I have a pro 8600. Not sure if we are talking about the same printer or system, however I removed the part of the printer that holds the print heads and put in in warm running water (sink) and then soaked it till it ran clean and put it back on the computer...

If your printer has downloaded these firmware updates can you reset it back to the original firmware?

Hi, I want to print up a booklet and have it bound @ Staples with their metal wire binder. I will be using the booklet for reference, but it won't be heavy usage. I will also have their tab pages added because it is going to have 40 or so sections. I figure maybe 65 wt paper, but what I...

Whenever I hear rattling noises, I pick up the device and slowly tilt it one way or the other and then listen for the location of the sound. Usually it is a screw that fell out, or a piece of plastic that broke or maybe part of the original packing that came with the printer that we missed. It's...

Hi, I get about 6 or 8 hp dialogue boxes on startup (with the printer turned on) trying to get me to buy cartridges from HP and then there are about 3 or 4 dialogue boxes that you have to tread to dismiss. Where is the program that is creating this stuff and how do I dispense with it?

Thanks websnail, So the new cartridges give the problem, or the new printer software? If software, how do I prevent it downloading?

Ah I found out the answer to my question. I just had to go to the printer tools section and reset to factory defaults.

Thanks again thanhhuy123, I found the utility app and deselected Eprint and Web Security. I tried to deselect wifi and wireless access point, but it asked for a password. I have no idea what it is and could see no obvious way to find or change it. Any ideas?

Thanks thanhhuy123 That makes sense as I recall that I used to have the ethernet connected, but I was concerned that the printer would download some software which would render it inoperable. I've had that happen with other Apple stuff (iPhoneIOS updates for instance) (I refill my cartridges...

I have an iMac and my wife has a MacBook Pro and right now the iMac is connected via USB to the printer. My wife is not connected directly to the printer, but she is connected to the same modem/router as I am. I was thinking about running a usb cable but would rather not unless that is the...

My wife and I use Apples and a HP 8600 office jet Pro. We are happy with this setup, but my wife has to come to my office, turn on my computer to access the printer. My computer is hooked via USB. We are both wired to a modem so can I somehow make it so she can just print without turning on my...

Wow! You guys know your stuff. Thanks. Lots of food for thought.

Will this work with my officejet pro 8600 ? Is it cheaper just to get Staples to do it @ probably a buck a copy? (CanD)

What do you use to clean the printhead?

Hi, I have CISinks CISS set in my printer. I haven't had a lot of luck in getting good printing. Missing lines, faded, no colour. Then I watched vids online and discovered purging the tubes. So I purged the lines and nothing really improved. Now I get a missing or damaged warning with the...
