My post is headed "Officejet Pro 8600 will not stay connected wirelessly". Please monitor if it helps.
No feedback yet. Agree that this shd be easier and I have also spent hours. Always time you cannot get back. I am going to try and get a wire to the printer (but will not be easy) b/c I have had enough of wireless issues to last a lifetime. My previous printer, Canon PIXMA MG5320, never gave me issues until the printer head went out of alignment and could not be fixed. It only lasted 18 months and we are extremely light users. My previous Canon worked for 5+ years. NOT wireless.
I updated my routers and that got me connected...I cannot get output. Interestingly, I was just able to scan a document.
Brutal.
