Best way to scan from office jet pro 8600 to mac pro and attach to email

What is the best way to scan from an officejet pro 8600 printer to a mac pro desktop, attach and scan?

dunno if you can do it directly, but, assuming the drivers are up-to-date, use Image Capture*, which should get you  a scan, then save it, then when sending the email, click on the paperclip,  and choose whatever it was that you scanned, wherever you saved it....
and then send it.

*Preview might work, but I don't recall 100% if it does...
don't recall seeing anything that'd let you scan something in, then have it go directly to email and send it out, one-step

  • Can't scan from Office Jet Pro 8600

    I can't scan from my Office Jet Pro 8600.  I'm connected to my home Verizon Fios wireless network.  I'm running Windows XP.  The printer works fine, but I can't scan.  When I use the display on the printer I get a "No Computer Found" message.  When I go to find the scanner on the Control Panel/Scanners & Cameras - I can see the printer listed, but when I click on the printer, I get a message that reads: "The scanning software could not be found, or your scanner is not connected.  Please make sure your scanner & your scanner software are properly installed."    So then I use the HP Print & Scan Doctor to download to "Get Installer" presumably to download the software.  After the software downloads, there is no difference.  I still can scan, & the network is not seeing the scanner.  What gives?

    Hello,
    I see that an issue has popped up that pertains to NOT being able to scan.

  • What's the best way to configure my thunderbolt drive with the new mac pro?

    I have an external pegasus drive connected to my mac pro.  Obviously the computer is limited in space and I was wondering whether I should move my "user" folder which will include documents, pictures, videos, etc onto the pegasus.  That way the 256gb hard drive on the mac pro is dedicated solely for the os and and apps.  What do you guys think?

    I concur. See the following:
    How to use an SSD with your HDD
    If you are going to use an SSD as a boot drive together with your existing HDD as the "data" drive, here's what you can do.
    After installing the SSD you will need to partition and format the SSD using Disk Utility. Then, install OS X on the SSD. After OS X has been installed boot from the SSD. Use Startup Disk preferences to set the SSD as the startup volume.
    Open Users & Groups preferences. Click on the lock icon and authenticate. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on your user account listing in the sidebar and select Advanced Options from the context menu.
    You will see a field labeled "Home dir:" At the right end you will see a Change button. Click on it. In the file dialog locate the Home folder now located on the HDD (HDD/Users/account_name/.) Select the folder, click on Open button. Restart the computer as directed.
    When the computer boots up it will now be using the Home folder located on the HDD.
    Another more technical method involving the Terminal and aliases is discussed in depth here: Using OS X with an SSD plus HDD setup - Matt Gemmell. This is my preferred approach because I can select which of the Home's folders I want on the HDD and which I don't want. For example, I like to keep the Documents and Library folders on the SSD because I access their content frequently.
    Be sure you retain the fully bootable system on your HDD in case you ever need it.

  • What is the best way to scan from HP MFP to SharePoint 2010?

    Does anyone know if an HP MFP can be made to scan into a SharePoint 2010 folder?  HP MFPs such as the HP CM3530 offer scan-to-email and scan-to-folder functions.  The scan-to-folder function does not seem to be able to access a SharePoint 2010
    folder.  I suspect it has something to do with the difference between typical file sharer and the webshares on SharePoint.  I could use the scan-to-email, sending the scanned document to a email enable SharePoint folder but this seems like a rather
    ham-handed approach.  Why should I send all my scans through the Exchange server when the MFP should be able to save the PDF directly to the SharePoint 2010 folder.

    Hi,
    It is not possible to scan to SharePoint library from HP MPFS.
    You may try to use some plug-in to get it to talk to SharePoint, for more information, you can refer to:http://www.darkblueduck.com/Products/ScanningEnabler2010.aspx

  • Best way to Export from FCP HD 4.5 to Logic Pro

    I have a wonderful musician who will be fixing my sound. I asked him how he would like my documentary project.
    He said, " 24 bit 44.1 would be fine. If you want to do it at 48 or if it is already at 48 then send as is. Just give me what you have with the audio in aiff format. The Quicktime video preferably scene by scene.
    Since I don't know anything about Logic I thought I would ask you.
    Thanks Renee

    Ask him if he can take an OMF.

    I have the Printer Pro app, and it seems to do a good job locating my wireless printer, but it gets complicated to print webpages or pages documents. What is the best way to print from an iPad 2?

    If you have a compatible printer, use AirPrint http://www.apple.com/ipad/features/airprint.html and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
    If not, you would need to purchase software, such as:

    What is the best way to scan and sort old photos in iPhoto?  They do not have digital dates.

    Hey Chicago Sue,
    Once you scan them and have them on your desktop. You should use Automator and assign the common IPTC tags to the images, so that when you do import them into iPhoto, they get recorded.
    Here is an example of an action in Automator:

  • I'd like to carry my system, applications and files on a portable Thunderbolt ssd drive and boot from it.  I have a Mac Pro in the office, iMac at home

    I'd like to carry my system, applications and files on a portable Thunderbolt ssd drive and boot from it.  I have a Mac Pro in the office, iMac at home, a MacBook Air for when I'm on the road, all with TB.  Can a single external TB drive boot all three hardware configurations successfully?  I've been told that differences in hardware configurations between the systems make this impossible.  Is this correct?

    Piece or peace of cake really though.
    A quick install on new hard drive or SSD or 10K and less than an hour to move everything over properly.
    YOU looked for a quick fix and found none and all the brick walls.
    It is not  days of work to do a clean install and migrate.
    There are few if any apps that need to be freshly installed either though there are updates needed for them to be compliant, any driver or plugin also and that is done ahead of time with research.
    And your backup or clone of your system is taken care of - you leave the old system boot drive 'as is' untouched.
    Also, better strategy to move most all your home folder (except for its own ~/Library) to ANOTHER disk drive and not on t he system drive at all.
    As for applications on its own drive or 3rd party, beeen there done that, even SSD or 15K SCSI - no benefit in performance or organization.

    smgchandler,
    Any camcorder that can connect via USB or that can save to an SD card can interface with an iPad if you have the iPad Camera Connection Kit so that you can watch your videos on the new iPad's beautiful retina display.  You can find this on the Apple website or in most big box retail stores.

  • Best way to read from a file

    What would be the best way to read from a file. Which classes do I need to use?
    I have to write a program, which reads data from a comma separated flat file, parse it and after inserting some busineess logic insert into a databse .
    I will have to read the data line by line.
    Any help????

    I would use:
         public void readData()
              try
                   data = new String[this.countRows("comp.txt")][];
                   BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("comp.txt"));
                   for(int x = 0; x < data.length; x++)
                        StringTokenizer temp = new StringTokenizer(br.readLine(), "?");
                        data[x] = new String[temp.countTokens()];
                        for(int y = 0; y < data[x].length; y++)
                             data[x][y] = temp.nextToken();
              catch(Exception e)
                   System.out.println(e.toString());
         private int countRows(String f)
              int t = 0;
              try
                   BufferedReader brCountRows = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(f));
                   while(brCountRows.readLine() != null)
                        t++;
              catch(Exception e)
                   System.out.println(e.toString());
                   return t;
              return t;
         }It works deliciously!

  • Best way to go from FCP to After Effects and back?

    Hi guys,
    What's the best way to go from FCP (5) to AE (7)? I'm exporting as a Quicktime Movie, but not self-contained. Then from AE I make a Quicktime Movie
    and drag it back to FCP.
    Is this the best method?

  • What is the easiest way to move my iPhoto library from my macbook to my new mac pro?

    What is the easiest way to move my iPhoto library from my macbook to my new mac pro?

    Surprisingly easy! Go into the Finder, then into the Photos Library. In there, there will be a file called your iPhoto Library. It holds all your photos, essentially a special type of folder. Using an external hard drive transfer it to the same location on your new Mac. Now, when you boot iPhoto on the new Mac, it will recognise it and you'll see all your photos instantly!
    There's a really good video on it here...
