Hello lou, What is the operating system on the computer you want to install the printer on? Depending on the OS, you would download the Full Featured Software for that OS.Then making sure you have your USB cord ready to connect the two together, install the software and follow the instructions as it installs. Connect the USB cord when it tells you to. Here is the support page for that printer. It gives the download options and manuals you would want.HP Photosmart C6380 All-in-One Printer Manuals | HP® Support IF you need further help, let me know.Thanks.

All in One Printer/Scanner/Copier/Fax Recommendations

Hi,
I'm looking to purchase an all in one printer/scanner/copier/fax device. I was wondering what recommendations other people have. The main purpose would be to print photos, scan photos and some small business office printing. Note, a fax would be nice, but is not absolutely neccessary.
Scanning photos would be important, since I plan to scan our family's photo albums into iPhoto.
Also, is there a printer than can communicate with the Mini using bluetooth? If so , does it work well?
Since I have limited desk space, size would be an issue (smaller the better).
Looking to spend about $200, slightly more if the cost justifies itself. Less is always better.
Thanks in advance!

The Brother MFC-420cn
http://www.brother-usa.com/MFC/ModelDetail.aspx?ProductID=MFC420CN
does everything you ask for less than $100 -- except bluetooth.
The Pluses: Good Mac software. Cheap ink. Networkable.
The construction is flimsy plastic, but if you are gentle it will hold up.
Definitely small footprint.
Paper path is 180 degrees, which is not my preference.
Personally, I prefer Epson all-in-ones. Also good Mac software and 80 degree paper path for less jamming. Exceptional scan quality.

Scanning on my c5280 all in one printer-scanner-copier

since purchasing my lap running windows 8.1 I have been unable to scan from my all in one printer to my pc. all it allows you to do is to scan the document to a memory card or reprint the image

Hello , Welcome to the HP Community. I'd like to help you with the issue you are having scanning on your Windows 8.1 system with your HP Photosmart C5280 All-in-One printer. I would suggest installing the full feature software for your product. Fortunately, the full software suite is still available for download for your Windows 8.1 operating system. You can download the software here: HP Photosmart C5200 All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver If the issue persists, I suggest trying to install the printer using the Windows Update. You can find all of the steps to do that here (under Step Two: Method Two): HP Single-Function and Multifunction Printers - The Printer Does Not Print in Windows 8 and is Listed as 'Unknown' or 'Unspecified' or Appears with a Yellow Triangle in the Devices and Printers Folder If you're still unable to scan after installing the printer using Windows Update, try downloading the HP Scan and Capture app from the Windows Store. Please respond to let me know if these suggestions helped to resolve your issue!

Can't scan from brand-new HP PSC 1600 all-in-one printer/scanner/copier

Just installed this new all-in-one, and the printer and copier work perfectly. But when I try to scan, it won't do anything. Error message says to configure a "scan destination." But the menu to do so, on the desktop, won't open at all. Just stalls and stalls. Everything else seems to work fine, so no connection problems. Anybody know how to shake this menu loose?
iMac G3, iBook G3 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I've been using the HP psc 1210v for about a year now, and I've always been able to print, but scanning (which I do very infrequently) has always been a problem. Typically, to use the scanner, I have to remove the printer and re-install with the latest drivers from HP's (currently 7.7.2).
So, after doing this again, I was able to scan a couple of images by using the "HP Device Manager". I just double-click on "Scan Picture", which opens the "HP Scan" application, and I can choose from there how to scan; either opening in another Application or Save to File.
I'm using 10.4.6, but I know I originally scanned some images using this printer in 10.3.9. Hopefully this will continue to work!

Re: scanner failure hp 4280 all in one printer scanner copier

Can anyone help me please?
I have an HP Photosmart C4280 which will print but will not scan when using it with my Apple Mac.
I have looked at the various posts and have installed, deleted, re-installed. The Mac sees the printer and sees the scanner too.
This morning the printer has now decided to print in miniature so that anything that I print you need a magnifying glass to read. This is so aggravating. I have tried to resolve this but have failed miserably.
Any suggestions would be gratefully received. Thanks!
This question was solved.

If you are using Snow Leopard and have HP software for pre-Snow Leopard (either from a CD not marked as compatible with 10.6 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and had the HP software on your Mac before you upgraded - even if you did a standard uninstall of the old software or installed new software over the top of it) you must uninstall the software using the 'scrubber' option:
Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller
Click on Continue
Highlight your device on the left pane
Hold the Ctrl, Opt and Cmd keys and click on Uninstall
There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
Click Continue and let it finish
Restart your Mac
Now, run a Software Update.
Finally, download and install the "Full Featured" Driver and Software from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.

HP Photosmart C4480 All in One Printer Scanner Copier

I am scanning scrapbook pages with a white background. However, my scanner picks up reds and/or pinks and tints the white parts of the page, so I am not getting a true color. Is there a way to adjust?

Problem setting up HP 6310 all-in-one printer/scanner

I have just installed archlinux for the first time, and so far everything is working great except for a HP 6310 all-in-one printer/scanner. This printer is connected by wire to a router, and the computer communicates with the router over a wireless connection. I have managed to install the printer through cups and print a test page. The problem is getting hplip and sane set up. I belive that if I get hplip set up correctly that that will take care of the sane problem.

I have a feeling that the problem is here:

Something about the backend isn't right, but I'm out of my depth here. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
One other point. It works with no problem in Ubuntu with both hplip and sane, so I know it is possible. I just haven't figured out the trick yet.

Well, it's fixed now, but I'm not sure why. I hooked up a HP 3970 usb scanner to my computer and when I started xsane it not only found it, but also found the 3610 all-in-one on the network. I checked hp-tools, and the 3610 was there also.So everything is working now, but I'm still curious as to why the 3610 wouldn't work with sane and hp-setup until I plugged in the 3970 to the computer.

Power problem with my 4620 all in one printer / scanner / fax

Hi,
My problem is this. I have a 4620 all-in-one printer / scanner / fax. However, I have discovered this problem.
Scenario:
The printer hasn't been used for a day or two but is plugged in still with the light above the power cord on. I want to print a word doc or whatever. I click print. I obtain a message that the computer (via wifi) can't communicate with the printer. Pressing the Power on button on the printer interface doesn't work.
My solution, I have to disconnect the power supply from the printer, then reconnect and then press the Power On button.
This isn't normal I think. I don't think for one minute that I should have to go and disconnect and reconnect the power suppy for it to print etc.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance!!

Scan Control from HP 1210 All in one Printer/Scanner

I now have Macbook with OS 10.6.8.
Used to have 10.4.11
We have an HP 1210 All in one printer/scanner.
With 10.4 there was a very clear and user friendly utility provided by HP that enabled good scan control.
It enabled multiple choices of destination filetype and multiple pages scanned into a single document.
Now I have 10.6.
I have done S/W update both with printer connected and disconnected.
I have been offered and have downloaded the latest version of s/w from HP.
Nowhere on my Mac is there a file that has any name like HP, Hewlett Packard or PSC or 1210
The utility is there somewhere because I can print, and, if I have the printer active, I can use the utility to check ink levels etc.
However the ONLY scan facility is the Mac IMage Capture.
This only does single pages and only scans to jpeg.
What do I have to do to get my full scan control facility back and active as provided by HP
Steve B

steve.br wrote:
However I repeat, There is no s/w that the system can find that is labled HP, Hewlett or PSC or 1200. Not in applications or Utilities or anywhere I can see.
If I use the Finder File Find utility I can search for files with any of those attributes and nothing related is found.
Path should be HD/Library/Printers/hp
Within the hp folder are several folders with one titled "Utilities" and within that folder is the application HP Utility
Path HD/Library/Printers/hp/Utilites/HP Utility
Since it's to be accessed from the System Preferences Print & Fax tab/pane/icon or within Image Capture, that is why those files are not in the Applications folder nor Utilities folder. It is not to be launched directly, i.e., double clicked. Be careful accessing files in the main Library folder (i.e., HD/Library/).
FYI: I have all those folders on all my computers each using a different OS even though the only HP printer I use is a 1995 Laserjet 4MV.
I Have just done a test using the SystemPreferences Printer area and get sent to the Image capture function.
So, that was after clicking the Scan tab in System Preferences > Print & Fax? It's most likely using the HP Software that you noted downloading in your original post. It is not using some phantom software.
I want to be able to save a multiple page document file in .pdf format.
I use Acrobat Professional to scan as PDF with a Brother multifuction device that is equiped with a 30 page auto document feeder (ADF). Since the HP 1210 is a flat-bed scanner, it seems that your wish can be achieved by scanning and saving each page as separate documents and then combining those documents. I cannot remember whether Apple Preview in 10.6.x offers combining PDFs but there are a number of freeware and shareware apps that can.
Is there a conversion capability that would convert from .jpeg to .pdf
Apple Preview, Adobe Photoshop, GraphicConverter are just a few apps that come to mine.
Thanks for your help.
You're welcome. A lot has changed since Mac OS 10.4.11. Hope the above helps too.
