On the Officejet Pro 8500, you can print out a self-test diagnostic page that shows a lot of information about the printer, such as ink levels, total page count, firmware version, serial number, and more. To print the self-test diagnostic page:
- Press the Setup button (below the display screen, with the wrench icon on it)
- Press the right arrow button once so that "2. Print Report" is displayed on the screen
- Press the OK button to select it
- Use either the right or left arrow buttons to scroll through the options until you see "4. Self-Test Report"
- Press OK to select it, and the self-test diagnostic page will begin printing
If you just want to see details about the network configuration, you can choose to print the network settings page instead of the self-test diagnostic page. To print the network configuration page:
- Press the Setup button (below the display screen, with the wrench icon on it)
- Press the right arrow button once so that "2. Print Report" is displayed on the screen
- Press the OK button to select it
- Use either the right or left arrow buttons to scroll through the options until you see "8. Network Settings"
- Press OK to select it, and the configuration page (which is actually two pages long) will begin printing
Note that the network config page for this printer doesn't include the page count, but the self-test diagnostic page does.
Printer configuration pages often tell you useful information about a printer, such as its page count or meter, network settings, and toner levels. To find instructions for printing a configuration page, click on the manufacturer's name on the green bar below.
