Office jet pro 8600 how to default to black ink only when printing from my ipad

Is there a way to set an option to print black ink only when printing from my Ipad 2?
When I use the print icon the only option that shows is double page. I would like to be able to print black only.
I can set that option when printing from my pc....

Hi,
Airprint does not support Black ink only printing, however the HP ePrint app allow it.
Be aware that the option is only available for documents (e.g Office files, PDFs, Web pages and emails) but not for Photo files.
You may find the steps to get and use the app in the document below:

My Office Jet Pro L7590 has started to appear to skip lines when printing.

My printer seems to partially print lines, in some cases only the bottom half of letters is appearing on my printouts. I have cleaned the print heads and trired a couple of new cartidges but still the probelm persists. This is only happening to the black text. The Alignment report looks good and so does the Self Test Report but even on the Self Test Report some of the test is partially printed yet the reslults of the test look good.
I'm considering replacing the print heads but am not convinved that this will resolve the issue.

Make sure you have only one securtity system on your PC (for example if you have an old version of McAfee that you just left on there and added another system), uninstal the old, unused security system.
Go to Start > All Programs > HP > [your printer model] > Uninstall. Run it.
Restart your PC.
Download and install the latest software for your printer from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.

How do i connect a surface 2 to an office jet pro 8600

I am trying to connect a surface 2 windows RT 8.1 tablet to an HP office jet pro 8600. I have down loaded the driver from the HP web site but I get an error message that states it can not be run on this computer, and I should go to the app store. I can't find any special appnfor this.

Hi 1643, welcome to the HP Forums. Windows RT does not need drivers installed like other versions of Window. It should be just a matter of connecting it with a USB cable, or following the wireless/wired instructions contained in this document:
Install the Printer Software in Windows RT or Windows 8 on a Tablet.
Let me know how it goes

How to Scan using your HP Office Jet Pro 8600

Well, I figured out my own answer because I couldn't find a "solved" topic in this regard. So then I decided to post my findings in order to help the next querier (is that a word = one who queries). FYI - I am not a 'techie' and while I can find my way around a computer it sometimes takes a while. Also, I have Windows 7 on this laptop if that makes a difference.
1. Go to Control Panel and choose:
2. Hardware and Sound, then
3. Devices & Printers, then
4. Fax-HP Office Jet Pro 8600 (Network) or whatever printer choice pertains to your situation, then
5. HP Printer Assistant, then
6. Scanner Actions, then
7. Scan a document or photo, then
8. Save as PDF
9. Scan
10. Save to folder you choose
I know this may seem simplistic to most of you but maybe someone like me is out there trying to find this out and this might help.

Hi Acupuncture,
Thank you very much for posting your solution that you found yourself, on using the scan function on your HP OfficeJet Pro 8600. I also apologize we were not fast enough to answer one of your inquiries on the HP Support Forums. I was able to check your user page but was unable to find your initial post on asking us How to Scan, did you delete the question? Either way I am glad you are now up and scanning from your OJ 8600.
For future reference I would like you to take a look here: How to Scan: Windows 7, here you will be given all options and shortcuts on scanning with or without the HP software as well as some cool features, like scanning from the front panel of your 8600 and adding multiple pages to a single file.
Again I appreciate you taking the time to help the other Community members, so Thank you again!!

How do I print single envelopes on my hp office jet Pro 8600 premium

How do I print single evelopes on my hp office jet Pro 8600 premium

Hi B4567
I understand you would like to know how to print a single envelope.
I have provided a document on how to print envelopes. There is also a video included.
You could use the one tray for envelopes and the other one for paper so you don't have to keep pulling out the stack of paper to print one envelope all the time.
Hope that helps.

I only want my HP Office Jet Pro 8600 Plus to print in black and white

I have an HP Office Jet Pro 8600 plus and I only need it to print out word documents and do not need color. For some reason the printer requires me to refill my yellow ink in order for me to print a document in greyscale. How can I change the settings so this doesn't occur?

Hp Office Jet Pro 8600 A910, suddenly can't send fax. Reveiving faxes are ok.

We can't send any fax, but we can still receive a fax. This happened suddenly without any changes (on device or our telephone line) When sending a fax it dials and gives a busy tone. After that we get a error sheet pointing out Error 388, communication error. Following things we did:- Tried sending fax on our other phone line to rule out broken phone cable/connections.- Called to phone and from phone to fax which worked.- Printed out T90 testsheet. All tests passed.- Tried faxing with ECM off or in other words turned off the error connection mode.- Tried faxing with lower connection speed setting.- Checked other settings to see if there was anything wrong, but all okay.- Powered off, disconnected power cable for at least 15 seconds. Is the fax broken or anything else we can try?

Hi , I see you have been troubleshooting an issue with your Officejet Pro 8600 no longer able to send faxes, and I think I may have found some more information for you. Can you specify your your exact printer model for me? In your post title you say it is an 'Office Jet Pro 8600 A910' but and A910 is an Officejet 8500A. How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number? Seems like an odd question, but the printer make a copy? It could be an issue with the scanner mechanism.
Is the printer connected directly to a wall outlet or is it in a surge protector or a power bar? We want to connect it to a wall outlet just so we can eliminate the power source as the root cause. See this document for more information about Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector (Note: This document is not limited to Laserjet printers.)
HP regularly releases firmware updates that may also correct the problem you are experiencing. You can click on this link to;Get Printer Updates for HP Officejet Pro 8600 (N911), Officejet 6600 (H711) and Officejet 6700 Premium (H711) e-All-in-One Printer SeriesGet Printer Updates for HP Officejet 6500A, and Officejet Pro 8500A e-All-in-One Printer Series Have you tried to run the Fax Test Report? It's usually located in the setup menu, under tools. The fax test report will let you know if it finds any problems and how to correct them. Once everything passes on the fax test report, you can Test Your HP Fax Machine with the HP Fax Test Service. I reviewed the error code you provided from the Interpreting Error Codes in Fax Communication Error or Fax History Reports document. Error 388: There is too much noise on the line for a valid connection between two fax machines to complete. The noise problem might go away over time. Retry the fax reception when telephone line conditions have improved. Call the telephone provider if line conditions fail to improve. Have you touched base with the phone company to make sure they have not changed anything on their end? Does this same error occur with every number you try to dial? You could see if anything in Fax Sending Fails Intermittently or Fails for Only One Recipient is helpful as well. Please let me know if these steps resolved your issue, or if there is anything else I can do to help. I look forward to hearing from you! Thanks,

HP Office Jet Pro 8600 all in one

I fax documents from word with my printer. Every once in a while, but more frequently as of late, the document will fax, shows send in the log, I hear the the fax completely send and hang up, but then it will fax it over and over, even though I only set it to fax one time. Only way then to stop it from sending is to turn off printer and then I either have to reboot my computer or log off to get it to clear. When computer comes back up, I turn printer back on and it is ready for use. It has done this since I bought it, but like I said seems more frequent.
It is an HP office jet pro 8600 all in one, running on Windows 8.1. It is hard wired, not running wirelesslym with desktop. Anybody have any clues as to what is causing this and how to fix it. It is so frustrating. Thanks.

Hi LFoskey,
Does the printer send multiple faxes when you fax directly from the printer, or only when you fax from Word?
You can check for a firmware update in cause the issue is being caused by the printer itself;
HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911a Firmware
HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g_n Firmware (Plus and Premium models)
Please also try the HP Print and Scan Doctor, it can quickly resolve any issues including but not limited to;
Driver Check : Checks for missing or corrupt driver files.
Device Manager : Checks for problems in Device Manager that would prevent printing.
Device Online : Checks if the product has been paused or set to offline, and then sets the status back to online if necessary.
Print Queue : Checks for and clears pending print jobs in the print queue (a log of print jobs waiting to print).
Port Match : Checks the port settings for the HP product.
Device Conflicts : Checks for conflicts with other drivers, such as other printer brands.
Click here to download and run the Print and Scan Doctor> www.hp.com/go/tools
Please post back and let me know if there are any symbols other than green check marks and what they are next to of course. The wrench is not always easy to spot as the wrench and the check mart are in the green circle.
If you see only green check marks ( ), the tool did not find any problems.
If you see green wrenches ( ), the utility identified an issue and corrected it automatically.
If you see yellow exclamation points ( ), the test failed and required user action, but the step was skipped.
If you see a red X ( ), follow the on-screen instructions to resolve the issue.
I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks.

Office Jet Pro 8600 hp cannot connect wirelessly to WPA2 Enterprise encrypted network

HP Office Jet Pro 8600 Premium all in one Printer Scanner CAN NOT connect to encrypted wireless network? Specifics: Wireless network uses WPA 2 Enterprise encryption without passphrase. ( mac filtering only ) Mac address of device is already entered into the wireless router list of devices allowed to connect. Wireless wizard reports ....unable to connect due to authentication failure. alternative instalation attempts ask for passphrase which the wireless network does not use at all. Has been a big issue preventing deployment of mobile wireless scanning and printing throughout the facility. WPA2 is clearly listed as supported wireless protocol. Please help. Several weeks of struggle with India did not resolve the issue. Thank You.

If your router supports dual band broadcasting 5Ghz and 2.4 Ghz, log into your router and look at the two wireless profile names. The names (SSID) should be changed so that they are different from each other for each band 5 and 2.4. Also if the SSID is the default SSID that ships with the router, change it to a unique name as a neighbor within range may have the same SSID. Rename to "my unique SSID" and connect the printer to the new network name "my unique SSID" as example. If you need further assistance, list the exact model of your router

Office Jet Pro 8600 Premium

Our Office Jet Pro 8600 Premium is suddenly experiencing some kind of problem when printing wirelessly. We have had this printer for some time and we exclusively print via the wireless network. We have never had this problem before. The wireless netwrok has no issues as far as we can tell. All computers and phones are able to use the wireless network to connect to the internet, etc. All devices are unable to print to the printer. Devices are mostly Apple products, including the Airport Time Capsule that creates the wireless network, but also some Android phones. Everything seems to be OK - the Network screen on the printer's Set Up Menue says it is connected on the wireless network and it says the signal strength is full, and, the computers on the network in fact see the printer on the network - it is possible to discover the printer when looking for it and the computer is able to accurately read the ink supply levels. On the computers, the Print Que dialog box says "The printer is not connected" and "Ready on server - Unable to locate printer" when sending a document to print. There is a small blue light next to the Wireless Icon on the printer and that is not lit - I think it has been lit in the past. We have stepped through the printer wizard to reintroduce the printer to the wireless network. We have also deleted the printer from the computer's printer list and added the printer anew. Interestingly, when doing these last two fixes, the printer sometimes connects for a short time and it is possible to succesfully print a document, then it goes back to unsuccessful. Sadly, this is not the only problem we have had with this printer and HP's products don't seem to be at the same performance level as in the past.

Hello @OPMike,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you're not able to print wirelessly from your computers or devices to your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium e-All-in-One. I would like to assist you today with resolving this connectivity issue. Thank you for including the troubleshooting you have completed prior to reaching out for support. To be honest, because your printer is 'connecting' to the network after running the Wireless Setup Wizard, even if the connection appears to be brief it is proving that the network card within your printer is functioning. Rather, I believe this issue lies with your router. There is a chance that an update may have went through on the network that is now blocking your printer from access. Printers are affected differently than computers or devices on the network as printers require two-way communication. Can I please have you follow the steps below to resolve this connectivity issue.
How to Properly Powercycle a Network:
First, unplug the power cable to your Router
Once your Router is unplugged, turn off your printer
Next, shut down your computer and devices
After 30 seconds to 1 minute, plug your Router back in
Next, turn on your printer
Turn on the computers and devices
After a minute or so your internet connection should return. Please check on your computer and ensure that you are able to browse to websites again before proceeding. Once your internet is up and running try to print wirelessly to your printer.
Please respond to this post with the result of powercycling your network. I look forward to hearing from you!

Mac to Office Jet Pro 8600 printer

I have a IMAC desk top connected to an Office Jet Pro 8600 running MAC OS 10.6.8. I cannot get the scanner to scan photo's to a specific size. I use the HP Utility but no matter what I try to do the scanned image only cooies from the front right corner of the scanner glass. How do I change the JPEG scanner size and how do I scan whatever size image I place on the glass?
This question was solved.

Hi @paul8588,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that you are trying to scan photos to a specific size with your HP Officejet 8600, and I am happy to help!
I would recommend the following:
Reset the printing system. Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system.
Verify and repair disk permissions. Disk Utility 12.x: Repair disk permissions.
What size of paper are you trying to scan on the glass?
If the above recommendations do not solve your issue, please see this guide. How to Scan: Mac OS X v10.6, and you will see some alternate scanning options without HP software.
Hope this helps!

Office Jet Pro 8600 - need to replace white plastic ADF strip

Documents scanned on Office jet Pro 8600 have a pale streak down the right third of the page that correlates with a notch in the white plastic ADF strip. There appears to be something broken from the strip at that point. Is this strip replaceable and is so, how does one acquire one?
