How to Use Remote Printer's FAX and Scanner on Win 7

HP LaserJet 3050 hosted by an XP computer. I've been able to install it for printing from a Win 7 machine but I can't find a way to install its fax or scanner functions. I tried using the printer driver to print to the fax and it corrupted the XP's spool program requiring an entire C:\ drive restore from backup!
I have the HP 64 bit driver for the printer, and I can see in the list of .inf files one that seems to be for fax, but I can't make it install.

Hello colinobj,
I have looked at the link that you have provided that gives the steps to resolve the installation issue. 
Just so you are aware, this is the solution to the issue at hand.  Seeing that XP is on its way of being not supported, this is the best solution that Bob_Headrick has provided.
Thank you.

  • HP Officejet 4215 all-in-one printer, copier, fax and scanner

    Before I installed Leopard, I had various options in my print menu available to me. For example, I could print a document or webpage in black and white (to save ink) that was originally in color. After installing Leopard, those printer options do not exist anymore. I have to print everything that has color in color. Some of the other options are missing too. I went on the HP website to see if I could upgrade to a new driver but there was none listed. Also the Scanner feature won't work anymore now that Leopard is on my system. Now they did mention that on their website saying I would have to go buy a stand alone scanner now if I wanted to scan anything as a result to having something to do with Leopard!
    I was told that there were printer drivers on the Leopard install disc. I installed them and haven't notice any differences.

    HP have [this pdf document|http://h41140.www4.hp.com/macconnect/pdf/Mac_OS_launchspecial.pdf] available online entitled "We're Ready for Leopard". This document specifically mentions (among others) the OfficeJet 4215 and gives helpful info on moving your HP device from 10.4 to 10.5. Does this help you?

  • How to use remote desktop client in mountain lion

    How to use remote desktop client in mountain lion.
    I want to connect my other system(ubuntu) using mac remote desktop client, But i could not locate remote desktop client in moutain lion.

    In Ubuntu 12.xx use Dash to find "Desktop Sharing" and set the preferences, including requiring a password.
    Then in Ubu use System Settings > Network to determine your Ubu machine's IP address, such as 192.168.1.13.
    On the Mountain Lion Mac do Finder > Go > Connect to Server   and enter:  vnc://192.168.1.13  or whatever your IP is.  Enter the password that you used in the Ubu Desktop Sharing setup, when asked.
    On the Ubu machine answer the question that pops up asking for permission to connect.  Your Ubu screen will now show up on the Mac, and you can remote control it.   Here I am running "Octave" (a math program) on the Ubu machine, remotely.
    Works great!  BTW, you can do this from an iPad too, using a VNC client such as Mocha VNC Lite.  You can even run both remotes simultaneously.
    Good luck.

    Who has figured out how to use a print server with LR 2.1?

  • How to use ssd as boot drive and hdd as storage on a macbook pro 13

    Does anyone know how to use SSD as boot drive and have HDD in optical bay as storage on a Macbook pro 13. I mean in that both drives work as one . by formatting using mac software . I would like to run all programs and OS but would love to have my downloads and useless data on run on my 1tb 5400rpm hdd without me have to manual send it there..

    Does anyone know how to use SSD as boot drive and have HDD in optical bay as storage on a Macbook pro 13. I mean in that both drives work as one
    Each drive mounts as a separate volume. There is no convenient way to make them look like one contiguous volume.*
    Franky, with an hdd and a ssd I would recommend you put your home dir on the hdd and leave the ssd for the OS and your key applications.  It's relatively easy to do and I think better than moving only portions of your stuff.

    * There are ways to to make musltiple volumes appear as one large drive but I think it is beyond the scope of this discussion and not appropriate to this configuration.

    Thanks In advance
    spiya

    Hi Spria,
    I'm very sorry for the mix-up, I thought Allen was going to answer you back with the particulars that we found out. Check out the attached Word document and the below tidbits:
    The built-in DIAdem ODBC functions {SQL_...()} can only call stored functions, which return a scaler result {found then in SQL_Result(1,1)}. The syntax for this with an ORACLE db is
    "select function(parameters) from package"
    ...where package defaults to "dual" if you don't use your own package.
    There might be exceptions to that though, and the syntax will be different for other databases. Note that stored ORACLE procedures can NOT be called from the ODBC functions, instead you must use either ADO function calls in the DIA
    dem VBScript or the OO4O COM wrapper that ORACLE provides (this is described in further detail in the below Word document).
    Hope this helps,

  • How to use buttons in hcm process and forms?

    Hi Experts,
    I want to know how to use buttons in HCM process and form.
    And when i click on the button it was validating all the fields and it was throwing an error ( complete SACHP fields) i am not using this filed in any where of my form.
    So, please help in getting out of this error. And help me with some document, which method will  trigger once we click on the button.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Rocky

    You do not need to add this field to your list. In the view V_T588MFPROPS (SAP delivered), this field is set as mandatory. In configuration, you must maintain the view V_T588MFPROPC (Customer area) and make sure the field is not set to mandatory. This will override the SAP delivered setting and the error message will be not be displayed.

                 copyInto.setTel(tel);
                 copyInto.setEmail(email);
    }How can I correct the wrong part?
    I don't understand how to use super in equals() method and makeCopy() method.

    Try something like this ...
    public boolean equals(Object other) {
      if (other==null || !(other instanceof Person)) return false;
      Person that = (Person) other;
      return getTitle().equals(that.getTitle())
          && getName().equals(that.getName())
          && getAddress().equals(that.getAddress())
          && getTel().equals(that.getTel())
          && getEmail().equals(that.getEmail())
    Notes:
    * This overrides Object's public boolean equals(Object other), which is (probably) what you meant.
    * You don't need to call "super.getWhatever" explicitly... just call "getWhatever" and let java workout where it's defined... this is better because if you then override getTitle() for example you don't need to change your equals method (which you would otherwise probably forget to do, which would probably have some interesting side effects.
    Cheers. Keith.

  • Fax and Scanner on rds

    I have a RDS Farm on windows 2012 servers. I want to use fax and scanner application. How can I Install it.

    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Are you using RemoteFX USB direction for your RDS server?
    We can use USB redirection with or without RemoteFX, To enable administrators to configure RemoteFX USB Redirection, in Windows 7 SP1 we introduced a new custom RDP property: usbdevicestoredirect. In Windows Server 2012 this property can be added to any session
    collection or virtual desktop collection to allow users to access USB devices when connecting to the published resources.
    Set-RDVirtualDesktopCollectionConfiguration –CollectionName YourCollectionName –CustomRdpProperty "usbdevicestoredirect:s:{6bdd1fc6-810f-11d0-bec7-08002be2092f }"

  • How to use both a PowerMac G5 and a remote PowerBook G4?

    I just finished installing my new 2.3DC G5 and migrating my info from my Powerbook. I also set up a wireless network with Airport Express. Everything has been running smoothly and without any problems. So far I am extremely pleased with my new system. I have all my emails, files and everything on the new G5, and I am working from this machine.
    I travel quite a bit, and plan to take my powerbook with me and do not want to have duplicate files on both systems... What is the best way to organize my information? Is there a way to access my G5 from a remote Powerbook? including emails? Remote desktop? File Sharing?
    Is it a big issue that the Powerbook is using Panther and the G5 Tiger? Could it be possible to install Tiger from the G5 dvd on the Powerbook?
    Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi Francisco
    You could subscribe to .mac and use their sync service. You have up to 1 gig of online storage space, and could sync files between the two machines, including address books, browser files, personal files. More info at http://www.mac.com. I'm not sure if this works with Panther as well as Tiger, but I would assume it would.
    Note you will not be able to install Tiger on the Powerbook with your G5 DVD - not only is this against the licensing agreement, the DVD is most likely keyed to the type of platform it was provided with (i.e. the PMG5)
    With regards to the emails, you can keep these syncd between the two machines without .mac - just set up your mail retrieval settings so that a copy of the mail remains on the server, and is only deleted once the mail is deleted locally from your machine.
    Another way would be to keep your most important files on a USB memory stick, and put it in which ever machine you want.
    You can of course also set up file sharing or use remote desktop, however this would mean leaving the G5 turned on when you go travelling, and you would be reliant on Internet access in order to use it.
