How to Scan HP all in One with Mac Pro

How to Scan

The reason for asking which OS X version you are using is that as of OS X 10.7, all scanning functions that previously required HP's proprietary software have been incorporated in OS X.
You can scan three ways:
Preview > Import from Scanner...
If the scanner is wireless or otherwise networked select "Include Networked Devices" (select this menu option once - it will appear to do nothing but the next time you select it, your scanner will appear).
Preview is in your Applications folder.
The Image Capture program in your Applications folder
System Preferences > Print & Scan > (select your HP) > Scan tab.
As much as I have tried, I was never able to initiate scanning from the scanner, not for any version of OS X, ever. You must initiate scanning from the Mac. HP's support forum is filled with questions regarding this problem. I never found a solution.

Can't scan (HP All in One) with my MacBook

My HP All in One scanner works fine with my iMac desktop, but I can't get it to work with my MacBook. The device scans (but says "Enter Fax Number") but won't transfer the scanned sheet to the desktop. Thanks for any suggestions!

Which model is?

8500A Plus Scan from all-in-one to Mac over wireless only possible?

I have spent most of the morning reading over the various Forum questions and answers regarding my issue but nothing seems to have addressed my issue directly, perhaps what I want to do is not possible. I'm trying to scan to my Mac (Yosemite 10.10.1) from my Officejet Pro 8500A Plus (referred hereafter as "Officejet") over my wireless network without have to connect to my USB.
Scenarios
A) When I have the Officejet connected to my Mac via USB, when I hit the touchpad Scan -> Computer it shows my Mac and works just fine, and it lists my Windows desktop as "Computer Not Listed".
B) When I have the Officejet connected to my Windows Desktop via USB, when I hit the touchpad Scan -> Computer it shows my Windows Desktop and works just fine, and it lists my Mac desktop as "Computer Not Listed".
C) When I have the Officejet connected to neither computer via USB, when I hit the touchpad Scan -> Computer it doesn't show either computer as an option to scan to and says "No Computer Detected" and has some instructions but they don't help me with my Mac, and for the Windows Desktop it tells me to "Activate Scan to Computer" but when I try to do that, my Windows desktop tells me "Communication cannot be established with the printer".
My main goal is to be able to scan to my Mac from my Officejet via my wireless network, with a secondary goal of doing the same with my Windows Desktop. But right now it only seems to work with one or the other if connected by USB. Is it possible to send a scan to my Mac from the Officejet over the wireless network without having to connect it to my compter via USB?
Your help is much appreciated!

Hello,
Thanks for posting your queries on forum,
Scenarios A, B and C holds good with the product functionality, when the printer is connected via USB cable it will detect only the computer to which its connected and not the other computer.
For you to scan to both the computer yes you can install the printer on wireless network, I dont have the printer here with me but will try my best.
Install all the three devices(Mac, Windows and Printer) to the same network
for Yosemite we dont have the full feature driver available so i would like you to perform Apple Software Update and install the HP Printer driver Version 3.0.
You can also download it from the standalone link " http://support.apple.com/kb/dl907 "
For Mac go to Printers and Scanners>> Click on the (+)symbol>>Add Printers or Scanners
An Add window opens up>> Select your printer(Bonjour multifunction) >> At the bottom under USE section select the HP 8500A printer driver>> Click Add.
It will download and install the required driver
on the Printers and Scanners window>>Select the Printer that we added >> Click on Options & Supplies>> Check if you have Utility Tab.
If yes click on the same>> Open Printer Utility and enable Scan to computer.
Now check on the front panel if it displays your Mac.
Install full feature software for windows and Activate scan to computer on your windows machine and it should display the both computer name on front panel of the printer.
I tried the above steps on my Envy Printer and it works.
Thanks

Running 4 screens as one with Mac Pro Late 2013

Hello there, got a Mac Pro late 2013 edition driving 4 60" 1080P screens in a 2x2 configuration. Trying to make those work as one 4k display. Was able to get it working to allow us to display a page across all 4 displays. But have not been able to get a video to display across all 4. Our current configuration has also been very finnicky and anytime we move the webpage around, it snaps the window to be full screen across the bottem two displays.
Anyone have any idea's as to how to make this work the way we are wanting to?

"Fullscreen" is a garbage feature ported from IOS and the iPhone, the land of tiny screens and one-at-a-time processing -- AVOID it at all costs.
This will work as long as you stretch a Window across multiple screens, and turn OFF all hints that you want multiple, independent screens.
This describes the new ways Mavericks tries to undercut the way it used to work:

prints from acrobat reader but only is a partial page duplicated 6 times. The display looks correct on the print page screen but the actual page printed is a partial duplicated 6 times. How do I correct this. I have a wireless connection .

Hello srken,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand when printing from Acrobat reader, it's printing the page partial and duplicated 6 times. I will do my best to assist you! Does this issue only happen from Adobe or from other program(s) on your computer?
How is this printer connected? Wireless or USB?
I would try resetting the printing system on your computer. Please follow this Apple document here to help you. I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great night!

How can I delete all the data in Mac pro and install the latest version of OSX Mavericks?

Hi,
I want to know why my mac become slow and so, I want to data and system and I want to install the latest version OS X Mcvericks. How can I do?
Thanks

Open the App Store app:
And, choose Mavericks:
Then download and run the installer. Tip: It would be a good idea to quit the installer before proceding with the install, so that you can copy it or move it to location outside of your Applications folder. That way the installer won't be deleted after you run it.
If you don't have a backup of your current Lion partition, the only way that you can do a clean install is to erase that partition, thus losing all of your data.

How to scan multiple pages in one file

I would like to know how to scan multiple pages into one file. There is no add button that comes up. I have a HP Officejet 8600 and a macbook pro. Please help, this would really help me out.

Open Preview and use its "Import From Scanner" option in the File menu. This will launch the scanning interface, which has some standard and basic scanning controls. If you choose "PDF" as the file format to save as, then you will see an option to scan all images to one file. When you do this, you will scan and edit them individually, but Preview will save them to the same file when saved.

How to reset Deskjet All in one printer 2645 to its default setting?

how to reset Deskjet All in one printer 2645 to its default setting?So I can change the paper size.

We have difficulty in using the printer for "photocopy" purposes. This is because our printer doesn't have "specific options" for paper sizes. When copying, the only option default in our printer was : A4 plain, A4 photo & 4 x 6.. Our question is, how can we have the "specific options" for paper sizes ( legal, letter, or A4 size )? Do we need to "restore to defaults" our printer? Can you give us a step-by-step instructions to deal with our problem? Thanks.

I have all my music on an external hard drive. I just transferred all my files to a new hard drive . How do I sync all my files with my itunes library without losing all my playlists etc and keep everything intact?

I have all my music on an external hard drive. I just transferred all my files to a new hard drive . How do I sync all my files with my itunes library without losing all my playlists etc and keep everything intact?

Launch iTunes with the Option key held down, click on Choose Library, and specify it. If the external drive doesn't contain the iTunes database files, create a new library there and import that music.
If the library contains any rented movies, they won't play on a different computer.

It may depend on the plugin that is loaded into your browser. However, right click on a PDF and select the Open With option and go to the default button to select Acrobat as the default. That might do it.

How to install Windows XP in parallel with Mac OS on a Macbook?

Can anyone tell me how to install Windows XP in parallel with Mac OS on a Macbook?
If I divide the hard drive into 2 patritions and install Win XP & Mac OS on each patrition, is it ok?

I don't think he meant "Parallels", I think he just meant "parallel", with a little 'p'.
There are three options for running Windows software on an Intel-based Mac:
Virtualization: you can install software such as Parallels or VMWare (along with a licensed copy of Windows) which will emulate the environment necessary to run Windows software. Performance is significantly degraded, but you can work with both Windows and Mac software simultaneously.
Dual boot: You can use Apple's Bootcamp to partition your drive and create a CD of Windows drivers for your devices, so that you can then install Windows on one partition of your drive. Your Windows software will run just as it does on any other Windows PC, but you have to reboot to switch between Windows and OS X.
Crossover: Crossover is a product that allows you to run Windows programs in OS X without installing Windows. Not all Windows software will work with Crossover though.
