A warm welcome to HP Forums! This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips to your technical queries.

HP Officejjet 6850 is AirPrint compatible. With AirPrint, it's easy to print full quality photos and documents from your Mac. If the printer is connected to your home WiFi, then you may use the steps available below to setup the printer with Apple AirPrint.

Please ensure that the printer is up to date with its firmware and Mac is up to date with it's software. If you are unsure you may use the links below to update the printer and Mac software:

Update printer firmware

Update software on Mac 

 

1.) Click the Apple menu, click System Preferences, and then click Print & Scan or Printers & Scanners.

2.) Check if your printer name displays in the Printers list, If your printer is listed, click the printer name, click the minus sign to delete the printer.

3.) If you see multiple printer queues for the same printer, remove all extra printers by selecting them one at a time, and then clicking the minus button  at the bottom of the list.

4.) Click the plus sign , click Add Printer or Scanner, click the printer name.

5.) Click the Use or Print Using menu, select AirPrint or Secure AirPrint in the pop-up menu. Then click Add.

Select AirPrint from the Use menu

 

6.) Try to print.

If you would like to use HP Easy Scan and HP Utility, then you may use the links below to download and install them:

Hi!! 

 

I have already done all this...

My Problem was that, while I could print, I couldn't scan (from my Macbook),

Meanwhile Problem is solved by turning off IPv6 in the printers settings!! wow!

 

Nevertheless thanks for you reply!!
