HP OfficeJet Pro L7680 all-in-one: Does it have internal stored memory?

Same question as the last post only for a differnet printer model (sorry for what may seem like a duplicate question - I'm just trying to be sure I don't cause myself a headache later).
 I have an HP OfficeJet Pro L7680 All-In-One (FAX/Scan/Print/Photo) printer that I'd like to get rid of it.  Before I dispose of it, and for security purposes, I'd like to know if there's an internal hard drive that could potentially be storing anything I may have copied, scanned or faxed.

Hello sixmil5, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! I see you have concerns about the printers internal memory.  The memory is automatically reset when the printer power is unplugged, so you should have no issue with personal information being saved.  Thank you for posting on the HP Forums and please let me know if you have any other questions.

  • HP OfficeJet Pro L7680 All-In-One

    I am considering deploying a wireless print server for my home - specifically, a Netgear WGPS606.  I checked with Netgear and the HP OfficeJet Pro L7680 is not listed on their printer compatibility list while dozens of other HP OficeJet models are found on their list.  Can anyone confirm if the L7680 can be connected to a wireless print server and if so, can you recommend a brand?  Thanks.

    Well, the wireless print servers (at least the USB versions) support printing only, not scanning.  The OJ Pro L7680 has an Ethernet connection, why not just plug it into the back of your router so that all computers on your network can both print and scan?

  • Officejet Pro L7680 All-in-One - printhead deficiency

    All my HP printers have been reliable work-horses. The exception is my L7680 All-in-One. When I first bought it, one printhead came damaged. I called and called and called, finally, just ended up buying one for which I was never reimbursed. Now, after several months, the printer just stopped printing. 2" of printing, then pages and pages of garbage text. Online trouble shooting revealed only Mac problems with garbage text, but I'm PC so that's not helpful. I spent nearly an hour online with tech support in India. After many reboots, power on and off, wiping this and moving that, my printheads were "damaged or missing." I just broke down in tears and kept asking to speak to a supervisor. Tech support kept trying to convince me that "now we've discovered the real issue." I think he was just steering me into difficulty, especially after he said "you just take your sweet old time."  I just spent $172 on new printheads to print out an 11-page fax that came in while I was troubleshooting. My husband insists we're buying Epson or Canon next time. Pity, huh? In summary, if you buy a L7680, just be prepared to keep replacing the printheads.

    I Agree, HP Machines have become unreliable and the Support is appauling

  • HP Officejet Pro L7680 All in one printer with leopard

    Greetings,
    Both my girlfriend and I print from home on this nice, newer printer that works great. There were a few bugs with Leopard once we installed it, but eventually it worked perfectly (for the last month or so) with my Macbook Pro. Today however I could not print and it showed up as an active printer. I recalled that when I was stuck in the past, I deleted the printer and then added it again and it worked....however today there is no printer showing up in the boxes. When I click the "+" sign, there is nothing in any choices. I am hooked up wirelessly and have a wireless hub and wireless cable internet. Basically most anyone with a mac could walk in my home and print and I like that. Now it seems my printer has "disappeared"...I did reboot the Mac and also the printer with no luck.
    Thanks in advance for any hints or tips!
    Jason

    Since you upgraded to Win 7 32 bit, you need to download and install the correct full featured software and drivers from the HP web site here.  Now try.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8610 All-in-One Printing Preference does not have Print Last Page First option

    HP Officejet Pro 8610 All-in-One printer:  Printing Preference missing Print Last Page First option.  Print lots of multipage documents.  Spending enormous amount of time resorting pages. 
    Prior to this printer?  .... grab printed stack -  staple  -  DONE! 
    Now?   Have to resort every document!
    Anyone out there have a solution?

    Reply to mkjohnson42. It doesn't matter what application I'm in. The option is NOT there. Just to confirm, I started from Word 2010, Excel 2010, a web page using Internet Explorer, Foxfire and Chrome. Plus, I did the old stand-by of going to Printers and Devices>Preferences. Under Preferences I have the choice to print on both sides of paper but NO Print Last Page First. I REALLY did check ALL of this before resorting to the Community. So, I really don't understand your question. Sorry.

  • Paper Jam error message due to broken gear on Officejet Pro 8500 all-in-one printer

    3 year old HP Officejet Pro 8500 all-in-one printer (haven't used it much). Keeps telling "Paper Jam" although there is no paper jammed anywhere (searched meticulously with a flashlight after watching HP's tutorial videos on how to clear paper jams). I started searching on the Internet and found a couple of related videos on Youtube that pointed me in the right direction:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMFW1RRlDHEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwbF2Vs_0gQ  I could hear a clicking noise on that area of the printer each time I turned it on, so I carefully took the black cap apart that was hidding the gear, and confirmed I had the same problem as in the youtube videos above. See picture below showing the white plastic gear part that has a large crack which causes the Paper Jam error message and renders the printer unusable. After Googling a little bit, seems like a relatively common issue and wonder why such a part like that is not made of a stronger material like metal (planned obsolescence maybe?). Does anybody know if there is a way of replacing the broken gear?  (I really care for the environment and I would like to avoid having to throw the relatively new and expensive all-in-way printer away) Thanks a lot in advance for the advice!

    Hey ,  Thanks for posting in the HP Support Forum.  I do see that a cracked gear in your HP Officejet Pro 8500 All-in-One Printer is impeding all functionality.  I would like to help you with this but that particular part is not replaceable.  I recommend you reach out to our tech support team to find out what servicing options you have available. You can click on the following link to initiate a case: www.hp.com/contacthp/
    Once you fill out the online form to create your case you can choose from different direct contact methods. I hope this helps. Regards, 

  • HP Officejet Pro L7780 All-in-One Will Not Print Blue Ink - It Prints Pink Instead

    HP Officejet Pro L7780 All-in-One -
    Issue:
    Blue ink will not print (It prints the color pink instead.).
    Actions taken:
    1.  Cleaned ink heads.
    2.  Replaced ink cartrige.
    3.  Reinstalled software.
    Sugestions by HP customer service:
    Purchase a new printer: Because the issue is software related - not reading the blue ink cartrige.
    Any suggestions or advice would be very much appreciated.
    Thank you for your time!
    Thank you.
    Sincerely,
    Ryan

    The cyan portion of the printhead may be clogged.  I would suggest running the diagnostics shown here.  If three levels of cleaning of the printheads does not resolve the issue you may need a new printhead.

  • Hp officejet pro 8600 all in one prints but won't scan

    I have recently moved house and changed my wireless router from BT to Virgin.
    I am running OS X 10.9.5
    I am able to print from my mac without issue, however, it has stopped scanning. I have managed to get it to work twice on isolated instances but it won't work consistently.
    I have unistalled the software and reinstalled via the HP download page but when I open HP Scan and click scan it asks me to choose which scanner - mine is selected, it then says preparing to scan and it does that for ages until it says it can't get a connection.
    My printe r is a HP Officejet Pro 8600 All-in-one N911g - I am not bothered that much about scanning from the printer to the computer (I have tried to enable this option and it won't let me) I just want to be able to open HP Scan and press scan and it scan on my computer.
    Any advice appreciated - thank you

    Hi there @Steph390 , welcome to the forums!
    I have some suggestions for you to hopefully correct the scanning issue you are having. Please feel free to reply back and let me know the results!
    1. Try power cycling the network devices:
    Turn off the printer and computer and unplug the router for 1 minute (do not press any buttons on the router).
    Plug the router back in and wait another minute, next turn on the printer and computer.
    2. Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system
    3. Repair disk permissions
    4. Restart your computer.
    5. Re-add the printer
    Once the printer is connected on the network, follow these steps to maintain the wireless connection, normally a static IP will help out quite a bit: Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection
    Good luck to you

  • Hp officejet pro L7590 all-in-one printers - 'door open' message

    We have a 1 and 1/2 year old HP Officejet Pro L7590 all-in-one . "Door Open" message would not go away even if all the doors are intact, or after we shut it down and turn it back on after 60 seconds. We could not print, fax nor copy. We talked to HP customer service which no longer support this series. How can we bring our printer back to work?

    There are at least three interlock switches that can cause this error.  One is on the door that covers the ink cartridges, one is on the top lid (covering the "guts" of the printer) you lift up to service the printheads and the third is on the back duplexer; if you don't have a duplexer, there should be a cover in place.  You'll need to check all three to be sure they're in working order. 
    I know the door covering the ink cartridges has a tendency to break off the little tab that keeps the door closed so that would be the first one I'd check.  The top lid that covers the "guts" of the printer also has a small tab that goes into a hole that activates an interlock switch.  If that tab is broken off, the switch does not get closed, giving you the error message you see.  I've seen this broken off also, usually from closing the cover when misaligned with the receiving hole.  If this one is missing, you can ball up a small piece of paper and shove it in the hole to activate the interlock switch.
    The 7590 is a great printer.  Much better built than the newer models and cheap to operate, IMO.  Hope you can get it working again.

  • On a HP Officejet Pro L7780 All-in-One printer, is there a toner and where is it?

    On a HP Officejet Pro L7780 All-in-One printer, is there a toner and where is it located? I've looked in Products and Supplies and don't see it but my printer is saying that it's low or empty.

    By now, you have probably discovered that the L7780 does not use a toner but cartridges.  It actually uses 4 HP 88's.  They are black, magenta, yellow and cyan.  Usually, black is the first to be replaced.  They can be found at Staples, Office Depot and Best Buy.

  • HP Officejet Pro L7780 All-In-One printer

    I am running Windows 8.1
    The printer status OFFLINE.
    It has done this in the past and I have been able to correct it by deleting and reinstalling it (at least back when I was running Windows XP and 7.  Possibly at that time it was the DHCP issue pointed out in a previous post.
    Now however, I can remove it and when I add it back, using Control Panel, Devices and Printers, Add a Printer,  it is recognized correctly on the network (shows the IP address I know is in the printer) but when I try to send a test page, I get a pop-up saying it is OFFLINE.  When I status it, it confirms it is offline.
    There is no indication at the printers display that it is offline and it shows it is communicating with the network.

    I can’t give you more than the info in my question about the model of the printer-HP Officejet Pro L7780 All-in-One printer
    I had been using this printer for several years and this has happened a few times in that it required me to delete it and reinstall—that just does not work now. This last time was after I had upgraded to Windows 8.1 however I did that several weeks ago and it has worked okay since then…this is the first time it has stopped working on 8.1 however
    Running Windows 8.1
    I tried connecting via wireless and also switched over to wired lan but got same results (Printer Unavailable)
    Used DHCP but get the same with static ip address

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 All-In-One Inkjet Printer

    Hello, I have an HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 All-In-One Inkjet Printer.  It started out working fine, but the touchscreen got lighter and lighter and would finally go out.  Now, I cannot see the screen at all and therefore am unable to use the printer.  I tried to delete the printer from my computer and reload the driver, but the driver requires that I use the touchscreen to initiate installation of the wireless capabilities and so forth.  Without being able to have the touchscreen light up, I am unable to see and follow the directions to hook it back up to the computer.  Any ideas?  Does HP make a replacement touchscreen for this product?  I bought this one because I have another one that works perfectly at home and was hoping to use this one at work.  Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.

    Hello there! Welcome to the forums @Wayne3
    I saw your post about how the display screen on your Officejet 8600 has gotten lighter and lighter until the display was unreadable. I have a few ideas in mind that might help you.
    Update the firmware on the printer with a USB cable plugged into the printer, and computer.
    Click here to download the firmware update: HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911a Firmware
    Try a power reset and ensure the printer is plugged in directly to the wall outlet, avoiding power bars and surge protectors. This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help greatly.
    Press the Power button to turn on the product.
    With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
    Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
    Wait at least 15 seconds.
    Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
    Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
    If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
    I hope the steps help you! If the screen continues to have the same problem, give us a call to see what your printer options are:
