HP 6700

I have a HP 6700 printer and cannot print the header and footer in my word document. It gets cut off. I'm using an iMac (OS X Yosemite 10.9.5). I have been searching and just can't find how to fix this problem. If anyone knows, I'd be very appreciate. Thanks much.

MY HP 6700 printer says it is offline. How do we get it back?

From one day to the other, it appeared as "offline" though it´s connected, I have windows 8.1. I desinstalled and tried to install again but in the process the printer is not found. I have also installed the HP Print and Scan Doctor I printed the Network Configuration Page and there I see no errors, reseted the printer, connected to my wireless again, do not know what else to try Please I need assistance.
thanks

Welcome to the HP Community @Mayrus !
I read your post about how your Officejet 6700 is appearing as "offline". I hope to help you out with this issue!
I would first suggest following the steps in this guide. Normally assigning a static IP will help stabilize the connection to keep it from disconnecting.

How can I print only in black on my HP 6700 from my I Phone 5?

How can I print only in black on my HP 6700 from my I Phone 5?

Hi picheny. How are you printing from your iPhone. Are you using Apple's built in Airprint or the HP Eprint app? Airprint doesn't seem to have any such option. With Eprint, you can specify.

How can I print to Officejet 6700 from Win XP x64 computer?

Purchased the 6700 and conencted to network and prints from Win 7 laptops fine.
My desktop workstation in HP Z600 running Win XP X64, but cannot seem to get a driver to suit to print over the network.
I would prefer not to have to trash and replace the OS on the workstation!
Is there a work-around or some sort of interface that I could use?
My home network does have a little HP server, but it runs Win Server 2003, which is also incapable to connecting to the printer.
This question was solved.

6700 not shown in windows printer list

Months ago I installed and have been using an Officejet 6700 Premium all-in-one. When I try to print, it wants to print to the Fax. I looked at Windows 7's list of available printers, and it shows only the Fax, and of course it's the default. How can I "install" the printer and set it to be Windows' default?
I tried to add a printer and the list does not offer the HP 6700 despite checking for Windows Update. Help, please?

Order of to-dos in 6700

Hello,
In my Nokia 6700, the to-dos are sorted in no obvious order, seemingly almost random. Although I can select to sort them by "deadline" I then have to scroll up to the top of the list to see today's to-dos - very annoying. And the next time I go into the to-dos, they are sorted in the original order again.
Is there any way to always have them sorted by date? Note - these have been sync-ed with Outlook tasks (using OVI), in case that is important. Many thanks in advance.
TIA.

Officejet 6700 error while searching for updates: 'Printer could not connect to server'

I recently purchase the Officejet 6700 Premium. While setting the printer up, I received the error 'The printer could not connect to the server.' I first received this while the printer was searching for updates. I later received the same error while trying to set up ePrint from my computer.
The printer is connected through my wireless router. All other print services function normally. It is connected to the network, and I have printed several times over the wireless network.
Though I don't think it matters, since the on-board print set-up gave me the error, I run Windows 7 64-bit on my computer.
Thanks for any help!

What is the IP address of the printer? What is the make and model of the router that you use in the wireless set up? Is the router firmware up to date?
I would first try power cycling the router and the printer. Turn off/unplug the router and then power down the printer. Then plug the router back in and wait for it to be fully up and functioning before turning the printer back on. After you have both pieces of equipment back on and functioning attempt to connect to web services again.
If still having problems I would attempt to set a static DNS on the printer through the embedded web server (EWS) by entering the printer's IP address into the address bar of a browser on a computer.
Once that computer displays that page click on the Network tab.
Then look in the column to the left and find the Wireless section
Click on IPv4
Then on that page look at the 2nd section that is labeled DNS Address configuration
Change the radio button to the manual option
Then for the manual preferred fill it out and make sure it reads 8.8.8.8
Secondary should be set to 8.8.4.4
Then hit Apply
Read the next screen carefully. That message with the "OK" button below it is one that states to click that button to undo the changes you just made. Just navigate away from that page by clicking on another tab.
Then reattempt to connect to web services.

My iMac can no longer print to HP 6700 since OS 10.9

My iMac can no longer print to my HP 6700 printer. This happened after I installed OS 10.9 The rest of my family has PCs and they have no trouble printing at all, so I don't think the printer is the problem. My husband keeps saying get drivers from HP. The HP website has no listing for OS 10.9. I just purchased this printer a few months ago. Is there anything I can do to get it working again?

Hi btysmom
I would like to help. I have spoke with several customers who have upgraded to Mavericks and required information for printing and or scanning. Here is a link to the HP Forums I have posted some information I think will help.

6700 unable to connect

My HP 6700 no longer connects to my wireless network.
1. The wireless connection icon on the control panel indicates connectivity and provides network name and IP address.
2. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the print drivers.
3. Device Manager is normal ... no problems detected.
4. I have tried connecting it to two different computers in two different rooms, but no luck. Neither computer is able to see the printer.
5. Running Windows 7 64b Pro & Home.
6. Have tried also using WiFi Protected Setup ... results same.

Thanks for the detailed information!
let's try the following steps:
Ensure the printer is not located too far from your router, however ensure it is also not located closer than 2 meters from your router, 2-3 meters will be an optimal distance for testing..
Click the wireless icon on the printer, then click on Settings and select Restore Network Defaults. confirm any prompt and a confirmation should appear.
Click the wireless icon again and then click on Settings, click on Wireless Setup Wizard and reconnect the printer to your router, now check for any difference.
If the same persists, try unplugging your router from the power for 10 seconds, allow it 2 minutes to start and then turn the printer off and back on. may you see any difference then?
If the same persists, try updating the latest firmware by using a temporary USB:

OfficeJet 6700 Premium Problems after Windows 8.1 update

My Officejet 6700 Premium worked great wirelessly under Windows 7 to print & Scan. Since updating to Windows 8.1, I can print to the printer wirelessly (having set it up manually from the printer), but the software won't load and I can't scan. Setting up a network connection using downloaded HP software fails (it just says it failed, no error message), and trying to download the entire software package (which includes scan, which I need), also fails during step 1 of 4. I tried uninstalling all HP software first, but the same errors persist. I don't want to mess things up further (as I said, I'm able to print wirelessly now), but I really want to be able to scan to the computer. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello mfrank1,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having some printing issues since you upgraded to Windows 8.1.
I do have a few troubleshooting steps that we can try to resolve this issue.
I first suggest that we uninstall the old software and drivers. I realize that you have already attempted to do this but I still would like to try it again but this time using the following document: Uninstalling the Printer Software.
When you stated that you have the printer connected with a direct connection using wireless, is this with a Bluetooth connection? Do you have a Router that you are going through?
Once the software is uninstalled, please restart the computer. Please disable any firewalls or anti virus protection before starting the next step.
When the computer is back up and running, please click on the following link for the HP Officejet Full Feature Software and Driver.
Please save the download to the Desktop of the computer so that it creates it's own Icon. Double click on the new Icon and follow the instructions.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.

HP Officejet 6700 - scanning problem, "device is busy. please try again later"

I am using a windows laptop (Lenovo Yoga II). I have an HP Officejet 6700 printer/ scanner. The printing functions seem to work fine but the scanning function is now not working at all (worked previously).
When I use the HP Scan and Capture app is comes up with a message "Device is busy. Please try again later". I have installed the full software and also run the HP Print and Scan Doctor and it fails the driver check even after a full restart of both printer and laptop.
I have tried everything wirelessly and also connecting the laptop to the printer via USB and nothing seems to work.
When I try to scan direct from the printer/ scanner to the computer (ie. using the panel on the front of the printer) it recognises the computer but doesn't scan and suggests that the "scan application on the computer is currently in use".
I have McAfee LiveSafe running and also tried switching that off but didn't seem to make any difference.
Any ideas welcome. I really need to scan some things today and this is very frustrating.

Keep hp 6700 in good shape: automatic print quality diagnostic page every week?

Hi all,
I've recently bought the HP Officejet 6700 Premium, and I'm concerned about keeping it in good condition, since I had to replace my previous canon printer because of a stuck printhead (the photo black one, I didn't used it for a long time).
Since I don't print much (but I'm using the ADF scanner a lot), and other family members prints sporadically, most of the time in black and white, I would like to setup an the printer to automatically print a diagnostic page every week to make sure everything is alright.
Using eprint, IFTTT and google calendar I could automatically send a file to print (I already set up the printer to wake up a few minutes before the calendar event) with black and color bars (someone suggest to print the google homepage since it has many colors but uses little ink).
Is there any chance I can directly print the print quality diagnostic page (so I can fully diagnose a problem if it occurs)?
Thanks for the attention
Cheers from Italy!

Hey,
To clarify for you and answer your new questions on the printers self maintenance.
The maintenance cycle occurs randomly. It will occur after any power up, after print jobs(not every one) and any time it "think's" printhead health is poor. As mentioned above the printer to does have to be powered on for this to occur.
You can if you'd like still print off the odd test page just to check, once a month would be adaquet.
If you want to be saving power and are turning it off, then you would want it to be at least powering on and running the automated service that occurs weekly.
I hope this clarifies everything for you. Thanks for your posts.

Scanner not working hp officejet 6700

I have an Officejet 6700 Premium Printer.. When I hit scan to computer, it says no computer found. I connected the printer to the computer with a USB cable and hit scan but window says waiting for scanner.. Printer works wirelessly w/ computer but is sporadic and sometimes have to restart printer to get it to connect wirelessly to computer.. tried to download software from hp but cant open the dmg file in my download file. Error message says Officejet series 6700 image not recognized.

Hello ramblindan,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with scanning to the computer.
I also see that you had the printer connected on a wireless network and then attempted to scan over USB. When the connection is changed from wireless to USB without adjusting the software, this can cause communication issues.
I have a few steps that we can run through to troubleshoot the issue.
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 also suggest that we remove the usb cable from the printer and the computer and leave it off.
Please click on the following link that troubleshoots when the Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection.
If this does not resolve the issue, please respond with which Operating System you are running.
Which Windows Operating System am I running?

Hp 6700 flatbed scanner not working

I have an hp6700 officejet printer. The flatbed scanner has stopped working. When I hit the overview button in black and white or in text mode, the overview scan bar comes up and completes but the overview doesn't show up in the window. The document won't scan in black and white mode either. It will, however, function in color mode. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hello ksz95,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you're having an issue scanning in black and white from the scan bed of your Officejet 6700. I will do my best to assist you with this issue.
To start out, I have a few questions for you.
Does this also happen if you're doing a scan from the ADF feeder?
Does this also happen when doing a copy?
When did the issue first occur?
Also, this document: Vertical Bands, Lines, or Streaks in Copies, Faxes, or Scans, may be helpful to you. I know from the title of it, it doesn't sound relevant to your issue directly, but some of the steps may help with resolving it. Please try it out and let me know how things go.

OfficeJet 6700 - "Unable to communicate with printer" message after install

I am on a hybrid network with Windows 7, 64-bit. Printer is hard-wired to the router (ethernet) but laptops are wireless. Installation doesn't allow for a hybrid option, just wireless or wired, so I installed as wired.
I just installed the OfficeJet 6700 - installed OK. I also updated software/firmware during the install process.
Windows' "Devices & Printers" recognizes the HP as being installed.
Printer is able to produce the network configuration page, etc. so we know the printer is functional, but when I try to print I get an "Unable to communicate with printer" message.
Windows' "Devices and Printers" troubleshooter thinks the driver is not installed, but as I mentioned, I just installed software from the CD.
UPDATE: I was able to install & print without problems on my wife's Win7, 64-bit laptop. Something about mine seems to be the issue. Also, HP Print & Scan Doctor reports that everything checks out OK, but when I try to print a test page at the end of the good doctor's diagnosis, I am still "unable to communicate with printer."

Sorry this is so long, but I tried to be through in my testing.
Followed your suggested steps.
I had previously set a static IP address, but just to be thorough, re-set it again with the same address.
I unplugged the USB cord from the laptop.
I began with the device labeled "HP OfficeJet 6700 (Copy 1)," which was set as the default printer.
After entering the IP address & clicking Next, it searched the network and returned this message:
Additional port information required
The device could not be identified.
The device is not found on the network. Be sure that:
1. The device is turned on.
The network is connected.
The device is properly configured.
The address on the previous page is correct. (re: the page where the IP address is entered)
If you are sure the address is correct, select the device type below.
I selected Standard (Generic Network Card) and clicked Next.
Summary dialog appeared and I clicked Finish.
Clicked OK/Apply.
Attempted to print. Like before, it sent the file to print queue - then nothing.
Right-clicked on the "Copy 1" device and selected Troubleshoot. Returned the message: Make printer "Fax HP OfficeJet 6700 the default printer" - even though this copy is already the default printer. (Usually when the original copy is set as the default, this copy is automatically re-named "Fax HP OfficeJet 6700.") I chose "Apply this fix."
Summary page said "Troubleshooting has completed." I closed the troubleshooter and attempted to print. I closed the Devices & Printers window so it could refresh. Re-opened Devices & Printers. Now the default printer is named "Fax HP OfficeJet 6700." The other device is grayed out and is simply named "HP OfficeJet 6700."
Attempted to print. (I'm testing w/ Notepad and .txt files)
I have 3 choices in the Notepad's printer dialog box but only 2 devices showing in the Devices & Printers window:
~ "Fax HP OfficeJet 6700" - This is the default printer in the Devices and Printers window. I clicked on Print & rec'd an error message: "Send Fax - HP Officejet 6700. There is a problem communicating with the Printer. Check your USB connection & verify that the printer is ready." Notepad's print dialog box shows status as Offline. I canceled all documents in the print queue.
~ "HP OfficeJet 6700." When I choose this printer option, Notepad's print dialog box shows status as "Paused - Offline." I clicked on "Print" anyway, and like before, it sent the file to print queue - then nothing. This is the printer that shows as grayed out in the Devices & Printers window. I canceled all documents in the print queue.
~ "HP OfficeJet 6700 (Copy 1)." There is no printer by this name in the Devices and Printers window even tho' it shows in Notepad's print dialog box. Notepad's print dialog box shows status as "Ready." In Devices & Printers, when I right-click on the one labeled "Fax OfficeJet 6700" (the default device) and choose "See what's printing," 2 HP devices are listed - the one labeled "Copy 1" and the one labeled "Fax." I clicked on "Print" and like before, it sent the file to print queue - then nothing. I canceled all documents in the print queue.
I plugged in the USB cord again and re-ran the same series of tests.
~ "Fax HP OfficeJet 6700" - This is still the default printer in the Devices and Printers window. Notepad's print dialog box shows status as "Ready." The fax window opened, waiting me to enter the recipient's name, add a cover sheet, etc. I closed the fax window. The .txt file was in the print queue for the "Fax" device, so I canceled all documents in the print queue.
~ "HP OfficeJet 6700." When I choose this printer option, Notepad's print dialog box shows status as "Paused - Offline." I clicked on "Print" anyway, and like before, it sent the file to print queue - then nothing. This is grayed out in the Devices & Printers window. I canceled all documents in the print queue.
~ "HP OfficeJet 6700 (Copy 1)." Again, there is no printer by this name in the Devices and Printers window even tho' it shows in Notepad's print dialog box. This is one of 2 choices in the device labeled "Fax" - the default device. Notepad's print dialog box shows status as "Ready." I clicked on "Print" and like before, it sent the file to print queue - then nothing. I canceled all documents in the print queue.
Next, I used the printer's touch screen interface and turned the wireless connection off, leaving the USB cord plugged in.
~ "Fax HP OfficeJet 6700" - Status: Ready. The fax window opened, same as before. I closed the fax window & canceled all documents in the print queue.
~ "HP OfficeJet 6700 - Status: Paused - Offline. I clicked on "Print" anyway, and like before, it sent the file to print queue - then nothing. This one shows as grayed out in the Devices & Printers window. I canceled all documents in the print queue.
~ "HP OfficeJet 6700 (Copy 1)" - Status: Error. I clicked Apply, then Print. Again, this is one of 2 choices in the device labeled "Fax" - the default device. Like before, it sent the file to print queue - then nothing. I canceled all documents in the print queue.
Reconnected to the wireless network & verified that the IP address had not changed.
Tried again to print using "HP OfficeJet 6700 (Copy 1)" - Status: Ready. I clicked Print and again, it sent the file to print queue - then nothing. This is still listed as one of 2 choices in the device labeled "Fax" - the default device." Like before, I canceled all documents in the print queue.
Next, I right-clicked on the one labeled "Fax OfficeJet 6700" (the default device) and choose "See what's printing" and selected the device labeled "HP OfficeJet 6700 (Copy 1)." In the print queue window, when I click on "Printer, one of my options is "Set as Default Printer." As soon as I did that, the device in the Devices & Printers window was renamed as "HP OfficeJet 6700 (Copy 1)" - no longer named "Fax." I tried to print again. Once again, file was sent to the print queue but never printed.
