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!

  • Copy to stickies does not work anymore

    Hello,
    As the subject says, somehow I mangled my settings so copy to stickies does not work anymore, pressing shift-option-Y. I have no idea what has changed, restoring the keyboard shortcuts to their default didn't help. Does anyone have a suggestion or a solution?
    Kind regards,

    You can open the firefox instead of the safari. It works. However, they should solve this problem. Another bug, after saving the document, don't expect to have the figures and tables in the same place when you reopen it.  THIS WAS THE WORST SOFTWARE VERSION EVER! I am totally upset. It is worst than powerpoint now.

  • Epson Workforce 325 scanner app will not work.

    Recently downloaded Maverick X and now my Epson Workforce 325 scanner app will not work. I have checked for updates through Epson and they say its an Apple problem, but there is none available through Apple. 
    Do I have to go back to the old Mountain Lion 10.8.5 v software?

    You will have no alternative but to wait for Epson to update their drivers to be compatible w/Mavarick.  Why not call them (tech support) or send them an email? 

  • My Time Capsule expired and no longer works. My printer (a HP) will now not work as it still wishes to connect through the Time Capsule. It will not allow itself be recognised through a USB connection to my Mac. Anyone got any ideas?

    My Time Capsule expired and no longer works. My printer (a HP) will now not work as it still wishes to connect through the Time Capsule. It will not allow itself be recognised through a USB connection to my Mac. Anyone got any ideas?

    You will need to install the printer on your Mac
    Open System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
    Open Print & Fax
    Click the + (plus) button at the bottom of the printer list
    Wait for your printer to appear in the next box, then click it to highlight it
    Click Add at the lower right
    Be sure to select the correct printer when you try to print as you will see your printer listed twice. Good idea to make the printer now installed on your Mac the default printer so you do not have to choose which printer to use each time you want to print.
    You can also go into Print & Fax, select the printer associated with the Time Capsule and click the - (minus) button if you want to delete that location.

  • Print icon on toolbar does not work

    Recently bought new computer running W7
    Use acrobat to print postage labels on royal mail site
    Have latest version of acrobat and when screen comes up showing label to be printed the 'floating' toobar appears but clicking on print icon has no effect
    I am forced to used 'CTRL P' and then 'enter'
    Occasionaly CTRL P gives me another toolbar at the top of the window which also has a print icon, this does nothing either
    Can anyone suggest what is going wrong, should I go back to an earlier acrobat that worked fine on my old XP PC ?
    Thanks
    Graham

    Thank you
    Yes you are correct using a PDF in browser to print post labels.
    Running Windows 7, Internet explorer 9, Acrobat Reader Version 10.0
    CTRL P brings up dialog box OK and I can print from there.
    Cannot comment if problem happens outside of browser as it is home
    computer and do not have need to view PDF's offline but will find thsi
    out if important.

  • HT3669 I have an Epsom 1250 photo scanner that will not work with my new iMac.  I get an error report indicating 'scanner ot available' and the indicator light on the scanner goes to red.

    When I try to use the scanner I get error message 'scanner not available' and the scanner indicator goes red .  I have contacted Epsom who advised me to run System update on my Mac several times which I havedone to no avail.  The scanner is in working order as it works satifactorily with my 'Windows' laptop.  The scanner is listed as being included in the driver updates but It would appear that the driver on my iMac supplied  in any update is not suitable.
    I am currently running OSX 10.8.4
    What steps should I now persue to be able to use the scanner?
    Alan.

    Howdy Susiesdad,
    I would suggest the troubleshooting steps from this article named Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3147
    Don't let the name throw you off, the troubleshooting is relevant for scanners as well.
    Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
    Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
    Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
    Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
    Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
    Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again.  Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Brother 9320cw Scanner Function Does Not Work

    Hello All,
    I am at my wits end and hope that someone out there may be able to assist me.  I recently purchased the HP Touchsmart 520 and have been unable to get the scanner function on my Brother MFC 9320cw to work (the printer works fine). 
    I was on with Brother support and we did the following: 
    1) Uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers - from the download at Brother
    2) Stopped and restarted the WIAAC service
    3) Tried to use the plug and play capability to let Windows find the drivers - windows came back with an 'unknown device' message.
    4) Used the machine with different O/S - windows 7 starter - and it worked just fine.  It also worked fine with my old XP PC.
    Brother at that point indicated that it was an issue with the system not recognizing the driver for the scanner and said it was an HP problem.  HP begs to differ and indicated that they would try to solve my problem for $60.  Not going to happen. 
    So I come to this fine group of people, hat in hand, in the hope that someone can help me resolve the problem. 
    Thanks for help,
    Marnia

    Hello Mariad:
               Hp is right not their problem period. Brothers Co. problem yes they are the ones who should be helping you. Here is a link that is the drivers For Windows 7 64bit. computer. http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/us/us/en/dlf/download_index.html?reg=us&c=us&lang=en...
    Not always the HP wizard can find drivers. I had to manually find and down load my Blue Tooth devie and Samsung  Modus 3500 head set drivers.
         The reason it work for your other computers because the software is for 32 bit computers. Please contact Brother Co. ask them to send you Windows 7 64bit. insulation disks if for some unkown reason this dowload fails. HP company does it for free thats with HP Pinters though.
        One more company just passing the buck failing to help customers. Nice printer you have I hope it works.

  • Copy and paste buffers not working correctly in iOS 8.1m

    Both iPads2's in my family arsenal are exhibiting what I believe to be a bug in the iOS8.1 (perhaps corrected by 8.1.1?), in the cut/copy & paste buffer stack.
    When invoking the operation to copy and paste data from one application to another, the paste action consistently selects the previous (e.g., stack level 2 rather than 1 or Top) data as what is to be pasted.
    In other words, if you have used the copy and paste routine twice, the second pasting will supply one with the paste data from the first operation, rather than the desired data from the second copy and paste operation.
    Copy and paste appears to work correctly from within a single application, but consistently fails when copying data from one application to another.
    Does anyone know of a work-around for this bug? Is it a bug that others have identified? Is there a new selection filter menu option for copy and paste operations, and what method is used to invoke the menu?
    I hope this is addressed soon, as I use Cut/Copy & Paste operations extensively (I've already had Carpal Tunnel Release surgery once and don't relish a repeat performance, no matter how successful the first was in correcting the damage).
    Any clues as to what's going on here?
    thanks in advance,
    labernache

    All you can do is simply see if iOS 8.1.1 helps you with this. With some people it has, and others it has not. I would also recommend doing a clean install of your system, too.
    Follow this procedure for a Troubleshooting Methodology ... basically reset to factory default condition -BUT- be sure to do the following methodically and also to follow the part with Apple Support!
    First you want to make sure you have several backups of your data and done with a couple of "different" sources. Be sure to understand what data is backed up and what is NOT on iCloud Backup and iTunes Backup. Use a variety of methods for backup ... you might check into Dropbox, in addition to your Apple options.
    Then turn off your desktop anti-virus software when using iTunes for this reset to factory default. After you do that reset, then leave your iPad in its factory default state and see how it operates then. If you encounter any problems in that factory default state, then take it to Apple Support, and let them know that you have just reset it to that state with iTunes and have not put any of your data back on and it is operating in this fashion (whatever the problem is) in that pristine state. Make sure you keep that trouble ticket number, because if it has to be escalated through Apple Support, you're going to find all communications tied in with that number. If the lower level help isn't able to help you, then escalate it to a higher level to examine the problem. Keep at it with that trouble ticket number until Apple Support arrives at a solution to that problem. Be methodical and keep at it.
    On the other hand, if everything is okay with the factory default condition, then restore your backup. Some people have discovered that the problem resides in the apps or something in the restored backup. If that's the case, then it's going to be trying and difficult to find out which developer's app is causing you the problem. And ... it's true ... that a developer not following Apple's instructions and guidelines for his app can CAUSE YOU TROUBLE. This kind of thing does happen from developers, especially when a new system upgrade comes out, because some developers ignore what Apple tells them about changes coming, and what they do BREAKS SOMETHING.
    This is a troubleshooting methodology that you are going through. See it through to the end.

  • Copy and Paste does not work in filter statement of table data

    I am using SQL Developer 3.0.04. I can not copy nor paste in the filter criteria when watching or editing table data. Is it a bug or do I have to change some settings?

    Hi Sven,
    I did a bit more research and now I hope we will be talking about the same thing. Bear with me and let me clarify. In terms of my prior comment about the process necessary to copy a value from a data cell into the clipboard, I was totally off-base. Once the focus is on a data cell, all one need do is Edit menu|Copy or ctrl-c. I have no idea why I had trouble with that yesterday.
    Anyway, getting back to what's relevant with regard to your issue:
    1) If something is in the clipboard, then both Edit menu|Paste and ctrl-v work for a data cell target.
    2) If something is in the clipboard, then Edit menu|Paste fails for a data tab filter target.
    3) If something is in the clipboard, then ctrl-v works for a data tab filter target.
    So obviously conditions exist where pasting to the data tab filter can work. But here is a scenario where I found a problem similar to what you describe:
    1) For the EMP table in SCOTT, display all employees in the data tab.
    2) Apply a filter. For example, filter on JOB='SALESMAN'. Now 4 salesman, all in dept 30, are displayed.
    3) Next you decide to view only employees in dept 30.
    4) Copy the value 30 from the DEPTNO column. Carelessly put the focus on ENAME column in one of the data tab rows.
    5) Next focus on data tab filter to blank out JOB='SALESMAN' predicate. Drop down to select DEPTNO. Append an = sign.
    6) Finally Edit menu|Paste. Instead of seeing DEPTNO=30 in the filter, we see...
    7) The filter contains nothing and is disabled (greyed out).
    8) The ENAME column of the prior focus now contains the value 30 rather than the a salesman's name.
    Your case may be different/more complex, but at least this simple case demonstrates in a repeatable fashion what I noticed but didn't describe very well yesterday. I have logged the following internal bug:
    Bug 12753266 - EDIT MENU PASTE INTO DATA TAB FILTER DOES NOT WORK AND MAY DISABLE THE FILTER
    Using the rollback button, blanking out any filter value and hitting enter displays all original employee rows.

    Another thought is to check System Preferences/CD's & DVD'S, and check your selection nuder "When you insert a blank CD" (or DVD).
    Running Disk Utility from the install disk, and repairing permissions is also another possible fix.

  • Local client copy profile SAP_CUSV: Configuration not working

    Dear Experts,
    My configuration client is 350 and my new client is 100 in same DEV system. Client 100 is copied from client 000 with profile SAP_ALL. Then I created a local copy from 350 using profile SAP_CUSV into same client 100. After that I am facing issues under HCM module. All the HCM configuration that works well in 350 does not work in client 100 even the standard header configuration of PA30 does not work. All the customizing entries are however present in HCM configuration tables but system seems not to read anything from HCM configuration. Apart from screen headers, the configuration done by consultant also has conflicts and system shows an error to maintain entries in tables which are already maintained and visible in configuration tables in 100. An example of error in which system gives error of maintaining Payscale Type and Payscale Area in table T510 is attached where as the entries are maintained in given table.

  • [SOLVED] Epson flatbed scanner detected but not working

    I have an Epson V330 scanner which used to work with iscan and iscan-data from AUR. Now the scanner is detected correctly by lsusb, sane-find-scanner, and scanimage -L, but if I run
         scanimage > image/pnm
    I get
         sane_start: Invalid argument
    xsane brings up the scanner but it gives the same error.
    I think the problem may be related to the fact that there is no /dev/scanner0 or anything similar, which I think there should be. I've tried rebooting with the scanner switched on but no result.
