  • I have a Office Jet 6600 and cannot get it to print. I have power to the monitor.

    I have an HP Office Jet 6600 and it stopped printing. I use HP ink 932xl and 933xl. The message on my  computer is: Missing or failed print head. The print head appears to be missing, incorrectly installed or incompatible. The monotor states: There is a problem with the printer or the ink system. Turn the printer off, than on. If the problem persis contact HP. So please tell how I can get my printer to work. This problem start about 3 weeks ago but I was out of the country  for 12 days. I rebooted the desk top and ended up with 1 print job but than this famous message became trapped in my computer. 

    Here are the specs for your HP Pavilion p6-2127c Desktop Computer. Based on the specs, your computer has one DVI-D (digital) out and one VGA (analog) out. No adapter is going to change the DVI-D to VGA.
    (#1) - DVI-D (digital out only)     (#2) - VGA (analog out only)
    Using a VGA analog "dual tail adapter" won't work either. With both monitors connected to the VGA port, your computer won't be able to identify the correct monitor settings because of communications conflicts between the devices. This setup will only work with one DVI-D monitor and one VGA monitor.

  • Help! Error HP Office Jet 6600

    I used my HP Office Jet 6600 All in one; yesterday to make several copies and it worked just fine. Today when I went to make some copies, the printer read "Error: There is a problem with the printer or ink system. Turn th printer off, then on. If problem persists. Contact HP" I have done this numerous times. Nothing, I contacted HP and all the help/advice that they could give was try cleaning out the ink cartridges. I also did this, but that did nothing.  So I am left with problem. has this happened to anyone? Anyone have any suggestions?

  • I have a hp office jet 6600. It will not wake up to receive e-print.

    I just bought a office Jett 6600. It will only recieve E-print when it is awake. The print will not wake up to receive eprint. Not much good if i am traveling. <script id="JSScriptForDynamicControls" type="text/javascript" src="https://www.billeo.com/page/js/amex/insitedominspector.js"></script>

    I would make sure printer is plugged directly into a wall outlet. I would also make sure that printer had latest firmware update.

  • HP Office Jet 6600, cost of 933 HP ink cartridges same for regular and xl?

    Hi,
    The XL cartridges are physically same size with the normal cartridges, only THE volumes of ink inside are not the same. Normally the volume of ink inside a XLcartridge is more than double the volume of ink inside a normal cartridge.
    Hope this helps. Note: they must be physcally same size otherwise they won't fit.

  • My iPad will not print to my wireless hp office jet 6600 anymore

    MY iPad will no longer print to my wireless hp office jet 6600 printer

    Hi Everyone,
    Don't spend too much time trying to figure this out.  Apple has total control of what apple products can do.  Since the upgrade to IOS my 6600 HP printer no longer is recognized by my Ipad.  Just to add insult to injury my Iphone's wifi is now greyed out and I can no longer use wifi.
    I didn't see this coming but think about how apple can force you to upgrade to other products by simply limiting a device's capability through an operating system upgrade.
    I made an appointment with an Apple genius today and they said "Sorry this is a hardware issue (Iphone) and you will need to upgrade."  Of course I will, a $700 phone or Ipad should only last a couple of years... right?
    I am not upset but I will be more critical in my future purchases of Apple products.

    Hello rcblv. In order to assist you, I need to determine if the issue is hardware or software related. I want you to make a photocopy and perform a printer status report. I've included a link to the manual of this printer in case you need it. Let me know as soon as possible what the results are. I'm only here to help!

  • Scanning to computer from HP Office jet 6600

    I have a Mac OS X 10.9.4. It will not allow me to scan to my computer. I get a notice that Scan to computer cannot be enabled. I have tried downloading from HP, and still no luck. Any ideas or instructions on what I can do?

    Hi there @JellyBean13 , welcome to the forums!
    I read your post about how you cannot scan from your Officejet 6600 to your Mac running 10.9. I have a few ideas that might help you.
    Try these steps:
    Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system
    Repair disk permissions
    Restart the Mac
    Re-add the printer (do not use the AirPrint driver)
    I hope that helps, have a great weekend

    Hi helenhunt,
    I would like to help you with this.
    I have located a document I believe will be helpful. Although the title is 'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the Printer Will Not Print, the solutions will help resolve the symptoms you are experiencing.
    Solution 1 in this document suggests using the HP Print and Scan Doctor. This is a great place to start because
    the Print and Scan Doctor diagnoses and helps resolve common printing, scanning, and connectivity problems, including:
    Connectivity :
     USB: Verifies that the USB connection from your computer to the HP product is working correctly.
    Network: Verifies that the network connection between your computer and your network is working correctly.
    Device Status Test : Checks for device errors such as out of paper, paper jams, carriage stalls, and paper feed issues, and then provides instructions for fixing the error.
    Driver Check : Checks for missing or corrupt driver files.
    Device Manager : Checks for problems in Device Manager that would prevent printing.
    Device Online : Checks if the product has been paused or set to offline, and then sets the status back to online if necessary.
    Print Queue : Checks for and clears pending print jobs in the print queue (a log of print jobs waiting to print).
    Port Match : Checks the port settings for the HP product.
    Device Conflicts : Checks for conflicts with other drivers, such as other printer brands.
    Ink Issues : Checks the cartridges and ink levels for issues that affect print quality.
    Print Settings : Checks and adjusts the print quality settings.
    Test Print : Prints a test page for print quality evaluation, and provides options for cleaning and aligning the printhead if necessary.
    Scan Tests : Checks the scan mechanism, drivers, and registry entries.
    Please let me know if this resolves the issue, or if you require additional assistance, thanks.

  • How can iSync my iPad to my hp office jet 6600 so I can print from my iPad

    I am trying to sync my iPad with my hp office jet printer 6600

    Hi,
    You can't iSync your iPad to your printer, full stop. If you wish to print from your iPad you need to connect them (iPad and printer) on a SAME network. And because your printer is not on the following list:
