Can't email scanned documents

Just changed to windows 8 and I'm banging my head against the wall with a scanning issue.
I have an 8600 set up wirelessly. When I scan a document (just one page) evrything looks like it's working. The scanner scans, the dialouge box work fine. I click on email pdf file, it shows up in my email. I type in the send to address, type the body of the email and click send. Everything looks like it's working but the emails aren't going out. They don't show up in my sent mail folder and the recipient doesn't receive them.
What am I doing wrong?

HP iPrint on iPhone/iPad - Can't email scanned document??? Am I missing something??

I bought a brand new C310A HP Photosmart Premium today to test something for work. I had heard that you could scan from the printer directly to an iPhone and/or iPad.   This was nearly a dream come true as we are looking to outfit our outside sales team (@ 40 people) with iPads or iPhones to allow printing and scanning while out in the field. Imagine my surprise when I get this thing setup and load HP iPrint on my phone and scan an image to a PDF and discover that I can't email the PDF document as an attachment. Am I missing something completely obvious here?
Not being able to do this seems so outrageous that I didn't even think to ask if I could email it after scanning or even investigate if it was possible. It's like buying a new car and asking if it has tires. Why of course it would. Why in the world would I want to scan a document to my phone or iPad if I wasn't going to want to send it somewhere using email at some point??
I see you can share your device and I guess access the documents from a PC or Mac directly but this hardly helps if that person has none.
Anybody have an explanation?
HP, if you monitor this site, please fix this ASAP!!   This is a terrible omission.

wow - i thought I was the only one who thought this today after buying a 310 today too!   I like the tire analogy    for the record, no, you didn't miss anything
but seriously - i'm glad u got the workaround to work - i tried it earlier and the image didn't show up in my camera roll so i got really perplexed
I'm going to post to the app store - stand alone wireless printing really has me get on board with HP again after some mediocre experiences over the past few years!
+1 on emailing - it's perfect to replace the need to fax!

How do I get my office jet 5742 to email scanned documents?

How can I email scanned documents?

Hi,
Please try:
You need to enter a valid email address, and the printer will send a 4 digit validation code to that email address. When you enter the code into the panel, it will register the email and you will be able to scan documents to send to any or all of the addresses that are defined to the printer as valid. The scanned item can be a document or a photo. The documents are sent as PDF's. The scan is routed to HP's e-print center, then routed to the address you specified. I'm not sure about the privacy issues involved in this, but the capability to do this exists, and seems to work well, but you need to wait a few minutes for the document to appear in your email.

Help! Can't email pages document in pdf

I'm trying to send a one-page letter that is to be inserted into a book. The recipient needs the document in PDF format. I saved it in PDF but when I try to attach it, the whole text prints out into the email instead of a link to an electronic pdf file. I am able to attach an electronic file of the Pages version, just not PDF. I'm using Hotmail and a 2011 MacBook Air with Pages '09 version 4.3.

BCG,
You are sending a PDF file. It's a feature of Mac Mail, and perhaps other email clients, that the content of a 1-page pdf is displayed automatically, but be assured there is an attachment there that your recepient can save and work with normally.

Emailing scanned documents?

After hooking up my computer and printer, I tried to scan a document and submit it for email which only prompted a message " no email program assocication to perform. Please install or create association in the default programs control panel." What??? and How??

what nokia says. save the scanned file, go to your email in your web browser, and save it as attachment.

Is there a program or app where I can take a scanned document and extract the text to transfer to a Pages document so I can alter it in Pages?

I have an old copy of a contract I used to use. I no longer have the digital copy and need to rewrite the contract to update it but want to use the bulk of it as it is. I do not want to have to rewrite the whole thing. Is the any software or apps that can scan this document and then transfer the text in its existing layout onto a pages document to allow me to make the neccesary changes?

Here's one you can check out to see if it fits your needs. There's a free version that will OCR one page at a time and a modestly priced version that has no limitations.

Can't read scanned document

While I was trying to print a scanned doc., It asked for a program to use like Paint, Word Pad etc.... I chose Word Pad and everything I scan come out as hypertext gibberish. How do I change that!

Hi lill2u,
It is recommended that you scan the document using the MP Navigator and then edit and save the document using Notepad. Once in Notepad you can copy and paste the document into your Word document. To do this, please follow these steps:
1. Click Start, select All Programs, Canon Utilities, MP Navigator EX then click on MP Navigator EX to open that program.
2. Place your item to be scanned face down on the scanner.
3. Click the One Click button in the upper right hand corner.
4. In One Click mode, please click the OCR button.
5. When the OCR dialog box appears, make any necessary changes and then click the green SCAN button.
6. The document will be scanned.
Once scanning is complete, Notepad will open and you will be able to edit and save the text.

Can't find scanned documents

I have a hp office jet pro 8600. I would say it's about 4 years old. It's the the scanner/printer/fax for my work, and we had a few documents scanned in a few days ago and need those retrieved. The problem is these files are no where to be found. They cannot be found by their file name in the search menu. They're not under scanned or my scans, or my documents. I've gone through several different forums trying different things but nothing seems to work!

When you go the the scan menu check all your settings to find the default directory that the files go to.

Can not email pages document as pdf

Every time that I try to send pages doc as pdf, I get the following message: Couldn't create message attachment. iwork encountered an error while attempting to create the attachment data.

Greetings Paulydf,
It seems you are experiencing an issue when attempting to send documents via email from Pages. Keep in mind that emailing from Pages requires your email account to be associated with the Apple Mail app. Are you currently using Apple Mail? The user guide may help in this situation:

How can I email a document I've created in pages?

On a Windows based computer you just right click , and the email option is displated. I can not find an email option under format, file, edit, or any other catagory. help/

Did you click on the options under Email?
The greyed out Email is just another of Apple's awful software design implementations.
It should have been a pop out menu, instead they greyed it out as a very bad attempt at making it a subhead.

How can I email a pages 08 document that doesn't have to be opened as an attachment by the recipient?? PS- I am using at&t mail.

How can I email a document created on Pages '08 that doesn't have to be opened as an attachment by
the recipients????
(I am using AT&T email)

"when I try save to PDF it just wants to save it to a file?"
Correct. The difference between "Mail PDF" and "Save PDF" is that the first opens a new Mail message with the file attached. the second saves a file which you may attach to an email message.
"Terrainathome is a good example of what I am trying to do."
Not familiar with Terrainathome, but my guess is that the company is sending an email message containing HTML code that downloads what's essentially a web page into the displayed message. To do that, you'll need a website, software that will produce the necessary HTML code, and recipients with email clients capable of interpreting HTML (which is 'most email clients' these days).

Can I scan documents with Image Capture?

I can no longer scan documents with my HP printer now that I have Maverick. I can scan pics with Image Capture. Is there any way to scan documents with image capture or with some other software?

Don't feel bad you are not alone. I have a HP photosmart C4780. Since upgrading to Mavericks it has been difficult to use the scan feature except via image scan. I spent well over a month on the HP forums trying to discern whether or not new drivers were being developed and essentially got the run around. Very crappy service from HP. I'll not purchase one of their products again. It appears that my all in one (which I brought through the Apple Store) is obsolete. Anyone got any advice. I'm contemplating seeing how many pieces it will shatter into upon being launched from my window.
