HI Geoffery,
Yes your printer is able to print labels.
Here is the link to your manual talking about the details on printing labels. Take a look at page 162.
Hope this is helpful.

Hey Roy, Welcome to the forums. I recommend checking out this support document: 'Paper Jam' Message Displays on the All-in-One
This should get you back up and running. If not post any new findings and we can go from there.
Best of luck!

Yes.
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
3. VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
5. VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system.
See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows. You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

Just adding a point to Paul's suggestion of suppliers. (Congrats on getting to 5 figures, Paul)
In North America contact OWC …        Upgrade Apple iMac Memory
In Europe contact Crucial.com …       RAM Memory Upgrade
Both companies have facilities to guide you and will recommend the correct memory package to meet whatever needs you describe to them.
There may be benefits buying from your own geographical location insofar as Shipping charges, Local sales taxes and Exchange rates. Check out the basic memory costs and do your sums.

My new Officejet Pro 8500a on a Windows XP machine will not print from the Internet.

I just purchased and installed an Officejet Pro 8500a all-in-one and everything seems to work fine except that the maachine will not print from the internet. I use Windows XP home and and the Firefox browser. The printer is connected directly to the computer, and is not directly connected to the Internet or any other network.

The Officejet 8500 printers take individual ink cartridges (IIC); that machine requires that all cartridges be installed to ensure that the printhead does not get damaged. Ink is used in the printer not just for printing, but maintain the printer and the printhead. One can reduce the amount of color ink the printer uses by changing the printer settings to Grayscale or use black ink only. Page 34 of the user manual shows how one can change those settings when printing documents. For further information on how ink is used in the printer; one can look as this page here where it goes into detail on the different ways that ink is used in the printer.
I would just replace the color cartridge that the printer indicates needs replacing when the machine alerts you to low ink. I would not replace all colors at once when only one is in need of replacing.
I hope that this helps.

HP OfficeJet Pro 8500A Plus - By passing expired Color Cartridges to print only in Black printing.

Hi,
Problem:
fIt seems that this model of printer has a built in protocol which makes the printer inoperable if any of the colour cartridges are past their expiry date. Attempts to print solely in black are also being prevented because of this.
Does anybody know how permit black printing only without the need to replace colour cartridges rarely used.
Apple Mac PCs and laptops are connected to the printer wirelessly.
I look forward to any info which rids me of this frustrating problem.

Hello popkc, and welcome to the HP Forums.
I see you are looking into ink options. Due to the design of the printer, it does require functional ink as to not cause damage to the print system. There is no way to override this.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums.

And you just like helping people?
That is just the way this forum works - users get help from other users and learn from others and like to contribute if they see they can help.
My latest challenge was typing in melodies and chords of songs I'd written on the piano. But using the Musical Typing in register C3 I inserted all the notes by playing on the imac keyboard (and written in the treble clef). The only problem is you cant insert the chords at the same time. Now I have an empty bass clef, which requires chords be inserted in register C2 and I dont know yet how to do that.
To fill in the chords: Join a melody track and a bass track, like this:
- Create a new software track and record the chords separately with musical typing.
- Create a new track and copy your melody loops there (just as backup, if something goes wrong)
- Do the same with the track containing the chords.
- Then select all loops in the copies of the melody track and the copy of the chords track and select from the main menu
Edit -> Join.
Now you should have a track that contains the bass as well as the melody and both staffs should be filled in the track editor, so you can print both at the same time.
However, there will be some notes assigned to the wrong staff - very low melody notes will appear in the bass cleff, very high chord notes will appear in the melody cleff - and I don't see how you could fix that in GB.
Good luck

Is the printer currently connected to the wirless network? Print a test page and check on if the printer has a valid IP address. Here is how to print the test page:
Load letter or A4, unused, plain white paper into the product input tray.
Press the Power button ( ) to turn on the product.
On the product touch screen, touch the Right Arrow ( ) to display the second navigation screen.
Touch Setup ( ) on the control panel display. The Setup Menu displays.
Touch the Down Arrow ( ), and then touch Reports .
Touch Printer Status Report . The self-test report prints.
Let me know if there is a IP address for the printer or if it says 0.0.0.0.
Thanks!

Officejet pro 8500A wireless radio is not functioning

Have an OfficeJet Pro 8500A. Wireless connection stopped working. Tried restarting printer, router, and computer per troubleshooting suggestions in manual. No joy. Wireless Network Test Report gives a 'Wireless Working' status of 'FAIL'. Troubleshooting results at top of report says "The wireless radio is not functioning. Contact HP Support."
I found a solution to this problem in the forum for a C7280. It is to reset the printer by turning it off, and holding the # and 6 keys while and a bit after turning it on. Later on, there is a comment by another user saying the reset solution also works for the Officejet 8500.
O.K. so I'd like to try reseting my printer, but don't know how to do it. There are no "keys" on this model. I've searched through the user guide (searched on the term 'reset' in the PDF version) with no results. Can anyone help by either telling me how to use the reset feature on the OfficeJet Pro 8500A, or another solution to the wireless radio not functioning problem that I can try?
Thanks,

Thank you for your suggestions. I appreciate your help.
I had previously verified that the wireless radio was on. The wireless radio test report confirmed it was on.
I had not used the network settings reset function as I was focused on looking for a "printer reset" capability. Based on your suggestion I used the network settings reset and then printed the HP Network Configuration Page. This confirmed the settings had been reset. However this test also checks for all available 802.11 networks. The report shows the number of networks discovered as 0. Based on this, I'm assuming the wireless is still not working.

Officejet Pro 8500A Plus can't scan to e-mail

I have an Officejet Pro 8500A Plus and Windows 7 32-bit OS and using Outlook 2010. I'm trying to scan to e-mail and am having no luck. From the printer interface I choose SCAN --> COMPUTER --> (MyComputer) --> E-MAIL AS PDF. It performs the scan, but then on my computer, I get the following error:
"The HP Scan application is unable to open your e-mail application and/or cannot attach the scan to a new email. Please check your email configuration and try again."
I've checked the configuration in CONTROL PANEL --> DEFAULT PROGRAMS --> SET YOUR DEFAULT PROGRAMS. I made sure that I selected Microsoft Outlook and clicked Choose Defaults For This Program. I then selected all Extenstions and Protocols and still no luck.
Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution? Thanks. You may be wondering why I don't just use the Scan to Email instead of scan to computer. Well, unless there's a way to import all 400+ contacts from my Outlook to the address book in the scanner, this is the fastest way for me to scan an item and send it as an e-mail to various people.
Thanks.

HP Officejet Pro 8500a problem with printing black ink

I have an Officejet Pro 8500a printer. When I print documents, it will not print anything in black ink. The colors work fine, but black just won't print. The printer claims that the black ink cartridge has plenty of ink, and when I shake it I can tell that there is something in there. So, I don't think it is an issue of the black ink being out. Is there a chance that something is blocking the ink from coming out? Any fixes to this besides buying a new ink cartridge?

Officejet Pro 8500a wireless printer hangs up when printing document.

I have an officejet pro 8500a wireless printer and it has been working flawlessly. Now all of a sudden it hangs up when sending a document to it. It will say "now printing", with the red "x" and just sits there looking at me. I have discovered that I can open the printer lid and close it and it will then print??????
Also when I click on "apps"on the printer menu screen, it tells me, "unable to connect to the server".
Anybody experience this problem??

I too have this issue with my HP8500a Plus.
I have managed to narrow down the issue to one of the cartridges. Whenever this cartridge is inside the printer, the issue will happen. If it's not, then the issue disappears!
I have tested this discovery on TWO different hp8500a printers, and they both react to this "special" cartridge the same way: its presence inside the cartridge tray triggers the issue.
There is only one thing that makes this cartridge any different form the other ones: even though it IS a genuine HP cartridge, it has been refilled and the max allowed page count has been hit. The issue started happening only after the max allowed page count has been hit.
