HP C3180 - Can I SCAN with this All-In-One connected to base station?
I bought a HP C3180 all in one Printer/Scanner/Copier and I have it connected to my Airport Extreme base station.
My question is, is there any way to Scan with this via the USB connection to the Airport Base Station ? Or do I have to connect it directly to the Mac?
Thanks for any input
Happy 4th,
-Rob
Robbie:
You will have to connect the device directly to the computer to scan. Scanning is not supported when connected to the Airport.
I've heard several explanations as to why this is the case. Some say it is a poorly written driver by the printer manufacturers and others say it is a limitaion of the Airport. I'm not sure which is correct but bottom line is, it doesn't work.
Hope this helps.

Anyone had any luck scanning with hp all in one connected on airport express usb bonjour
Can someone tell me if apple will provide any support for scanning device included in hp all in one printers when connected on airport with USB bonjour network?
From what I have read so far, it would seem that the only way to get a network printer to work decently is to use it with an airport extreme base station with an ethernet cable. The usb "way" of the airport express doesn't seem to handle any fancy utility like ink level, test page or scanning.
Anyone have a solution other than that of buying an airport extreme base station ?
Sorry for my english, i'm from québec Canada (french canadien)
Thanks for any helpCan someone tell me if apple will provide any support for scanning device included in hp all in one printers when connected on airport with USB bonjour network?
Apple receives the printer driver software from various manufacturers. So far, none of the printer manufacturers have chosen to include extra features in the "USB network" versions of the software. Since this is a user forum, none of us here have any knowledge about what future plans may be.
Your question really should be directed to the manufacturer of your all-in-one device. While we can't speak for Apple, it would be logical to assume that they would include this software shortly after it is made available by the printer manufacturer.

That's correct. Another way of saying the same thing is that if you want your all-in-one device to function correctly on a network, then look for a network all-in-one device, not a USB device. A properly configured wireless all-in-one would also work as a network device, since it connects to the network, not to USB. -
Can't scan from 5610 all in one front panel
I have an HP5610 all in one installed on my Dell Vostro 200 with E6550 dual core processor, XP SP3 home OS. I noticed the problem when I tried to scan from the front panel of my 5610 and the orange exclamation light started blinking. The display said "No Scan Options". I ran the HP Print and Scan Doctor and it said to set the front panel scan destinations. I selected the default settings and closed the HP Direc.exe. When I opened the HP Direc.exe and looked for the panel destination that I set, I saw that they did not save. I can scan just fine using the HP software and have been doing so for many years. I now am wondering if I have had this issue all along, especially since I never remember trying to scan from the front panel of my 5610 until the other day.
I have done just about everything the Printing and Scan Doctor told me to do. I have shut down my 5610, unplugged it for several minutes, plugged it back in, removed the all in one program and reinstalled from the HP website. What is strange...I have the 5610 software installed on a Dell 3000 Dimension I have in a home network and it works perfectly. I'm seriously thinking about moving the 5610 in the room with my Dimension 3000 and buying a (print only) printer for my Vostro 200. I can work around this but I can't stand to have something not work correctly with a very good computer. Please, no comments on my preferred operating system. I am not upgrading, and as I said, this all in one works perfectly with a PC built in 2004. And contrary to belief, I am still getting security updates on a biweekly basis from Microsoft. One day last week I got 8 in one day. Thanks all for all of your excellent help!

Scan with b110 all in one from aMacbook Pro
I have a b100 all in one that i often use to scan documents. i have recently purchased a Macbook Pro and the printer works fine with the Mac. I can however not find the right software to make scans and upload these to my Mac. how to go further??
Hi nicviets,
I understand you have a Photosmart B110 printer that you need to scan with on a Mac using 10.9. I can certainly assist you with this.
At this time there is not HP full feature software for this printer for 10.9, but you can still scan via the Apple Software. You'll be able to use Apple Preview, Apple Image Capture, or Print and Scan as you wish.
Hope this helps, have a great day!!

Printing with HP all-in-one connected to Airport Extreme with USB
We have an HP Photosmart 2610 all-in-one, an AirPort Extreme base station, and a G-5 MacIntosh running OS 10.4.8. We can print when the all-in-one unit is connected directly to the Mac with USB cable, however, we are unable to print when the USB cable is connected to the base station. What can you suggest?
Which driver are you using?
According to HP must use drivers 6.3.4 or 7.0

Can you use 2 Aiport Express's; one as a base station & one to extend range
I have 2 Express units. Would like to use one as base station and one as a booster to extend the signal. Can this be done, or do you have to have an Extreme? I have 2 expresses as want to be able to use airtunes on 2 seperate stereos (not necessarily at same time). My cofig would be have cable modem ethernetted to the 1st Express, and have it also hooked to cable; computer in same room. 2nd Express is downstairs, near anohter stereo. Would like the one computer to send airtunes to both stereos ultimately.
Have tried using airport admin utility ap in the Utilities folder, but did not seem to help; no doubt I may have not done properly.
Thank you to the genius who can help me w/ this. TimI have 2 Express units. Would like to use one as base
station and one as a booster to extend the signal.
Can this be done
Yes.
Configure one Airport Express (AX) as a normal base station.
Hard reset the second and reconfigure using the assistant to extend the network of the first, this will automatically configure both AXs correctly.

Installed a new router. Installed Lion. Have an Epson Workforce 600 multi function printer. Two problems.
1. I cannot get Lion to recognize that the Epson is a multi function printer. There is no scan option on the "print/Scan" popup window.
2. When I try and use the epson scan utility I get: POWER PC APPLICATIONS ARE NOT LONGER SUPPORTED.
I have tried EPSON support with no real luck as they say it is Apple upgrades that are the problem.
Apple support was quite rude..said it was not their problem and that I should call epson. Told the I did but it made no difference just got the same reply.
Have no idea what to do.....seems I cannot find out which multi-function printers Lion supports.daolbuzzard1 wrote:
Epson Workforce 600 multi function printer
Not to give you another run around, but you need new printer drivers from Epson for your printer so it works in Lion.
Now it could be that they are working on it, or that they could have decided not to provide new drivers in order for you to force upgrade.
The only thing a user can do is decide very carefully BEFORE upgrading to a newer Apple operating system, make sure that all their current hardware and software works and make a decision for themselves.
Since you upgraded to Lion, you can go back to Snow Leopard and your PPC software will work.
Do you need instructions? -
I get a message that there are no scan options. How do I correct this?
Hey @MarthaK ,
Thank you for joining us on the HP Forums today, hope you enjoy your time with us!
I understand you are getting the error that "there are no scan options available".
Have you downloaded the full feature software or installed the full feature software from the printer CD that came with it?
Have you been able to scan before?
Are you scanning from the computer software or the printer control panel?
What Operating System are you using? Press the link to find out, in case you don't know already. http://whatsmyos.com/

Can my Macbook use an all-in-one connected to a Windows Home Server
Hey All, How do I connect my Canon Pixma MX700 to the Windows Home Server and be able to both Print and Scan from my Macbook over the network.
I just saw this post--it's for a different Canon than yours but it might point you in the right direction:
"The Canon MF6500 series uses the Canon UFR2 printer driver, which also supports the larger Canon multifunction copiers. If the printer is connected directly to the network via Ethernet, you use the More Printers > Canon IP (UFR2) option to enter the ip address of the printer. If the device is connected via USB, the Default browser view is used. In both cases, the user has no option to manually select the model in the print using menu. The driver communicates with the printer to determine which model it is.
If you have the printer connected via a Windows share, or to the USB port of a wireless router, the driver cannot 'see' the printer and will not complete the creation of the printer queue.
For a wireless router with Ethernet ports, you can connect the printer via Ethernet and then use the More Printers function. Of course the printer would require an Ethernet port for this to be possible, and I am not sure if you have such an option on the MF6500. If not, then you won't be able to use the printer the way you want.
FYI - the Apple Canon driver package is for the inkjet printers only.

Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its very long and steep learning curve.
It's not something you can learn in a forum, question by question. Teaching someone Photoshop from scratch exceeds the scope of this or any other forum.
The process involves isolating your face, by selecting it and deleting the unwanted parts around your face or with layer masks, then placing it as a new layer on top of your target image, making sure it's the right size, color, lighting, etc. Google for tutorials on any of those elements you are unfamiliar with, -

Can't scan with Epson Stylus DX4450
Hi everybody.
I'm trying to configure my Epson Stylus DX4450. Printing works like a charm, but scanner is not. I tried to configure it as it was suggested on various websites. I've installed sane, xsane, iscan (from http://repo.archlinux.fr/i686) also I've downloaded iscan-plugin-cx4400 from Avasys website, extracted it with rpmextract ant put the library to /usr/lib/iscan.
When I try sane-find-scanner it shows:
# sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
# result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
# scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.
# No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
# you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [Language Error], product=0x083f [Language Error]) at libusb:002:010
# Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by
# SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.
# Not checking for parallel port scanners.
# Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
# can't be detected by this program.
# You may want to run this program as root to find all devices. Once you
# found the scanner devices, be sure to adjust access permissions as
# necessary.
When I try scanimage -L it's idle for about a minute and then it shows:
No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
But when I try it again it shows:
device `epkowa:libusb:002:010' is a Epson flatbed scanner
Then if I try sane-find-scanner again it will show no language errors:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8, product=0x083f) at libusb:002:010
xsane will check for available devices for some time, then it shows a message, that no device is available. iscan shows a message "Could not send command to scanner. Check the scanners status". Sometimes iscan will launch, but I can't scan, because it will show me the "Could not send..." error message.
Device usually turns off when I try xsane. Two times xsane launched, but Epson turned off right after it. It also turns off sometimes when I try sane-find-scanner second time or when I try to launch iscan.
I read that there can be a conflict between sane and gphoto, moved /etc/udev/rules/54-gphoto.rules and restarted udev - still didn't work.

# epkowa.conf -- sample configuration for the EPKOWA SANE backend
# Copyright (C) 2004 Olaf Meeuwissen
# See sane-epkowa(5), sane-scsi(5) and sane-usb(5) for details.
# SCSI scanners can be configured simply by listing the path to the
# device. For example, if your system claims to have a /dev/scanner
# SCSI device, all you have to do is uncomment the following line:
#/dev/scanner
# In the interest of maintainability, most installations would have
# /dev/scanner sym-linked to the real SCSI scanner device node.
# An alternative way that works for many operating systems and is a
# little bit more generic, is to have the backend probe for your SCSI
# scanner with the following configuration command:
#scsi EPSON
# On systems with libusb, the following line is sufficient to get the
# backend to recognise your USB scanners. It presumes, however, that
# the scanner---more precisely, it's USB product ID---is known to the
# backend.
# For all USB scanners that are officially supported by this backend,
# this presumption is true. A list of such scanners can be found in
# sane-epkowa(5).
usb 0x4b8 0x83f
# For any USB scanner not known to the backend (yet), you may, at your
# own peril(!!), force the backend to recognise and use it via libusb.
# You can do so by the following configuration command:
# usb <USB vendor ID> <USB product ID>
# SEIKO EPSON's USB vendor ID is '0x04b8' (without quotes). In order
# to find the USB product ID, use lsusb(1) or, on Linux systems, peek
# at the information in /proc/bus/usb/devices.
# A sample configuration for the Perfection 1650 (GT-8200), which has
# a product ID of 0x0110, would look as follows:
#usb 0x04b8 0x0110
# When not accessing your USB scanner via libusb, you may need to use
# one of the configuration commands below or commands that are almost
# the same. These commands typically access the scanner via a kernel
# scanner module.
usb /dev/usb/scanner0
usb /dev/usbscanner0
usb /dev/uscanner0
# Linux had a scanner module until version 2.6.2. As of version 2.6.3
# libusb is your only option. Linux' scanner module can be loaded via
# the modprobe(8) command like so:
# modprobe scanner vendor=<USB vendor ID> product=<USB product ID>
# If the scanner module already knows the vendor and product IDs, you
# do not have to specify them. If you want to have this done automa-
# tically every time you boot, you can add the above line, except for
# the modprobe command itself, to your /etc/modules file.

Can anyone help with this?Almost solved.
First I've copied files extracted from iscan-plugin-cx4400.rpm from /usr/lib/iscan to /usr/lib/sane. Didn't work.
Then I've checked version of iscan with yaourt and it appeared that aur have newer version than the one from archlinux.fr repo. I've built it, moved epkowa.conf.pacsave to epkowa.conf and it worked once.
sane-find-scanner output was the same, with language errors, but scanimage -L showed that it found my scanner (don't have the exact output - it was different than before). xsane still didn't found the device but I managed to preview and scan to file printer test page with iscan.
When I tried it for the second time, sane-find-scanner output was the same, but scanimage -L didn't recognised the scanner. iscan didn't work. Tried to restart the device - still the same.
Tried to turn off the scanner, restart udev, start scanner again. Didn't work. -
I have a List which is having around 14000 items in it.while opening that list in datasheet view it is giving error .
Below is a summary of the issue:
After selecting datasheet view beow error occurs:
"Cannot connect to the server at this time. You can continue working with this list, but some data may not be available."
"Unable to retrieve all data."
The item counts displays say 100 out of 14000 items.
Exporting List to excel is giving only 2000 records out of 14000 records.
Other Observations -
This is happening to only one list on the site .There are other lists in the site whose no. of records is equal to 8000 to 9000.They are working absolutely fine without any error.
Also, If I am saving this list as a template and creating another list with it ,then it is working absolutely fine with 14000 records,so the issue does not seem to be related with no. of records as the template list is working fine.
I have checked the Alternate access mapping setting ,its fine.
It should not be related to lookup,datefield or any other column as the list created from it template is working fine with all these columns.
I checked below links also ,but doesn't seem to work in my case.
