HP Officejet 6500 Wireless All-in-One InkJet Printer Logo
Posted on Sep 12, 2017

I set up an HP OfficeJet 6500 on a client's Dell laptop (USB, not wireless). Worked fine-now all of a sudden it won't print web pages (from IE8), print preview shows/prints info header/footer, but won't print/show body of website. (I can print the same web page, no problem to my HP color laserjet 2550, from IE8, on my Dell laptop) Test page print works fine. Any ideas?

1) Make sure your hp 1200 is selected as your DEFAULT printer.

2) Check to make sure that it will/will not print standard wordprocessing doecuments from MS Word, MS Wors, etc. If iot does go to next step.

3) Turn the printer off, unplug it from the computer, them unplug the power from the printer. . wait 3 minutes, then power up again. Try printing again. If not successful, go to next step.

3) Unplug the printer's USB cable from the computer. Uninstall, then reinstall the printer's driver software from the original CD that came with the printer. Follow the prompts during the installation and plug the printer's USB cable into the computer whan prompted. Test print again.

I have HP Officejet 6500 connected via USB to office desktop. I also need print from vista laptops on the same wireless network as the desktop. How do you do it ?

Hi, I just completed this same query this week.

to set up my remote network i followed promts from windows and then had to run my windows xp startup disc on my vista laptop.

After that was complete i had to install the hp printer setup cd onto my vista laptop and connect the hp printer to my router using the ethernet cable. I followed the prompts on the vista as the cd continued to install. then at the end of it all it showed i had correctly installed the printer via wireless and asked me to do a practice print which i did and all seems fine.

I can now print from my vista laptop and my windows xp desktop. I hope this helps

My HP Officejet 6500 Wireless printer won't print in black when trying to print from Microsoft Office Word and Microsoft Office Excel or PDF. The ink cartridge is new. I have turned the printer off and...

I also have the OfficeJet 6500 and had the same problem. The black text was printing using a mix of colored inks instead of the black ink, resulting in a grey, fuzzy text. I finally found a solution. In each application under Page Setup, there is an option called "Format for". Mine had been set to "Any Printer". I changed that to "Officejet 6500 E709n [830E4A]" and now it prints the black just fine. I have a Mac running 10.4.11. Hope this helps.

How do I get the HP 6500 to print wirelessly?

For installing a wireless printer on Windows XP, wireless router is an essential device. Follow the recommended steps mentioned on the installation CD of the router, and set-up a wireless network. Since several computers or laptops will access the printer, it is recommended to connect the wireless printer to the main computer through the USB port. To begin the installation process on Windows XP, access the network setting in the Control Panel, and activate the file and printer sharing option in the LAN setting. This will allow the operating system to recognize the availability of a wireless printer. Now, click the Start button, go to Devices and Printers, select Add a Printer option. Click the second option- Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer. The computer will search for available printer and reflect it on the screen. Click Finish; and the printer is ready to begin the printing process. get more detail for Wireless Printer Setup. Hope this helps you.
Thanks
