Can you scan w/officejet 4500 to Windows 8.1RT surface

We checked the window8.1 rt compatibility to see if the the HP Officejet 4500 Wireless All-in-One G510n to z printer would work on the Surface (since our 4400 would not). The 4500 is compatible. We got the wireless network set up, got the printer on the network and we can print wirelessly - yeah!  BUT we can not scan. The HP Scan and Capture App only lets us use the camera to "scan" the document. We would prefer to use the glass to scan documents (they come out better).  We have looked all over the web for solutions, some say to enable EWS - We accessed the printer via its IP address, but we don't see the "scan" tab all the sources say to access.
Is it possible to scan using the HP Officejet 4500 Wireless All-in-One G510n to z to a Windows Surface (8.1rt)?
(FYI we can't update any drivers, windows RT platform does not allow it and we don't have any other computer to work from.)
Thanks

Hi jacorcoran. Scanning should be possible with built in scanning capability. This document shows 2 different ways to scan in the "Windows RT" section.
How to Scan: Windows RT or Windows 8 Tablets:

If this doesn't allow for scanning, the printer's scanning component will need to be troubleshot. Make sure you can do a stand alone copy (direct from the front of the printer) to ensure the scanning hardware is functioning. Let me know how it goes.

  • Can't Scan from OfficeJet 4500 AIO over Network

    My home network setup:
    Cisco E2100L router
    Directly connected to my OfficeJet 4500 (non-wireless) via Cat6.
    Wirelessly Connected:
    My MacBook C2D running Snow Leopard (10.6.4) with most current HP drivers from Apple and current software+drivers for the AIO installed from HP's website.
    My wife's Vista laptop, HP Pavillion DV6000 series, current Windows updates and current HP software+drivers for the AIO installed from HP's website.
    My home server, homebrewed Athlon X4 running Ubuntu 10.10 (just upgraded) with no HP software or drivers for the AIO installed.
    All three machines can print to the AIO. All three can see and setup to use the printer as a default printer and can access the AIO's webserver (to view up status, supplies, etc.).
    My problem: My Macbook and my wife's Windows laptop cannot scan from the AIO. My Ubuntu server somehow can. The last is what weirds me out the most, but as the first two deal with HP's software, that's where my focus is.
    I've tried completely removing all software/drivers from each of the laptops, powered off the AIO, installed all the software again from scratch (with most current download from HP) and had the same results; can print, no scan. I'm out of ideas on what to do. Can anyone please help me out?

    I even got the HP iPrint 3.0 app, and it doesn't work either!  Then I found out my Officejet is not compatible:

  • I can not set up my officejet 4500 with windows 8

    I NEED HELP
    I can not set up my officejet 4500 with windows 8 
    I put disk in but no good

    You  can get the software from your printer's website:
    Start at
    HP 4500 officejet
    Select your exact model, put in your Operating System...
    You are looking for the Product Installation Software -- the Full Feature Software for your OS
    Download the package, it may be large..
    Then install it... Reboot your computer after the installation.
    That may do it!
    Good Luck!

  • HT4505 can you scan 4x6 photos using Image Capture that will actually scan as a 4x6 photo. I have to crop the photo once it is scanned

    Can you scan multiple 4x6 photos using image Capture that will actually scan as a 4x6 photo? I seem to have to crop each photo once it is scanned.

    How long is a string?
    The answer depends on a large number of variables
    Cropping removes the area cropped off so the pixel size of a cropped photos is smaller than an upcropped one
    With iPhoto you can always revert ot the original so if the new quality is not enough for your use you can go back to the uncropped original
    size - many meanings
    DPI - simple - Dots Per Inch - the number of dots (pixels) in a dimension divided by the number of inches of the display(print) - very simple math
    Pixels and dots are the same for this discussion
    so if a photo is shot in a 3:2 ratio (6x4 is also a 3:2 ratio) then the photo is the shape of a 4x6 photo with no cropping - is a photo shot in a 4:3 ratio is cropped to a 4:6 ratio (which is also a 3:2 ratio) then some information is going to be removed - assuming that you set the cropping frame as large as possible in one direction and only crop two sides then you lose the minimum amount of information
    Most iPhoto uses of photos are designed aroung 4:3 photos so in general I would only recommend cropping 4:3 photos if you want to print them in standard print sizes
    iPhoto slide shows will work best with 4:3 photos so cropping to 4:6 would be a mistake

  • Can you convert a favourites file from windows to a bookmark file for mac?

    can you convert a favourites file from windows to a bookmark file for mac?

    I can't answer for Internet Explorer but you should be able to export Bookmarks from FireFox. If you can't export from IE you may be able to import from EI to FireFox first.
    In FireFox, menu BookMarks>Organize Bookmarks, then in the pane which opens, menu File>Export (that's how it works on Linux so Windows should be broadly similar). The result should be an html file.
    You may be able to import this into Safari on your Mac; certainly you should be able to import it into FireFox and perhaps from there to Safari if necessary.

  • Can you use Time Capsule on a windows and 2 macs at the same time.

    Can you use Time Capsule on a windows and 2 macs at the same time as either a backup for one and a seperate HD drive for two?

    Yes.
    From one viewpoint the Time Capsule is just NAS (Networked Attached Storage) and it supports the file sharing protocols necessary for both Windows and Macs.
    From the viewpoint of the Macs it can also be used by Time Machine for backups.
    As NAS it can be used for storing files, and there are many backup software packages that support NAS on both Windows and Macs.
    In addition from a networking point of view it can serve as a router, wireless access point etc.

  • HP Officejet 4500 G510g windows 7 64 bit impossible to download working driver from HP

    Hi
    I am connecting to an HP officejet 4500 with no installation discs.   I have been trying to download driver from HP .  All the installations just advise tht it has stopped working.  I have downloaded the correct drivers from HP website using Chrome and IE but same issues.   It would appear that HP just do not have any "working drivers" available for this printer.   
    I am aware that I need to not have the usb cable attached when installing the driver.  I have now tried installing same driver so many times now maybe I need to uninstal the previous driver instal attempts.
    Either way, the HP printer ran out of warrenty Nov 2011 so I cannot chat direct to HP but guess could call them at a cost but just to get a working driver this should not be necessary.
    The Product code of the printer appears to be CB867A.
    Any advice much appreciated as otherwise it will have to go in the bin and never HP again.
    Cheers

    Hi John,
    First of all, click the start button and type %temp% within the search box.
    Open the listed Temp folder.
    Remove any of this folder's contrent by clicking CTRL + A and then the Delete key.
    Any of this contect is a temporary content and can be deleted with no issues.
    Next run the OJ4500vG510g_m_Full_13-en.exe once again.
    Once the error appears again, run the patch as you listed on your previous post once again.
    If it still points to the A-F folder, open the newly created HP folder within the same Temp folder, copy its path and paste it into the patch once it shows the installation path and check for any change.
    Please let me know if that may help,
    Shlomi

  • Can't scan on Officejet 4630 all-in-one

    Hi all - help required please.
    Recently bought an Officejet 4630 All-in-One Printer and had nothing but trouble setting it up and using it. After several set up attempts, all is just about in order although I still can't scan from the control panel on the machine (I can only scan by going through 'system preferences' under the apple icon).  Every time I try to scan from the machine's control panel (as opposed to going through system preferences), using either the wireless network (Airscan or whatever it is called) or the USB cable, I receive the following message on my laptop screen:
    Task not Available
    The "Photo (JPEG)" task found on your device is not available on your system. Please select another task.
    The same thing happens if I try to scan to PDF. I am using an old (c.2007 MacBook Pro) that runs of OSX10.9.5 Mavericks. Internet connectivity is not a problem as we have good cable broadband. All I want to do is scan directly from the printer to my computer, preferably using a wireless connection. Please help.
    Thanks

  • Can you read files stored on the Windows partition through Mac OSX?

    I'm new to Mac, getting one soon, so correct me if I'm wrong in assuming that OS X can make shortcut folders to other locations on the disk drive like windows can.
    I'm getting a 500GB hard drive and have a decent movie collection to store on the hard drive, and the Macbook Pro is coming preconfigured with 256GB each for Mac and Windows. I won't really put much on the Windows side, so I thought maybe I could put my movies on the Windows side and then create a shortcut over to there and place it on my Mac side desktop, so that when I click on it, it takes me to the folder in Windows which stores the movies, so that I would still have easy access to them but they would be counted under Windows' partition. First off can you make shortcuts like that, going cross partition? And secondly, I just assumed they would open fine as long as I got VLC player, until I read stuff about NTFS and HTS+ and stuff, meaning Mac can't write to Windows and vice-versa, but I think Mac can read Windows or something from the bootcamp drivers.
    Do you think this will work? Thanks

    Thanks for the feedback.
    Any ideas on what this software could be? I'm not sure what to look for.
    Would it be a once off program or something I need to run in the background to do it? Not too keen on bogging my computer down with programs to launch at startup or constantly running them.

  • Can you utilize Time Capsule to backup Windows 7 files simultaneously with Time Machine backing up your MacBook?

    Can you use the Time Capsule 2TB to backup files from a PC (using the standard backup program in Windows 7) while also using the TC 2TB to run Time Machine to backup a MacBook?

    Yes, it will work fine.. at least until the disk starts to fill up, then the expanding size of the sparsebundle can cause issues with the files from windows.. Pondini has made note of the issues..
    http://pondini.org/TM/TCQ3.html
    but I have to admit to doing precisely what you are talking about without problems.. as long as you maintain space.. plenty of space. Time Machine is eventually designed to use up all space on the TC.
    You cannot partition the TC drive without opening the TC and breaking warranty.. but you can create a disk image and put your windows backups inside it.. that might help to prevent issues.
