Hi @Della72
From your description, it sounds like your printer is working but the printed output has no black ink or is blank. If this is the case, please use the following document to troubleshoot the issue; Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages.
I hope this helps.

HP 4500 printer/copier/scanner - copier & scanner not working

I have an HP Envy 4500 printer/copier/scanner. When I attempt to copy or scan anything, the printer initially sounds like it is going to work, but the screen just reads "copying" and nothing happens. I then hit cancel and the screen reads "cancelling" and nothing happens. I have to turn off the printer and restart to print normally. How do I restore the copy & scanning functions???

Hi @bonniegirl
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I'm sorry to hear you've had issues using the scanner on your Envy 4500, but I will absolutely do my best to help out
I will suggest first that you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet to ensure the printer is getting enough power to function properly. Once that is done though, if you're still unable to copy I will suggest that you update the firmware on the printer, if an update is available. If your printer is connected to your wireless network, please follow this Getting the Latest Firmware and Printer Updates document to get the firmware updated. If you're connected to a computer via a USB cable, then please update via the following link: HP Envy 4500 series firmware update to improve printer performance.
If it doesn't allow you to update the firmware that usually indicates that everything is already up to date.
If the firmware also doesn't seem to change how the scanner functions, let me know and I will look into a reset for your Envy 4500.
Hope to hear back from you soon!

I am attempting to connect my Canon Pixma MG5220 printer/copier/scanner to my MacBook Pro OS 10.6.8. After loading software from Canon and attempting to print, I get the following message: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. What can I do to fix this?

I just purchased and installed a Canon Pixma MG5220 printer/copier/scanner to my PC desktop with Windows XP. It works fine. It has been successfully installed on my network and I am able to use it with my laptop running VISTA. However, I am trying to connect it to my MacBook Pro OS 10.6.8 and I am not having much luck. I can see it as one of the printer choices when attempting to print; however, I get the following message:
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
I have been searching for answers, but nothing seems to work yet. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks.

Let me understand:
- you have purchased named canon, which is conencted to your PC running windows xp
- downloaded driver for win xp, and canon works fine
- canon is connected to that PC via USB
- that Canon is also activated as network printer, by allowing print sharing in windows; how did you set that option?
- now, you are in Mac OS x 10.6.8, downloaded Canon driver for Mac OS X, installed it, detected printer on the network, printer was installed; was it detected as attached to that PC running win XP? or not?
or you set canon by being connected to your mac directly via USB?
Now, there are some questions you should answer as some details are missing, and your initial text is not clear. Can you print if Canon is connected directly to your mac? did you try that? if not, do it before answering.

SAP faxing from all-in-one (printer/copier/scanner/fax) device

Hi,
We have a all-in-one printer/copier/scanner/fax (Ricoh Aficio 3025) and would like to make use of it to send fax from SAP.
I know how to set it up as a printer. But how should I go about setting it up to send fax?
Can someone help?
Thanks in advance.
Edited by: Sisab Nimda on Jan 8, 2009 2:38 PM

You can't just set it up as a fax... you need a fax server in order to send faxes (I.E. Rightfax)... basically the way it works is that you create a node in SCOT for faxes and send the data to the fax server via SMTP and the fax server deliver the fax to your hardware.
Check the SMTP guide,

HP C4200 All-in-One Series Printer/Copier/Scanner

My All-in-One 4200 HP Printer, Copier, Fax machine continues to waste paper and prints alignment pages almost every time I print a document.
I believe you would agree that this feature needs to be turned off and is very annoying. Other than constantly pressing cancel, please tell me what I can do to stop this from happening?
Thank you
Dale Kozek

Hi blanche2,
I understand you are inquiring if you have the proper software CD for your printer. Yes you do. A printer much like a car has a series that contains a base model and a few others. By adding different features and options to the base model it will create a different model number under that original series. The base driver will be the same for all the printers, but each model will have certain extras. Also different store chains will be assigned a different model number in that series depending on the promotions that are offered at that particular chain.
I hope this helps, let me know.
Thank you,

Have a HP Photosmart Premium C310a printer, copier,scanner problem

Have a HP Photosmart Premium C310a printer, copier,scanner problem
When I try to scan it asks me for destination, PC or SD card, when you select PC it tells me to iniciate from the computer.
The printer was installed with the 3100 series drivers. i have no icons to inicate from the PC. I have downloaded an ran PS_AIO_07_C310_FSW_Full_Win_enu_140_246 which is supposed to be the correct software and drivers for this printer. When I process this application, there is no termination. It asks if I want to let it make changes to this computer, runs for a while and then disappers from active processes. Acts like nothing really terminated or even ran.
Printing and copying works perfect, only problem is with scanning. I have used the workaround of going to the printers IP address but this does not allow multipage scans.
i have windows 7 Home Preimum Service Pack 1 64bit operating system using Chrome as the browser. Printer is being used as wireless.

Hello keller123,

This is usually indicative of a defective print cartridge. Suspect the black is low in ink or defective. Please check all cartridges.

Deskjet 3054 not printing but scanner works

Hello!
I have a Deskjet 3054 per label on the printer, however, but the IP address says it's Deskjet 3050 All-in-One J610a. My computer is Mac 10.9.5. I've read through other posts and have updated all my software via Apple's Software Update.
The symptoms are as below:
- The scanner works (I can scan a page and view it on my computer)
- Printer report works (that's where I got the IP address)
- On Mac's Printer & Scanners, the printer is recognized and connected
- However, when I print a document, the queue shows up, shows the job is being processed. However, the printer does not move at all. I cannot hear the cartridge move. Then the queue shows that the job is done and the queue is empty.
Please help!
Thanks!

Double-click Disk Utility.
Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left (by default this is "Macintosh HD").
Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.

Deleting a paused print job in HP 2540 deskjet

I want to delete or cancel a print job I paused using wireless HP 2540 Deskjet all-in-one. I have been unable to get rid of it. I have tried:
1. pressing the X on the top of the printer.
2. Searching HP utility for a link to delete command.
3. Going to HP help center (when click on DeskJet 2540 the link is empty)
4. Unplugging the printer and plugging back in in a few minutes
When I go back in to create a new print job, a dialogue box appears saying a current job is paused and would I like to add a new job to the queue. The problem here is the job I am attempting to delete is about 120 pages that I no longer need to print.
I have a 13 inch MacBook Air with Yosemite 10.10.2. Any feedback will be appreciated.
Richard

A reset of the printing system will remove the unwanted print job. Note that this action will also remove all printers from the Printers & Scanners preference pane, but not the supporting drivers. So you will just need to add the printers again.

Canon MP460 printer, copier and scanner to iMAC but the scanner doesn't work. How do I get it to work?

I have a Canon MP460 connected to my iMAC however I am unable to scan. I can print perfectly and would like the scan capability to work. How do I get the scan to work?

It is impossible to assist you without knowing what version of OS X is installed on your computer. However if you are using OS X Lion 10.7.x or Snow Leopard 10.6.x please look at Printer and scanner software for Snow Leopard & Lion to see if your device is supported for scanning. If it is then try using Apple's Image Capture software, you will find that in the Applications folder.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE complete your profile. It's easy to do, just click Your Stuff in the upper right of this page, then click Profile and fill in the pertinent information.

Hp 2540 air print

Just got an iPad Air plus a 2540 deskjet because it supports Airprint. However.. the pad cannot see the printer. The PC prints wirelessly, the Mac prints to an IP address but no tablet printing. The support for Air print on the support site is non-existent. Not the HP of old... What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
Please check section "How to print in iOS" on the following link:

Scanning on a network copier/scanner

I can print to our Canon 5050 copier/scanner. But when I try to scan using Acrbat XI Pro the Canon is not a choice. It is on out network. Is there a way to scan from the canon using Acrobat XI Pro?

The requisite drivers that Acrobat needs are not available.
Many Canon network printer/scanner models have a built in create PDF feature.
Typically the Canon device can email the PDF to you (after you enter your email as required - see the user manual).
Or, the scanned image output file or created PDF can be placed in a designated, network accessed folder (again, see the user manual).
But, back to your question -- I'm saying "no" -- but, again, do a close read of the user manual.
Be well...

Print/Copy Options in Dreamweaver 8

I am a new user in Dreamweaver 8 and I want to print the Design content. I see that the only option available in Dreamweaver 8 is the Print code.
Also when you copy paste the design content in word, it pastes as text and does not paste as the design content.
Our website content is just simple tables for ISO.
Can anyone please share a way to print/copy the design content?
Thanks

DW is web authoring software for the creation of X/HTML/, PHP/JavaScript & CSS code.
MS Word is primarily a word processor/desktop publishing application with related print options.
Photoshop & Illustrator are graphics applications with many other print options.
I think what you want is a screenshot of your web page. Download the Screengrab Add-On for Firefox.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/screengrab/
Within Firefox, you can create a PNG or JPG snapshot of your entire web page or just selected portions of it.
Then open the image in your favorite graphics software to crop, resize, and print.
