Printing Faces on Officejet pro 8600 Printer

I am using WIN Vista and printing from Photoshop Elements. Why do faces sometimes print elongated from actual photo?

Hi there,
This sounds unusual. Have you tried to print directly from within windows? If it prints ok from within windows then it points towards a print setting within Photoshop.

After installing latest OS update I can no longer print from my iPad to my HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer. Any suggestions?

After installing latest OS 5.1 update I can no longer print to my HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer?   Suggestions?

Installing the new os may have tricked one of the three devices involved. If it used to work, it will again.
Reboot the printer.   Reboot the router. On the pad, general, reset, reset network connections.
Make sure all the devices are on the same wifi network.   Talk nice to it.

AirPrint is an iOS 5 protocol. It is not used on the Mac or Lion. What you *can* do is add the wireless printer to you network and print from the mac using that.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Printer - help for office environment/wireless network

I'm an HP person (i.e., laptob, printer, etc.). Our office had a Brothers (sorry) MFC 9840 and with it we had a desktop app that would allow us to scan, copy and fax from our personal computers. Needless to say that printer died and I bought the office an HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer. Because the aforementioned capabilities existed, the staff would like them for our new HP printer. I didn't see these capabillities on the support disk. Did I miss it? Can you help. Thanks (because I can not believe the HP would put out such great products without this capability).

Hi there,
Could you provide the community with a little more information to help narrow troubleshooting? What operating system are we using?

Unable to Communicate with Printer. HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g

Unable to Communicate with Printer. HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g {Removed for privacy}
I cant even connect to the printer on IE, Firefox I get in just fine.
I have it set to only warn of ink when printing so what fix won't work
I noted my Firmware
I am on Win 7 64 bit

Are you receiving any error messages when you print from the desktop? Its possible the print spooler is having issues which is not pushing the jobs to the printer. Lets restart the print spooler to get any old jobs that could be stuck in the queue removed.
1. Press the start orb in the bottom left on the screen.
2. Click on "Run"
3. Type "services.msc" (without the quotes)
4. Locate the Print Spooler service in the right column
5. Click restart on the service link on the left
After it restarts the spooler go ahead and retry printing. Let me know if this works.
Thanks,
Sean

Printing wirelessly on officejet pro 8600 plus

I have recently purchased an e printer (Officejet pro 8600 plus). I have set it up on my laptop as well as mobile phone. I have printed photos from my phone, emails from my phone, emails from my laptop, word documents and excel documents from my laptop. It will only print sometimes. I think it may have to do with the printer going to sleep. On my mobile phone, I get a message saying ePrint job delayed because the printer is turned OFF or not connected to Internet. Well, it is on. When I actually go to the room where the printer is located, if I touch the screen and press Apps, sometimes, the printer says "connection error", unable to connect to the server. Other times when I have done this, it does make the connection. It seems that if I wake up the printer, I can eventually get something to print. But that defeats my purpose of the wireless capability. Can you help?

I will need some more information in order to help out. What make and model of router do you have? Does it ever fail regular wireless jobs sent from the computer to the printer? Or is it just ePrint jobs that it fails/delays? Also what is the IP address for the printer?

Waiting for printer to respond officejet pro 8600

I am suddenly getting a message when I try to print from any Microsoft Office 2010 program to my Officejet Pro 8600. It says, "Waiting for pinter to respond". It only flashes on the PC screen for a few seconds, but then it takes a long time for the printer to come to life and get started printing the document.
In addition, I had one Word document that was taking forever to print. Both issues started a few days ago. The document is mostly a drawing, with a bit of text. It used to print just fine. I deleted the document, made a new scan of the drawing, added the text and saved it to a new folder in case there was a problem with the destination folder. Nothing happened. I tried doing the same thing making it a Publisher document. Same thing happened. Every other document prints fine (except for the wait time for it them begin) I uninstalled/reinstalled the printer and drivers, did a repair of the Office software. No change.
I downloaded and ran the HP Print & Scan Doctor. It found no problems.

Hey @sldmsh,
Thanks again for getting back to me. After some additional digging I did find this Microsoft Support document that seems to describe what you're experiencing:
The size of the EMF spool file may become very large when you print a document that contains lots of...
There is a suggested fix under the Resolution section of the document that you can try. By enabling the 'Print directly to the printer' feature you avoid spooling print jobs.
Should the issue still occur I would recommend that you reach out to Microsoft Support for additional guidance.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 - Print Preview is not available

I have a new HP Officejet Pro 8600 AIO printer that I purchased last week. I hooked it up to print in a network environment. I have thee window xp systems and three windows 7 systems printing to it with no issues.I am very happy with it. Yesterday my wife told me that when she printed she missed the print preview that our former printer had. I thought I would easily get into the HP 8600 printer program and setup the print preview option. To my surprise after checking in numerous areas and online, I found out that it looks like the option has been left out or not provided for the printer by HP. I realize the MS Office and many other programs have their own print preview however when being online with Google Chrome or Internet Explorer, you quickly realize that the option to select the pages you want to print and not print could save alot of wasted paper and ink. Someone please tell me that a print preview software option is in the works for this otherwise great printer! I can not imagine leaving this out of the printing software package provided.

Since HP isn't answering me on the 'Print Preview' being available soon or which HP printers software actally HAVE the 'print preview' function enabled... I did some searching and I found a partial answer to the 'print preview' delema. The web site http://www.obviousidea.com/windows-software/greencloud-printer/
has a free program called GreenCloudPrinter which, in a nut shell, will install a printer? called GreenCloud which set itself up as the default printer and any file that is sent to the printer gets directed to the GreenCloud device which will then bring up a 'print preview' screen with options to remove blank pages and or print or not print the preview! And a lot of other functions too. Works great and it's free. You do have to register it and a registration code is emailed to you to unlock the program. I hope that helps you out... worked for me.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 print with depleted cartridges

The HP Officejet Pro 8600 User Guide says:
"The printer can operate with one or more depleted cartridges. However, printing with depleted cartridges slows the printer and affects the quality of printed documents. If the black cartridge is depleted, blacks are not as dark. If a color cartridge is depleted, output is in grayscale. When possible, replace the depleted cartridge. Do not remove the depleted cartridge until you have a new ink cartridge available to replace. "
But the printer does not print with an depleted yellow cartridges. Do I have to change some settings? Or how can I make the printer print my document without replaceing the yellow cartridges?

I am annoyed. There is nothing on page 91 of my manual to indicate that there needs to be ink in all cartridges. I can understand now why it won't print when one is empty, but one of the reasons I bought this printer is because it is supposed to print black only when up to 2 cartridges are depleted. My manual (page 90) says:
"The printer can operate with one or more depleted cartridges. However, printing with

What exactly is your printer model? The verbage of the above is that for an IPH printer (with a black and a tri-color cartridge or perhaps a black, tri-color and photo cartridge), it does not apply to printers with separate ink supplies and printheads. Can you give a link to the manual online, or scan the page and post it here for your printer?
I can find several manuals online but not the one that I have and I don'tknow how to upload anything here. I have copied and pasted the relevant information from "my" manual, which has a black cover, says Officejet Pro in green, and says 8600 User Guide in white. I can see the other information in other manuals which explains about printing with LOW ink but not with NO ink. If you can tell me how to upload "my" manual, I'd be happy to do so. Meanwhile, here's what I've copied and pasted, and thanks for your interest.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 - Printer is on Network but not Discoverable with Typical Discovery Method

Hi all.
I need help! I have fought with this printer (HP Officejet Pro 8600) for about an hour. The error message I get says that the printer is on my network but is not discoverable using the typical network discovery method. I can set it up using the IP address (and will), but we frequently reset the router, and I don't want to deal with the printer everytime I do this. I figured it was something with the Windows firewall. I temporarily disabled it and tried again - nothing different. I am also running AVG free edition, but it does not have a firewall. Any help is appreciated! Forgot to add... I'm running Windows 7.

Hi Kelly,
The printer should be able to reconnect to the router by itself after the router is reset. Why do you have to reset the router? It might be part of the issue with the printer.
There are multiple ways for the software to discover the printer. There could be a setting in the router or even software services in the computer that are causing the normal methods to not work.
After you reset the router, does the printer not reconnect? The blue wireless light would continually blink if the printer cannot reconnect to the router after the reset.

Trouble w/ Wireless Printing to HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Using Time Capsule

Hi there –
My Setup:
New MacBook Pro
Comcast Internet (Wireless Router)
2TB Time Capsule (Setup as "New Network" and connected to wireless router via Ethernet WAN)
HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 All-In-One (Wireless - not wired connection - and using Wireless Direct)
I am trying to let the HP Printer be wireless only. When I run on the Comcast wireless network using the SSID and Password of our default home network (not using new Time Capsule network), I can print from all my devices (MBP, iPhone, etc) wirelessely just fine.
When I create the new Wireless network using the Time Capsule, and configure the printer with the SSID and password, I cannot connect to the printer.
Should the configuration be different in the case where I use the TC network?
I have also tried setting up the HP printer as a WPS Printer, and I had the same results...nothing.
Anyone have any advice?
Thanks!
Daniel

Do you mean at the Comcast Wireless gateway?
No .. from what you wrote the Comcast works ok .. it is the TC that is not working.
That is correct?
Is the TC in bridge mode.. but creating a wireless network?? That is how it should be connected and wireless should be different name to the comcast if you are trying to troubleshoot.
If the network name on the TC is compliant then the printer should connect..
Turn off the wireless security on the TC to see if it is the problem.
Once you complete this setup it is very important for you to reboot the whole network.. restart in correct order.. modem.. TC .. clients.. 2min gap.
Then make sure all the clients are connecting to the wireless on the TC not the wireless from the comcast.

Webscan problem with HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer and OS Mavericks

I have an iMac with OS 10.9 Mavericks installed and an HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus N911g printer. I recently downloaded the "HP-Inkjet-SW-OSX-Mavericks_v12.34.37" software update from the HP website but, since installing it, the image preview feature on Webscan now only shows a black screen and I cannot download the scanned image. I have uninstalled the update and reinstalled the old software - "Officejet-Pro-8600_v12.23.0" but the problem persists.
I am not sure if this is an HP problem or a Mavericks bug. Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated

The servicing when the printer is turned on is normal and is required to keep the printheads healthy (not clogged). See here for information.
As for power savings, the printer will automatically go into a low power mode when not printing for some time. It is not necessary to turn the product off and on to save power.
