Install HP Pro 8600 on Windows 8 with usb connection only

I am trying to install my HP OFFICE PRO8600  using the disk on my windows 8 hp laptop. The computer is saying that the software can only supported by XP Vista Windows 7  It says to upgrade the operating system. I have tried to connect with the USB and this is not working either. Can anyone offer some simple suggestion please?

Hi and welcome to the HP Support Community.
Try downloading and installing the full featured driver updates for the printer, here:

Hope this works for you.
p.s. I am also moving this to the All-in-one Printers board.

  • Officejet Pro 8600 plus: trouble with double sided printing

    I have just installed Officejet Pro 8600 plus. My iMac is running on OS X 10.9.2
    I want to print a double sided brochure. And I have succeeded. However, the printing on one side of the paper is upside down.
    To achieve this:
    Print <Copies & Pages <Layout - turn on two-sided - long edge binding
    Layout direction is greyed out
    How can I fix this please

    Hello xxzz,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that the flip on long edge option is greyed out for you when you try to print double sided. I will try to help you with this.
    Usually if an option is greyed out, it indicates that the software wasn't installed completely or correctly. That or the printer isn't capable of the task. Knowing that this printer is able to duplex, it could be a problem with the software/drivers.
    Try the following.
    Uninstall the software.
    Reset the print system.
    Verify/Repair disk permissions
    Re-install the software - software download
    Test to see if you're now able to choose the options.
    Let me know how things go, thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

    Turn off your printer.
    Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan > Printers window and delete the printer from the list, then add it back.
    Turn on your printer.
    Any difference?

    When installing Acrobat Pro 11 on Windows 7 32 bit, it takes you through all the way to install, then it just hangs and won't install. 

    Hi mrmacnology,
    Please check and ensure that you should not have any prior version of Acrobat already installed on your computer.
    Do you get any specific error message?
    You might try installing Acrobat from a different browser.

  • Any network adapters with usb connection for mac?

  • I have a macbook pro and the software with snow leopard only has upgraded to 10.5.8, do I need to purchase mountain lion to upgrade to 10.6.8?

    I have a macbook pro and the software with snow leopard only has upgraded to 10.5.8, do I need to purchase mountain lion to upgrade to 10.6.8?

    Your machine likely can't handle Mountain Lion 10.8 nor 10.7, if it does it will run slow and very higly likely a lot of your third party software and drivers for printers and scanners won't function anymore.
    It's because your 10.5 era (or earlier) machine is rather dated, hardware has advanced and is faster, the newer OS X versions have gotten bloated.
    I do recommend you call Apple via phone and order the 10.6.3 white retail disks, backup your personal data off the 10.5.8 Mac to a external storage drive and when the disk arrives, stick it in and run the upgrade installer.
    Once that's finished, reboot and use Software Update to get to 10.6.8 and stay there. You can buy stuff from AppStore, just don't upgrade to 10.8 (or 10.7) as thats when you'll have issues.
    10.6 should run your currrently installed PPC software and hardware drivers. But 10.7/10.8 will not.
    10.6 is receiving security and other updates from Apple as more than 50% of OSX users are still on it.

  • My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). How do I fix it?

    My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). I have tried unplugging the devices, restarting the computer, selectively unplugging and plugging in the devices, closing and opening the relevant applications (iTunes, iPhoto, etc). I have tried using different USB cables.
    It's like all of a sudden the synching service stopped functioning or recognizing these devices for some reason. The other ports work just fine (monitor).
    The only USB-connected external device that appears to be unaffected is the USB SuperDrive and it works on all the USB ports into which I plug it.
    How do I fix this?

    Open Console in Applications>Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens or doesn't happen.

  • HT201210 my new iphone 4 is stuck with "USB connect to itunes".  I put it in recovery mode last night, but it doesn't change.  Itunes recognizes the phone and says it's in recovery mode, but when I do a restore, nothing changes.

    my new iphone 4 is stuck with "USB connect to itunes".  I put it in recovery mode last night.  Itunes recognizes the phone and says it's in recovery mode, but when I do a restore, nothing changes.

    it says "itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode.  you must restore this iphone before it can be used with itunes."  I click OK
    then I click the restore button
    Then the box says "Are you sure you want to restore the iphone to it's factory settings?  all of your.....etc."  I click Restore and Update
    then it goes into software update
    at the end of the software update it says "Itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode...."
    All this time, the screen of the iphone stays on with USB to Itunes
    I might add that while the phone was in it's first attempt at recovery mode, it was accidentally unplugged.
    any suggestions?

  • My mac has10.5.8 and should be compatible with new HP officejet pro 8600.  I can't get it to install for wireless, nor to work with USB cable.  Have tried downloading HP install directly from HP and it still doesn't work.

    I just bought a new HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 printer.  I have been unable to download the installation for wireless connection even though have had the assistance of Costco tech, HP tech and some advice from Apple.  Because the system is MacOs 10.5.8 the error says it is incompatible, even though the product lists compatiblilty with 10.5, 10.6.   I was advised 1 option might be to obtain Snow Leopard for installation, however am somewhat reluctant as the bo states 10.5 should work and Snow Leopard is 10.6, which is also listed as compatible.  I am unable to get the printer to work even with USB cable.  Too much time spent on this and I hate to start over with another printer because I'm afraid I might have the same trouble.  Is Snow Leopard something I should get anyway?  Help!

    Snow Leopard has more compatible Java.

  • Printing duplex with HP Officejet Pro 8600 causes windows 7 OS to shut down/restart

    Why when printing duplex with my HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer it causes windows 7( 64-bit) to shut down/restart. Windows message is "Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown.  I've ran HP Hardward Diag. Utility and Print and Scan Doctor which indicated everything is working properly with the printer.  Ocassionaly I can print duplex without windows shutting down and restarting, but most of the time it creates issue with Windows causing it to stop and restart.  Single sided printing seems to be fine.  I've already oncehad windows to "Startup Repair" in which ccase I selected restore to a previous working point.  Everything worked for awhile then a duplex printing session starting causing windows to shut down again.   THanks for your assistance.

    Yes, the updated USB 3.0 driver corrects the issue and should be installed.
