Officejet 6500 Envelope Printing

I am having a difficult time printing a 5-3/4" x 8-3/4" envelope using Word. I have used custom settings and nothing works. Didn't have this problem with my HP Photosmart that I unfortunately gave away. I need to print over 100 envelopes for wedding invitations. Need help please.

Hello EWSOPM
I would agree its as if its setup to be a "Shared printer". I would suggest trying this setup article "Setting up Officejet 6500 with Wifi". If you need the latest driver you can find them at the "Officejet 6500 Software" page. Of course uninstall the printer from you laptop before re-installing. Also is your printer connected to the router via cable or wireless?
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" to those that help solve your problems.

How can I print to my HP OfficeJet 6500 Wireless Printer from my iPhone 4S which used to work before AirPrint printers were even available? (running Mac Lion OS, all software and HP sw updates are all performed)

How can I print to my HP OfficeJet 6500 Wireless Printer from my iPhone 4S which used to work (on prior iPhones) before AirPrint printers were even available? (running Mac Lion OS, all software and HP sw updates are all performed)
I don't get it, I read one post about why would we have to buy an AirPrint Printer when we have used the "print to a wifi printer" just fine in the past? Yes I feel that's exactly what's happening to me now too. I want to print from my iPhone and iPad to my WiFi Printer which is also now connected to my Airport Express WiFi network just fine. No problems.

Very glad you added that bit of information because I see different problems similar to this. I want to share with them what you did and hopefully you not only fixed your specific problem but you can lend some more advice to others with problems like this. Thanks!

HP Officejet 6500 E709n printer - black ink not printing

I have an HP Officejet 6500 E709n printer and for some reason the black ink is not printing. The color cartridges work fine. I even changed the black cartridge, cleaned and aligned the print heads, uninstalled and reinstalled the printer, but nothing fixed the issue. I was wondering if the color management profile has something to do with this. Please help!
Thanks!

I am experiencing the same problem. I too, have tried installing a new black ink catridge, taking out the printer head and cleaning it by hand, cleaning the printer head using the HP software, doing a partial reset, doing a hard reset and nothing. Black does not print out at all, whether it's an alignment page, quality report or something from my own files (Word, Excel, PDF, etc). The black does not appear at all. Can someone PLEASE help solve this problem?
Thank you

Compatibility Windows XP HP officejet 6500 (E709) printer with new HP Pavilion

I just purchased a HP Pavilion 23 all-in-one. The store where I bought it said that they could not set up my HP Officejet 6500 (E709) printer because it was not compatible with the new Windows installed on the Pavilion. The CD for the printer says Windows XP, Vista Version 12.00 on the label. I hate to give up a perfectly good printer just because it is not compatible with the new PC. Is there a fix for this or was the technician just not looking in the right place for the driver.

Here is a link for the 6500 E709a drivers.
There are a few E709 models, so if yours is not a E709a model post back with the correct model #.

How to print doc from my kindle fire to a hp officejet 6500 wireless printer

I have a kindle fire and a hp officejet 6500 wireless printer. How do I connect the 2 and print a document that is on my kindle? They are both in the same house

Hi,
Please try:
From a supported app, find the Print option from the app's menu, and then tap Print .
Find the option to select your printer. The Kindle device displays a list of printers that are available on the Wi-Fi network.
Find your printer on the Wi-Fi list, and then tap to select it. Once you select the printer, your device remembers the selection.
If your printer is not on the Wi-Fi list or if you want to use the wireless direct connection method instead, find your printer on the Wireless Direct list, and then tap to select it. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the connection. Once your printer is connected, your device remembers the selection.
Make any changes to the available printing options, if desired.
Tap Print to send the print job to the printer.
Pleae note: Only "Fire OS 3.0 (Mojito) devices such as the Kindle Fire HD and Kindle Fire HDX tablets support Printing from Kindle."

HP Officejet 6500 E709a Printer - Wireless Networking Problem

Hello, I hope you can help me with networking my Officejet 6500 printer. I tried connecting it to my Dishnet wireless router via the USB connection. There is a Netgear N300 wireless router connected to the Dishnet router. I am running Windows 7 Home Edition 64 bit.
When I open up HP Solutions Center, and select Network Settings, I get the error, "This product has not been configured for networking. No network settings are available." I printed out a network configuration page but it says the network status is offling and the EWS shows http://0.0.0.0. I have powered down everything (computer, printer, routers), and still get the same error. I tried running the HP Print and Scan Doctor but it did not fix the issue.
Besides the desktop, I have 2 other laptops that I would like to be able to print wirelessly from. Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi DawnAZ,
I'd like to help. I have some questions. Are you sure you have 2 routers? I'm not saying you don't, but it is not typical. Most often, a router is connected to a modem. The Internet signal comes in to the modem and then transmitted to the network through the router. I'm wondering if the Dishnet device is a modem and the Netgear is the router for your network.
The connection from the printer to the router would be through an Ethernet cable. A usb cable would not work for this connection. I am going to insert an image to this post so you can see where the Ethernet cable needs to be plugged in to the printer so you can be sure it is plugged in to the correct port.
I'm thinking that the printer should be connected to the Netgear with the Ethernet cable and another Ethernet cable should go from the Netgear to the modem. Let me know if you what you think.
The yellow plug is in the Ethernet port.
Also, remember a click on the Kudos star to the left is a quick "Thanks" for a helpful post.

Officejet 6500 duplex printing paper jam

Every time I run duplex printing, paper stucks inside duplexing unit. It just gets smashed.
Is there a solution for that?

I have just bought an OfficeJet 6500 and am also having major problems if I try to use automatic duplex printing. The first side prints ok then waits a while to dry but when it tries to print the second side the printer jams every time. When I remove the duplexing unit the paper is always concertina'ed between the unit and the rollers inside the printer. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be really grateful! This is one of the features I was hoping to make use of.

Officejet 6500: All print jobs (except copies) come out with black smudged background. Fixes?

I have an Officejet 6500.: All print jobs (except copies) come out with dark black smudged background and the text is also smudged. Any suggestions? Thx

FYI, for Black not printing on OJ 6500 ...
If the printer is out of warranty it may be worth following the suggestion in this post re. soaking the Printhead. Note it's important to switch the printer off at the Power button rather than just plugging out at the wall (as otherwise the Printhead won't get capped properly and may dry out)

Wireless officejet 6500 duplex printing issue

duplex printing works fine until i have a document that is 6, 8, 10 pages long. that's when duplex printing would be the most efficient. but after 2-4 pages, it stops, the printer displays a "print cancelled" message & i have to start over where it left off. then i can get another 2-4 pages.
i recently did my win7 upgrade (from vista) but that has not helped any.
what makes it stop in the middle??

HP OfficeJet 6500: Duplex printing

Hello,
I've just bought a HP OJ 6500 and after recognizing the shipped-with CD contains "up to 10.5" software and drivers only I downloaded 10.6 software from HP.
I installed the software and added the printer in system settings.
When choosing appropriate driver, software update started and downloaded HP drivers from Apple.
Now I'm unable to print duplex.
No matter if I activate the checkbox or manually select double-sided printing in Layout settings, sheets are always printed one-sided.
Any hint or advice on how to fix this?
Thanks in advance,
Peet

Hello again.
Downloaded and (re-?)installed HP PrinterDriver Update 2.4.1 from Apple download and now it seems to work ... At least this time it warned me duplex is not available with "border-less" (or "margin-less"? In my German installation it's "Randlos A4") printing. Switching to normal paper size, with no special options set, and enabling duplex it worked.
Bye,
Peet
