Q: I need help connetting my Macbook Pro to my HP Officejet Pro 8600

I just purchased a IPHone 6 Plus and it will not print wirelessly to my HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer. I am typing this on a MacBook Pro and have never had any problems connecting from my MacBook Pro to my HP Office jet Pro 8600.

 

Please help.

MacBook (13-inch Late 2009), iOS 7.1

    Hi 

     

    For an iPhone to be able to print wirelessly you need an AirPrint enabled printer - the MBP does not have this limitation / constraint

    The printer you list is not found in the list supplied by Apple here About AirPrint - Apple Support

    You can use the following app to set up the iPhone to print wirelessly on this printer - https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/hp-eprint-home-biz/id299531647?mt=8

    This solution is specific to an HP printer without AirPrint

    Else you can download a program called HandyPrint to your Mac - with that on the Mac - NOT the phone - the phone documents are routed through the Mac onto the printer wirelessly. Needless to say this solution depends on you having the Mac booted and on the same network as the phone and the printer.
