UNable to connect 2nd HP laptop to Officejet Pro 8610

I have 2 HP laptops each with Win7 (64 bit) SP1 and I am trying to connect the 2nd  laptop to an OfficeJet Pro8610 to print wirelessly.  I  have tried using the CD rom and downloading the drivers online but I cannot connect this laptop to the printer.  I reach a point where the conncection process requires the printers claim id code but when I enter the code I have a message that this code is already in use (the other laptop is connected wirelessly) and in order to connect I must delete the other laptop.  I'm at a loss here because I had connected both of the same laptops to my old OfficeJet 6700 and could print wirelessly from each without any setup issues at all. What am I missing here with the 8610??  Thanks Alkymst 

The code you are entering is likely for setting up the ePrint email address for the printer.  Once this has been done it is not necessary to do it again.   An alternative is that the laptop is connected directly to the printer wirelessly with wireless direct.  In this case you would need to disconnect the laptop from the printer to use the other laptop.  A better setup would be to connect the printer to your router wither wirelessly or by a hardwired LAN cable.  This would give the printer an IP address that you can find by touching the printer front panel (if the printer is in sleep mode), then touch the wireless icon at the bottom of the screen.  This will bring up the wireless LAN status where you can find the IP address of the printer. You should be able to set the printer up with the driver install wizard available from http://www.hp.com/go/tools.

  • Hp officejet pro 8610 - Unable to connect to server

    Hello. I bought a printer hp officejet pro 8610. I have a home worth router Zyxel Keenetik. My laptop and smartphone access to the Internet via a router (to access the Internet proxy server is not required). I set up the printer on a wireless connection. Configured to print from a laptop to a local network - this works fine. And now trying to set up ePrint, but faced with the problem - I can not run a web-service on the printer. The message - "Unable to connect to server". I downloaded from HP new version of firmware for the printer and installed it, but the problem remained.

    Hi,
    Try setting a manual public DNS as following and check if that may help:
    Open the Network tab within the printer's web page.
    Select IPv4 within the Wireless section.
    Select a Manual IP, then click the Suggest an IP button and allow it a few moments.
    Once the fields being updated, change the DNS section as following:
    Primary DNS: 8.8.8.8
    Secondary DNS: 8.8.4.4.
    Apply and save the changes, then try enableing Web Services again and check for any difference.
    Please let me know if that may help,

  • How to connect HP Officejet Pro 8610 to a Laptop that's not connect to the internet

    Just bought the HP Officejet Pro 8610 all-in-one for the local Historical Society. Neither the laptop nor the printer will be connected to the Internet. The printer will only be used for printing reports, scanning images, etc.
    I have just removed the instruction manual to familiarize myself with the connecting procedure but I notice there are several references that require internet access.
    Is there a work-around that allows me to install/connect the printer without requiring access to the internet?
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    How many computer will be using the printer ? If only one the USB (you may have to buy a cable) is the way to go. You can also use wireless direct to print but this is not reliable:

    I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).

  • HP Officejet Pro 8610 does not connect to laptop via wireless network

    I have a new HP Officejet Pro 8610. It is connected wirelessly to my home network. My laptop, running Windows 7, is connected to the same network, but cannot find the printer. I have tried turning everything off and resetting the router, but still have the same issue - my laptop cannot find the printer. 
    I am able to email a document from my laptop to the printer using the printer's email address. 
    What can I do to get my laptop to find the printer on the wireless network? 

    Hey!
    This is an issue with your wireless, you either have to get your router looked at you are looking at relocating your printer and your router so they are closer together. If you are able to connect all of your devices to the network fine when you are in the same room; Call HP Technical Phone Support.
    If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
    HP printers generally have a 1 year warranty from their purchase date, you can verify the warranty using the following link if you would like; warranty check.
    I hope this helps.

  • HP Officejet pro 8610 not connected

    I have a new modem and separete Duel Router.    Router is Lynksis EA3500 with 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz capabilities.   Just bought a new HP Officejet Pro 8610 which I now have learned will only run on a 2.4 GHz system.   When I connect the printer to the wireless system it shuts down the 5 GHz network.   It kicks off all other devices.   Those devices can join the 2.4 GHz, but can no longer even see the 5.0 GHz network.   Not acceptable.  
    Do I need a different printer or can this be fixed?   I don't understand why the printer won't run on the 2.4 but allow the laptops, desktop and TVs use the 5 GHz.   Ridiculous.   
    I spent 1.5 hours on the phone with Lynksis first and they verified that the router is working perfectly.   Then I spent 2 hours talking to HP in India and they just said sorry we will tell HP to make this printer capable for 5.0 in the future.    
    Not good - ready to return the printer.   Any other option???
    This question was solved.

    First, I'm glad to hear the problem is solved.  It also points out a significant problem with third had troubleshooting. 
    It also reminds me of a time when I was trying to help a customer over the phone (long before we could remotely login to client computers.)  I spent a hour or so with this customer trying to figure out the answer to her problem.  I eventually jumped in my car and drove over to the customer's office.  In the middle of the screen was a big message that answered the problem.  When I asked the customer why she didn't tell me about the message, she replied that she didn't believe that it was relavant.
    I am surprised that HP even had you change the bandwidth on the router.  The defaults nearly always work fine.  802.11 AC uses a wider bandwith than 802.11 G or N.  The thing is, the bandwith change is all automatic.

  • 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,

  • Officejet Pro 8610 - Can't connect to wireless network (and has similar issue with previous printer)

    When I returned from a trip, I was unable to connect to my trusty HP All-in-one 7510 that I had on my network for three years.  I tried troubleshooting it, reinstalling the software on numerous computers, and fixing the printer, but alas the printer said that it was connected to the network, and none of my computers wanted to find it anymore. 
         Then I bought my new Officejet Pro 8610 this week, set it up...and I am experiencing the same issue.  I tried using the link and support took from this post - http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Install-Setup/Officejet-Pro-8610-Can-t-connect-to-wi... but the printer was unable to be found on the network.  
      I would appreciate any help on this issue.  Thanks!

  • HP Officejet Pro 8610 - Unable to print windows 8.1

    Hi ,
    I've recently purchased HP Officejet Pro 8610 and unable to print from windows.
    I am running 64bit Windows 8.1
    I can print from Web via email
    I can print using the HP AiO Remote app in windows. This doesnt have full functionality and is also inconvenient if I am working on documents and I want to print.
    I have tried the following:
    - Uninstalling and reinstalling from CD provided with printer
    - Using the HP printer troubleshooter assistant, no success
    - Downloading the software direct from HP website
    - Updating the firmware using OJP8610_R1416A.exe
    -Changing the port to the network port (in this case it is 192.168.0.200, it responds to a ping, also set the printer to have a static ip)
    This is the error message that i get when i try to print a test page when i choose printer properties in the control panel
    "test page failed to print. would you like to view the printer troubleshooter for assistance"
    I have trawlled through other member's issues and i cant seem to find a fix for myself
    Please help

  • HP officeJet Pro 8610 can't connect to wireless router

    Just bought a HP officejet Pro 8610, switched on the wireless mode. It won't connect to my Netgear router D6200. It tries to look for the networks in the house and the software hangs. I took it back to the shop and exchanged it with a new printer. I tested it in the shop and it picked up the networks but at home it continues to do the same thing, the software just freezes.

    Hi,
    Try following these steps and check if that may help:

    I would also suggest disabling any anti virus or firewall software on your PC which might block the installation.
    Be sure to use the latest drivers, those can be downloaded below:

  • HP Officejet Pro 8610 Will Not Print

    I have a new Officejet Pro 8610 which has been working fine but today it would not print. Everyting else still worked, the printer is detected by USB and all of the cleaning/ alignment procedures work from my PC as normal. Scaning a document worked OK as well. I tried to run a test print from the printer list on windows, this didn't work either. So I uninstalled the supplied software and reinstalled it again, still would not print. At this point I installed the software on my old laptop and connected if by USB again and it worked fine, printed straight away. The only difference in the install was when selecting which additional programmes to install, one said it was already installed even though I had unistalled the software before. That programme was the Product Improvement Study which I can't get rid of. Everytime it is still there. Is this causing my problems and how do I get it off my PC as I am unable to find it anywhere to remove it. Any help would be appreciated.

    no one answered this questio for me or even gave me advice....
    I got it to print from explorer but not chrome .So for some reason it decided to stop printing from chrome all on its on.Not sure how long it ill print from ie but we'll see .thanks for no advice 

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8610 Keeps Going Offline

    I have been using my HP OfficeJet Pro 8610 wireless all-in-one printer for about 2 weeks successfully, but all of the sudden the printer shows as 'Offline' all the time and I cannot fix it. I have set the IP address to static and tried rebooting the printer & router, but nothing works. I can see this is an issue lots of users have, and it is very frustrating. I would appreciate help with the issue or in the worst case be shipped a cable to connect the printer to my laptop so I can work around the terrible wireless issues.

    Hello @eliz90 , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you are experiencing connectivity issues.  I would like to help!
    I would recommend powering down your computer.  Once the computer is down, select Setup on the front panel of the printer, and select Network.  In  the network menu, select Restore Network Defaults. 
    Once the defaults have been restored, disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, and remove the power from your router for 60 seconds. 
    After 60 seconds, plug the router back in.  Once the router has begun broadcasting, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar. 
    After the printer is on, run the wireless setup.
    I'd also suggest this document:

  • No print from Windows 7 Desktop and Officejet Pro 8610

    I purchased and installed a new Officejet Pro 8610 about a month ago.  My desktop computer is an HP Windows 7 unit.  The printer is setup wireless. Up until a few days ago, everything has run fine, but now I cannot print anything from my desktop computer.  Printing from my MacBook laptop works fine.  Printing from my iphone is fine.  Scanning to the desktop computer is fine.  Webprinting is fine.  The printer icon has a nice green checkmark in the devices folder. I have run the HP Print and Scan Doctor, which claims to fix a port issue, but does not resolve the problem. I have use windows to troubleshoot the connection, which claims to make the printer available to my homegroup, but it does not resolve the problem. I tried changing the security settings for the spooler.  Did not resolve the problem. I cannot manually stop and star the spooler via dos prompt.  Says system 5 error, access denied. This is maddening.  I got rid of my old printer (which reliably printed from the desktop) so that I could have wireless printing capability, and now I have wireless capability but cannot print from my desktop.  Aaaaggghhhhhh!!!!

    Hey , Thanks for getting back to me regarding this issue. At this time I am going to have you load an alternate Officejet driver on your product. Because the network connection is fine, and scanning is still fine I do not believe that the issue that you're experiencing is connectivity or software related. This alternate driver I am going to have you load will operate the exact same way as the Officejet Pro 8610 e-All-in-One Printer driver. Therefore, you will not lose any functionality by performing this fix. Please try the steps below.  Step 1: Clear Temp Files: Click on your Start menu
    In the 'search programs and files' box located right above Start after you click on it, type %temp% and hit enter on your keyboard
    When the Temp folder opens, select Ctrl + A at the same time on your keyboard. Everything in this folder will now highlight.
    Select the 'delete' button on your keyboard. The Temp folder contains temporary internet files. No actual files or folders on your computer will be affected by deleting the Temp files. Should a Temp file still be used than you will automatically get the pop up to 'skip' that item.
    Close the Temp folder once it is emptied
    Right click the Recycling Bin on your desktop and select Empty Recycling BinPlease proceed to the next step.
       Step 2: Load Alternate Driver: Please click here to download the Officejet driver Once the download is complete you may get a prompt to Run the download. If you see the Run prompt, please allow it to Run.An extraction should now occur. Once the extraction is complete an installation window may pop open. Please close any install windows. You do not want to run an installation. Next, click on your Start menu. In the 'search programs and files' box type %temp% and hit enter on your keyboardWhen the Temp folder opens locate the 7z folder. Click on this folder to open it. It should include files that say OJ860At the top of this folder you will see a file path bar. It may show something like 'Computer- Local Disk C - Users - AppData - Local - Temp - 7z . . . ' Left click on the right hand side of this file path bar at the top. The file path should now highlight.Right click on the highlighted file path and select CopyClose the Temp folderClick on your Start menuSelect Devices and PrintersRight click on you HP Officejet 8610 Left click on Printer PropertiesLeft click on the Advanced tabLeft click on New DriverWhen the New Driver window opens please hit 'Next' until you see a list of Manufacturers and Printers Click on the 'Have Disk' button on the bottom rightWhen the 'Install from Disk' window opens, simply right click on the file path bar and 'Paste' in the file path we previously copied.Click OKWhen prompted choose the HP Officejet 8600 Printer and click 'Next' until the Add Driver window closesUnder Printer Properties select Apply, but don't hit OKSelect the General tabRename your printer back to HP Officejet Pro 8610 Hit OK Now that the alternate Officejet driver has been loaded, please test printing to confirm if the printing issue has been resolved.  Please let me know if the steps I've provided resolve your printing issue. Good luck!
