Printer heads for Officejet Pro L7590

I've never had a printer with printer heads before. Can someone please explain what is good/bad about them and what kind of yield I can expect out of them since replacing them is expensive. Is the printer head that comes with the machine the same as what you buy as a replacement? I went into Staples with one request with my new printer.....direct me toward the machine that will cost me the least in ink replacement for home use, mostly b&w printing. When you just look at the price of the ink cartridges for what they yeild, it looks like a great idea to go with this machine.....I knew nothing of the printer heads though!
Thank-you.

A Printhead is the accessory that actually drops the ink on the paper. In older printers, The cartridges themselves had integrated printheads, so the ink was dropped from the cartridge itself. In this printer, the print cartridge and the printheads were made separate accessories. The ink from your ink cartridge travels to the printheads through the ink tubes, and the printhead drops it on the paper. You wont have to replace the printheads as much as the print cartridges, because the source of the ink is the cartridges, and not the printheads. You don't need to replace the printheads unless the printer tells you that there's a problem with it. You dont have to do any cleaning or maintainance on it, as the printer itself does it all. Just don't forget to replace the cartridges once they run out of ink.

Create TCP/IP Printing Port for OfficeJet Pro 8600

I need to print across a hardware firewall (from wireless to wired networks, different subnet), so I need to create a standard TCP/IP printing port in Windows 7. Does the printer use RAW on TCP port 9100 or are there other settings I need to configure?
Thanks.

Hello,
I see that you're having an issue with the printer not being able to print over a firewall.
I believe the easiest way to do this would be to unblock the ports rather than adding a printer through windows.
Router settings for HP Printers
Router should be broadcasting in “G Mode only”. This normally means turning “Mixed mode” off.
For Dual Band Routers, make sure they have disabled the 5ghz band and should only be operating on 2.4ghz
Mac filtering should be disabled
Security type should be “WPA 2 Personal”
On some routers they have a “hardware firewall”, so the below ports would need to be opened
UDP- 5353 67 80 547 53 5222 5223 5355 137 138 139 443 427 161 514 3702 5357 445 3910 Port range: 9999 - 65535
TCP- 445 80 68 8080 443 137 138 139 427 5222 5223 9100 445 515 161 9101 9102 9103 9110 9220 9290 9280 9500

Helvetica Font Available for HP Officejet Pro L7590 All-in-One Printer

I have a client that needs to use Helvetica for the HP Officejet Pro L7590 All-in-One Printer, but we are not seeing this as an option.
I assume the driver doesn't provide this font? What other options exist for using the Helvetica font with this printer?
Thanks,
Jeremy

Hi,
It should be included in Full Feature software on the following link:

OfficeJet Pro L7590 - wireless printer issue

Hi,
I have a 2008 OfficeJet Pro L7590 printer. I'm just now trying to get my printer to print wirelessly and I'm having multiple issues. I lost the disk for installation, but downloaded the installation via hp.com/support
After installing it, I tried to connect it wireslessly. On the final step, it says "
Unable to communicate with your printer. Not all diagnostic tests could be performed. Check cable connections and then retry."
I've checked all my cords and everything and they are plugged in correctly! BUT here's the thing. When I go to my start menu, and click control pannel → network and then click on a tab, such as "Network and Sharing Center, Connect to a Netowk, or set up a connection or nework. The window absolutely freezes and I'm not able to click on it at all. Also, I don't see a wireless conection icon on the bottom bar, right corner. (not sure what that's called) All i see are two computer screens and a red X ontop of them (icon)
I really need to connect my printer wirelessly, so I can use my phone, ipads and ipod touches! Please help. I've spent so many hours trying to figure this out!
HP doesn't offer me anymore help because it's out of warrenty

Hello iAliciaa.
I understand you are trying to installing your Officejet L7590 and you are receiving a message indicating "unable to communicate
with your printer". Are you connecting this printer Ethernet or wireless?
Please follow this entire HP document if you are connecting your printer using an Ethernet connection: Printer Is Not Found During Installation.
I understand completely what you are talking about, but could you verify what type of Operating System you have?

HP Officejet Pro L7590 and Mac Yosemite 10.10 printing software

I just upgraded my Mac to a mew 2014 MacBook Pro with Retina and Yosemite 10.10.1.
I want to install my old HP Officejet Pro L7590. I have the printer connected by network cable to my Comcast network hub. There is a stable connection on both ends (lights are on). 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. Thanks.

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!

Unable to install Officejet Pro L7590 print driver in Windows 8.1

I have lost days of time trying to get my OfficeJet Pro L7590 to print properly and otherwise operate in a stable manner. My computer is a new Dell XPS8700 running Windows 8, upgraded to Windows 8.1 via the "Store" app after purchase. My problems started soon after the 8.1 update.
The primary problem symptom is the printing of about a half page of text fine, then the printer spits the page out and prints several more pages of mostly blank paper with random symbols around a top or side edge. This occurs regardless of the program doing the printing, i.e., MS Word, Excel, Acrobat, etc.
I have run the Printing Doctor program many times which doesn't fix anything, despite its claims to the contrary (more below).
I have been on this forum many times and tried multiple instances of uninstall/reinstall without success. The HP Installer may make it through the whole installation process but unstable performance of the printer is the outcome. Uninstalling the printer software using HP's uninstaller ALWAYS crashes before it can finish uninstalling. I get a message of "HP Installer Uninstaller has stopped working". I would attach a screenshot here but I does not seem an option in this window.
I have run multiple versions of HP's scrubber programs which also crash by level 2 with same message. I still ran L4 regardless but that crashes, too. That's the constant of every uninstallation or scrubbing effort using HP's programs: a crash without an error message given beyond the "HP Installer Uninstaller has stopped working".
I run the Printer/Scanner Doctor tool when the software was malfunctioning and it always finds a Print Spooler problem, "fixes" it but the problem remains. This posting is coming after the "Doctor" tool told me to uninstall the program. HP's uninstaller crashed, as usual, but the I was told to use Windows Add/Remove programs to finish the job. I did. I have not tried to install the program again and am becoming close to 'Refreshing' my entire Windows program, which will require reinstalling and updating Windows and every program I use - which will take days. I hope to avoid that step.
Dell's hardware analysis utility tells me everything hardware is great!
I truly believe HP's software IS THE PROBLEM and would love to figure this out. The printer has always worked great - until the Windows 8.1 update. The scanner will work fine (usually) after I reinstall the software. I used the printer before on my prior computer running Windows 7 with no trouble.
Going into today's crash info, via Event Viewer, I have this message from the error log:
Application 'C:\Program Files (x86)\HP\Digital Imaging\bin\hpqbam08.exe' (pid 3960) cannot be restarted - Application SID does not match Conductor SID..
And this error occurred just after:

There was an earlier - about 30 minutes earlier - warning saying:
The application (HP Solution Center, from vendor Hewlett-Packard) has the following problem: To function properly, HP Solution Center must be reinstalled after you upgrade Windows.
I have reinstalled it many times. I have used HP's installation & uninstallation utilities, including the Installation failure utility, none of which install the program properly, CERTAINLY not well enough that I can EVER uninstall it without a crashed uninstallation per description above...
I think I have reviewed and tried every "canned" HP quick solution, and not so quick solution, on this forum.

HP Officejet Pro L7590 won't print correctly after it sits a few days Windows Vista USB connection

I have a HP Officejet Pro L7590 All In One. It all of a sudden will not print correctly after it sits a few days. I purchased a new black/yellow printhead recently and it did print well for about a week. If it sits a few days, it acts up again. All I have to do to fix it is take out the yellow/black printhead clean with sterile water on a q tip the printhead, put it back in, and walla it prints again until the next time I want to use the printer, and the same thing again. Today I printed out some pictures after not using the printer for 5 days, the pics had large vertical stripes in them, the stripes have colors in them. I cleaned the printhead and it worked perfectly. Any ideas. I have replaced the black cartride, and the yellow recently.
Thanks for any help

Rocky8,
This is a little outside our area of printing, but I'll try and help you the best I can. My question for you is the printer showing up under the USB menu in Parallels. If it's not showing up then you need to determine why the USB connection isn't showing up in your Parallels USB menu. This could be a couple of issues, but the one that I think might be happening is the version of the USB port your using. Can you verify that you're not connecting the printer via a USB 3.0 port. Try plugging into one of your other USB ports to see if the printer will show up in the parallels USB menu.

Hello pcmtgrl
Which model of the Officejet 8500A series do you have? Typically you can find it inside the printer where you change the ink cartridges. Example: A910g, A910a, etc.
Has anything changed recently since the problem started? Is the printer plugged into a wall outlet or a surge protector? Do you have the latest firmware installed? I also suggest running the HP Hardware Diagnostic Utility. Let me know if it finds anything out.
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" to those that help solve your problems.

HP Officejet Pro L7590 Printer - HP Solution Center does not work

I am not able to get the Solution Center suite to work because the installation has an error. I am using Windows 7 Home Premium. The printer I am installing is the HP Officejet Pro L7590.
If I go to Devices and Printers and add the printer. The driver Windows 7 driver would work, it would detect the printer and the test page and everything would be fine.
However, if I install using the software provided by HP for the L7590 it would result in an error and it would not work.
The failed driver installation is only from installing the full bundle software provided by HP, if by itself through Windows 7 it would be fine.
Because of the failed installation using HP software the HP solution center does not work.
In Devices and Printers, the printer has the yellow exclamation point requiring troubleshooting, I click on troubleshoot and no device drivers were found. In addition, I could not remove the printer. Before installing the HP software, I could successfully install the printer and there would be a green checkmark, and there would be an option to remove the printer. This leads me to believe HP has a faulty software bug that is causing the error.
I am suppose to use the HP add a printer shortcut that populated on my desktop after installing the software, the first time it would show the failure to successfully install the driver, afterwards it would not even detect my printer if it is plugged in. If I remove the usb and reinsert it, the Windows would just show the failed driver. I repeat, it failed after I install the software, it works fine without. The primary reason I want the software is to use the scanning feature.

Hello NickRT, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you are having software installation issues. i would like to try and assist you.
I would suggest Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Once it is uninstalled, I would suggest putting your system into clean boot mode within the Microsoft configuration. You can do so by following this document: How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
Once the computer is in clean boot mode, I would reinstalling the HP Officejet Pro Full Feature Software and Driver.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

HP Device Not Found Error when trying to print or scan wireless- HP Officejet Pro L7590

Have had HP Officejet Pro L7590 All-In-One Printer for years. Always worked fine and I had no issues printing via wireless connection. Several months ago.. Possibly after a Windows 8 update. From Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 I have not been able to use the printers wireless feature. When I try to print or scan it shows the printer as offline. Also get an error message that tells me "HP Imaging device is not found". I can still print when connected to USB. Cannot scan or use features of the HP software suite. I have tried several times to correct. Reloading the software and drivers several times, but no success. I just tried again and was able to print the test page wireless, so got all excited and thought I fixed it. Then tried to print something and got the same error message I have seen in the past. I have talked to certain supports saying that it may be a firewall setting within Windows. Any other suggestions? Thanks

HP OfficeJet Pro L7590 network printer

I just upgraded to v4.2.1 on my iPhone 4 and tried to use the new feature, AirPrint without success. My printer is linked using cat5 cable with my wired and wireless router and can be used with about 3-4 pcs within my family. I searched some articles and understand only a couple of HP printers can use this feature. How come Apple spend so much effort for a couple of printers of single company? I never imagined it becomes true. Did I misunderstand this feature? Thanks!

The Officejet Pro L7590 unfortunately will not be updated to support AirPrint. Check out my [FAQ|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2658560&tstart=0] thread for some other options.

HP Officejet Pro L7590 printer auto document feeder stopped working

HP Officejet Pro L7590 (Model: CB822A)

My automatic document feeder stopped working about a month or two ago. If I put a bunch of papers under the tray there is no beep/light to acknowledge that. So, I can't copy a bunch of papers at once.
Is there a recommended HP repair center/store in my area that can fix it? I'm in Bethesda, MD 20817.
Thanks

Hi @rustyblue
Although HP does not have an authorizes repair facility that I can refer you to, I have located 2 helpful documents that would allow you to troubleshoot the issue yourself;
An 'Original Jam: Clear jam, and then press OK' Message Displays for HP Officejet 6100, 7100, and D ...
Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) Does Not Pick Up Paper
If the issue persists, you can take the printer to a local mom and pop shop, or maybe call HP. HP could offer you a discount on a newer model.
If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
I hope this helps.

HP OfficeJet Pro L7590 suddenly won't print yellow ink.

My OfficeJet Pro L7590 suddenly won't print yellow ink. The cartridge isn't empty. It still prints everything else. Things that require yellow ink come out a different color (ie: green comes out blue). I've cleaned the printheads several times from the "tools" menu and the report says the printheads are in "good" condition. I've also tried soaking the printheads in hot water for 5 min like was mentioned on here. Still nothing. Any suggestions?

Hi - you've worked through all the steps in the support document here? http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01957673&tmp_task=solveCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc...
If you have, and still see bad red and green blocks on the PQ Diagnostic page (as described in the document), you may have to replace the black/yellow printhead (even if the printhead health is reported as 'good'). You can check your warranty on that printhead here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&docname=c00206040
