Update firmware on an officejet

i have a hp officejet pro 8500 premier all-in-one printer - a909n, can it be updated to be an airprint enabled printer? I want to print from my ipad and iphone?

No, sorry, for this (and most) models it takes more than firmware...it takes hardware.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • Can not update firmware on Officejet Pro 8610

    Can't update firmware on Officejet Pro 8610, Hp update site shows available firmware update needed, disabled firewall, shut off wireless, run program, window for update appears, but checkbox greyed out. I've talked to HP Tech, He was positive newer firmware was available, I've tried starting in safe mode w/networking, disabled, MS Security essentials turned off,etc. Have Dell Dimension, excellent running, Windows 7 Home Premium, Xfinity cable network modem (very fast), I'm getting frustrated.
    Does anybody have a suggestion? Thanks, Jim

    Hi @jwhite8150 , and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see you're having issues updating your firmware.  I would like to help!
    Before we start I have a request. 
    Press Setup on the front panel of the printer, and select Reports.  In the reports menu select Print Status report.  On that report, please let me know what firmware version is listed.

  • Firmware upgrade for Officejet 4500 G510n-z

    Please. i need the firmware upgrade for Officejet 4500 G510n-z or at the original firmware. my machine is acting uncommon. The paper feeder process start and page stop in the middle.
    thanks for all your help.
    Regards;

    Yes, there should have been either a firmware update/patch, or a full recall on this device. 
    The software setup and configuration is bad enough for one humble computer, but when used as
    intended with multiple devices it's an absolute headache. 
    I am constantly having to unplug the printer because the machine has decided it needs to rest for a bit. Okay,
    everybody deserves a break now and then. But it goes into coma mode and I could be jesus himself and the power
    or any other button) still would not wake it. 
    I would get into the rest but I'm not getting a helpful vibe from the forum; it's more defensive of a product which, apparently just under 5000 people have come by to check on. My friend at Microsoft talked to an HP engineer, who
    laughed and gave us the fix. 
    Uploading to FedEx-Kinko's is the better option. 

  • Can't Downgrade firmware on HP Officejet 8600 Plus!!!

    Hi
    In my office I have to scan and copy many many Legal size documents per day, I recently have aquired this awesome printer Hp Officejet 8600 Plus
    The first day I was able to scan a bunch of 2 sided legal paper, very awesome, but then I upgraded the printer, as always confident with the upgrades, but as a result of that I was unable to scan legal size paper again
    I was reading a lot of similar issues, and i Cant believe that this is an official desicion, the printer can perfectly scan legal size papper, so the solution is to downgrade the FW to an older version, but I Cant, I tryed with Jetadmin, with OJP8600_N911gn_1232A.exe, and copying the upgrade file *.ful directly to the printer
    And always the same thing:
    -in the screen of the printer appears the message (Printing) for a few seconds and then backs to the home screen again
    In the computter with Jetadmin it stay on 0% for hours
    -With OJP8600_N911gn_1232A.exe and the modded EnterpriseDU.ini Appears an error after 20 minutes, and ask me for reset the printer
    -Copying the *.ful file on the Printer, just put the Printing screen on the printer 2 or 3 seconds and then backs to the home screen.
    I tryed by USb cable, ethernet and even Wireless
    Is a security lock in the new firmwares?
    How Can I Downgrade the printer?, is urgent, i need to scan a lot of Legal documents
    And please activate the option by our own risk option, for legal scan in the next update, I'm tired and dissapointed...
    thanks

  • Firmware for HP OfficeJet 4620 corrupted on support Website?

    Firmware for HP OfficeJet 4620 seems to be corrupt on the HP Support website... Unable to run - getting error message:
    "OJ4620_R1404A.exe is not a valid Win32 Application"
    Where else can I get this file?

    Hi GTC_IT_TECH,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that your having trouble installing the firmware update. 
    What version of Windows are you using? Which Windows operating system am I running?
    In the meantime, I suggest trying this method to install the firmware. Getting the Latest Firmware and Product Updates.

    I have recently upgraded my iMac Intel G5 iSight (iMac5,1) to OS 10.6.8 and now the internal mic does not work with skype or facebook. I can here static when playing back clips. Do I need to update firmware or reload old system parts. I have zapped PRAM. The blue indicator in system audio panel will appear for a second as I slide the bar for internal mic but then it disappears. Is there a fix?

    but when install the last update MacBookProEFIUpdate2.9 i got error like this
    "This software is not supported on your system."
    please help me thanks

    OK, so the firmware is the same as mine, and yet Apple Support offered this EFI and SMC update packages, which should give a message that our computers are updated. 
      However, the update packages fail to run. 
      Did Apple neglect to give the correct update for the mid-2012 issue of MacBook Pro 13-inch?  I have the i7 Intel processor, instead of the i5, and I was sold this unit as having two processors, but the System info only lists a single processor. 
    Is one of the problems with Intel-based MacBook Pro units that the integration wasn't without bugs that cause processor hang when running the OS Lion, even with updates to 10.7.5?
      Shouldn't the EFI and SMC updaters run on these machines as stated in the Apple Support article? 
      What will Apple do for these customers?

  • How to install OS 9.2.1 on G3 with no OS; says needs updated firmware, how?

    I am trying to install OS 9.2.1 in an old G3 which at present has no OS in it.
    The screen says it needs updated firmware to do so. When I try to follow instructions, it tells me the CD is locked, which is obvious since it is an installation CD. Other instructions seem to assume there is already an older OS in the machine to update. Anyone with an idea of how to break this log jam?
    [email protected]

    Hi wmarina !
    Welcome to the Discussions, and Happy Thanksgiving!
    The only G3 that will give you a Firmware Update warning when trying to install OS 9, is a Blue & White G3 tower.......
    If that's what you have, then getting OS 9 onto it is a bit of a Catch-22, Can o' Worms, P.I.T.A., or whatever other favorite sayings you may have for a difficult job........
    "Other instructions seem to assume there is already an older OS in the machine to update."
    Very astute observation, and 100% correct.
    The OS that is assumed to be on the B&W's drive is MINIMUM 8.5.1, and therein lies the Catch-22.....
    A BOOTABLE 8.5.1 Install CD is NOT available as a RETAIL CD........
    The Retail CD is 8.5 install, with the 8.5.1 UPDATER, which is also on the CD.......
    The 2nd part of this problem is that the Firmware Updater (which is on the OS9.1 CD) MUST be run from the booted Hard Drive with 8.5.1 on it.........
    Your options are:
    1. Find a set of the ORIGINAL SOFTWARE CDs that shipped with a Blue & White G3, and install the original OS from there.........
    2. Do what I had to do. Take out the Hard Drive and move it to an older Mac (i.e. Beige), and install OS 8.5 on it, and update it to 8.5.1, take the Hard Drive out and re-install it into the B&W again, boot to it, and do the Firmware update at that time.........
    Note that NO Mac can boot to an EARLIER version OS than it shipped with when new, which is why you will have to use a beige to install 8.5.1 to that hard drive........
    As a secondary note, to avoid more problems, get a new Pram battery (1/2 AA 3.6V).
    Available at any Radio Shack.
    Good Luck !

  • External hard drive connected to my airport extreme will no longer open, when navigating to it in Finder, the Finder window quits and reopens, cannot access hard drive, it is visible in airport utility, since the problem began I have updated firmware

    External hard drive connected to my airport extreme will no longer open, when navigating to it in Finder, the Finder window quits and reopens, cannot access hard drive, it is visible in airport utility, since the problem began I have updated firmware on Extreme as well as both of my Airport Expresses. Hard drive is USB connected to Extreme.

    Reboot the USB drive.. assuming it is powered.. or unplug and replug a self-powered drive.. (you should not use self-powered drives on AE before the latest model.. always use a powered hub).
    Does the drive now appear in finder..
    If not reboot both drive and the AE.. it should now appear.
    If it doesn't work with direct connection try a powered hub.. that can help.

  • Kernel panics after updating firmware

    Kernel panics began at startup after updating firmware about 2 weeks ago. Went through the KP repair routines prescribed by thexlab.com. Found no problems with the hard drive, permissions, etc. Did erase and install (with Leopard OS dvd bought from best buy) after archiving files to external HD and was able to startup normally. Updated OS to 10.5.7, along with several other items (iTunes was one of them). Put previously copied files (mostly iTunes). The computer ran successfully for a few days and then started getting KP's at startup again. Did another erase and install. Had success. Loaded iLife and Office 08 to have something to try to test the machine with. Shut down the computer and restarted successfully. I had forgotten I had not tested the RAM so downloaded Memtest. Tried to run it but the computer froze half way through the test. Did a hard shutdown, then tried to restart normally and got the KP again at startup. Here is the panic log:

  • Stuck with gray screen during update (firmware)

    Today I completed the routine software update (firmware) on my macbook pro. During the update all I can see is a gray screen with no progress bar. It appears "stuck". Please advise!

    See https://discussions.apple.com/message/24334963#24334963
    Hold power button down 5-10 seconds. It will restart and all should be fine.

  • Updated firmware of Creative Zen Nano P

    Questions?. Why do i need to download new updated firmware every now and then?2. WHat is the disadvantages if i don't download new updated firmware every now and then?3. What is the difference of the updated firmwares found in creative download section and the DAPJukebox website?4. Which is has the best quality firmwares, the creative download section or the DAPJukebox website?thanks?

    All software regardless how good the quality control will have bugs.
    Firmware is just software that is stored in the hardware on your device. New firmware is often released by a company to fix bugs or possibly add functionality that could enhance the use of a device.
    But it is also possible that a new firmware update might add a new bug or two. (a rare occurance)?Sometimes (unfortunatly) new firmware upgrades can end up removing a feature.
    For example it appears creative was under some legal pressure to remove the radio recording feature from there devices. On the ZVM, it was removed in one firmware upgrade, then in a later one it was replaced. On the Zen Nano Plus it was removed in the latest firmware upgrade (which is actually a bit old in calendar terms right now), but they have not released a later version that adds the recording back in. So in the case o fthe Zen Nano Plus, an firmware upgrade could be considered a bad thing.
    If you require and use the radio recording functionality, then upgrading to the latest version (to fix some minor bugs) could end up crippling some of the functionality of the device. Normally when new firmware is released, there are notes detailing changes in functionality, bugs fixed, and even bugs that still exist. By looking at the information you can determine if you want/need to upgrade to the latest firmware.
    Since there is some inherent risk in upgrading a firmware, most people don't upgrade firmware unless they need the new functionality or are experiencing a bug of some kind on the device that the new firmware might possibly remedy.

  • I have Lion on my 13" pro and have kept it up to date. Today I had a message about the need to update firmware. I pressed restart and there was language about the screen ging gray. I think it said for a few minutes.  It has been 3 hrs. is this a problem?.

    I got an alert to update firmware. When I click for restart a message the screen would gray and and it might ake a few minutes.  That was about three hours ago and it is still gray and sitting there. Is this to be expected? What could/should I do?  I am typing this on an ipad because the Macboob Pro is currently useless.

    With Firmware updates, Apple will usually offer instructions to complete the update, since they require an additional step to complete. It sounds like you haven't finished the Firmware update completely.
    Since it's your computer and investment, I wouldn't risk it and would visit your local Apple Store and let them solve the problem. In the meantime, read this link from Apple:

  • Must update firmware before installing OSX Tiger on OS9

    I'm trying to bring an iMac G3 with OS9 to life. It's brand new, never been used before, and doesn't yet have internet. I will get internet (Airport Card) soon, but first have a software update problem.
    After starting the iMac, I have inserted the install DVD for Tiger. The computer says it must restart to install, and when it restarts, the computer says it must update firmware before installing. I have to choose a system with which it will start up and my choices are:
    OS9: Hard Drive
    OSX: Install DVD
    My 3rd option searches for a location, and ends up restarting in OS9.
    Every option either results in the inevitable error message that the firmware needs updating or using the OS9 environment.
    I read Apple support saying that firmware needs to be updated to fix this problem. Support suggests updating firmware from the OSX install DVD, but I haven't found such updates on the DVD, and need to overcome the firmware problem.
    Please help, I am anxious to use my computer!
    Thank you!

    Hi, Kristine -
    Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
    You can download the firmware update you need from either of these Apple KBase articles -
    Article #58174 - iMac: When to Install Available Updaters
    Article #86117 - Firmware Updates
    In order to install the firmware update, the machine must be booted to OS 9 on its internal hard drive. It's a good idea to have no external devices connected when you do it, other than the keyboard and mouse. If you can, print out the ReadMe that accompanies the update.
