I'm still finding my printer powered off.  It's going into sleep mode, then powering off after a day of inactivity.  How do I fix this???

Pro 8600.  I changed to IP address and it's been working for 24 hours now.  Why do we have to do that?  It should stay connected just like me old 2710.

If every time it was going off it was loosing it's IP, that typically means the DHCP server in your router is going out. It should be able to align with the printer to maintain it's IP automatically. If it's not, it's going out. You may want to look at replacing your router before other devices start having problems.

None of my other devices have this problem.  My old Photosmart 2710 never had an IP problem either.  Seems to be good now that I assigned it and address of ***.***.*.111 for the IP.  HOpefully its stays on now.  Still working as of the fix three days ago.  Maybe the instructions whoudl indicate this for future reference. 

 

Thx for responding!

How do you change the sleep setting on the 8600?  Mine only allows for 5, 10, or 15 min delay.

 

Can you turn it off?
