HP Officejet 6600 - Does Not Print

My iMac is 10.6.8
I've had the HP OfficeJet 6600 for about 6 months, and have printed maybe 100 sheets of paper on it. The last 2 months it has been increasingly slow in beginning to print. Today, it won't do it at all.
All ink cartridges are above 80% (3 of the 4 are full), and the printer shows up on the wireless connection on my computer, and the computer is reading all the print levels/printer info.
When printing, the dialogue box says that the document is printing, but nothing happens with the printer. I've waited 10 minutes on several attempts and nothing happens.
I've followed each troubleshooting step here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02205477&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
Nothing is working.
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
While the printer connected to your network, can you see the pritner listed as Bonjour or not?
Try adding the printer by IP and check if that may make any difference:
Under Print & Scan click the plus sign.
Click the IP tab.
Select the HP jetdirect Socket protocol.
Type the pritner IP address into the address field.
You may locate the IP by clicking the wireless icon on the printer.
Now try printing using the newly created print queue.
Additionally, please let me know your router brand and model in order to better understand what may cause the problem.

OfficeJet 6600 - Apps not printing

I have tried everything, but reset my router. I see that as pointless because all my other wireless electronics have no problem with network connections. I have tried printing from the ePrint site directly and from my printer. I've had no issues for months, but after upgrading to HP Connected I can't print my app stuff. I don't get any error messages or anything. I choose an app (any one of them), choose Print Latest, choose No for scheduling, then hit ok. Everything seems fine, except nothing happens. What is up with that?

Sorry for the delayed response. If you live in North America and speak English, you can contact HP at 1-855-785-2777 to get live support for your Cloud printer and the web-services such as print apps.
I was able to test the NBC News print app on another Officejet 6600 and it printed. Make sure you are not on a guest network and ensure the app you are trying to print is also available at www.hpconnected.com just as a second reference. If you are not afraid of losing your customized email address, you can go into your ePrint settings and remove web-services then re-enable them to see if that helps. You will have to add the printer code again at the website but this should allow you to print them.
Let me know if that doesn't work. If not, is there a specific app you are trying to print? I can see if it is a problem with that specific one.

Officejet 7310xi does not print two-sided automatically after installing Windows 8.1

When I first purchased my Officejet 7310xi and installed it on my Windows XP desktop PC it worked fine printing two-sided documents automatically. I recently purchased a new desktop PC with Windows 8 and upgraded it to Windows 8.1 and downloaded and installed the Officejet software drivers from the HP download site. But now the printer will not print two-sided documents AUTOMATICALLY -- when this option is selected, I get a pop-up screen telling me to remove the documents from the out tray, turn them around, and reinsert them in the feed bin, i.e., it acts as if I requested two-sided MANUAL printing.
This question was solved.

Hi,
Make sure the Automatic Duplexing option is enabled:
Enter Control Panel > Devices and Printers.
Right click the printer icon, then click Printer Properties.
Click the Device Settings tab.
Set the Automatic Two-Sided Duplex Accessory as installed and click OK to save the change.
Now Automatic Duplexing should become available.

Officejet 7000 does not print from Autocad 2011

Hi
I couldn't print on an A3 paper any cad drawings from Autocad 2011 software. However, if I printi it to pdf, and open PDF and give a print on A3 it works. A3 size printing is working on other softwares - Word, Excel etc but not Autocad 2011.
Please help.
regards
Shiva

First thing I would check is that both the printer software and Autocad 2011 software is current. For the printer, go here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=3883002&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&lang=en&cc=us
For the Autocad 2011 check these places. The first link below is the Autocad services and support page, with the updates 1.1 and 2 from the page's lower right corner being the next 2 links:

HP Officejet 6000 Wireless - Does not print black correctly.

HP Officejet 6000 Wireless - Does not print black correctly.
Previously the printer was printing fine.
This evening I printed a diagram I made in MS PowerPoint. The diagram contained black and red text along with black, red, and blue lines. When I took the printed page from the printer, all the black items looked faded. Instead of black, they printed as a light, faded gray. The red and blue printed correctly.
Another user of the printer printed some documents around the same time. These documents had nothing but black text. Every page this user printed showed up completely blank. The black was not even faded. There were no signs of anything being printed on the pages at all.
It seemed strange that one print job would print faded black and the other printed nothing. Considering the possibility that the ink was low, a new black cartridge was placed into the printer. The exact same results occured. My diagram printed correctly except for the fact that the things that were supposed to be black were coming up as light gray. Once again, the documents printed by the other user came up completely blank.
I ran a print test on the printer. It printed a Windows logo with the word "Windows" below. The logo printed correctly. The text showed up as a light, faded gray.
A third user printed an Excel spreadsheet. The cell borders were printed as a light gray. Nothing else printed. Everything in the spreadsheet was supposed to be black.
The third user also printed a recipe from MS Word. Most of the text showed up as a light, faded gray. Some text did not show up at all. I could not see any correlation between what showed up in faded gray and what did not show up.
It seems to me that if something was wrong with the cartridges, it would either always be faded or not print at all. I can consistently get some things to print faded and other things to not print at all. Color always prints correctly.
The print jobs were sent to the printer wirelessly from three different computers. Two computers run Windows 7 (x64). The third computer runs Windows XP SP2.
As far as I can tell, nothing was changed or done differently between now and the last time something printed correctly.
Might this be a driver issue? Since the printing consistently prints one way for certain files and another way for other files, I don't see it as being caused by hardware. If it's not a software issue, what could possibly cause the effects I described above?

My HP officejet 6000 E609n wireless does not print on envelopes.

My HP officejet 6000 E609n wireless does not print on envelopes. When I send an envelope address from the Microsoft Word envelope app, the envelope loads and then it is send through the printer without printing on the envelope. If instead of loading an envelope I load a plain sheet of 8x10.5 paper it will print the address as it should (side ways and on what would be an envelope). I have had no problem printing envelope to my old DeskJet 930C with this Word envelope app.
I load the envelopes without the 8x10.5 paper and the paper guide moved over to the edge of the envelopes up which are against the right side of the load table as indicated on the tray guide.

After many frustrating and fruitless attempts to solve this problem, including updating the drivers and following so many bits of advice from so many sources including contacting HP customer services by phone and email (who have not, so far, shown the courtesy of acknowledging my enquiry), I seem to have overcome the problem by cutting a piece of A4 paper along its length to a width, which when added to the envelope’s height, equals the width of an A4 sheet. For example, I use DL envelopes which have a nominal width of 110mm so the width of the piece of paper cut from A4 (which is 210 mm wide) is 100 mm. This strip is then temporarily attached to the envelope by piece of low tack tape (such as masking tape) running along and joining the paper and the envelope tabs. I feed this assembly of strip and envelope into the printer in the default position, (i.e. the envelope on the right hand side of the tray, face down with the sealing tabs on the left). The printer seems to treat this assembly as a piece of A4 and prints the address etc on the envelope correctly. The envelope is then easily detached from the tape without damage and I have found that this works many times as sufficient tack remains on the tape. I know this sounds a little complicated but it soon becomes a simple task.
The HP Officejet 6000 printer has previously worked splendidly, printing envelopes from the Word 2007 envelopes function running on XP but has only recently malfunctioned since changing to Windows 7. For the record, I have also tried to print envelopes using the Word compatibility mode without success.
