HP OfficeJet Pro 8610 Cartridge problem

I just buy new cartridges for HP OfficeJet Pro 8610. Model of cartridges is 950XL and 951XL C,M,Y. It's all brend new and original cartridges. The problem is that when i install cartridges in printer the massage appear: " Older generation cartridge installed ". I spend a lot off money to buy this cartridges and it's very disappointing that i dont have my printer for work. Please HP, find a way to fix this issue that you made and sand me a working solution.

Hi,
What Warranty end date is listed on the cartridge? is it still listed as warranties or not?
Also have a look on the error message on the printer, which cartridge it refers to? it should list a colored mark with the specific cartridge identification (C/Y/M/K)
If the Warranry end date has passed, that means the cartridge will not be accepted by the printer and should be replaced to a current one... if that is the case I would suggest conacting the retailer and replace the ink cartridge.
You may check the following document which deals with this error:

HP Officejet Pro 8610 Catridge Problem

Bought a new HP Officejet Pro 8610 Printer. Setup Catridge shows continously "Catridge Problem" and later printed a test page and 2 other sheets while we were asleep. I decided, as a result of this accidental and unexpected printout, to buy a new catridhge set. New complete catridges were sent to me from the manufacturer itself, HP. I have correctly installed the catridges, and have repeated same step as instructed several times over. But annoyingly, this "Catridge Problem" will not go away. What should I do next. I had previously returned it to Currys and they said because I needed new set of ink hence the problem. Should I return it again or is their solution other than the one in their instruction book which is repeatedly failing....

Hi @Rose-Joe
I am sorry to hear about the troubles you are having with your Officejet 8610. The following document address cartridge errors, although the specific error you are seeing may not be mentioned, the document will guide you through the necessary steps to troubleshoot the issue; A 'Cartridge Missing' or 'Incompatible Ink Cartridges' Error Message.
If the issue persists, I recommend calling HP and letting the know the issue as well as the steps you have already completed. It may be helpful to even let them know you completed all of the steps in HP document #c04090902.
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.
HP will, at HP's option, either replace products under warranty that prove to be defective or refund the purchase price.
To find the “Warranty Ends” date on your cartridges, look in the following table for the date's location on each product. The date follows the YYYY/MM/DD or YYYY/MM format, where YYYY indicates the year, MM indicates the month, and DD indicates the day.
I hope this helps.

OS x 10.10.4 HP Officejet Pro 8610 Install Problems

I have Mac OS X 10.10.4 Yosemite and I'm trying to install an HP Officejet Pro 8610. I've downloaded the software but it gets hung up trying to install the printer and when I try to install it manually it says device not found. Is there any issue with the fact that I have OS X10.10.4? I've spent hours trying to set up this new printer and researching what to do and I can't find any answers. Help!

Hi @Tristanndres,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you cannot print in color from Mac OS X 10.6 to your HP Officejet pro 8610. I am sorry to hear this, but happy to help!

Can I use Replacement Printer ink cartridges for HP officejet Pro 8610

I recently purchased an HP OfficeJet Pro 8610. I previously had an 8600. They both use the same ink cartridges. I had just installed some remanufactured 950 XL and 951 XL cartridges in the old printer and tried to use them in the new printer. Of course I got an error message that cartridges weren't HP but the printer would still work. I would like to know if I can use other remanufactured ink cartridges with the new printer or if there is some way for the printer to allow me to use other ink cartridges as the HP cartridges are way over priced for the consumers. I hope there is a person out there that is conservative like me and tries to find the best bargains on everything. Your solutions would be appreciated. I waited on HP Support Assistant for 10 minutes with a dialogue I would be connected to a technician in less than a minute. They must have been on break or some other excuse, so I thought I would try this instead. Blessings. John Richardson

Hey @rockhoundjohn
Here's the thing, yes, you can refill your cartridges or use remanufactured cartridges, but you may run into problems.
QualityLogic, one of the world's foremost quality assurance organizations, tested the performance of HP inkjet print cartridges vs. remanufactured (refilled) brands. The results: original HP inkjet print cartridges far surpassed ink refills in both print quality and reliability.
Nearly one out of every six refilled ink cartridges tested was dead on arrival or failed prematurely
70% of refilled cartridges had some form of reliability problem
Count on HP original ink cartridges for consistent, worry-free printing. You may think you're saving money on remanufactured or refilled ink cartridges, but in the long run, the cost of wasted time, ink, and paper can more than make up the difference. - Source
Most people think, 'well of course that is what HP or an HP representative would say', but I have done some research and found that many others have too. Here is a perfect example of somebody who does not work for HP in any way and basically is a customer advocate (in my opinion) ; Should you refill your printer’s ink cartridges? HP says no (of course) By Matthew Murray
I found the above article interesting and genuine.
My personal recommendation is to buy the HP XL cartridges as they are more cost efficient, and be mindful in the printer you choose when buying an inkjet. The 8610 was a good choice. The expected page yield of the HP 950XL High Yield Black Original Ink Cartridge is 2300 pages. The regular size cartridge page yield is 1000, still good but the XL is by far a better value. Some of the Photosmart printers or Deskjets are great for what they are intended for, but do not have as good of a cost per page.
HP's recommendation; Keep in mind that page yield is just one component of cost, and that factors such as quality, reliability, productivity, and efficiency affect cost as well. Products that work reliably will ultimately save you time and money. When you choose an inkjet printer, make sure you consider your individual printing needs.
- Source
To summarize, again, yes you can refill the cartridges. The printer is not programmed to reject them. Sometimes the cartridges will not work and of course because they are non HP, HP would not be able to do anything to help. HP cartridges have a 2 year manufacture warranty; Limited Warranty for HP Ink Cartridges and Customer-Replaceable Printheads for HP Inkjet Supplies, this may give you comfort knowing HP stand behind their product.

HP Officejet Pro 8610 setup issues Is there a problem using a MIFI?

I just bought this HP Officejet Pro. After trying all day yesterday with your support team, it was suggested I take it back to the store. I did and have purchase another HP Officejet Pro 8610 and am having the same problems. The on button goes to sleep but I cannot push for it to wake, I must unplug it. In addition, I cannot get it to recognize the computer to scan unless I have it connected to the commputer so it can't be wireless.

I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post serial numbers and case details.

HP Officejet Pro 8610 setup ink cartridges not recognized

I just purchased an HP Officejet Pro 8610, and was following the setup on the printer, installed the ink cartridges as shown in the "movie" guide, and the printer seems to not recognize that I have installed the 4 ink cartridges. They are the 4 cartridges that came with the printer.

@jaycka
Welcome to the forums!
I have some of my own ideas that might help the printer recognize the ink cartridges.
Try this:
Removing the ink cartridges.
Unplug the printer.
Dampen a lint free cloth or cotton swab with bottled water.
Gently cleaning off the electrical contacts from the cartridges.
Wait for the contacts to dry.
Plug the printer back in and wait for the printer setup on the display to ask you to insert the cartidges and hopefully they'll be recognized.
If not, call HP directly to inquire about a replacement.

HP Officejet Pro 8610 - Error Code: " 0xc19a0013" (missing or failed printhead)

I purchased the printer (HP Officejet Pro 8610 e-All-in-one printer) in January, 2015. The printer functioned properly - copy, fax, and scan, until two days ago. Now, it does not print at all. Received an error code: "0xc19a0013" (Missing or Failed Printhead). An expanded version of the error code reads: "The Printhead appears to be missing, not detected, or incorrectly installed. Error Code: 0xc19a0013. The printer uses a removable printhead, HP Ink Cartridges 950 (black) and 951(cmy). I have used HP Support Troubleshooting recommendations: all software and firmware for this printer is installed; the HP ink cartridges are not low or empty; removed the ink cartridges from the printhead and reinstalled them.
There are multible steps in the troubleshooting recommendation, but I stopped at removing the printhead. Because of my technical inexperience, and there were too many ceveats (beware, caution, proper reinstallation, and etc.) with removing the printhead that could cause greater problems. So, I stopped at removing and cleaning the printhead. Also, used the HP Printer Scan Doctor for assistance. The tool for cleaning the printhead doesn't work. What troubles me most with the 0xc19a0013 error code is its explanation: The printhead appears to be missing, not detected, or incorrectly installed. I can use all the help I can get to understand what is going on with the error code that I have received, and how to resolve the malfunctioning printer.

Officejet Pro 8610 won't accept new ink levels

I love my new printer but of course, I have run into problems. Once I was warned about ink levels in some of my cartridges getting low, I went online and purchased brand new HP brand replacements. The printer report confirms they are HP despite getting some sceptisicm from a tech agent about the authemticity of the ink since I didn't purchases directly from HP.
In any case, I know how to replace the ink cartridges and have done so for the 2 colours needing the change - cyana and black. Now, the printer does not recognises that it has new full cartidges. The printer keeps warning me that the cyan and black are critically low. Eventually, I expect it will stop printing full stop.
This is annoying. It seems like some kind of sensor issue and the printer is not getting the signal.
I have shut down the computer and printer altogther and rebooted both, no luck.
I have done another alignment and then shut off and on again (both computer and printer).
Nothing seems to work. Please help and don't tell me I need to buy new ink cartirdges again. They clearly WORK as I can print with them but the pronter WILL NOT RECOGNISE the new full ink levels. I need to know the levels in order to know when to purchase more ink in time for the next dry out.

Hey @CanadaMona,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I would like to assist you with resolving the cartridge detection issues that you're experiencing on your HP Officejet Pro 8610 e-All-in-One Printer. I understand that you have already replaced the black and cyan cartridges to no avail. This issue does sound like it may be a printhead issue. The printhead is what reads your cartridges and controls the ink for going on the paper. If the printhead is defective it can cause issues with detecting cartridges. I'm going to run you through some troubleshooting steps to resolve this issue.
Step 1: Check the Printhead:
1. Place your fingers into the slot on the left side of the printer, and then pull to open the cartridge access door. The carriage moves to the left side of the printer. Wait until the carriage is idle and silent before you proceed.
1 - Slot for opening the cartridge access door
2. To the right of your black cartridge you will see the grey printhead latch. Please lift that latch.
3. Grasp the sides of the printhead, and then lift the printhead and pull it toward you to remove it. Please leave the cartridges in the printhead while you remove it.
4. With the printhead removed, close the cartridge access door.
5. Power off the printer.
6. Power the printer back on. Once the printer comes on it will give you an error indicating that the 'printhead is missing' or that the 'cartridges are missing or damaged'. At this point, open the cartridge access door.
7. Reinstall the printhead.
8. Ensure that you snap the printhead latch back down to lock the mechanism in place.
9. Close the cartridge access door.
Is the low ink message still displaying on the front panel of the printer?
If so, please proceed to the next step.
Step 2: Clean the cartridge contacts:
Find a clean, lint-free cloth (eyeglass wipes or coffee filters work well) that you can use to clean the cartridge contacts.
Press the Power button to turn on the printer, if it is not already on.
Place your fingers into the slot on the left side of the printer, and then pull to open the cartridge access door. The carriage moves to the left side of the printer. Wait until the carriage is idle and silent before you proceed.
Open the cartridge access door
1 - Slot for opening the cartridge access door
Push in on the front of the problem cartridge to release it, and then pull the cartridge toward you to remove it from its slot.
Remove the problem cartridge from its slot
With a clean, lint-free cloth (eyeglass wipes or coffee filters work well), wipe the copper-colored contact on the cartridge.
Copper-colored contact on the cartridge
Carefully reinsert the cartridge into its slot, and then push the cartridge forward until it clicks into place.
NOTE: Make sure that the colored dot on the cartridge label matches the colored dot on the carriage slot.
Insert the cartridge into its color-coded slot
Repeat these steps for the other cartridges, if necessary.
Close the cartridge access door.
Close the cartridge access door
Please let me know if the steps I've provided resolve your issue. Good luck!

HP Officejet Pro 8610 Add Printer issue on Mac

I purchased the HP Officejet Pro 8610 and cannot get it successfully set up on my MacBook Pro (operating OS X 10.7.5). During the "Add Printer" phase, I receive the following error message: "The software for this printer is currently unavailable. Please contact the printer's manufacturer for the latest software".

How to connect HP Officejet Pro 8610 to a Laptop that's not connect to the internet

Just bought the HP Officejet Pro 8610 all-in-one for the local Historical Society. Neither the laptop nor the printer will be connected to the Internet. The printer will only be used for printing reports, scanning images, etc.
I have just removed the instruction manual to familiarize myself with the connecting procedure but I notice there are several references that require internet access.
Is there a work-around that allows me to install/connect the printer without requiring access to the internet?
Thank you in advance for your help.
This question was solved.

Hi,
How many computer will be using the printer ? If only one the USB (you may have to buy a cable) is the way to go. You can also use wireless direct to print but this is not reliable:

HP Officejet Pro 8610 (Network)' is offline every morning

I am running Windows 8. I use IE 11 and Chrome on occasion. Every morning I have trouble "waking up" my printer. I get "HP Officejet Pro 8610 (Network)' is offline". Sometimes turning the printer on and off resets it but today nothing seems to work. I even updated drivers. The rest of my network (excluding printer usage) is working fine. I have not been on a public network so that is not an issue nor has anyone else in our household. I need to correct this every morning problem. Really, any time the printer goes to sleep I have this issue. I'm unsure if I can stop it from going to sleep or not since I can't even see it from any of our computers. Someone please help. I've been dealing with this about a month. I had previously purchased an Epson printer similar and it now sits in a box in my office because of similiar annoying issues. I previously had HP all-in-ones for about 15 years with no problems. This one is starting to make me wonder about the declining quality of HP printers. Please help as soon as possible. My son has a paper due Tuesday and can't print it. Thanks

Hello , Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand your Officejet 8610 is offline every morning and it seems like this printer has trouble waking up. I will do my best to assist you! Please follow this entire HP document on What is Sleep Mode? You can try updating the firmware, which should help, since your printer is losing wireless connection when it goes to sleep: 1) Press the right arrow on your printer2) Press Setup (Wrench)3) Press Web Services4) Press Printer update and check for update now Make sure this printer is plugged into a direct wall, not a surge protector. I just want to see if this makes a difference. Another option you have is setting up schedule on and off. This will help with the sleep mode, as you will determine what time you would like this printer to turn and off. Note-If you decided to go down this route, if you receive faxes all the time, schedule on/off might not be a good idea. If you set a time frame when this printer is supposed to turn off, then you will not receive a fax. Also, if ePrint is enabled, this feature will not work. 1) Press the setup menu (Wrench)2) Press power management3) Press Schedule On Yes and set the time frame4) Press Schedule Off Yes and set the time frame I just want to make sure that your printer isn't going offline because of your router, not by the sleep mode. Just in case, I will provide an HP document on Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection. This will allow you to set a static IP address. Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great night!

HP Officejet Pro 8610 - Extremely slow printing

Hello,
I have just purchased my new HP 8610 All in one printer. I have set everything up wirelessly. For some reason when I print documents it is extremely slow printing. I cant seem to find the problem for this. For a 5 page documents it could take minutes to print. Please help, thanks in advance

Hi nat1985,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that your HP Officejet pro 8610 is printing PDF files very slow, and I am happy to help you with this slow printing issue!
For further assistance, I will need to know the following information:
If you are using a Windows or Mac Operating System, and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
If the printer is connected, Wireless, Ethernet, or USB.
If the printer is able to make copies by itself.
If the power cable is plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.
If the printer prints slow from Notepad.

HP Officejet Pro 8610 Will Not Print

I have a new Officejet Pro 8610 which has been working fine but today it would not print. Everyting else still worked, the printer is detected by USB and all of the cleaning/ alignment procedures work from my PC as normal. Scaning a document worked OK as well. I tried to run a test print from the printer list on windows, this didn't work either. So I uninstalled the supplied software and reinstalled it again, still would not print. At this point I installed the software on my old laptop and connected if by USB again and it worked fine, printed straight away. The only difference in the install was when selecting which additional programmes to install, one said it was already installed even though I had unistalled the software before. That programme was the Product Improvement Study which I can't get rid of. Everytime it is still there. Is this causing my problems and how do I get it off my PC as I am unable to find it anywhere to remove it. Any help would be appreciated.

no one answered this questio for me or even gave me advice....
I got it to print from explorer but not chrome .So for some reason it decided to stop printing from chrome all on its on.Not sure how long it ill print from ie but we'll see .thanks for no advice

Followed all the steps, uninstalled and reinstalled with software from hp site 7 hours worth. Router on/off, firewall on/off etc. 2) Installed not wireless but with a usb cable, this can be done however scanner and copier work but no pinting. Testprint also doesn't work, the internal test print does. Scan doctor said that it was a software problem that could not be solved by said doctor and to uninstall and reinstall the software. Freaking sick of doing that as it does not work. Also installed the basic driver to see if this works, same story, no printing. Laptop is from 2007 with windows XP. I really need to print for work and cannot spend another full day troubleshooting this monster. Either wireless or with usb cable, i dont care....... Please help!!! Thank you Mar

HP Officejet pro 8610 not connected

I have a new modem and separete Duel Router. Router is Lynksis EA3500 with 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz capabilities. Just bought a new HP Officejet Pro 8610 which I now have learned will only run on a 2.4 GHz system. When I connect the printer to the wireless system it shuts down the 5 GHz network. It kicks off all other devices. Those devices can join the 2.4 GHz, but can no longer even see the 5.0 GHz network. Not acceptable.
Do I need a different printer or can this be fixed? I don't understand why the printer won't run on the 2.4 but allow the laptops, desktop and TVs use the 5 GHz. Ridiculous.
I spent 1.5 hours on the phone with Lynksis first and they verified that the router is working perfectly. Then I spent 2 hours talking to HP in India and they just said sorry we will tell HP to make this printer capable for 5.0 in the future.
Not good - ready to return the printer. Any other option???
This question was solved.

First, I'm glad to hear the problem is solved. It also points out a significant problem with third had troubleshooting.
It also reminds me of a time when I was trying to help a customer over the phone (long before we could remotely login to client computers.) I spent a hour or so with this customer trying to figure out the answer to her problem. I eventually jumped in my car and drove over to the customer's office. In the middle of the screen was a big message that answered the problem. When I asked the customer why she didn't tell me about the message, she replied that she didn't believe that it was relavant.
I am surprised that HP even had you change the bandwidth on the router. The defaults nearly always work fine. 802.11 AC uses a wider bandwith than 802.11 G or N. The thing is, the bandwith change is all automatic.
