Why is my computer telling me to turn ON my HP officejet 8500 all in one? It's ON!

My HP officejet 8500 all in one printer is powered on. The fax and copier are working but when I try to print my computer (windows 7 pro 32bit) tells me to power on my printer. I had trouble with my DSL internet server yesterday and installed a new modem w/ router from at&t and my printer runs through a netgear prosafe port switch. I had to reboot everything to get the internet up on my PC. the printer worked fine before the internet and hardware trouble. I have tried wiring it directly to the PC with the USB cable and it gives the same error. I have rebooedt, unplugged computer and printer over and over.

Turn the printer off.  Hold # and 6 keys while and a bit after turning it back on.  This will reset the printer.

  • Computer is unable to communicat​e with printer Officejet J4680c All in One using wireless setting.

    I received a message while I reinstalling software and driver to change from usb conection to wireless conection:  Your laptop is unable to communicate with your printer (Officejet J4680c All in One.  This may be caused by firewall software.  If you are using firewall software, verify that UDP port is unblocked for both inbound and outbound trafic.  But I don't know how to verify that option in my computer.  While I reinstalled software I turn off firewall software in my computer.  Can some one help me to resolve this issue? Thanks.

    Hi, t.o.
    To check for video problems, run the Apple Hardware Test that shipped with your Mac. It will test your display/graphics card as well as other hardware bits. See my "Apple Hardware Test" FAQ for comprehensive advice on using the Apple Hardware Test in troubleshooting, including running the test in Loop Mode.
    Good luck!

  • I am trying to gather all of my music into one place, but it is scattered throughout my computer and external hard drive, how can I put it all in one folder and then create one library off of it?

    My first problem is that I need to get all of my music files in one folder, they are scattered throughout my computer and external hard drive and I am trying to get them all together. Afterwards I want to send this music to my microsd hard in my Samsung Galaxy s4, is there a way to proceed through this? Or at least one part of it?

    Consolidate your iTunes Library
    As for the other part of the question, iTunes syncs with Apple devices.
    Simply copy the media desired from the computer to the microSD card.  This has nothing to do with iTunes.

  • HP Officejet 7310xi All-in-one driver always fail to complete the download on brand new computer

    I just go my computer a few weeks ago.  It has windows 7.  I have added very little to it yet.  I have tried on numerous occasions to download the drivers for our printer.  I did attempt to use the cd that came with it, but that was for earlier operating systems.  What can I do to get this to download?  I really need my printer.

  • All in one computer keeps overheating. Now won't turn on

    My HP all in one Touchsmart 310 computer has been overheating for the past month. I would shut it down as soon as I hear it (the fan I think) run really loud. Yesterday (July 14th) it was getting loud so I shut it down and I waited for it to cool down. When it was cooled down I went to turn it on and nothing happened. The button didn't light up. I checked the back where the power cord is plugged in and the green light was on showing it was getting power I guess. I read online somewhere to unplug the power cord and hold in the power button for 10 seconds then plug it back in. I did that and the power light flashed a couple of times but the computer didn't start up. Is my computer toast now. I've only had this computer for 3 years and it's been sent to HP twice I think in that time. I had an extended warranty on it but now the warranty has expired. Should I spend the money to have it fixed or just buy a new computer. I was thinking awhile back to buy a new computer now that windows 10 is coming out. I was getting the free windows 10 download for the computer that doesn't work. I noticed on the all in one computer there are no screws on it whatsoever. So I wouldn't be able to open it up to see if it needed cleaning inside. I tried awhile back to clean it through the vents with a straw but no dust was coming out of it. Anyway any help would be greatly appreciated as soon as possible. I can't live without my computer. I'm using an iPad mini to type this and it's not the same as having my all in one computer.

    Thanks King_Penguin it worked!   I'm curious though, if these are signs of a bigger issue that I should take into the Apple store for further investigation.   Or is this just a quirk of the iPad?  I've been having the crashing issues consistently for about a month.  Any thoughts?  Thanks!

    Please read this post then provide some details.  What operating system? Are there any error messages on the printer or computer screen when printing fails?
