Hp officejet pro 8500 software will not install properly on windows 7

i have attempted several times to install the hp solution center specifically for scanning to
save to .pdf files. hp solution center will not install error message:
cannot hp solution center because your device installation is not complete.
please plug in the usb cable or rerun the setup program from installation cd
for a network installation

infofablok,
Try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:
http://goo.gl/Ujpib
It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on. If it does not help make sure to post any errors given by the doctor. Additionally how is the printer connected to the PC (USB/Network Cable/Wireless/Etc)? Is this our first install of the printer and was it working previously for any other functions?
Best of Luck!

Officejet Pro 8500 Premier will not install softare

I bought a new HP computer running Windows 7 to replace an old HP computer running Windows 7. The Solution Center software did not install. I have spent a total of 6 hours with two different HP reps and I still do not have the full feature software installed correctly. After my latest attempt using the support site instructions, have a huge paper weight that will not print and no Solution Center. Please help.

Hi @Jim_Cone ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read about your Officejet Pro 8500 Premier and not being able to install the software of Solution Center.
First, try to click the Windows icon, type services in the Search box, and then click or tap View Local Services. Scroll down to the Windows Installer. Startup type should be - Automatic, and Service Status should be - started
Restart the computer after this step and try installing again.
If that does not help you could try the Microsoft Fixit.
It would be helpful to know what they did try and did you receive any error messages.
Are you able to make a copy?
Did they try the HP Print Install Wizard?
Please let me know.
Thanks.

Officejet Pro 8500 A909a will not install

I've tried to get this thing installed using every option I could think of. USB isn't possible because the printer is located across the building from me. None of the windows machines here have any issue picking it up. If I try to use HP's installer it doesn't show up in the list. If I enter the IP it can't contact it. I can add it manually in System Preferences, but nothing ever prints. I know there isn't a network issue because I can go to the printer's webpage in Chrome and ping the IP. How can I get my printer working?

.2 OS updates later and I'm still having the same issue with this printer.

HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless - will not print green

I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless that will not print Green.
I have:
1. Cleaned Printhead using device cleaning command. All steps
2. Alligned Printer - get message 'Alignment failed. Refer to device documentation for details.' I see know documentation
3. Calibrate Linefeed
4. Unplugged device while it was on and then replugged restarted.
5. Unplugged device while it was on and cleaned magenta/cyan printhead (following instructions from your website explictly).
The Alignment failed message persists and it still will not print green. I have done some of the above multiple times.
I hope you can help quickly. I have a home office and this is putting me behind a lot!
If I need a new printhead, get one and it does not fix the problem, can I return it? How can I get a printhead quickly?
THanks! Kathy

I see that you are having an issue when it comes to printing in green. I also see that you are having some issues with aligning the printer.
I have a few suggestions and with any luck, hopefully get this issue resolved for you.
Please start off by making sure you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. I have a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but is meant for HP products in general. Please click the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
I also have a document that troubleshoots Fixing Ink Streaks, Faded Prints, and Other Common Print Quality Problems.

My Officejet Pro 8500 A910 will not print green anymore

I have a Officejet Pro 8500 A910 and it will not print green anymore. I have done the cleaning procedure and there is ink in every color. When I print the PQ Diagnostics report the green box i missing. What can I do?

Sorry to hear that you are having some issues when it comes to printing anything in green. I see that you have also attempted some steps in cleaning the printer. I am going to give you a document that gives great detail in troubleshooting Print quality / Defective printouts. This link has different documents that deal with print quality issues.
One other thing that could be affecting the Ink Delivery System is how you have the power cable connected. If you have it connected to a power bar/strip, please remove it and connect it directly to a wall outlet. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for all HP products in general. Please click the link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.

Officejet Pro 8600 Software Will Not Run

I updated my computer to Windows 7 and installed the software for my Officejet Pro 8600. Setting up and connecting the printer was not a problem. When I went to run the program it would not start. I downloaded the 64 bit program and went through the process of uninstalling the old program and installing the new software. And again, printing is no problem but the program still does not run.

Hi SonnyOhio,
Thank you for your reply.
I would try the following:
1.) Update Adobe. Adobe.
2.) Update Internet Explorer. Download Internet Explorer.
3.) Then try the using the HP software again.
If this doesn't work, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region. Country-language selector.

Hi Liam,
The installation CD that came with your 8600 will definitely not work with Windows 8.1 and is not same as the latest online download which you will need to install on Win8.1.
Are you running Win8.1 Pro 32 or 64 bit?
Also make sure you select the right model of your Officejet. There are 3 different models.

Can't install Officejet Pro 8500 A910 on the network in my Windows XP laptop

Everything installs normally except connection options fail to detect the printer when the network connection is selected. The prompt that follows for network type also fails when wired (Ethernet) is selected. Firewalls are turned off during installation.
The network printer can be seen by the HP Home Network Diagnostic Utility. Using the HP Home Network Diagnostic Utility to check connection indicates software missing, connection verified, and test print failed.
The Officejet Pro 8500 A910 Embedded Web Server can be opened from the web browser by entering the IP address.
Changing the printer port to the IP address allows the printer to work but does not enable all of the all-in-one functions such as scanning or running HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910.exe.
Turning the power off and back on to the printer, computer, and router did not fix the problem. Re-installing the software several times did not fix the problem.
The installation works normally with other computers on the same network that run Windows Vista or Windows 7.
So far, customer support has not been able to help.
This question was solved.

Resolved, not solved.
I talked to HP product support. The Officejet Pro 8500 A910 will not install on Windows XP (at least the Home Edition) when networked through a router. It will install through USB. I uninstalled the program and reinstalled it with only USB connected to clean out all the network printer/scanner information. Product support claimed it would install through an ether net cable connected between the printer and computer but this does little good if you need internet access.

HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g - doesn't install on Windows 8

I upgraded my HP computer to Windows 8 Pro from Windows 7.The HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g was running fine with Windows 7, but will not install correctly on Windows 8 Pro. I've tried reinstalling numerous times. Sometimes the installation appears to run correctly. Sometimes it never finishes.In the best case the 8500 will print, however Solution Center will not show ink levels and will not scan.It shows the message: "The scan cannot be performed because another program or computer is using the networked HP imaging device. Try again later" and the scanning programming does not start. Sometimes, the scanning program starts without the error, but then another error prevents scanning (don't have that message). Creating a PDF with the scan to network feature from the front panel of the printer creates a pdf file of 0 bytes. When the printer is “installed” and able to print, but Solution Center is not scanning, the Windows scanning does work and the scanner passes the HP Print and Scan Doctor test – sometimes. Sometimes the HP Print and Scan Doctor reports a registry problem when checking the scanning functions. The HP Error Reporting feature sometimes tries to send an error report to HP. The reporting program hangs at “initializing” and the error report never makes it to HP. I've been installing with OJ_AIO_P8500_A909_Full_Win_WW_140_408.exe. (downloaded twice)After uninstalling, I've used OJP8500vA909_Scrubber_14.exe - running uninstall.bat at least three times -- on some of the passes, the Install Uninstaller stops working.I've tried installing with startup programs disabled and non-Microsoft startup services unchecked in msconfig. The printer would not install using USB cable -- the installation hung (just one try). All other attempts have been using Wi-Fi. The printer and Solution Center work fine from other computers on the network - running XP and Windows 7. Any way to this printer working fully under Windows 8 Pro? Thanks

HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print docs from computer, but will print a test page.

HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print docs from computer, but will print a test page. I continually get a message that the computer cannot communicate with the printer.   Not only will it not print docs, it will not print web pages using IE 11 or Google Chrome.
I've used Print and Scan Doctor, it always reports there are no issues and prints a test page even though I can't print anything else.
Each time I want to print, I must reboot the computer. After reboot I have one chance to print.   This problem started February 15, 2015.
My operating system is Windows 8.1.   I have unintalled the HP software, rebooted, then reinstalled the software:
OJ8500_A910_1315-1.exe
HP Print and Scan Doctor - HPPSdr.exe
HPSupportSolutionsFramework-11.51.0049.msi
All versions were last downloaded on April 4, 2015.
I have a home wireless network (Ubee DDW366 router). All other devices in the house will print to the 8500A printer without issues: 2 Toshiba laptops, 2 Android phones, and 1FireHD.
The desk top is installed with a Netgear Network card I don't know the model, but I had it tested by a PC Tech to confirm that the card is working.   The card and Windows 8.1 were installed on January 3, 2015.
I have run virus scans and malware scans. Each time they show there are no issues with my desktop. What kind of desktop? Specifically made to my specs from store parts. . . no brand name computer. ASUS Motherboard P6X580 Premium. Now I will probably get hacked!
I am at my wits end. And it is frustrating when I need to make a print of something and the system locks up. I often resort to screen printing to a word document to save in order to reboot. . . .but then I lose all sorts of capabilites when I salvage what I needed. Also this is a time consumer.
This printer has served us well for two years and I have expensive cartridges waiting; another two rounds of refills.
Help?
Addendum: I can scan using HP Printer Assistance. I open the HP Printer assistant, it "retrieves" info from the printer, then I select "scan a document or photo" and the printer responds.   I have no trouble with scanning.
This question was solved.

Driver software will not install

When trying to install drivers for my Officejet 200 MFP it will get to 77 % and fail. it says to reboot and try again have tried several times but get no further. Loading on a HP Pavillion gt4

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I noticed that the driver software will not install for your HP Officejet 200 MFP printer on Windows 7. I am happy to look into this installation issue for you! What is your printer's Product/Model Number? (ie: HP Laserjet 200 MFP, etc.) To find your printer's Product/Model Number follow instructions in this link. Finding Your HP Product Model Number. As I am having a little difficulty locating the type of printer that you have. In the meantime, please try our HP Print and Scan Doctor, and let me know the outcome!

My HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 will no longer print aqua.

My HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910 will no longer print aqua. I just tried two new cartridges and when I clean the heads, no aqua prints. I get no error messages however.
One possible issue: Recently I used a new HP aqua print cartridge (940XL version) that kept stalling my printer. If my printer sat without printing for 10 minutes or more, the only way I could get it to print would be to shut down the printer and restart it. Then, as long as I kept printing, it worked fine. When I replaced the problematic print cartridge the printer works fine except now it won't print aqua. Could the problematic cartridge damaged something?
I looked at the print head and it looks fine. What is strange is that NO AQUA INK at all shows on the print head page.
What should I do? Help!

Hey @CWickstrom ,
Thank you for taking the time to post on the HP Forums today! Hope you enjoy the experience.
I recommend calling HP Technical Phone Support for this issue I believe you will be given options and help I can't.
If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
HP printers generally have a 1 year warranty from their purchase date, you can verify the warranty using the following link if you would like; warranty check.
I hope this helps.
