Officejet Pro L7650 - Mac OS 10.5.7

I have a few printing problems - I keep cleaning the printheads without getting the desired results. I continue to have white lines in the cyan and green cloroed blocks. - Do I need new printheads? If so - I can't find a place on HP to order them.
Also, How do I change the default preferences on printing. The scale is always set at 120% which is a bummer because I have to take the time to change it to 100% every time I want to print. Can anyone help with these issues?

I finally got around to rearranging and backing up partitions. Updated to 10.5.7 on a non live partition and then booted into it. Don't have any problems with CS3 ID, IL or PS. And no problem with CS4 ID, IL, PS. Does appear to have fixed the OpenGL problems with the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT video card and PSCS4. I will say on the main workstations I have not updated a live booted partition in years. Seems like there are nothing but problem trying to update a live partition.
As to the monitor profile being introduced into the RGB print flow from ID PS3 and 4. Problem still there and still not fixed. But of course you can use Print as Bitmap or if your running a Canon printer with selectable Fast Graphic Process in the driver you can print correct output this way.

Do you have a wireless router or do you want a direct wireless connection between your PC and printer? A wireless router is a much preferred method.

HP Officejet Pro L7580- here's a new one for HP Mac Architect

So like all the other disgruntled HP users who foolishly installed 10.5 when it was released, I have been without a scanner ever since. Until three days ago, however, I've been able to print, as the driver for the L7580 was included in Leopard. Now, whenever I try to print a document, the print queue opens and the job says "stopped", which, incidentally, is the same thing that happens when I send a print job to my other once-was-a-printer-now-just-a-giant-waste-of-space, the Canon LBP5000. I've racked my brain trying to think if I've done something to trigger this, pestered the HP call in support center, installed, uninstalled and installed the printer again, restarted, replaced the USB cable- anything I can think of. Nothing works. I run a small business and while it's been a huge inconvenience to lose my not so inexpensive scanner, I've made due with an old one waiting for HP to get their act together and release software that actually works with 10.5. Needless to say, I cannot work without a printer. Am I going to have to go back to Tiger now? Spend untold thousands of dollars on a printer that probably won't work with leopard anyway? Can anyone advise? HP Mac Architect?

Try this for a Quick Fix ...........
After reading other forum comments from people having the same problem with the yellow cartridge popping-out, combined with others who have realised that HP have no interest in compensating anyone for this rediculous example of, at best, 'bad design', or at worst 'blatent planned obsolescence', I have created a 'quick fix' that may add another 1, 2 or more years of life to the HP Officejet Pro L7580 Printer.
This is not the elegant technical solution I was hoping for. However, in hindsight, it may prove to be a more reliable solution than replacing the faulty part that is actually causing the problem. So, here it is the Quick Fix ........
I found a wooden triangular door stop that I cut to size that fitted exactly in the space between the plastic door and the offending yellow cartridge. To hold it in place, I wrapped the doorstop with 2" cellotape, then I stuck the door stop to the inside of the plastic door with double sided cellotape (double sided stick-on foam would also work well). With the doorstop in the correct place, the plastic door closed perfectly and was snug enough to apply sufficent pressure to the offending yellow cartridge, and hence stopping it from popping out again. To make sure the plastic door does not 'fly open' with the pressure of the yellow cartridge (when it wants to pop out!), I applied another piece of 2" cellotape around the outside of the door, holding it to the body of the photocopier.
This exercise only took 10-15 mins to do. I feel this is a much better option than spending another $300+ on a new All-in-One system, as well as being a good environmental solution. If this is DELIBERATE 'planned obsolescence', companies like HP need to be more accountable for, at best, 'sloppy design'. Any feedback would be appreciated.

HP Officejet Pro 8610 Add Printer issue on Mac

I purchased the HP Officejet Pro 8610 and cannot get it successfully set up on my MacBook Pro (operating OS X 10.7.5). During the "Add Printer" phase, I receive the following error message: "The software for this printer is currently unavailable. Please contact the printer's manufacturer for the latest software".
I've downloaded and completed the steps up to this point by using the link from install CD (HP-Officejet-Pro-8610_v12.32.0.dmg) and by downloading after unsuccessfully troubleshooting from the HP webite (HP-Officejet-Pro_8610_12.32.0-2.dmg).
Can you please assist in determing what my next step should be?

Hi,
First reboot your Mac, then click the Apple icon and select Software Update.
From the listed app store click the Store menu and then on Repload Page.
Be sure to install any listed HP or Apple update.
Once you are done, open Print & Scan and try adding the printer again.
May you see any difference?

Unable to scan from my HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus to my Mac iOS 10.10

Just purchased a new Mac and running Yosemite. Tried adding my 8600 and it prints but will not scan. When attempting to scan to computer, a message "The HP software required for Scan to Computer could not be located on this computer. Please download and install the latest HP recommended software for your device from http://www.hp.com/support, and then try again." When I follow the link, it directs me to download the driver again.....and the cycle begins. I have tried completely uninstalling everything according to previous suggestions in the forum but nothing has helped.
I'm a new Mac user but just can't understand why this would work on my PC and not the new Mac.
This question was solved.

Hi castagmc,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue when attempting to get the new Yosemite driver installed for the printer.
I do have some suggestions that we can try in the attempt to troubleshoot this issue.
First off, please remove the usb cable from the printer and from the Mac and leave it disconnected until further notice.
I have a link that I am going to give you that gives detailed instruction for Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Once the uninstall is complete, please restart the Mac to have the changes take affect.
When the Mac is back up and running, disable any anti virus protection you may running. We do not want anything getting in the way when we reinstall.
The next step is to download and install the HP Officejet Pro 8600 series Full Feature Software and Drivers.
The installation will prompt you as to when to connect the usb cable so please do not connect it before hand.
Please feel free to write me back if you have any other questions.
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.

Mac OSX 10.9 and HP Officejet Pro 8100 Compatibility

Can we please get a driver for the HP Officejet Pro 8100 that is compatible with the Mac OSX 10.9? I bought the printer so that my roommate and I could share it to print wirelessly, but I am unable to do that without a compatible driver. Please develop one as soon as possible!
Thanks!

Hi,
The Drivers are available via Apple Software Update,
In order to configure it wirelessly you may use the HP Easy Wireless Install app.
You may find a step by step guide in the following document:
h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/kb/docDisplay/?sp4ts.oid=4337543&spf_p.tpst...
The app iself can be downloaded from the Mac App Store:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hp-easy-wireless-setup/id876495880?mt=12
If you experience any issues while trying to locate the pritner during the wireless configuration. restoring the network defaults for the printer can be done by pressing and holding both the Cancel ( ), the Wireless ( ), and the Power ( ) buttons for three seconds.

Shlomi

HP Officejet Pro L7590 and Mac Yosemite 10.10 printing software

What software do I download to install the printer? Is it not available for Yosemite yet? Where is it located? I'm assuming its not available for Yosemite yet? I don't have the original software.

Hi @rustyblue,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
Currently there are no full feature software and drivers directly through HP for Mac OS X 10.10 for this particular printer model. However, after some searching I found this driver directly through Apple. HP Printer Drivers v3.0 for OS X.
If you need help with scanning without HP software, please see this post, Re: iMac OS X 10.9.3 Scan to iMac Driver for HP OfficeJet Pro 8500A A910a does not seem to exist, by my colleague @Sunshyn2005. Even though this post is for Mac OS X 10.9.3 and a different printer, these steps will work for your printer on 10.10 as well.
Hope this helps you get up and running, please let me know if you have any further issues!

I have my HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 A connected to my Mac Book Pro on a Wireless network. It works and

I have my Hp Officejet Pro 8500 A connected to my MAc Book Pro which is running Lion OS on a wireless network. It works just fine and prints and everything. The problem is a "HP Utility" window that pops up on my screen and says it is "connecting to device" and lists my printer. It just runs and runs and the entire thing is gray - meaning I can't close it, cancel it, or anything. When you try to click on it, the arrow becomes the color wheel of death. It is driving me crazy. I have gone through settings, I have downloaded the latest drivers, I have looked in utilities, I have opened the printer folder and can't find where this thing is coming from or how to turn it off. Please help. And yes I have turned offf the computer and rebooted.

If you are using Snow Leopard or Lion and have HP software for pre-Snow Leopard (either from a CD not marked as compatible with 10.6 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard or Lion and had the HP software on your Mac before you upgraded - even if you did a standard uninstall of the old software or installed new software over the top of it) you must uninstall the software using the 'scrubber' option:
Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller
Click on Continue
Highlight your device on the left pane
Press and hold Control + Alt + Cmd keys on the keyboard simultaneously while you click on Uninstall <<<< This IS the Scrubber Option, there is no button labeled "Scrubber"
There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
Click Continue and let it finish
Restart your Mac
Download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
Now reset the printing system:
- Sys Prefs, Print & Fax
- Right (control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
- Select the plus sign to re-add it. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
If you want more features, you can download and install the Full Featured software from the "Support & Drivers" button at the top of this page, otherwise, basic printing and scanning will work without it.

HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus - "Scan to Computer" issue on Mac OSX 10.8 or 10.9

Hi...
I have started experiencing the notorious "scan to computer not working" issue on my 1-month OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus, after having used the feature a number of times flawlessly.
There are a lot of potential solutions mentioned in dozens of relevant posts for both Mac and Windows, e.g.:
"Failed to open a session on the device"...
Scan to computer does not work...
Problem scanning to computer with an 8600 wireless
Unable to enable print to computer...
Enable Scan to Computer - Communication Error
Officejet Pro 8600 Utility does not show my Mac computer in scan settings
A 'Connection Error' or 'No Computer Detected' Error Message Displays during Scanning
HP Wireless All-in-One Printers - Communication Error between the Scanner and Your Computer...
Etc.
However, in my case, no solution works, after several frustrating hours of trying to fix the issue, in Mac OS X Mountain Lion (10.8), or after upgrading to Maverics (10.9).
The behavior of the device points to a software issue, since:
The printer is visible on the network
The print function has been working fine
The HP Scan function works
The generic Scan function from System Preferences works (although in earlier times it did not, or it stopped working soon after invoking it)
The "Scan to Computer" option does not appear in the HP Utility screen (although occasionally, after random sequences of unistalling and installing the software, it reappears)
The HP Installer crashes before completing the installation (this is a latest symptom, apparently happening before unvoking the HP Setup Assistant, which still works fine)
As already mentioned, I have tried all possible solutions, including software and firmware updates, Apple drivers, HP drivers (full featured software), clean (un)installations, followed by computer and printer restarts. Nothing seems to work.
The "Scan to Computer" feature of the 8600 always works on my Windows 7 laptop, after initial configuration.
The next step will be returning the device for a refund, but before resorting to that, I am giving it a last chance, in (the unlikely) case there is something new I have not tried yet.
Thanks,
PNS

Connect an Officejet Pro Plus 6500 to a new mac running Yosemite

If you are having a problem connecting an HP Officejet Pro Plus 6500 to a new mac running Yosemite, (10.10.1) this is what to do.
Go to HP and get this driver
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4182&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&s w_lang=&product=4323648#N191
Run application:
If you don't see your printer listed (and the progress bar goes about half way (but just seen to stay in the same place without finishing up) - hit the manual button and type in the ip address. It can be found on your printer by going to SETUP (in printer window) then to Network then to VIEW NETWORK SUMMARY then to WIRELESS. You will then see the IP address you need to type in manually.
Type it in and continue to follow instructions to put the driver.
Hope that helps.

Will my HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless work with the new Mac OS Lion

My experience with upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion is that the OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless will print just fine, although it seems to take a little longer to find the printer on the network. My scan function however locks up and will not work. This really is an annoyance, though, since I have VueScan, which works fine with Lion.
Hopefully, Apple and HP will not orphan the OS native scanning feature for HP multifunction printers.
