HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Premium and OS X 10.8.3

Hello,
I had my HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Premium set up to print to a network folder and after the recent updates from Apple this week for the HP drivers I can no longer scan documents to the network folder. It now says Incorrect Credentials. It was working prior to the update. I have tried resetting the settings and no luck. I can scan to the computer directly but cannot scan to the network folder. Any ideas?

@sthawkins5 - your problem with scanning to a network folder is really advanced and I will do my best to help by providing two links instead of just one. I have this main HP document about "How To Setup Scan To Network Folder" and should cover the basics. But for the advanced user, here is a thread that relates to exactly what you are having problems with: "Scan To Network Folder on 8600." Read through this and tell me if it is of any assistance.
@ohmiss - you would not use bluetooth to print to this printer. "Email to printer" is called ePrint. You have a little icon (paper with circle behind it) in the upper-left hand corner of the touchscreen display that will walk you through how to set that up. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as Scan to Phone Number as this printer has an actual land-line plug in on the back of it and requires that to fax. If you want, it has a Scan to Email Wizard when you double-click on the printer icon on your desktop that will assist you in setting that up. You may want to contact www.eFax.com about purchasing a monthly plan that allows you to fax from your computer and after you setup ePrint, you can put your printer's email address in eFax "receiving email" section and when you get a fax it will print.
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.

Hp Officejet Pro 8600 Premium suddenly printed very slowly from PC

Hi, and thanks for any insights.
I have a client with an Officejet Pro 8600 Premium, and printing to this printer over USB has suddenly become very slow. The dedicated PC is XP with 2 GB of ram and only using 40 GB on a 200 GB drive. The printer has two trays, with tray1 dedicated to checks, and tray 2 for anything directed to plain paper. The printer is not connected to a network, but dedicatd to this PC. The PC is current with updates.
Checks print at the normal speed, and copying prints at reasonable speed, but whejn printed from the PC anything directed to tray 2 prints at a snail's pace . This is new behavior.
I have printed status pages and performed print head and allignment processes. Still, this behavior persists.
I looked i the event log and saw nothing that suggested an evident system issue. Windows update only shows Security Essentials updates for the duration during which the slowness started.
The PC is not acting strangly in any other way.
Any suggestion would be helpful.

Hi,
The information is very general, this applies for many HP printers:
Solution 1: Use a lower print quality setting
Solution: Check the print quality setting. Best and Maximum dpi provide the best quality but are slower than Normal or Draft. Draft provides the fastest print speed.
Cause: The print quality was set to a high setting. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
Solution 2: Check the ink levels
Solution: Check the estimated ink levels in the ink cartridges. NOTE: Ink level alerts and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low on ink message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the ink cartridges until print quality becomes unacceptable.
CAUTION: Wait until you have a new ink cartridge available before removing the old ink cartridge. Do not leave the ink cartridge outside of the printer for an extended period of time. This can result in damage to both the printer and the ink cartridge.
For more information, see: Check the estimated ink levels
Cause: The ink cartridges might have insufficient ink. Printing with depleted cartridges slows the printer. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
Solution 3: Contact HP support
Solution: Contact HP support for service. Go to: www.hp.com/go/customercare. This website provides information and utilities that can help you correct many common printer problems.
If prompted, choose your country/region, and then click Contact HP for information on calling for technical support.
Cause: There was a problem with the printer.
Regards.

Printing directly on CDs/DVDs on a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium printer??

I have the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium and was wondering if I can print on CD and DVD discs with this printer and How do I do this?? And if not how do I print on DVDs and with what HP product do I use for it??

HP does not currently produce any printers that can print on CD/DVD's which includes the 8600.
Take a look at the Epson XP-810.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium will not copy or scan.

Hello,
I have a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium that prints just fine however it will not copy or scan. When I attempt to copy a document it displays Starting Copy... on the printer but will not copy and must be turned off and on to use the printer again. When I attempt to scan it brings up an error box telling me to check all of my network connections.
I have already tried the services.msi fix and have ran hp printer and scannor doctor tool to attempt to fix my problem.
In the services.msi I found that all services dependant on (WIA) were already running and set to automatic.
The scan doctor found that It wasn't communicating with the drivers, which I then reinstalled, and restarted the computer. It then continued to have problems with the drivers and asked me to contact support.
Thank you for your time.
edit: The printer is also running the latest firmware and I have also checked my anti-virus firewall so that it is allowing the printer through network. (note: in attempt to fix the issue i have both a usb and network connection trying to get either connection to work).

Hi-
To make sure I understand this correctly, you are unable to do a copy at the device itself? This should function without the device being connected to a PC at all. if this is indeed the case, it sounds as if this is a hardware issue. I would then check with HP support on your product for warranty repair.

How to Change Wi-Fi Channel Used by Wireless Direct on HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium?

I would like to change the Wi-Fi channel that is used by Wireless Direct between my Lenovo laptop and my HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium to reduce interference from other nearby users of Ch. 6 in my condo complex. (I am not using a wireless router setup to connect to the printer.)
Is this possible? If so, how?

Ah... ok. You are using the Wireless Direct with the printer. You computer is wireless to channel 6. That is all you can do unless you changed the router's wireless channel which will only automatically switch on your computer.

How do i get the hp officejet pro 8600 premium to print from my ipad2 using airprint?

how do i get the hp officejet pro 8600 premium to print from my ipad2 using airprint? The iPad does not see the printer.

Hi RiverBirch,
What brand and model is your router?
First, connect your printer to your router.
1. From printer front panel, press Wireless>Wireless Settings>Wireless Setup Wizard and follow the onscreen instructions to successfully connect your printer with an IP address.
Secondly, connect your iPad to the same router.
1. Connect your iPad to the Internet and download the free HP ePrint Home & Biz app from the apps store.
2. Connect your iPad to the same network as the printer. Settings>Network.
3. Use the new HP Home & Biz app to print and scan photos or docs from your iPad!
Alternatively, you can also perform Airprint on the iPad thru the wireless network from the Photos menu in your iPad.

Hp Officejet Pro 8600 Premium - wireless home network printing from multiple devices

We have a wireless home network with several desk tops, lap tops and tablets using the network for internet access. There is only one printer in the home, our hp Officejet pro 8600 Premium. Right now everyone who has access to the network can print. We want to prevent printing from specific devices while allowing printing from others. How do I password protect the printer so that only certain devices may print? Or alternatively, remotely prevent devices from printing?

Well this is a little tricky. You have a 'home' network so we assume you want everyone to print went they want. If you are talking about 'guest' that come over and use the printer, the best thing is to get a router with a Guest Network which isolates your home network.
That being said there is no 'password' you can put on the printer , however you can add security.
Start/Devices and Printers/ Right click on your printer and select Printer Properties , select the Security Tab. Now you can set security.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium won't print wirelessly

Ok, I have been having this problem for about a month now and cannot seem to fix it.
I have an Officejet 8600 Pro Premium that I recently bought for my business to replace my old 6500. I love the printer so far but there is one problem that is extremely aggravating. Currently I have three computers connected to the printer, two running XP and one running windows 7. The ones running XP have no issues what so ever, but every few days the one running windows 7 just stops printing. In control panel I can still see the printer but the documents just sit in the print que. Same for when I try to print a test page through HPs software. The only way to get it to print again is to unistall the drivers and reinstall. Then it will print for a few days and then stop again. I don't know why this is happening only to the machine running windows 7 and not XP.
Also, whenever I try to setup e-print from the printer I get an error message saying "Unalbe to Connect: The printer could not connect to the server." I am not running a proxy or anything like that, and I'm not sure if these two problems are related.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Edit: Also I have ink alerts set only for when I print and scan to computer is disabled.

I have the same problem. I have the officejet pro 8600 plus connected to a wireless toshiba laptop running Windows 7 64 without any issue ever. It is perfect. I bought another officejet pro 6600 premium and connected it wirelessly to a HP Elite desktop at my other house. It works great for a few days then the computer can't find the printer. The printer shows the computer on the screen and has a blue wireless signal lit up. The only way to fix this is to reinstall the software which works great for a few days and then the same problem occurs. This has happened several times since I purchased it 2 months ago. I am a realtor and this is a huge inconvenience when I need to print things out for my appointments but have to re install the programs to do so.
Any suggestions please?

Officejet pro 8600 Premium pick motor stalled error message

I have the Officejet Pro 8600 Premium printer. I'm getting the message "pick motor stalled" after two and a half months of stellar use with this printer. There is no paper/print jam. I'm using the same paper I have always used. Help, is this a problem with this model?

Also having this issue with an Officejet Pro 8600 Premium too. Bought it in May 2012 to replace an Officejet 7410. Running on a wireless network to a Win 7 32 bit laptop. Started getting the popular Pick Motor Stalled error after two months of ownership of the 8600. Have been able to get the printer to reset this error in the past with combinations of powering down, running diagnostics, and having the printer execute either a print head clean routine or a print printer status routine - that is up until this weekend. Trying to print tax returns so I can get them in the mail by the 4/15 deadline tomorrow and, of course, the Pick Motor Stalled error shows up again. Spent several hours trying usual tricks, this time nothing works. Finally, as a desperate last resort, I powered down the printer and completely removed the second printer tray assembly from the bottom of the printer. Powered back up running only the single main tray and that did the trick. Printing restored.For those that might conclude there was a paper jam on the machine and removing the second paper tray assembly fixed it, trust me. I have been in and out of that machine. There was no paper jam. There is some glitch in either the electronics or firmware, or both on these printers that is causing all the Pick Motor Stalled errors that the user community for this HP device has been dealing with.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus and HP Pavilion dv7-7073ca

1. HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus and HP Pavilion dv7-7073ca
2. Operating System
Windows 7 64-bit
3. Error messsage: Blue Screen and Crash. Can't PRINT Wirelessly or Wired + Blue Screen Of Death when printing a document with Microsoft Office. It then restarted the entire computer.
It might have said something about BIOS
4. Any changes made to your system before the issue occurred
No, all I did was install the software that came on the Officejet disc
I don't know what to do. I tried to create an adhoc network, and that didn't work. I tried to connect it via usb cable and the whole computer crashed. I tried to set up a router and then it would not connect to the internet.
Why is this design so flawed? Every wireless printer I have had does this and will not work easily or permanently. You should just be able to connect instantly to your computer and voila, you can print. But nothing seems to work. Mind you, the constant variable here is me, and I have little patience for spending days trying to get this to work. But I am a student, and this is holding back valuable study time.
What do I do???
Any advice appreciated...can someone tell me step by step how to do this? I followed the instructions in the books, but ended up well...you know, so that's why I'm here.

I had the same issue, officejet pro 8600 plus causing blue screen of death on my new computer. After several frustrating months trying everything, I fould that my new computer has 3.1 USB ports, this printer doesnt like them, they need a 2.1 USB port.
For whatever reason USB ports are not backwards compatible, so I plugged the USB cable into the 2.1 port and no more crashes.
3.1 ports are blue, 2.1 ports are black ( the plastic inside)
Hope this helps

New (bought last year) Officejet Pro 8600 Plus and I can't get the ADF working.

9 month old Officejet Pro 8600 [CC78E4]
Product Number: CM750A-64001
Serial Number: CN1CD1K1CV
ADF used rarely and on the occasions I have tried it it always gives me this problem - even for a copy as opposed to a scan
ADF not working on 5 page document
Tried using 1 page
always get "Reload original in the automatic document feeder (ADF) and try again@
either from the front panel or from the HP scan utility on my PC.
I have been through the process recommended on your support pages for resetting the printer (remove power cord)
Please HP experts come to the rescue!

Hi - You can find the different UK numbers at this location:
