPhone but my iPad 2 tells me there is no air printer available.  Why does one device recognize the air printer but the other device does not?

    I have the 6500A without plus and it is with a LAN cable connected with my Router.
    First make sure you have the latest printer firmware installed.
    Next restart the printer and the Router.
    I had the same. Problem but it went away after rebooting the Router.

  • How do I get an Office Jet 6500A to print on Card stock?

    How do I get an Office Jet 6500A to print on card stock. It pushes the card stock through the printer but will not print and tells me I have not selected the right print media. There is no selection for card stock.  I have tried every selection.  I assume there are other media definitions that can be downloaded but they certainly are not apparent.  I have been doing this job on all my other HP printers for years.  Suddenly this printer balks.

    Hi,
    Page #22 of the manual says (must be the same as photo paper ?):
    To load cards and photo paper
    1. Lift the output tray.
    2. Slide the paper width guide out as far as possible.
    3. Insert the media print-side down along the right of the main tray. Make sure the media aligns with the right and back edges of the tray and does not exceed the line marking in the tray. If the photo paper has a tab along one edge, make sure the tab is pointing towards the front of the printer.
    4. Slide the media guides in the tray to adjust them for the media size that you have loaded.
    5. Lower the output tray.
    6. Pull out the tray extender.
    And the manual is : h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02519721.pdf

  • How do i print 6 x9 envelopes on my HP office jet 6500A plus?

    I am having a hard time printing 6 x9 envelopes to my printer.  I am doing a simple mail merge from excel to word and I have created a custom size document because I didn't see a template for a 6 x 9 envelope.  Help please

    Hi there @WalterBrown , welcome to the forums!
    I saw your post about how you are trying to print on 6 x 9 sized envelopes and are having some issues.
    I would like to know:
    Do you see the custom size while printing?
    Have you tried printing from another program to see if you are able to select 6 x 9?
    What other programs have you tried?

    Hi midandco,
    I would suggest deleting the printer from your print system, using this document: Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Once you have deleted it, I would suggest verifying and repairing the disk permissions: About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature.
    I would also suggest running your Apple updates:  OS X: Updating OS X and Mac App Store apps
    After the updates, I would recommend readding the printer with theOS X v10.9 Mavericks: Installing and Using the Printer on a Mac.
    Please let me know.

  • Hp office jet pro 8600 won't scan

    Wirelessly connected office jet pro 8600 won't scan in windows. I've checked to make sure proper services are running and they are. Started running diagnostics utility and the driver didn't check out but I have the correct one installed and the printer works just fine. Occasionally a message pops up and says that the computer has lost connection with the scanner. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi GradyIV,
    I can help you scan from your Officejet 8600 to your Windows operating system. It sounds like you have run the HP Print and Scan Doctor, is this whee you say the driver error?
    I suggest using the following steps to delete the printer from device and printers, and the driver from the server properties.
    1. In the ‘Devices and Printers’ folder
    2. Choose ‘Print server properties’.
    Win XP – With no printer selected, click ‘File’ then ‘Server Properties’.
    Windows Vista – With no printer selected, press ‘Alt’ then click ‘File’ then ‘Server Properties’.
    Windows 7/8 and 8.1 – Select any printer in the ‘Devices and Printers’ folder and click ‘Print Server properties’ above.
    3. Click on the ‘Drivers’ tab at the top of ‘Print server properties’ window
    4. Choose the printer you want to uninstall and click ‘Remove’
    5. Choose 'Remove driver only'
    6. The next screen will give a warning, letting you know that deleting the driver package will remove it from the system. Click ‘Yes’ to say that you are sure you want to do this.
    If documents are stuck in the print spooler, you may see an error, cancel any documents pending in the print queue, or try restarting the print spooler, then try to remove the driver from ‘Print server properties’ again. If it still won’t remove the package, restarting the computer and the printer should resolve this ‘in use’ error and allow the driver to be removed.
    After the driver is removed, open Start > All Programs > HP folder > Printer folder > HP Setup and Software (or the printer icon).
    The Setup and software screen will open and you can click on Connect a new printer.
    If the issue persists let me know and I will do what I can to help.

  • How to rollback driver for Office Jet 6500 APlus Printer

    I recently updated the driver for my Office Jet 6500 APlus printer and do not find it to be useful or efficient for my purposes. The printer is connected wirelessly  to a Dell Inspiron 1720 laptop PC running Windows 7 Home Premium. Can anyone tell me how to roll back the printer's driver to the one previously installed which is the one that came with the printer when it was purchased about 4 or 5 years ago.

    Hello oldhand,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having some printing issues since you have updated the driver.
    I have a few steps that I think will help us.
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    I am also going to give you detailed instructions for Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Once the printers software and drivers have been removed, please click on the following link for the HP Officejet Full Feature Software and Driver.
    Please fee free to write me back if you have any other questions.

  • Dissatisfi​ed with HP Office jet 6700 Premium Printer

    I've had a HP Office Jet 6700 Premium Printer for 18 months and have encountered a failed printer head issue which essentially requires full replacement of the printer.  I've seen many other similar reports by others which clearly indicates this printer has a serious problem with the printer heads.  I'm getting ready to replace this printer, which is just 6 months out of warranty, and will seek another vendor to provide printing equipment.  Very disappointed in HP's printer product and will gladly provide input to help others avoid running into this problem.

    Please read this post then provide some details.   What operating system?  What are the error messages on the printer or computer screen?

  • Setting up e-printing on HO Office jet 7500 series printer

    how do i set up e-printing on my HP Office jet 7500 E901a

    Hi samuelesse,
    You can follow these steps to set up ePrint on your 7500.
    1. Press the right arrow on the printer’s front panel, then press the “Setup” button.
    2. Press “Web Services Setup”, and the process will begin automatically if Web Services has not been previously configured (if Web Services has been configured previously, it will show “Printer Email Address”, “ePrint On/Off”, etc.)
    3. Press “Continue”, then “Yes” to accept the Web Services Terms and Conditions. After a short configuration period, an “HP ePrint mobile printing” page should print. This page contains a unique printer code, which we will need in the next step.
    4. Go to http://www.eprintcenter.com.
    5. Click “Sign In”. If you have already set up an account, enter your ePrintCenter account information to sign in. If you have not already set up an account, click “Sign Up” and create a new account.
    6. Click “Add Printer” (the big blue button to the right of the printer picture), and when the “Add a Printer to your Account” box appears, enter the printer code found on the “HP ePrint mobile printing” page. Click “OK”, and then click “Next”.
    7. Enter a custom email address for the printer, and click "Save" to confirm the settings.
    Once you've done these steps, you'll be ready to go.  All you need to do to use ePrint is send an email to the address you set up for the printer.  
    Let me know if you have any other questions, or if you have any problems during this setup.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!
