Colors original and copy/scan don't match

I made a scan or copy of a diploma which has different light-green colors.
The duplicate that came out has no greens but mainly purple and pink stripes all over.
What is the problem and how can it be fixed?
Rick

Hello Voetenvos,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with the colours on the print outs.
Please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
I have also located a document that deals with Fixing Print Quality Problems for the HP Officejet Pro 8600 e-All-in-One Printer Series.
Please feel free to write me back with any other questions or concerns.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.

  • My itunes account shuts down for no reason.  It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and itunes.  I have already  reinstalled itunes and did a syste restore on my computer, firewall checked and virus scan done.  Ideas??

    My itunes account on windows xp shuts down for no reason.  If even try to delete something from my library it shuts down.   It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and I can't connect to the store.  I have already  reinstalled itunes and did a system restore on my computer, firewall has been checked, itunes is ok on firewall and virus scan done.  Ideas??

    Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

  • From and/or subject don't match msg body

    Hello all. Two weeks ago I posted this problem under a different head, but got no replies, so let me try again as it is messing up maybe 5% of my email.
    Every morning I collect email--from 40 to 70 messages, many forwarded from Gmail--and message filtering usually works efficiently to transfer from Inbox to folders. But somewhere along the line, 1 to 3 emails get muddled together: the from and/or subject don't match the text, and sometimes the displayed text includes the Msg Source, including text, from some other, unrelated email.
    I've been using FF and TB for more than 10 years now, and believe this kind of email muddling dates only to the last couple months. I use the latest Thunderbird under Windows 7 on a Dell desktop. I have 4 hopefully innocent addons. Of course I can send screenshots and forward the message source for analysis.
    Hoping this time to attract attention to the problem! Thanks!

    This is an indication of file corruption. Lack of maintenance on your email folders is the usual cause of this.
    You can try to repair the file tables and see if that helps. Be prepared to lose messages if the corruption is too bad.
    Right click the problem folder. Select Properties and then Repair Folder.
    Then read this article about best practices to help prevent this in the future.

  • 'Info' file count varies between original and copied folders

    Unlike Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion 'Info' counts hidden files in folders (usually .DS files).  However copied folders, often to different locations, computers, etc, do not count to the same total as the original folder.  How can I stop 'Info' counting hidden files in a folder, so that I can check acturately folder contents between original and copied folders.  I do not want to have to open each folder and check the count at the bottom of the window, this is very time consuming when dealing with many folders
    I hope there is an easy answer ??

    You can do this simply in Terminal with the command
    ls [directory] wc -l
    This will only count the files and folders at the top level (i.e., not the contents of folders within it) and it won't count hidden files.
    Examples:
    if you want to count how many files are in your home user folder
    ls -1 ~/ | wc -l
    If you want to count how many files are in your desktop folder
    ls -1 ~/Desktop | wc -l
    If you want to count how many files are in a folder called 'Temp' on your Desktop:
    ls -1 ~/Desktop/Temp | wc -l
    If you want to count how many files are in your Trash:
    ls -1 ~/.Trash | wc -l
    If you want more sophisticated counts, such as subdirectories, type
    man ls
    into Terminal to read the manual on the various options you can use with the 'ls' command.

  • I want to access my library on my macbook pro and copy work done away from home from my imac how do I do this?

    I want to access my library on my macbook pro and copy work done away from home to Aperture on my imac how do I do this?

    Are you working on images on both machines?
    If you want to round-trip images, you can export a project as a library from your iMac, copy that to your MacBook Pro, and then edit the images there.  When you're done, copy that library back to the iMac and import it to your iMac.  The iMac should recognize the changes you've made and update its images.
    Read the Aperture help file, which will guide you to the Aperture manual.  It can walk you through this.  You have to be careful to do it correctly, but I've done this a few times and it works quite well.

  • Colors of imported illustrator files don't match indesign colors

    I'll be honest: I'm likely missing something really basic. This is really frustrating, though.
    The simple version: when I drag an Illustrator file into my InDesign document, its colors don't match the colors of shapes in the InDesign document drawn with the same color values.
    The long version:
    I'm working on a resume document. I've created a logo in Illustrator - the document is in CMYK color mode and uses SWOP v2 color space. I've dragged the file into InDesign, where I have some basic geometric shapes that intersect the logo. The InDesign document is also set to CMYK and is using the SWOP v2 color space. I've noticed, however, that the colors of my logo (which, again, was imported from Illustrator) do not match the colors of shapes drawn natively in InDesign even when their hexadecimal color values are identical. To further this point. I created a shape in InDesign with color #86c8cf. I then copied the value #86c8cf into Illustrator and drew a shape using that color. I imported that Illustrator shape into InDesign and placed the Illustrator Shape and the native InDesign shapes side by side. I even exported to PDF and pulled it up in preview to proof it. The colors, while very similar, are NOT the same color.
    Am I missing something really obvious? Or are these two programs not at all working together like they're always said to do so well?

    Dunno why. Which versions of ID/AI? Not that it should matter, I get the same results with CS6 and CC2014.
    One square in ID is native, the other from a placed AI file--though drag and drop are the same results.
    Acrobat, hovering over one square...
    And over the other square...
    I used your hex values in Illy, used Illy's CMYK values in ID.

  • Automator: Apply Color Label and Copy to Folder

    I'm trying my hand at Automator, and I need help with one of my workflows (⇪). Basically, it's a service (accessible via right-click) that will apply a color label on an image file, and then copy that image file to a corresponding folder with the same color label. My current version works fine, except for the fact that I had to create seven versions to accommodate all seven colors.
    Is there any way to turn the color into a variable? I want the workflow to prompt me for a color, and then use that choice to run a search for the appropriate folder. I'd rather not hard code the color choice into separate services that all do the same thing.
    Also, the service currently assumes that it will run fast enough before I can deselect the target file. I'm sure it's possible that the folder search could lag out while I select another file, and the service will ultimately copy the newly selected item, rather than the initial target. Is there a way to ensure the service acts on whatever was selected when it was first triggered?
    I don't know AppleScript beyond copying-and-pasting other people's codes, so that limits my automation quite a bit. I don't know how to prompt for a label index choice and then feed the result into a find function. I also don't know how to record the file path of the selected item, and then feed that into the copy function at the end to ensure it doesn't copy the wrong file.

    Typically a list of items is passed to a workflow, so you will usually (depending on what you are doing with the items) need to step through the items in that list. If there is only one destination folder with the target label, you can just search for it, otherwise you will need to specify the destination in some other way.
    The following Service workflow example assumes that there is only one destination folder that has a given label color. It gets the label index of one of the input items and finds a folder with the same index at a specified base location (to limit the search range).
    1) Input items are automatically passed to an application or service, otherwise another action to get FInder Items can be used
    2) *Label Finder Items* (show the action when the workflow runs)
    3) *Run AppleScript* (paste the following script)
    <pre style="

  • Songs and album covers don't match up?

    On my 4s, when I enabled Icloud and downloaded my music library something got out of sync. Now, most songs don't match up to the album cover etc. displayed on my screen. I have tried deleting and downloading again and the problem remains. Any suggestions?

    Album cover images depend on whether you downloaded the album/song off the pre-installed iTunes store on the iPod or you downloaded an mp3 from your computer into iTunes then synced it to the device, the only solution in this case without consulting apple help directly would be to try purchasing a song or album from the on-device iTunes store and seeing if you get a cover image then, otherwise I'd seek help from apple themselves as it may be a software issue and you could possibly get your device looked at or replaced under your 1 year warrantee. That is if your still covered.
    hope this helps, olly.

  • Quicktime mpeg-2 and quicktime versions don't match

    I bought quicktime pro and the mpeg-2 add on but the program tells me the versions are not compatible even though they both say the same version identification.
    Does anyone know why it tells me the versions are different when they aren't ?

    sorry for not putting enough info.
    i just bought the quicktime mpeg-2 installer and quicktime pro upgrade for quicktime 7 yesterday(3-15-2009). i installed the pro upgrade and the mpeg-2 installer.
    i checked both quicktime and the mpeg-2 installer to see what versions they are. they both say version 7.60.92.0, yet i keep recieve this message:
    "QuickTime MPEG2 failed to load because the versions of QuickTime and QuickTime MPEG2 do not match."
    But they match exactly. I am stumped. i even uninstalled and reinstalled both of them but still the same message.

  • SIP and SMTP domains don't match

    Hi,
    We’ve a situation where SIP, SMTP and AD domain are different than each other and I am sure this will present integration issues at the least...
    Speaking from LYNC 2013 and exchange 2010/2013 integration standpoint, could someone please point out to integration process under below circumstances where
    SIP domain         uc.contoso.com
    SMTP domain      contoso.com
    AD domain          contoso.net
    Also, how would exactly the logon will occur in this situation?
    I'd appreciate if you could point me to relevant document please.
    Regards, Pushkal MishrA, This posting is provided “AS IS” with no warranties and confers no rights. I request you to test the solution in lab and post successful outcome you should try this on production.

    Hi Pushkal Mishra,
    It’s recommend to use the same SIP and SMTP address.
    But if they are not the same, they will still work properly if you take some additional work.
    I’m assuming that you have published the correct SAN certificate that has every expected SAN name for each domain, then you have to create an additional SRV record for uc.contoso.com.
    _autodiscover._tcp.uc.contoso.com           
    mail.contoso.com        443
    In general, Lync will look at your primary SMTP address and attempt to use it to find the EWS URL via Autodiscover after signing in. But if the SIP and SMTP address does not match, you will receive
    a security prompt “Lync cannot verify that the server is trusted for your sign-in address”.
    To avoid the issue, the best solution in my opinion is to use SRV records for Autodiscover to redirect Lync to the mail.contoso.com A record. (Delete the Autodiscover A record)
    Best regards,
    Eric

  • Safari5.1.x Cut/Paste and Copy/Paste don't work

    Please reconsider the severity of this bug!
    It may be related to something more fundamental in the Safari cut-n-paste functionality. It seems that Safari ALWAYS pastes an instance of the parent macro when copying content wrapped in a macro. The same behaviour is seen when copying and pasting text wrapped in the "Numbered headings" macro.
    I believe the problem is mainly related to the cut and copy function rather than the paste function, since the instance of the parent element is also pasted when attempting to place the cut content outside the parent element. This effectively means that there is no way to move content out of a macro, since deleting the wrapper macro will also delete the contents.
    All in all this makes Safari 5.1.x pretty much useless as a client to Confluence, since basic editing will have to involve pasting to and recutting from some external program to perform the most basic of editing operations. In a corporate environment users may not be allowed to install (or use) an alternative browser.

    I have this problem using Safari 5.1.7 on OS 10.6.8. I believe the issue exist with much before versions as well. Please someone reconstruct the issue and confirm it. Thanks. this is making Safari useless.

  • Volume size and Capacity size Don't match

    Hello,
    I have a fileshare running Windows 2008 R2 that has a Dynamic Disk that is 1670.78 GB formatted NTFS.  The problem is if I look at the properties of the volume it says that the capacity is 987 GB.  I'm not sure how to get the capacity up to the
    full size of the volume.
    The histry is we had a 2003 x64 file share that started life as a scratch place to store files so was RAID 0, according to the original specs for the project that was what they wanted.  After time passed the share became permenant storage and loosing
    it was actually a problem.  At that point I wanted to make it RAID 5.  However I also was hoping to keep the Shadow Copies to enable them to find previous versions of files so I ended up creating an iSCSI target and mirroring them through windows,
    which made a full backup including the copies.  I then broke the mirror rebuilt the RAID and then re-mirrored to the new volume.  However becuase of going from RAID 0 to 5 I lost some space so had to resize the volume.  I used a 2008 R2 machine
    to shring the volume and then raised the capacity back up to the full size.  However the space available never actually grew.
    At that point I figured the problem was from the machine still running 2003 R2 and having been touched by a 2008 R2 machine.  So I scheduled an upgrade and the server is now running 2008 R2, however I am still missing 600GB.
    I can't expand the Volume at this point since there is no free space on the disk, and if I try to shrink the volume I get the option of how much to shrink, then after saying ok I get the error: "The parameter is incorrect."   When I look in the
    Application Log I see an error saying the volume wasn't defragmented because an error was encountered. "The parameter is incorrect. (0x80070057)"
    Please let me know any suggestions or if there is any additional information that would be helpful.
    Thank you,
    Eric

  • Photo names and thumb names don't match

    Apologies if this issue exists and I haven't spotted it. I have looked. Working on iPhoto 5.0 on a G3 iBook, photos held on an external 60gb LaCie drive.
    My basic issue is that the names of my photos and the names of thumbs do not always match. The thumb of the same no. displays a different photo. And the thumb in the folder of a photo is often the same image but has a different no. E.g. IMG-0008.jpg has a thumb called 1485.jpg with a different date, but the image is the same.
    My initial question is one of fixing. Can I somehow get rid of all these thumbs and force iPhoto into recreating them? It looks to me from reading the forum that this would be safe and possible via rebuild, but given the mess I'm in I thought I'd like to check first!
    Can I also delete folders of Originals (knowing the risk that changes are then permanent)? Can I do this anywhere other than at iPhoto library folder level, which appears to be a bad way to stuff?
    There's a history to all this of course, which I'll go into if there's anyone who thinks they may be able to explain why it's happened. Otherwise fixing it would at least be a good first step as I've no idea if it's likely to be causing other problems in the software performance!
    Thanks, ever hopeful!

    Oh sorry, that is a screenshot for iPhoto 6. For iPhoto 5 the Data folders are in each date folder.
    For you then, just delete the three files, then do your rebuild.
    If the thumbnails and photos are still not correct after the rebuild you can create a new library and import the photos from the old. When you do this you are just importing the photo files and new thumbnails will be created.
    Here are the directions:
    Close iPhoto
    Rename your messed up iPhoto Library to "iPhoto Library_old"
    Drag this library to your desktop
    Hold down the Option key and launch iPhoto
    This is the window you will get
    Create a new library or choose a library to open
    Choose to create a new library
    Once this new empty library is open it is time to import the images from your old library
    Go to File>add to library
    Navigate to the old library on your desktop and highlight it in the window, then click the "import" button.
    iPhoto will start importing the images from your old library
    This is what to expect:
    Your images will be imported in nice dated rolls. (make sure your view is set to sort by rolls to see it) There are a couple of caveats to this. You will get rolls named "Originals" These rolls will contain your video clips and your original images that you had edited. If you had RAW files they would be in those rolls too (I don't do RAW, so I don't know for sure) Delete what you don't want from those rolls. You will also get the jpeg pointer files to your video clips imported. They will just be jpegs and will not point to the video clips anymore as iPhoto made new ones when the clips were imported again. You can delete those. they should be in a roll right next to the newly imported video clips so they are not hard to find. The thumbnail files don't get imported as iPhoto makes new ones when the images are imported.
    Once all you images have been imported, check through the library and make sure everything looks ok.
    You can now start making your Albums, and do your keywords or any other organizational steps.
    You can also delete the old library on the desktop.
    It is also a good time to backup this new library to CD/DVD by burning the iPhoto LIbrary folder in the Finder, or copying the iPhoto Library folder to an external drive formatted for Macs, or copying the iPhoto LIbrary folder to an iPod.
    Good luck!

  • Final Cut Express HD and Animoto resolutions don't match

    I imported a 720p video into Final Cut Express HD from Animoto.com (created online with Animoto and downloaded the MP4).
    I added a song and a couple of bookend credits then exported to QuickTime Movie. The resolution of the FC export is significantly lower than the original MP4. Significantly lower. I've tried almost all the export settings in the "QuickTime Conversion" export, but nothing comes close to the resolution of the imported MP4.
    Can anyone see what I might be doing wrong?

    Have a read here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19146995#19146995
    Sounds like your Easy Setup and clips are scrambled to me resulting in degraded footage.
    BTW: MP4 should be transcoded to match an Easy Setup.
    Codecs used in FCE are editing codecs, MP4 is for delivery.

    Your username on your home folder is always taken from the short name. You can change the short name of your account by right clicking on the user within the accounts pane in System Preferences and selecting Advanced Options. However this is not a smart move. It can be a complicated and painstaking process moving all required aspects and settings to the new short named account.
