Ok, since you get the error "The selected printer is not present." during the installation, here is some troubleshooting that should help narrow down the cause/resolve the issue:

  • Officejet 6000 e609n cannot convert to from USB to wireless

    I am attempting to convert the connection to my Officejet 6000 E609n printer from USB to wireless (XP Pro SP3).  After going to the HP icon on my Application Menu and navigating to the “Configure Wireless Settings” the following sequence of events occur: 1) A window with the title “Installing Officejet 6000 e609n” opens.  As it opens the progress bar shows set 3 of 4.  2) A window titled “Network Setup” opens with an instruction “Temporarily connect the printer to your computer using a USB cable.”  A box in the lower left corner of the window is to be checked if you printer is already connected via USB cable.  (Mine is, and has been for some time.)  3) After checking the box and pressing NEXT, another window opens to select the printer being installed.  The HP Officejet 6000 e609n series is the only printer listed.  I select it, and press Next.) This message comes up: “Selected printer is not present. Please connect the printer and press Retry or press Cancel to select another.”  I then cancel my way out of setup.  I can print a test page and other jobs from the computer via the USB connection – no problems.  What could be causing this?  FYI I have gone thru the reset routine, no change. I could not find a similar situation on the wireless printer forms.

    I am having the same prob. No resolve yet.

  • My HP officejet 6000 E609n wireless does not print on envelopes.

    My HP officejet 6000 E609n wireless does not print on envelopes.  When I send an envelope address from the Microsoft Word envelope app, the envelope loads and then it  is send through the printer without printing on the envelope.  If instead of loading an envelope I load a plain sheet of 8x10.5 paper it will print the address as it should (side ways and on what would be an envelope).  I have had no problem printing envelope to my old DeskJet 930C with this Word envelope app.
    I load the envelopes without the 8x10.5 paper and the paper guide moved over to the edge of the envelopes up which are against the right side of the load table as indicated on the tray guide.  

    After many frustrating and fruitless attempts to solve this problem, including updating the drivers and following so many bits of advice from so many sources including contacting HP customer services by phone and email (who have not, so far, shown the courtesy of acknowledging my enquiry), I seem to have overcome the problem by cutting a piece of A4 paper along its length to a width, which when added to the envelope’s height, equals the width of an A4 sheet. For example, I use DL envelopes which have a nominal width of 110mm so the width of the piece of paper cut from A4 (which is 210 mm wide) is 100 mm. This strip is then temporarily attached to the envelope by piece of low tack tape (such as masking tape) running along and joining the paper and the envelope tabs. I feed this assembly of strip and envelope into the printer in the default position, (i.e. the envelope on the right hand side of the tray, face down with the sealing tabs on the left). The printer seems to treat this assembly as a piece of A4 and prints the address etc on the envelope correctly. The envelope is then easily detached from the tape without damage and I have found that this works many times as sufficient tack remains on the tape. I know this sounds a little complicated but it soon becomes a simple task.
    The HP Officejet 6000 printer has previously worked splendidly, printing envelopes from the Word 2007 envelopes function running on XP but has only recently malfunctioned since changing to Windows 7. For the record, I have also tried to print envelopes using the Word compatibility mode without success.

  • Officejet 6000 (E609n) won't print anything

    I'm running Windows 7, SP1 and have my E609n hooked up via usb, with the wireless off.
    My power button is flashing continuously, with no other lights coming on. Every 30 seconds or so it produces a sound that sounds like a single cycle of the roller. Print jobs spool, but the printer never changes state.  If I lift the lid the print head moves over and the power light goes solid with the paper feed light soild. When I close the lid it goes back to just the power light flashing.
    I've reset the printer with the unplug/hold power button method and reset the print spooler. When I power the printer back up it cycles normally and returns to power light flashing state when it's done booting. I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the printer from my system. No change.
    It's out of warranty, so I'm curious if there's anything else I might be able to do. Thanks.

  • HP Officejet 6000 E609n stops printing periodically on wireless network

    I have a Dell laptop with 64 bit Windows 7 on our wireless network.  I recently installed this printer on the network. It will print documents I send to it, and then suddenly subsequent documents pile up in the printer que and have "error" listed beside the document names.  When I troubleshoot this problem from the printer window, it cannot resolve the problem. The blue wireless light is not on, and pushing that button does not turn it on; I can fix it, by unplugging the printer and plugging it back in, then the blue wireless light comes on, and it prints all the documents in the que, and will continue printing new docs sent over to it for a while, and then suddenly they pile up in the que, and it will no longer print until I unplug it.  Could a firewall be the cause or what?  I get no messages from the printer telling me that the document failed to print.

    I have thesame problem with my c6180
    I have to re download the driver. then it works fine foe a while and quits. i redown load the driver and again it works for a while.
    if this keeps up i will never buu an HP again

  • HP Office Jet 6000 E609n Printer, Cannot reset network settings.

    Hello,
    I was setting up a static IP address for the HP Office Jet 6000, upon attempting to set it up. I forgot to set the default gateway to match the IP address. Now that it is set that way I cannot access the GUI for the printer. I have tried doing the reset by holding down the wireless button and pressing resume three times. I have literally unplugged it from the back and from the wall and that did not resolve the issue. Also, unplugged it and waited 30 more seconds plugged it back in and did the button reset a swell. Noone of these resolved anything I am stuck and cannot even access the controls to change the router. Help will be very much appreciated.

    You may try and do the network defaults and the factory defaults on the printer and that should reset the ip address for you. I'll try and see if i can get the combination for you for this printer. Let me know if this works or if you are still not able to get into your settings.

  • Officejet 6000

    I now only want to use this printer for black and white text. That 920 cartridge needs to be replaced, and all the color cartridges show empty as well.  I have only been printing in gray scale, and not using colors for some time. Can I only replace that black & white cartridge and forget the colors? as the latter are expensive to replace and I will not be using them?  I don't want to make that color investment if possible with this Officejet 6000 609a printer.  Thanks for any advice!

    Hi there @SAMis71 , welcome to the forums
    I understand you are looking to find out if you can print in black and white only, and have other ink cartridges empty. Unfortunately the Officejet 6600 does not have this feature.

Must shut down laptop and shut off printer or hard wire and shut off bluetooth. down loaded lastest drivers to no avail. printer will print from cell phone and win 8 computer via bluetooth but not win 7 laptop.

    Sorry you are having problems with printing from the internet.  I have a few more questions to ask you before I can be of much assistance.
    What web-browser are you using?  
    Do you have any problems printing from Word or other non-internet documents?  
    What did you do to fix your computer (system restore, clean install of the OS, etc)?  
    Have you tried an alternate web-browser?
    Make sure to install all of your Microsoft updates to see if that helps.  Otherwise, answer those questions for me please and I will be happy to help.

  • Lion server: Unable to get printer status

    I am attempting to connect a shared printer to my Lion server (for the purposes of printing documents from the server). The printer is connected to an iMac running Lion via USB and printer sharing is on. Other computers on the network are able to add and print to it fine.
    The printer adds to the printer list without issue, but when I attempt to print a document, it shows "Unable to get printer status" in the queue.  I've added/removed and reset printing system many times, but still no luck. I've also re-downloaded printer drivers from Apple and restarted the system.
    Any ideas to get this working? Thanks.

  • Cannot print wirelessly from Windows 7 (64 bit) laptop to Officejet 6000 Wireless (E609n)

    The printer is a HP Officejet 6000 Wireless (E609n) and is connected via usb to a Windows 7 (64 bit) desktop and the laptop has Windows 7 (64 bit) loaded.
    No changes were made that I'm aware of other than the usual Windows updates.
    Server is offline is displayed next to the printer icon on the laptop when printing is attempted.
    The wireless network test report shows no problems.
    I have rebooted the desktop and printer with no success.
    The laptop used to print wirelessly without a problem.

    I am not sure the Officejet 6000 can have both the wireless and USB ports active at the same time.  You could try disconnecting for the USB cable and then power cycling the printer and trying to connect wirelessly.  If you have the desktop connected to a router that also provices wireless capability you could connect the desktop with the network connection.
    One other thing you might consider is sharing the printer on your network from the desktop computer.  Next on the laptop computer do the following: go to the Devices and Printers folder, Add a Printer, Local Printer, Create a Port, Local Port, \\Computername\Printername (use the actual share name for the computer and printer), OK, then select HP (not Hewlett-Packard) for the manufacturer and select the appropriate HP Officejet 6000 series model.

    Hi CEBD,
    Thank you for your reply! As Mac OS X 10.10 was just released yesterday, there is currently no HP Software and Drivers for this Operating System! However, if your HP Officejet 6000 was previously connected to your network, all you should have to do is to add the printer as a wireless printer. Please see this guide, OS X Mavericks: Set up a printer. You can also watch this youtube video, Installing an HP Printer in Mac OS X Mavericks Using a Wired or Wireless Network Connection.
    Please see this post, Mac OS 10.10 Yosemite and HP Printer Support, by @Double-U-Dee.
    I would also take a look at this guide, 'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the Printer Does Not Print: Mac OS X, and follow the steps for 10.8 and 10.9.
    Hope this information is helpful, and have a great day!
