Problem with HP Officejet 8620 (just bought it) not sure if Printer or wireless issue.

Alright so hopefully I have put this in the right forum.
I just bought an HP Officejet 8620, and set it up. It printed the test pages fine yet upon trying to print homework it would dissapear in the Print Queue while saying it was "printing". Thus nothing has come out of the printer except test pages so I am in a bit of a bind.
Now the computer brought up a trouble shoot issue stating "problem with wireless network".
To give some back ground on this issue our previous printer HP Officejet 6500A about a month ago starting printing abnormally slow, and eventually reached a crawl not doing anything. 
So im not totally lost, yet as of now do not know what is going on. 

Hello Libertine74,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having some connectivity issues when attempting to print wireless.
Please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
I have also located a document that deals with when the Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection.
Please feel free to write me back if you have any other questions or concerns.
Cheers,

  • Problem with the Officejet 6500A. WIA driver not recognized

    I can't scan from my printer to my computer. I did a diagnostic and it failed on the WIA scan. On the printer it says it doesn't recognize the OCR or it lost a connection but I have it connected with a usb. Can I download a new driver for it or do I have to do a full factory restore? I looked online at forums where other people have the same problem and that was the only solution I found.
    I have an HP Pavilion dv7 laptop and an OfficeJet 6500A. I would really appreciate a solution to this.

    I have the HP 6500A Plus and a HP WINDOWS 7 laptop, and the scan function stopped working properly after a year, and I had the exact error messages you did. I could not scan to computer. It took me two days to find the solution. The WIA, or windows image acquisition wasn't running. Before you begin, if windows fax and scan is also disabled, go to control panel and click on PROGRAMS, then click TURN WINDOWS features on and off within Programs and Features. If windows fax and scan is working skip this step. Under PRINT & DOCUMENT SERVICES, make sure that two boxes are checked: INTERNET PRINTING CLIENT AND WINDOWS FAX AND SCAN.
    Here is the sequence to activate WIA:
    Click or press windows icon or start at lower left bottom:
    In the search box type SERVICES, THEN ENTER. When the screen appears click on SERVICES (LOCAL) in the left column.. When this opens scroll down to WIA, it should be on AUTOMATIC AND RUNNING, and if possible start it. This is what I could not do, as I kept getting error message 1068. But I learned there are 2 other services that WIA needs to function properly. ALL THREE HAVE TO BE STARTED AND ON AUTOMATIC.
    Scroll down to : REMOTE PROCEDURE CALL, THEN SHELL HARDWARE DETECTION, see if they are STARTED or on AUTOMATIC. When I activated the shell hardware detection I went back to WIA and it started, and I no longer got the error message. This last one is the one that solved the enigma, and the Scan to Computer worked immediately, as did windows fax and scan. Take your time as I did, as I am not a computer wizard, and it should solve the dilemma.

  • My 5th generation iPod (bought in April of 2013) will quit unexpectedly. It will take for ever to load what I write while texting. It also just goes to the black screen with the Apple logo. I'm not sure what to do.

    My 5th generation iPod (bought in April of 2013) will quit unexpectedly. I can't do app store apps (like snapchat or facebook, ect.) or apple apps (like Camera, Safari, ect.)It will take for ever to load what I write while texting. It also just goes to the black screen with the Apple logo. I'm not sure what to do.

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
    If the issue persists...

  • Vine.co can not watch videos on other browsers do not have the problem with firefox firefox there just did not work, delete cookies, history

    vine.co can not watch videos on other browsers do not have the problem with firefox firefox there just did not work, delete cookies, history

    I think this problem may be caused by Yahoo's changes making it incompatible with the klatest version of FireFox.
    This is suddenly affecting many many people who use Firefox and are members of Yahoo Groups. All these people say they themselves changed nothing and have not been locked out before when using Firefox. But suddenly, within the last week, they are.
    What did Mozilla do or what did Yahoo do to cause this problem? I can say that I was not blocking cookies and after trying a number of things to fix it, I went to Yahoo's home page and navigated to my group from here.
    This problem is not anything a user did. Either Firefox is at fault or Yahoo is. I want to know which company is at fault and when they are going to fix it.

  • Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "

    Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
    i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

    Hi There
    Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
    Solution to working You Tube app:
    -Go to playstore
    - Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
    - "Et Voila", working again.
    This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
    Hope it helped.
    Best Regards

    How do I get the printer working again?

    Hello white2012.
    It would help knowing how the printer is connected to the computer (USB, Ethernet cable, Wifi).
    Is there any error message shown in the computer or in the printer?

  • I just bought a router WRT54G and a Compact wireless-G

    i just bought a router WRT54G and a  Compact wireless-G and by the time to connect them it seems that both things work correctly but there are two icons that show if u are connect to the internet, so here is the problem one icon says that my connection is excellent, but the other ones says that my connectivity is limited or there is not connectivity at all.
    What should i do to fix that problem i've tried everything i think but nothing happened?

    Is the "limited connectivity" icon the icon for your ethernet card (which presumably is not plugged in, and therefore has no connectivity) ?  If so, then this icon is reporting its connection correctly.  You do not need to fix it.

  • I have problem with my iphone 4s my battery is not keeping charge. how can I get help with this one. it is less than a year that I purchased this cell.

    I have problem with my iphone 4s my battery is not keeping charge. how can I get help with this one? it is less than a year that I purchased this cell.

    I would like to know the answer to that one.  I realized this was happening just after upgradeing my iOS to 6.  Then when I looked up my purchase date, I was about 5 days past my one year warranty.  So I'm dead in the water.  Apple will replace the battery, but it will be about $80+.  I took it to the Apple store, and they checked a bunch of stuff, but said that it seemed ok.  I'm debating getting a battery for a more reasonable price off of ebay.  But if it's the iOS thats draining the battery, then I'm not going to be able to help it.  I wish I knew a better way to tell if its the battery, the phone, or the iOS.
