W Vista to W7 and HP 8500 A909g can't connect

Upgraded my laptop to W7. Intermittent spooling issues so I uinstalled the printer. The disk I had was only good for Vista.
Downloaded HP drivers for W7. Re-booted several times. Download doesnt recognize IP address found in HP Network Config page I printed out.
Any tips?

You may want to try this patch: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-77751-1&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&...
If that does not work, try a complete uninstall of the software, reboot, update Windows, then re-install from hp.com.

  • Officejet Pro 8500 A909G Can't Scan to Network Folder - Install won't detect Printer

    I have installed an 8500 on a wireless network.  There are 2 PC's;  1 is XP Home, the other is XP Pro, both are Service Pack 3.  The Router is a Linksys WRT54G2, Wireless adapters in both PC's are Linksys Wireless G - PCI cards.  Both PC's are running McAfee Total Protection software and they are up to date.  Windows Firewall is off.  I'm using a 9 char SSID (all alpha), it isn't hidden and I'm not using MAC filtering.  Security is WPA2 using a pass-phrase.  I have added SLP service on Port 427 in McAfee on both PC's for UDP and TCP.  (I've also opened up 135-139 and 445 for File sharing.)  All devices configure using DHCP.  The printer was turned on first and gets 192.168.1.100, XP Home gets ...101 and XP Pro gets ...102.  Signal strength for both PC's is Excellent and the LAN runs at 54.0 mps.  (I can't think of anything more to describe how everything is setup.  If anyone needs something else, just ask for specifics.)  Now the PROBLEM:
    During installation: 1) XP Home discovers the printer just fine, all is happy and all works as advertised. 2) XP Pro doesn't see the printer when searching for printer (not recieving SLP Packets?), I have to go to advanced and search by IP Address.  There is some point after this that I receive an error saying I need to check port 427 etc.  I check continue installing wireless and ignore errors.  When install is done XP Pro CAN print.  I CAN run HP Solutions Center and scan.  I CAN'T go to the printer and press the scan button and "Scan to a Network Folder", I CAN'T setup this function for the XP Pro machine using ESS.  I CAN access EWS from either PC (that uses port 80).  I have tried turning off the McAfee firewall to no avail (of course McAfee doesn't exactly turn off completely - I have read in some other forums).  I'm not sure what to do next and I'm spending WAY too much time on this install (this is a customer of mine).  I was about to tell them I can't turn on this one option - then I tried to turn on file-sharing and found it doesn't work either!  I could point the finger at McAfee because it sounds like their kind of problem, however, both versions are identical, and both have been setup the same.  The only real difference is XP - Home vs Pro.  If anyopne has seen this kind of problem on an XP Pro box please let me know.  I'm now just scratching my head with no other options.

    I have a customer with the EXACT same problem.  I HONESTLY thing that HP has a driver/firmware problem here.
    Three different computers, A desktop, a laptop and a Netbook (sounds like a joke...)  NONE will allow Scan to Print.  I have installed/uninstalled around 9 times now - HP sent the customer a NEW printer in December - still no workee.  Spent 5 hours on phone with tech support - NO WORKEEE...
    Here is the maddening part - the SCAN TO E-MAIL works PERFECTLY!!!!!!!!   ALL other functions work Perfectly - but Scan to File just fails stating that it can't find the computer.
    I can ping the Printer, I have disabled ALL anti-virus, firewall software, scanned with Malwarebytes, TrendMicro Housecall, Eset NOD32, and Kapersky scanners with negative (good) results for bugs...
    I'm just happy that SOMEONE else is having the problem... (so that I know that I'M not COMPLETELY crazy....)  (The scene in OFFICE SPACE keeps playing through my head, the one where they take the fax machine and play baseball with it...)
    Help!!!!

  • Sony Ericsson W810i and iSync 2.4: "can not connect to this device"

    I am using Mac OS 10.4.11 and iSync 2.4, which I believe are the most up to date versions. My Sony Ericsson W810i is shown as being compatible with iSync as shown on the iSync support page, but while I try to add the phone to it I get the message:
    "W810i
    iSync can not connect to this device".
    Does anybody have any ideas how to sort this problem? I've tried restarting both my computer and phone before trying again.

    I finally figured out how to fix this problem. The mobile phone had to be initially added by the computer under Bluetooth to pair them before adding the device to iSync. Adding the computer as a device to the phone to pair them, as I had been doing, didn't allow it to work with iSync.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g can't scan to network folder

    Since upgrading to 10.7 Lion, I have not been able to scan to a network folder on my mac.
    Have downloaded the latest driver from HP, and reinstalled the driver etc, but to no avail?
    Any thoughts?

    Latest news:
    there's a firmware update for HP OfficeJet Pro 6500 Wireless (A909g) which is compatible with the new SMBX protocol! This re-enables scan to folder capabilities in OSX 10.8 & later!
    You CANNOT find this update under Mac OSX menu on the HP support page but only under Windows, and need to update the firmware via a Windows system (or a VMware machine).
    After that, it works again!

  • HP officejet pro 8500 A909g Can not send emails from scan to e mail & Forward My Fax on Emails

    I have Windows 7 home Premium os,
    My earlier router malfunctioned so have installed new Dlink router DSL-2750U and after that i am not able to use scan to email & Fax to email options.
    Email id to forward mail is a gmail id.
    Please advice

    Backing up a moment, how do you access your email;
    Software based program (ex. MS outlook, aol desktop)
    Web browser (ex. Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Firefox)
    Another method
    Scanning to email requires a software based email to be open.
    However, a work around may be present if you were able to provide the information stated above.

  • HP Officejet pro 8500 A909g Can I clean printheads or is it necessary to put in new ones?

    Have been having issues with poor color quality. Also Black ink prints sometimes not always. e.g. On duplex printing balck ink fades to nothing after a couple of pages. I know the issue is in the printheads as even the print cartridge holder is full of dried ink spots. Inside of printer is full of dust. Would like to clean ink cartridge holder and vacuum or eliminate all dust inside printer as well as cleaning or replacing all printheads. Where can I buy new printheads at best prices?

    Hi Computronics,
    Yes you can clean the print heads, i have included the document ''The Following Printhead Appears to be Missing or Damaged' or 'The Following Printhead has a Problem...'. I know that you are not having this particular error, but it does show how to clean the printheads.
    Please let me know if this helps.

  • Error connecting, tap to retry, it sees my WiFi and computer name but can't connect

    Hi all, I am trying to get Edge Inspect to work on my Windows 7 PC (it did work for me a few times when I had it installed as Shadow when it initally came out)
    I have read through various forum posts. I am also running Mcafee Virusscan/Firewall. 
    In Google Chrome I have the extension installed at the little "In" symbol top right, when I click it it says Adobe Edge Inspect "On", please start the Adobe Edge Inspect Application.
    I open up the lastest version of Edge Inspect (v1.0.393) on either my iPhone or iPad, it shows the name of my WiFi router and shows the name of the computer that is running Google Chrome, it looks like it is searching for a connection (shows spinner) and then it says "Error connecting, tap to retry".
    I have opened up port 7682 in my Mcafee Firewall
    I have shutdown all open programs
    I have tried manually entering in the computer IP address via manual connect
    I have updated chrome extension and ios apps to latest version
    I have tried reinstalling chrome extension
    I have tried at Windows Command prompt "netstat -ano" it doesnt show port 7682 being used, until I open up Google Chrome, then it shows MYCOMPUTER:7682 SYN_SENT, which I checked the PID against and yes it is Google Chrome using 7682
    Any help would be great

    Hi again Mark, still no luck here.
    I also have a Mac in my network so I thought I'd try installing to that to see what would happen, I just installed Adobe Edge Inspect extension onto Google Chrome on that machine and restarted the iOS apps on both iPad and iPhone and they actually didnt see the Mac machine at all, still just shows the PC computer.
    Also did I mention on my iPad I can still see the last time the connection actually worked (when it was called Adobe shadow, on my iPad underneath MYCOMPUTERNAME Error Connecting, tap to retry it has MYCOMPUTERNAME Last Used 24/07/12 8:59PM). Wouldnt have anything to do with a conflict with the old Adobe Shadow or anything would it, I'm pretty sure Adobe Shadow got uninstalled by default anyway, just a thought.
    So I'm not sure if it can be a problem with the Router because nothing has changed with the router since the last time it successfully worked when it was Shadow? I did add the Mac machine to the network since this time, but that machine hasnt been on when I have been doing any of this testing anyway.
    Also in the Edge Inspect in the Chrome browser I do not see any deviced listed, but back on the iOS App I do see the Wifi network and Computer name as discussed, so does this mean its an inbound connection issue or?
    Also sent you router settings via private message etc.

  • Have FIOS Quantum router up and running - but now can't connect to Tivo or my Aria scale -help!

    Getting my router set up was quick and easy, but now I have a problem that has me stumped. I am not a router expert, so need help.
    Neither my Tivos nor my Aria scale can connect to my router.
    Tivo sent me this page: http://support.tivo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/402
    I am not sure that I am well-versed enough in router speak to figure it out on the admin dashboard.
    Anybody who has run into this and has advice for me?
    I have gone through the Tivo settings and Aria set-up, but both produce errors. For Tivo, it can't find the DHCP server. Aria just gives me a Wifi error message.
    HELP!

    Interestingly enough, as soon as I plugged in our old trusted ActionTec, my Tivo connected without a problem, and I got my Motorola NIM100 to stop blinking. Go figure. On the phone now with Verizon (on hold) to figure this out. If not, it's going back.

  • Are the Adobe Servers down? My CC update stalls at 6% and says my computer can't connect to the servers - Adobe help was an absolute joke trying to help.

    Tried using Adobe's "support team" to help figure this out. What an absolute waste of time. The clown was literally reading off a script and wouldn't answer me when I asked if the servers were down. Creative cloud installer won't update. Stalls at 6% and gives me an error. Error code 207. This is ridiculous. I can't download any programs. It won't update CC... good move with this cloud garbage Adobe. This is beyond frustrating.
    Thanks for the awesome day of getting absolutely nothing done Adobe! Can't wait to hear it from my boss about no productivity today.

    Hi Graham,
