HP Officejet Pro 8600
Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks

I keep getting "the printer is not connected" in the print queue when I try to print wirelessly with my mac os x 10.9. The printer and router are turned on and I recently installed the printing software, as I've yet to print with this computer. I'm able to print with my windows 7 laptop fine. Any advice?

Welcome to the HP Forums @bg34,

 

I read your post about the printing issues you're facing on your Mac running 10.9 when printing to your Officejet 8600, and wanted to reply with my suggestions to help.

 

See this link, try the steps in order, and also try the "Other things to try" section, and you should be printing afterwards! 😄
