My officejet pro 8600 plus used to work with web printing but stopped one day. I’ve tried to activate the web services again but have had no luck. Everytime I try, I get a message on the printer saying that web services could not be enabled. I have opened up my firewall thinking that it was preventing the printer from working. Any suggestions?
