My new HP officejet pro 6830 crashes when I connect to my Asus RT-N66U router

OfficeJet Pro 6830 crashes when connected to network (Asus RT-N66U router)
I've just taken delivery of an OfficeJet Pro 6830. I've installed the ink cartridges and it seems to be able to print copies and test pages, but I can't get it to connect to my network. Here's what I've tried:
Using the Wireless Setup Wizard
I selected my network from the list and entered my WPA key. It says it's trying to connect, then the following happens:
1. Briefly (for less than a second) a screen pops up showing that it has successfully connected to the network.
2. Briefly (for less than a second) the screen flashes blue with a "power" icon and the text "B8B2A4F8" (which I presume is an error code).
3. The screen display changes to "Printer Error: There is a problem with the printer. Turn the printer Off, then On."
4. After restarting the printer, it complains that it has not been shut down properly.
Any further attempts to connect yield the same results.
Ethernet connection
If I power the printer on while it is connected via an Ethernet cable to my network, after about 10 seconds it crashes as described above (steps 2 and 3) without me doing anything at all.
I did manage to get it to connect to a WiFi hotspot on my mobile phone (and I checked for firmware updates, but unfortunately there were none available), so it seems there's something about my network that the printer doesn't like. I have no idea what that could be, however. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hello Shawnondrums,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with the printer shutting down when attempting to connect to the wireless network.
A very important step that gets easily over looked is, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
Once the printer is back on, please use the on/off button to do a proper shut down and restart.  This will also do a semi power reset on the printer.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
Thanks for your time.

  • Installing new HP Officejet Pro 6830 e-All-in-One series

    We just installed the HP Officejet Pro 6830 e-All-in-One Series.  The screen on the printer does nothing but spin around with the notation that it is "Checking for printer updates".   Why is this happening?  Like I said, we just set it up and I am turning to this form because I can't find a Support contact phone number.  I've turned the printer off and then back on. We've installed, uninstalled, and re-installed.  About ready to pack it up and just use our old All-in-One again. Thank you!

  • New Officejet Pro 6830 will not print via USB connection. It scans great to PC. It copies.

    New HP Officejet Pro 6830 for user to have local USB printer/scanner at desk.  User runs win 7 64 bit on a network.  Raninstall through setup.exe.  Followed steps, connected printer via USB when it said to and it detected it and finished install.You can use HP Scan software and it scans to the PC perfectly.  It will not print from any application or even a testpage from the Printer Properties page.  If you go to the maintenance application it will print status and test page.  If you run HP Scan and Print doctor it does it's thing, gives all Green Check marks and lets you print a test page fine, but it stillwill not print even a test page from the printer properties page (start/Devices and  Pritners/right click on Officejet Pro 6830, select Printer Properties for Officejet Pro 6830 (not the Fax 6830), and click print test page.   It does not seethe printer.  It is a networked PC and has network defined HP network printers as well but user wanted a printer/scanner at his desk.   I actually took the unit and connected to my laptop which is same win 7 64 bit platform and it does the same thing.   I disable the virus protection to do the install so that is not an issue.  It clearly sees and installs the printer, andlike I said the HP Scan works fine so it is connected via the USB to the PC, but it will not print.   I have tried to install from the CD, and removed device and tried to install from the new downloaded drivers as well and it just does not want to print.I have conected to different USB ports, and like I said actually tried it on a different PC and had same results. Guidance certainly would be appreciated.

    Hi , I see by your post that you can scan, but are unable to print over the USB connection. I would be happy to help you.
    I have provided a document for setting Security permissions for printing to see if that will help. If the issue persists, reinstall the printer on the Administrator Account to see if you have the same results.Unlock Hidden Administrator Account and install the printer on this account:  Go to your Start menu and under the 'search programs and files' box type CMD. CMD will populate as a search option above, just right click on it and 'run as administrator'. Once CMD (Command Prompt) opens, type net user administrator /active:yes and hit enter. Next, close CMD and restart your computer. When your computer comes on log into the new account that should show. It will be called Administrator and will not have a password on it. If your computer automatically logs into your account after restart than go to your start menu click the arrow beside 'shutdown' and choose 'switch user'. Now log into the Administrator account we just unlocked.Under the Administrator account, install the printer software. Test the printer. To turn off the Admin account start back at step 1 and type in net user administrator /active:no.Please let me know the outcome. If you appreciate my efforts, please click the 'Thumbs up' button below. Thank You.

  • Officejet Pro 6830 all in one - screen stuck on "checking for printer updates"

    Windows 7 X64 install
    I ran through the entire installation process and while the printer will print and will scan - the printer is hung on the message "checking for printer updates" with a red x below that message.  I let it set all night and no change.  The printer is setup as a wired network connection and can be seen with any of the tools.  I have not errors on my system.  I have uninstalled the software and reinstalled twice without success.  I tried running a firmware update, but the firmware update states that I have the latest firmware rev.  I even unplugged the printer and plugged it directly into the wall - n o change.  Evertime I startup the printer screen, just hangs on that screen. 
    Please help.

    I have the exact same problem with my new HP Officejet Pro 6830 printer.  Please could you provide a solution else I guess it will have to go back to the shop as I only picked it up this afternoon.
    Setup went ok and it even managed to print a couple of pages.  But next time it started up (with wired ethernet connection) this problem occurred and happens every time ever since.  (It is possible to use the printer for printing and scanning via PC, but the whole time its display is showing the "checking for printer updates" message.)
    This even happens if the ethernet cable is not connected on startup (meaning the printer cannot be used as a standalone printer / copier either at the moment).
    If I press the red cross (which I guess cancels the update searching) then I get a blue screen saying "B871634E" for a second or so, afterwhich I get a black screen with the message "There is a problem with the printer. Turn the printer Off, then On." and cannot do anything else.  (The problem is the same after doing a printer off then on - even when following the "hard reset" procedure already mentioned.)
    On checking the firmware version via the PC utility (while the printer sits there "checking for printer updates"), the PC utility app reported that the firmware was the latest version.

  • HP Officejet Pro 6830 print quality

    I have a brand new HP Officejet Pro 6830, I set it up following the instructions and it was working fine for a few days. Then I started getting error messages about the printhead, and messages telling me that I had installed genuine recycled HP ink cartridges and did I want to buy nbew genuine ones. Now I am no longer getting error messages but the print quality is awful, half of it not printing properly. Any suggestions gratefully received. I have tried the sum of my knowledge - switching it off and back on again! Thanks.

    Hi @helenincardiff,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that your HP Officejet Pro 6830 is not printing properly. I am sorry to hear this, but happy to help!
    Please take a look through the steps in this print quality guide, Fixing Print Quality Problems for the HP Officejet 6810 and Officejet Pro 6830 e-All-in-One Printer ....

  • Officejet Pro 6830 Won't Print!!

    Hi,
    I have recently purchased an HP Officejet Pro 6830 and after being set up it just doesn't want to print. 
    I can't print a test page on it's own but with the HP Print and Scan Doctor it prints test pages.
    It can't print from any Microsoft Office 2013 Pro Plus software but I can print from the standard Notepad and Acrobat Reader programs.
    I have tried everything I could think of!
    -Reinstalling Software + Drivers
    -Restarting the Printing Spooling service
    -Reintalling Microsoft Office
    -Deleting other Printers and its drivers
    -Updating network driver
    -Adding the Printer using the standard microsoft "add a new printer" action
    -Running the HP Print and Scan Doctor which found pretty much no issues.
    -Disabling my anti-virus and firewall
    The printer is connected wirelessly everywhere and it has been setup on other computers in the house and it works fine with them. That's why I haven't returned it!
    I'm an IT guy by trade but this thing has made me desperate enough to post a question here!
    Any help would be grateful.
    Thank You,
    Paul

  • Bizarre solution for OfficeJet Pro K5300 problem when Word docs hang in the print queue spooling

    A bizarre solution to a spooling problem.
    Problem:
    Word documents sent to an HP Officejet Pro K5300 Series printer hang in the print queue, saying “spooling”. They do not print, and cannot even be cancelled.
    Solution (Bizarre Solution).
    The solution that worked for me was to rename the printer by removing the first space after “HP” in the printer’s name. When I did this, Word could then print to the printer. If the space is then re-inserted back into the printer-name then Word is still able to print!! I don’t know how, but it worked, and it worked on two separate installations! The full explanation is below with more options for testing that still need to be explored, or preferably explained by HP and or Microsoft.
    First here is some background. My computer is an IBM NetVista 2.4GHz, P4. It has a 250GB HDD with lots of room and 2GB of RAM. My operating system is Win XP Pro with Service Pack 3. My anti-Virus in Trend Micro Internet Security 2009, updated regularly, (I turned it off while installing the printer software). I use Office Professional 97, with Office SP2b).
    I bought a new HP Officejet Pro K5300 printer.
    I installed the printer software, and followed HP’s directions strictly. I used the installation CD that was supplied by HP. My connection to the printer was USB.
    The installation proceeded uneventfully and I printed a test page after it finished.
    After that I printed a configuration page, then I printed a couple of photographs using Irfan View. The quality was great and I was pleased.
    Then I tried to print a 2-page Word document, using Word 97, but nothing happened. No response from the printer, no error messages, just silence. I clicked on the printer icon on the task bar to look at the print queue and saw that my document was listed as “Spooling”, but it was not making any progress. I waited a couple of minutes but still no progress. I tried canceling it but it would not cancel/delete. The job on the queue would not respond to anything. I could not print it and I could not cancel it. The only way I could recover was to shut down Word, which flushed the queue and lost the job.
    I tried this a few more times but with no success.
    I did a Google search for this problem, and I found a few solutions. I tried them, but none worked. I checked HP’s website and found this problem listed, with some solutions from HP. I tried HP’s solutions, but they did not work either. In fact, when there was a Word document stuck “spooling” in the queue, HP’s diagnostic utility said that it could not even communicate with the printer, and suggested that my USB connection was bad. However, when I flushed the queue by shutting down Word, I could successfully send a Test Page to the printer, and I could print a detailed PDF from Adobe. So Word was the problem, not my USB connection.
    After a pondering this problem over the next few days, and keeping in mind the fact that the default HP printer-name was “HP Officejet Pro K5300 Series”, I remembered that many years ago I could not get an Excel VB macro to select a printer, and print to it, if the printer-name had any spaces in it. I had noticed that the HP default printer name had 4 spaces in it, so I wondered what would happen if I renamed the printer by removing the spaces from its name.
    So I renamed the printer to “HPOfficejetProK5300Series” (no spaces), and voila! Word could now print to it!
    Then I wondered, if it was necessary to remove all of the spaces from the name, or just some of them, to get the printer to work, so I renamed the printer back to it’s default name in 4 stages, at each stage re-inserting one of the original spaces, and testing the printing. At each stage the printer kept successfully printing from Word, until I had re-inserted all four spaces and the printer’s name was back to being identical to the default name that it was installed with, but now it would print from Word on command.
    So why was it that Word could not get the printer to print with the printer’s default installed name, but if I removed all of the spaces from the printer’s name, then re-inserted them, the printer would print from Word every time?
    So I did another test.
    I uninstalled the entire printer software package and installed the updated Full Feature software package, filename “OJProK5X00_Full_8_3.exe”, 159MB download from HP.
    After the package was installed, Word could NOT print to the printer, but other programs like Adobe PDF reader, and Irfan View, could print to it. I tried each software package about three times each, with consistent results.
    I then renamed the printer, but this time I just removed the first space after the letters “HP”, i.e., I changed the printer’s name from “HP Officejet Pro K5300 Series” to “HPOfficejet Pro K5300 Series”. After I did that Word could then print to it. I then changed the printer’s name back to “HP Officejet Pro K5300 Series” by re-inserting the first space, and Word could still print to it now.
    I challenge someone from HP to read this and explain why Word won’t print to this printer until I rename the printer by removing a space, but can still print to it after the space is re-inserted!
    Of course, there is another alternative. Perhaps I could have renamed the printer by removing or changing any of the other characters, instead of the spaces. But each test involves completely uninstalling and re-installing the software, and I have better things to do with my time.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    What an amazing solution!
    I recently purchased an HP Deskjet F4580 and had discovered that when using Word 97, it would print OK when using the Print icon but when trying to print using File->Print->choose page number or current page, Word would crash. Excel, Adobe etc would all print fine. I have spend many hours removing and then reloading the HP software and Office Professional software but this solution fixed the problem in a few minutes. PC is running XP Home SP3.
    Just one thing I would add is that my computer has two accounts - one is the Computer Administrator account and the other is a Limited account. When I took out the space between HP and Deskjet so the printer became HPDeskjet F4500 series, I could then print from the Administrator account using either  the print icon or File->Print->choose page number or current page. When I switched to the Limited account, I would get the same crash when I tried File->Print->choose page number or current page (OK with icon). The Limited account mode does not allow the printer to be re-named.
    I went back to Admin mode, re-classified the Limited account as a Computer Administrator account, logged on to this account and re-named the printer (in this case I took out another space so it became HPDeskjetF4500 series. Then it printed fine using the print icon or using File->Print->choose page number or current page. I then went back to the Computer Administrator account, re-named the printer to HPDeskjet F4500 and re-classified the second account back to Limited account mode. Now printing OK in both Computer Administrator account mode and Limited account mode.
    Thanks again!

  • HP Officejet Pro 6830 e-All-in-One series Scanning Paper Size problem

    I only use A4 paper but it seems that when I use the paper feed to scan a document to the computer, the document scans in a default Letter Size, rather than A4, thereby missing some of the information at the bottom of the page.
    I would like to alter the default on the printer to ALWAYS default to A4. Can this be done? I was using the scan option on the printer screen rather than from the computer, where I would have to manually change the paper size every time.
    Thank you

    Welcome to the HP Community, @Splatt13 ,
    I read your message about wanting your scans to default to A4 size, instead of Letter. I was playing around with the HP Scan software and saved the image below for you to see. Try opening up the software from your computer, and change the scanning options in there to whichever settings you want and that should help you scan as A4 size.  
    Side note: Ensure you have the Full Feature driver and software installed to access the software options: HP Officejet Pro 6830 e-All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Drivers
    Good luck

  • Officejet Pro 6830 e-All-in-One Ink Cartridge Problem Message

    Have/will soon "had" instant ink cartridge service.  Printer did not recognize that the black ink was out so I didnt get a black ink cartridge.  Couldnt wait for the mail service, so purchased all new HP cartridges and installed.  
    "Ink Cartridge Problem" Message came up and is now stuck in the machine, can't clear it.  The machine will not recognize any of the 4 brand new HP inks; that menu item has little red X for each cartridge and each one shows empty.....
    Removed all cartridges, cleaned all contacts, unplugged machine, did a "reset" on the menu via HP phone technician.....nope, nada, nothing.
    Did all above SEVERAL times.   Called HP back..."40 minutes wait time" .. wth...
    Anything else?  Does HP have to reset my machine to "recognize" regular cartridges???  
    Thoughts, suggestions?  (Besides don't buy HP again....I will not....I should know better by now!)
    Thanks all.

  • HP Officejet Pro 6830 Won't Connect to WiFi

    I've had the HP Officejet Pro 6830 for 6-9 months, it's been working great wirelessly the whole time.  Three nights ago we had a power failure, now the printer won't connect to the wireless router.  It sees the SSID, but when I enter the password, it says that the password is wrong.  I am using an ARRIS Cable Modem.  Any suggestions?

    Hi @CWoodland ,
    I see that you are having issues with setting up the network again for the printer, you are getting a message that the password is wrong. I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue.
    I would check the network password on the Mac, to verify the correct password is being entered.
    How to Find the WEP or WPA Key or Password for Your Wireless Network.
    You might have to restore the printer defaults and try again.
    Go to Setup, Network Setup, Restore Network Settings.
    Then run Wireless Setup Wizard again from the printer's display.
    Go to Setup, Network Setup, Wireless Settings, Wireless Setup Wizard.
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a great day!

  • Officejet Pro 6830 unable to print

    I was able to print wirelessly to my Officejet Pro 6830 and all of a sudden I can't do so today. I have performed diagnostics and everything shows up OK. However when I checked the printer job status, nothing shows up.
    How do I go about solving this issue? 

    Hi @VexedHPUser 
    Perhaps the Microsoft Fix it utility will help;
    What it fixes
    You are unable to install a printer, connect to a printer, or print more than one job at a time
    You receive an error indicating your Print Spooler service is experiencing problems
    You receive an error indicating your is not the default printer
    You receive an error indicating: cannot be contacted over the network
    Identify if your printer is turned off
    Identify if your printer toner is low or empty causing your print job to appear faint or it does not print at all
    Identify if your printer paper is low or empty
    Identify if the printer has a paper jam which is preventing it from operating normally
    Identify if a print job that is in the print queue is preventing other print jobs from printing
    Identify if you need to update your print driver
    You receive an error stating that your Plug and Play printer %PRINTERNAME% has encountered a driver problem
    If the issue persists, I think it might be a good idea to reach out to the Microsoft Community.

    Hi @RNOjetnow ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue with needing the drivers for the 10.6 Snow Leopard OS.  You should be able to install the Apple Drivers just by connecting the USB cable.
    Here is a document that might help.
    Hope this helps you install the drivers.
    Thanks.

  • Can't setup ePrint and Web Services on my New HP Officejet Pro 8600!

    I just purchased a new HP Officejet Pro 8600. I setup the printer following the setup wizard: my home wireless network work perfectly and the printer prints great. I am now trying to setup ePrint but I get the following error:
    "Cannot connect to the server.
    Check the Internet connection and try again. Or contact your system administrator or the person who set up the printer. If your network requires a proxy server address to connect to Internet, click Enter Proxy or check your browser settings."
    I don't use any server proxy and my OS System is Windows 7 64 bit.
    Someone can help me?

    I just went through this a few days ago.  I had changed internet service providers and thus had a new router.  My hpconnected migrated from hpeprint andkept saying it was not connected to the network and hpconnected status kept saying 'offline'
    This totally worked:
    on hpconnected.com remove your device
    on your printer or from hp printer software on your system 'remove web services'  
    readd webservices, your printer will print the new information with the claim code
    add your device back to hpconnected with the new claim code
    and wah lah....you are connected to your network through webservices
    you will need to create a new hpeprint email as a result
    PS on the set up when it asks for Proxy Settings and you have ATT Uverse these do not exist so just leave the areas blank
