Why can't I scan a document to a PDF file on an L7650

I purchased an L7650 in 2008. It used to scan to PDF files. About 2 yrs ago it stopped allowing the PDF option. Why? I recently updated all the software through HP but the PDF scan option still is not available.

Hello Topcat,
Thanks for replying to me with that information, that helps! I have a few ideas in mind to try out.
1. Run the Print and Scan Doctor tool. This may correct the problem all on its own. If not, continue.
2. Uninstall the Printer Software
3. Restart the PC
4. Reinstall the printer here by downloading and running the installation - HP Officejet Pro Full Feature Software and Driver
You can run the Print and Scan Doctor again if you wish, and can download the tool to your desktop and run it every time you have a printer issue.
Let me know the results, have a great Monday

  • Why can't I scan a document to pages so I can make changes?

    Why can't I scan a document on my HP Printer to my MacBook Pro as a pages document?

    Because scans are image files and not text files. You will need some sort of OCR software to convert the image to an editable document.

  • Why can't I print a map from a PDF file?

    I am going to the website   http://www.atac.roma.it/   which is the public transit system for Rome, Italy. If you scroll down and click on the green button for     Linee e Mappe     and then scroll down on the next page and click on the PDF file for the      Line e Elettriche     you will get the map for the electric buses that runs through Rome. You will notice at the top of that page on my computer it says        "doc.pdf(secured) Adobe Reader".     You will also notice that there is no option to print the map. This did not used to be the case as I have printed maps off this site before.
    I do not have any add-on for Adobe reader. I am able to print PDF files. I do it all the time. I just did it now, but when I have those pages open I do have the option to print.
    I don't have any problem viewing the page, either the website or the PDF file of the map. I just can not print it. Because it says "Secured" would the mean that  ATAC.Roma does not want everyone printing their map?
    Thank you,
          TomS

    That is because the document's security settings disallows printing (as well as everything else).

  • Why can't I send a fill in application (PDF file)?

    I can't send a fill in application (PDF file) in Adobe Reader from my Mac (version 11.0.04), but it works fine from my PC (version 11.0.05). Why?
    I get this massage (danish):
    "Der opstod en fejl under afsendelsen: Indhold af typen text/html; charset=utf-8 kan ikke behandles."
    How do I get it to work?

    It doesn't go through my emil. The PDF file just connects to the internet and "sends" is.
    On the picture, you can se the button I press (underneath the message box), and in the corner you can see it trying to send the data.  

  • Why can't I scroll through documents in my book file?

    I am new to Framemaker. I am working on book building. I know that once documents are part of a .book file that I should be able to scroll through from one document in the book to another document.  I have not been able to do that in my .book files. I have sent the .book file to my instructor and he is able to, but I can't. ???  Anyone know why would that be? I am using Framemaker 10 in Windows 7. Thanks in advance!

    kkm2164 wrote:
    I have tried it when the .fm files are all open. I have also tried it by double clicking on a file in the book window and in the file that opens, I start scrolling down to the end. My understanding is that initially, Frame asks you whether to open the next file. But it does not for me. I can only scroll through that one file.
    I don't have FrameMaker available to test, but IIRC, you need to scrill down with arrow keys, not drag through text or with the scroll bar. I'm not sure that keyboard shortcuts like tapping and letting-go Esc p n (for page next) in sequence works.

  • Why can I only get the option to print pdf files

    Hi,
    I have a website app that uses CR13sp2 and VS2010sp2.  The reports were created with CR10 and are retrieved
    to be printed via the VS2010 CR13 app.
    I get receive a window which reads:
    The viewer must export to PDF to print. Choose the Print option from the PDF reader application once the document is opened. Note: You must have a PDF reader installed to print. (eg. Adobe Reader)
    The server is sql server 2003 and I have loaded all the latest runtimes for CR10
    Can someone tell me what wrong.  There are no CR13 reports passed to the app
    Isaac

    And to set the export types use this code:
    // set up the format export types:
    int myFOpts = (int)(

    You will need to create your own Print button to be able to use all types.

  • Why can't I open a document in Adobe Reader?

    Why can't I open a document in Adobe Reader?

    I have been having the same issue since January. Oddly, I can read the docs that I scan as pdf on my iPad but not on my Mac or PC. I receive the following message:
    "Adobe Reader could not open '_____.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."
    It doesn't matter if I use Safari, Chrome, etc.
    I have the most up to date Adobe products.

  • Why can't I print a document from iphone5 to hp wireless printer?

    Why can't I print a document from iphone5 to hp wireless printer?

    Try the following steps.
    Power off the printer.
    Reset the phone by holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot.
    Power cycle your router. Disconnect it from power for about 30 seconds and then power it back on.
    Once it has completed the reboot, then power the printer back on and make sure it connects to the wi-fi network
    Open the content on the phone that you want to print and attempt printing it again.
    If that does not do it, then check to see if there is any newer firmware for the printer from HP.

    Thanks Jeff, I was not aware that a template could be multi-page.  (All the existing templates were 1 page)
    But it worked, saving me some steps.  When I was finished I renamed the document, and locked it.
    Then tried to save it but  could not because it was locked.  I closed it, went to my Spread Sheet Folder ,
    to find it, it was not there.  The Finder could not find it either.
    So I start over again.
    I opened up Numbers and it showed my personal Numbers template folder, it contained both my new 
    original 4 page template and the vanished saved document!
    I tried to delete the template containing these document data and could not - I had to go to the Library/Application Support/Numbers to physically remove it from this folder. Then I started over again.  I Finally found out how to make it work: I can now "save as", and then lock, and it will go to place where I want it to be saved and locked.
    The secret is: Click on the document title in the menu bar, and it opens up  "Save as...", which works the same as in OS 10.4.11, and you can pick the place you want for saving.  Once done that, you can then lock the document in the same pull down menu, and then close it.
    I also found later that I can delete a template from its folder, by letting Numbers open the templates,
    clicking on the one I want to remove, then go to the "Numbers Menu/File/Move to...", select "Desktop"
    and from there the selected template can then be thrown into the Trash from there.
    It appears now that the real fault of the Numbers software is that the "Save as" command is not available in the "Edit" or "File" pull-down menus, but hidden behind the title of the document.

    Just thought I'd add my solution, I decided to go with WebDAV and I think it actually works better than the iTunes way, the steps are pretty much the same but avoiding the iTunes interface just makes things easier and faster.
    I followed this guide but it does have a small mistake in the httpd-dav.conf file, on line 2, where it's WebServer/WebDAV">, it should be <Directory "/Library/WebServer/WebDAV">.
    The tricky part is setting permissions which if wrong will give you errors when connecting with the iPad, I opted to set all to Read&Write since my home network has a hardware firewall. Another convenience was to add an alias to the webdav share on the Desktop.
    I'm still expecting the call from Apple but even if they fix the iTunes I'm sticking with WebDAV, atleast until I see what's new with iOS5 and iCloud this fall which should bring true sync for documents (I'm hoping that they will offer encryption with my own keys, if not, then I'll probably keep using WebDAV).

  • Why can't I open a document with the password

    why can't I open a document with the said right password!!!! !

    Hi Anthony,
    What problem are you facing in opening the document? Is there any error message?
    I would recommend you to try again and as passwords are case sensitive so please make sure that you type the password in exactly same case sequence as you did when you set the password.
