New officejet 8600 plus display is in Chinese not English. How do I change to English?

My brand new out of the box Officejet Pro 8600 plus front panel display came up in Chinese when I turned it on. How can I set it back to English?

Hi,
I checked the machine here and if the menu is the same for all languages this should help.
Press the setup icon (if you dont see it you might need to press the right arrow once) it looks like a wrench and a gear.
Press the 5th option
press the 2nd option
you should now see a list of languages/country displayed in their native names so scroll trough it until you see US or english.

MACBOOK PRO SPORADICALLY PRINTS TO HP NEW OFFICEJET 8600 PLUS

I bought a brand new HP Officejet 8600 Plus and have been having sporadic printing problems.
MacBookPro OSX 10.6.8
Router: Airport Extreme
Wireless printing
I also have a PC with windows and have no problems printing at all using same wireless router. When this has happened before, I have shut everything down, disconnected everything, reconnected everything, removed the printer from the macbook, added it back on and then it has worked.
This time - nothing - the document sits in the queue - says connected and . . . nothing!
Please Help!

Hi @Lyn99
Since the issue does not arise when you print from the Windows computer, we know the issue is either related to the Mac or the router, not the printer. I will happily do all I can to help you figure out what the root cause of the issue is and with any luck resolve the issue!
This printer has something called Wireless Direct. Lets enable the wireless direct, which allows the printer to broadcast its own network, then add the Mac to the printers network and see if you can print. If you can print this way, we will know the issue is not the Mac, it is the network, and if you can not print well it is the Mac
On the front panel of the printer, go to the Setup menu by arrowing over to the wrench, then select Network and choose Wireless Direct. When you have turned on the Wireless Direct, go to the Mac and click on the Airport/wifi symbol and choose the printers network (it will say something like HP Print 8600 and part of the hardware address).
Once the Mac is on the printers network, try to print from the Mac. Let me know the outcome and we can go from there.
Thanks, I look forward to hearing from you.

I want new tabs to open with my current homepage, not Bing - how do I change this?

Whenever I open a new tab I always get the Bing search page. I would prefer all new tabs to open my homepage - how do I do that? Is this a default setting that can't be changed?

You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.

Can't Downgrade firmware on HP Officejet 8600 Plus!!!

Hi
In my office I have to scan and copy many many Legal size documents per day, I recently have aquired this awesome printer Hp Officejet 8600 Plus
The first day I was able to scan a bunch of 2 sided legal paper, very awesome, but then I upgraded the printer, as always confident with the upgrades, but as a result of that I was unable to scan legal size paper again
I was reading a lot of similar issues, and i Cant believe that this is an official desicion, the printer can perfectly scan legal size papper, so the solution is to downgrade the FW to an older version, but I Cant, I tryed with Jetadmin, with OJP8600_N911gn_1232A.exe, and copying the upgrade file *.ful directly to the printer
And always the same thing:
-in the screen of the printer appears the message (Printing) for a few seconds and then backs to the home screen again
In the computter with Jetadmin it stay on 0% for hours
-With OJP8600_N911gn_1232A.exe and the modded EnterpriseDU.ini Appears an error after 20 minutes, and ask me for reset the printer
-Copying the *.ful file on the Printer, just put the Printing screen on the printer 2 or 3 seconds and then backs to the home screen.
I tryed by USb cable, ethernet and even Wireless
Is a security lock in the new firmwares?
How Can I Downgrade the printer?, is urgent, i need to scan a lot of Legal documents
And please activate the option by our own risk option, for legal scan in the next update, I'm tired and dissapointed...
thanks

OfficeJet 8600 Plus Printer Wifi not initializing

My printer has suddenly stopped initializing the WiFi antenna when powered up. I have not changed any drivers or installed any software that would affect the hardware status.
The WiFi feature was working two days ago. I keep the printer powered down when not in use. Power up this morning did not initialize WiFi.
This question was solved.

Officejet 8600 Plus "scanner reported error" Mac scanning

I recently purchased the Officejet 8600 Plus and have run into problems scanning. When scanning using the ADF, I frequently get a message saying, "Scanner reported an error. The scan was not completed because the operation was cancelled while scanning was in progress." The only way to escape from this situation is to turn off the OJ, power it back on, and then try scanning again. I haven't seen the issue using the flatbed, but I've used the ADF far more than the flatbed. This happens both when connected via wifi and USB, so it's not a networking problem. I have tried scanning via Apple's Image Capture as well as HP Scan and I get the error using both. I have all the latest software and firmware for both the Officejet and my Mac. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the HP software, to no avail. This situation is tremendously frustrating as one of the main reasons I purchased this product was the wifi scanning feature. Without a solution to this problem I will consider this product to be defective and will return it. So, any suggestions as to how to alleviate the problem? Thanks. System info: Macbook Pro 17" (early 2011)OS X 10.8.5

I have an HP MF127fw connected to Mac computers and am experiencing exactly the same problem. Scans from the ADF always fail with that same "scan canceled" message. Preview, Image Capture, or Scan from Print & Scan all receive the same error. USB or WiFi connections make no difference. What is wrong with the HP connection? Here it is 2015 and there have been over 200 viewers of the original posting regarding the inability to scan. Hasn't anyone found a way to overcome this problem?

Officejet 8600 Plus e N911g - Workaround for Toolbox Ink Level display

This is with a hard wired Ethernet hookup. I bypassed the router so as to eliminate any problem passing signal thru. It worked with and without the router.
Until HP comes up with a fix for the two way communication problem that everybody is having, I stumbled on a way to workaround this.
1. Turn printer OFF
2.Start HP Officejet 8600 program from desktop icon or from HP folder in Programs.
3.Select "Estimated Ink Levels" from Shopping Resources.
4. Toolbox (Network) should appear. (The computer is unable to establish two-way communication with the device.)
5.Turn printer ON
6. Select "Estimated Ink Level " tab. Ink levels should appear. If not, then select "Refresh" once or more times.
All other tabs should also be available. This will only work one time. You will have to turn printer OFF again and start procedure over.
This worked on Windows 7 x64 and Windows XP 32bit both on the same network with a Linksys DIR-655 router.

Hello,
If you are referring to the printer display in your below description "Then abt 6-weeks ago the display option for Scanning and Display Ink Levels just disappeared,", then i guess you may have to do the follwoing....
1> While the printer is ON, unplug all the cords from back of the printer.
2> Wait for full 60 seconds.
3> plug in the power cord directly into a wall outlet ( bypass the surge / power strip ) and then into the printer.
4> If the printer is not powering on, press the ON button once to do so.
5> If the display issue still exists, then try tilting the display.
6> If issue still persists, then call HP Tech Support for further assistance.

Cannot Access IP Web Browser Configuration Page OfficeJet 8600 Plus

Win 7 64-bit
HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus
Wireless Connection
Hi:
The printout of wireless network test page shows IP address for HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus as: http://192.168.1.104 (The HP Home Network Diagnostic Utility v4.3.0.002 also shows: 192.168.1.104)
When I try to access http://192.168.1.104 with either IE 9 or Firefox 10 I get an error message: "The website is unable to display the webpage"
But, on the same computer I CAN access http://192.168.1.103 HP Officejet 6480 web browser configuration page with either IE 9 or Firefox 10
Why I can't access the web configuration page: http://192.168.1.104
Thanks
FYI: I set the router to various other network modes, channel widths, channels and ssid broadcast on/off, and also removed power from router and printer, reconnected power and restarted computer, all these efforts did NOT allow access to http://192.168.1.104

On the front of the printer: Setup > Network > Wireless Setup Wizard. Run it.
Next, on your PC, delete all instances of your printer in Control Panel > Devices and Printers.
Finally, re-add the printer this way:
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and connected to your network. Verify that you can access the printer's internal web page by browsing to its IP address before continuing. Get its IP from a Network Test printed from the front panel of the printer.
2. Click >> Start >> Control panel >> Devices & Printers.
3. Click the Add a printer
4. Select Local printer
5. Select Create a new port and select Standard TCP/IP Port and click Next button.
6. Under Device type, select TCP/IP Device. Under Hostname or IP address, enter the printer's IP address. Click Next.
7. Select Hewlett-Packard from the list of manufacturers and select and select your printer model. Click Next.
If your printer model was not listed, then select Have Disk, browse the HP CD that came with your printer and select the first file that starts with hp and ends with inf. Click Open then OK. Select your printer model. Click Next.
8. If you are asked, use the currently installed driver.
9. It will ask for the Printer name -- enter a new name or use the existing one. This will be the name of the printer that you select from other applications.
10. You may be asked to share the printer. Choose NO.
11. The Print Test Page box appears. Go ahead and print it.
12. Click Finish.

How to upload photos from memory card to computer on new Officejet 8500A Plus?

I recently replaced an older HP psc 2410 photosmart printer with a new Officejet Pro 8500A Plus printer. The installation went fine without error messages, and it prints, scans and copies just fine. When I insert a memory card into the slot, the printer itself recognizes the files and displays them on the LCD screen and offers to print them. BUT ... what I want to do is upload the files to my PC (running Windows XP), and I can't figure out how to do it! There is no HP program that pops up and offers to transfer the photos like with my old printer. I was also expecting to see the card slots shown as a removeable drive like I did with my old printer, but I don't see them. Also, my Photoshop Elements program doesn't recognize the card slots either.
Then it dawned on me that my computer doesn't "see" the card slots because it's not connected directly to the printer! I set this up as a wireless printer and I am totally new to this, so pardon if this is a dumb question... but is there no way to transfer files from the card slot to the PC in a wireless setup?? I'm totally confused...
This question was solved.

Hi,
If your printer is connected thru network or wireless network, you have to access it thru the IP address.
Find out the IP address of the printer. You can do this by clicking on the network icon on the front panel of your printer.
Open Windows explorer and type \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the ip address of the printer.
You'll see the memory card slot there.
You can do a "map network drive" to it if you want your printer card slot to be listed there permanently.

HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus will print wirelessly but not scan

I have a HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus all in one printer/copier/scanner. It's worked fine for the several months I have had it. But now suddently the computer does not recognize the scanner. I am connected to the device wirelessly and can print but not scan. I haven't been able to figure out why the comptuer recognizes the printer but not the scanner. I uninstalled and reinstalled the device but still no success.
Any ideas how I can get the computer to recognize the scanner? I am running Windows 8. Have not updated to 8.1.

Hello Sarah1234, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you are experiencing scanning issues. I would like to help.
I would recommend powering off your printer and computer. Once they are both down, I would recommend unplugging the power from your wireless router for 60 seconds, and then plugging it back in. Once it has begun broadcasting again, power on your printer and computer.
I would also recommend downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor. Once you have launched the tool, select the 'fix scanning' option.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

How do I install an HP Officejet 8600 Plus on my Windows 8.1 computer?

I am trying to download the install software for the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus to my Windows 8.1 computer (Lenovo Yoga). When I click on the link to go to the page in downloads, I get a blank page that never populates. How do I get this information?

What is the full product name for your printer or the full product number?
I did not have any problem locating the driver software at the following URL.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software12/COL40120/bi-108858-4/OJ8600_1315-1.exe
You may need to use a different browser. If you were using Internet Explorer then try Google Chrome or Firefox.

Officejet 8600 plus

I have been using my Officejet 8600 for months with an Apple router. I have a MAC, PC and Ipad that I use to print wireless. Today it stopped workig. I can set up the "wireless" on the printer and it will work for one printing, then it stops. I go and set it up again and it works again. For some reason it is not keeping the set up - any ideas? Thx.
