It sounds like your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus lost its network functionality after the reset. Here are some steps to troubleshoot:
Power Cycle the Printer
- Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source.
- Wait 60 seconds, then plug it back in and turn it on.
Check Network Settings
- On the printer’s touchscreen, go to Setup > Network Settings.
- If Restore Network Defaults is available, select it.
Perform a Hard Reset
- Unplug the printer from power.
- Remove the ink cartridges (optional but can help).
- Press and hold the Power button for 15-20 seconds to discharge residual power.
- Plug the printer back in and turn it on.
