I have the same problem. Does anyone know where are the drivers for windows 10. Also, I'm able to downloand the HP print scan doctor, however, once it tells me I need the software drivers because their are not install in my computer for  my officerject 8500 A909g, it still recommend the HP print scan doctor but no drivers.

Thanks for the heads-up.  Look like the web site has been updated.  This time HP.com identified a driver even while recognizing my system as Windows 10.  Previously it came up empty.  Downloaded and installed.  Can't test as not at printer location but assume it will be OK.

Hi

I have problem with installation my printer. I can add this using Windows an add network printer, this works fine, but I can't use scanner on my 8500 Pro.

 

I try install full software for Officejet 8500 Pro after using hp print and scan but this software can't find my printer.

HP Scan and Capture from windows store can't work with my printer.

 

Anyone could help me to resolve my problem?

Ther is a driver for this Printer with Windows 10, but you have to download the full software, you can find it in the site from HP, otherwise send me a mail and I will mail it to you my email address: barracuda375@gmail.com

If you have the software alread installed, and can not make it work like should be, then format your computer, many times the computer have mistakes that no allow you to make it work your printer to his full capacity, I had have the same problem many times and I solved this formating my computer.

 

If you do not have the software let me know and I will mail it to you, my address: [Personal Information Removed]
