How do i connect a surface 2 to an office jet pro 8600

I am trying to connect a surface 2 windows RT 8.1 tablet to an HP office jet pro 8600.  I have down loaded the driver from the HP web site but I get an error message that states it can not be run on this computer, and I should go to the app store. I can't find any special appnfor this.

Hi 1643, welcome to the HP Forums. Windows RT does not need drivers installed like other versions of Window. It should be just a matter of connecting it with a USB cable, or following the wireless/wired instructions contained in this document:
Install the Printer Software in Windows RT or Windows 8 on a Tablet.
Let me know how it goes

  • How to Scan using your HP Office Jet Pro 8600

    Well, I figured out my own answer because I couldn't find a "solved" topic in this regard. So then I decided to post my findings in order to help the next querier (is that a word = one who queries). FYI -  I am not a 'techie' and while I can find my way around a computer it sometimes takes a while.  Also, I have Windows 7 on this laptop if that makes a difference.
    1. Go to Control Panel and choose:
    2. Hardware and Sound, then
    3. Devices & Printers, then
    4. Fax-HP Office Jet Pro 8600 (Network) or whatever printer choice pertains to your situation, then
    5. HP Printer Assistant, then
    6. Scanner Actions, then
    7. Scan a document or photo, then
    8. Save as PDF
    9. Scan
    10. Save to folder you choose
    I know this may seem simplistic to most of you but maybe someone like me is out there trying to find this out and this might help.

    Hi Acupuncture,
    Thank you very much for posting your solution that you found yourself, on using the scan function on your HP OfficeJet Pro 8600. I also apologize we were not fast enough to answer one of your inquiries on the HP Support Forums. I was able to check your user page but was unable to find your initial post on asking us How to Scan, did you delete the question? Either way I am glad you are now up and scanning from your OJ 8600.
    For future reference I would like you to take a look here: How to Scan: Windows 7, here you will be given all options and shortcuts on scanning with or without the HP software as well as some cool features, like scanning from the front panel of your 8600 and adding multiple pages to a single file.
    Again I appreciate you taking the time to help the other Community members, so Thank you again!!

  • Office Jet Pro 8600 hp cannot connect wirelessly to WPA2 Enterprise encrypted network

    HP Office Jet Pro 8600 Premium all in one Printer Scanner CAN NOT connect to encrypted wireless network? Specifics: Wireless network uses WPA 2 Enterprise encryption without passphrase. ( mac filtering only ) Mac address of device is already entered into the wireless router list of devices allowed to connect. Wireless wizard reports ....unable to connect due to authentication failure. alternative instalation attempts ask for passphrase which the wireless network does not use at all. Has been a big issue preventing deployment of mobile wireless scanning and printing throughout the facility. WPA2 is clearly listed as supported wireless protocol. Please help. Several weeks of struggle with India did not resolve the issue. Thank You.

    If your router supports dual band broadcasting 5Ghz and 2.4 Ghz, log into your router and look at the two wireless profile names. The names (SSID) should be changed so that they are different from each other for each band 5 and 2.4. Also if the SSID is the default SSID that ships with the router, change it to a unique name as a neighbor within range may have the same SSID. Rename to "my unique SSID" and connect the printer to the new network name "my unique SSID" as example. If you need further assistance, list the exact model of your router

  • How do I print single envelopes on my hp office jet Pro 8600 premium

    How do I print single evelopes on my hp  office jet Pro 8600 premium

    Hi B4567
    I understand you would like to know how to print a single envelope.
    I have provided a document on how to print envelopes. There is also a video included.
    You could use the one tray for envelopes and the other one for paper so you don't have to keep pulling out the stack of paper to print one envelope all the time.
    Hope that helps.

  • 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!

    Zerr222

    Hi Zerr222,
    Try unplugging the router from the power for 30 seconds, plug it back in and allow it 2 minuts to fully start.
    Next turn the printer off and back on and check for any difference.
    If the issue remain, may you changed a wireless router lately? what is your exact router brand and model?

  • My new HP Office Jet pro 8600 won't connect to my wireless Airport

    I try and set up my new Office jet to my wireless and I get the message:  More than one access point/wireless router has been found that matches your wireless network name.  I only have one router and it is an Apple Airport Extreme.  I've tried doing throught he network wizard and tried doing it through the installation on the computer with it directly connected to the computer.  I called HP and was on the phone for an hour and all they could come up with was that the Airport had 5 GHz and so it will sense two routers.  Huh????  What can I do?  I don't want a new router since I just got that one.

    If your router supports dual band broadcasting 5Ghz and 2.4 Ghz, log into your router and look at the two wireless profile names. The names (SSID) should be changed so that they are different from each other for each band 5 and 2.4.

  • How can I preview before I print office jet pro 8600

    hp officejet pro 8600  model CM749A
    My hp photosmart C7280 would show me a preview page before I would print.  plus if I had four pages showing and only wanted to print one, I could do that also.  With the office jet 8600 it prints everything and I waste a lot of paper and ink.  I hope there is something I am not finding to change this, I looked everywhere to find a printing preview.  I will be very dissatisfied if this is how this printer works!  They are supposed to get better not worse.

    Hi,
    This is probably from the applications. Printers only print whatever they are told to do. Many applications allow users to select a range, a number of pages .... to print that means we can print from page a to b, from page m to n, from page x to z ... in one go.

  • How do I arrange the order of icons on the printer's touch screen panel? (Office Jet Pro 8600)

    There has to be a way to remove apps from the screen and to re arrange.  The only one I use is scan to email and it is buried 7 screens deep.
    Does anybody know how to do this?  This is really annoying and I would not have bought the rpinter if you can't rearrange and remove icons.
    I don't care about Tony Robbins.

    Hi @Tires1961,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I understand that you would like to move the Scan to Email app to the front of the line on your Officejet 8600 printer.

  • HP Office Jet Pro 8600 e-all-in-one Printer - N9911g won't connect to the internet

    I've been trying to set this up for 2 days.  I have the software on my computer and connected to my printer, however, my printer isn't getting a connection to the internet. I've tried everything I know. Also, the software on my computer says that the security certificate isn't safe so I installed it and it still doesn't like it.

    emarieh,
    Your router could most definitely be the cause. You will have to contact your router company and have them open up specific ports on the router. Please take a look here to learn a little more on Security Information and Firewalls.
    I found this helpful information from fellow Community Member VisionAiry, please see below:
    Incoming ports (UDP) are destination ports on the computer while outgoing ports (TCP) are destination ports on the HP printer.
    • Incoming (UDP) ports: 137, 138, 161, 427
    • Outgoing (TCP) ports: 137, 139, 427, 9100, 9220, 9500
    The ports are used for the following functions:
    Printing
    UDP ports: 427, 137, 161
    TCP port: 9100
    Photo card upload
    UDP ports: 137, 138, 427
    TCP port: 139
    Scanning
    UDP port: 427
    TCP ports: 9220, 9500
    HP device status
    UDP port: 161
    Faxing
    UDP port: 427
    TCP port: 9220
    HP device installation
    UDP port: 427
    Web Services Ports
    UDP and TCP: 80, 443, 5222, and 5223
    Bonjour Ports
    UDP and TCP: 5353, 5297, and 5298
    You will need to contact your router manufacturer and have them unblock these ports, let me know if this helps.

  • Office jet pro 8600 how to default to black ink only when printing from my ipad

    Is there a way to set an option to print black ink only when printing from my Ipad 2?
    When I use the print icon the only option that shows is double page. I would like to be able to print black only.

    Hi,
    Airprint does not support Black ink only printing, however the HP ePrint app allow it.
    Be aware that the option is only available for documents (e.g Office files, PDFs, Web pages and emails) but not for Photo files.
    You may find the steps to get and use the app in the document below:
