HP C4680 can't scan calibration sheet

. Just installed new cartridges. LLD 1107001001222043 and LLC 1207001101131926. Both orginal Hp 300xl cartriges. The printer recognized them as orginal hp as well. experation date i jan 2013 and jan 2012 (colour)
returns "can't find calibration page" when scanning. I think problem is that the printer is having problems printing a valid calibration page. It's very weak compared to earlier calibration prints.
have run calibration directly on printer. Tried turning on and off. And unplugging
scanner works great btw when scanning other things like pictues and such. And HP solutions center show the cartridges as full. I also found the clean catridge function and ran it three times, the last one took 2 minutes
Test pages starting to look good, but still a little weak. Tried manually adjusting inc use to heaviest.
printer will still not scan new calibration page
please help.

MBP 10.6.7 & HP C4680- can't scan, print, etc.

I purchased a MBP and HP C4680 as a bundle in April 2010.
The C4680 has always given me small issues, however after not using it for a while I've been unable to re-install the proper drivers to allow me to print/scan.
I've tried the HP disc, and subsequently uninstalled via the Uninstaller. I've tried the drivers made available by HP, and subsequently uninstalled using the "Scrubber" via the Uninstaller. I've tried the drivers made available by Apple(v. 2.6, I believe). Nothing works.
I really need this device to be functional, any and all help is greatly appreciated.
MacBookPro is running on 10.6.7, everything is up to date.

Thanks!
It's not.
Save and/or quit your applications & doucuments
Go to Applications>Utilities Folder
Click Disk Utility
Click the Volumn (HD) that you want to check.
Click the Repair Disk Permissions button. (Don't worry about verifying)
At the bottom of window when the repairs have finished, you will see the “most important thing”:
Permission Repairs Complete
The previliges have been repaired or completed on the selected volumn.
Restart your computer (Optional).
Same directions are also in the OS Mac Help Menu.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751 About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature
TIP-You should Repair Permissions & restart:
After installing and/or updating an OS (Operating System).
After installing software.
After burning sessions
===================
Depends on if your printer came w/an uninstaller. If not, you will need to manually search using Spotlight to search out all the straggler files or use a 3rd party uninstaller.
You really need to deal with HP technical support if you have not already done so.

Can I control my Hp5520 to scan a sheet of paper from a distance (remote)?

I am in Denver-my wife is in my office in WA. Can I scan a document that she puts in the printer from my computer in Denver?
This question was solved.

That printer does support scan to email as well, which may work out better in this situation. If she is already putting the item on the scan glass she could choose scan to email and input your email address. It does require a few steps to set up which are outlined in the document below after than she simply scans, puts your email in, and you will receive an email with that file attached to it.

HP Color Laser Jet Pro MFP M177fw can't scan or copy

I can not scan or copy. The printer is just showing a message on the display of "calibrating" I have not had any paper jams or changed any toners. I tried a hard reset to see if that would resolve the issue but it did not. I have the printer connected wirelessly. I have only had the unit for 2 weeks.

Hey @2stressed,
Unfortunately, the 'calibrating' error state that you have on your printer is a hardware issue. Therefore, any software troubleshooting (such as uninstalling and reinstalling) will have no impact on this issue.
At this time we have exhausted the support options available over the forums. I would strongly recommend that you contact our Technical Support queue by phone to explore hardware replacement options.
HP Technical Support can be reached at: 800-474-6836.
If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

When you speak with the phone support agent please advise them of all the troubleshooting steps you have completed and the results of those steps.
It has been a pleasure working with you. I wish you luck going forward with this!

In reality I couldn't print either. Not sure what really fixed it, but it seemed that adding hpoj from AUR and rebooting did it. I then readded the printer and now all works.

HP Photosmart C4680 won't scan

I upgraded to Snow Leopard and now my HP Photosmart C4680 all in one won't scan despite being on the list of supported HP printers for Snow Leopard. I attempted to scan using the new Snow Leopard scanning options, but the scanner doesn't appear.

I solved this problem by uninstalling the HP Photosmart software which came with the printer. When I attempted to add the printer the software update hung, so I quit it and then restarted the computer. The software update then ran successfully and I can now scan.
It is nice to be able to scan from within Preview. The experience is better than with the HP Photosmart software.

Can't scan anymore.

I have a C4680. Can't scan anymore. What might be the problem? Then i tried to download a drive from HP thinking it might solve the problem. The screen says click "download" to start downloading. But where is the "download" button?
Thank you.

Hi @Sky1 ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you cannot scan with your HP Photosmart c4680, on Mac OS X 10.10. I am happy to help!
For this printer on Mac OS X 10.10 there are no full feature software and drivers from HP. Only a generic driver that is built-in to the Operating System, as shown in this guide, HP Printers - Installing a Mac Printer Driver Using Apple Software Update.
To scan, you will want to go through this post, Re: iMac OS X 10.9.3 Scan to iMac Driver for HP OfficeJet Pro 8500A A910a does not seem to exist, by my colleague @Sunshyn2005. Even though this post is for a different printer and Operating System, it will still apply to your situation.
Hope this helps!

I can't scan over wireless with my laserjet 100 color mfp m175mw - Windows 7

HP Scan software doesn't boot up and work unless printer is hooked to pc via usb. Can't seem to scan wirelessly. Normal?

Hi @juancgallardo ,
I see that you are experiencing issues scanning over the wireless network and hardwired network on Yosemite.
I would like to help you out with this issue today.
The drivers for Yosemite are installed by the Apple Updates.
Installing Your HP Printer Driver and Software for Mac OS X.
Did you add the printer as a Bonjour printer or IP Protocal?
IP Protocal won't allow you to scan, just print.
You can also download and install the HP Printer Drivers v3.0 for OS X.
If you are still having issues then check that the scanning ports on the router to make sure that they are open. You can contact the router company to check and open these ports 9220/9500/427 on the router.
If you still can't scan, connect the printer directly to the Mac with a USB cable and see if you can scan. Just to rule out a network issue.
What kind of router do you have?
Please provide in detail the results if you are still having issues.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Hp laserjet 400 mfp can't scan, i lost the installation cd

Hello,
i have a hp laserjet 400 mfp and i can't scan.
I have Windows 7 and the printer works just fine with the W7 software, but the scan option is not available, because the software installs only the printer, not the scanner.
I lost the installation cd and the installation software from hp support only install the printer , not the scanning option. Please help.
I also tried the e-mail scanning software from hp, but i don't know if it works , because i don;t know how to set the settings.
Thank you.

Hi, thank you for your answer. I tried with the full software you gave me in your link, but it was no good, because my printer is a Laserjet 4100 MFP, and the software was asking for an usb device, wich my printer is not...
I don't need the driver for the printer, i have that driver, but that driver sees the MFP like a simple printer, without scanner, so, the scanner remains usefull. I need the full software or the CD.
I don't receive an error, i just need the full software for Laserjet 4100 MFP. I didn't find it on HP's website, unfortunately and i don't have the installation CD anymore, cause i lost it....
Thank you.

HP Photosmart 5520. Can't scan to my computer

HP Photosmart 5520. I can print FROM my computer just fine, but can't scan from the printer TO my computer. Message is "Connection Error." This happens sometimes, but usually I can fix by turning everything off, disconnecting, and starting over. Today nothing works. This is getting tiresome. Printing works fine. BTW, I do not control the router & can't just turn it on and off. I am not technologically savvy; I just want the thing to work.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi,
The scan to computer is disabled by default (I don't know why the software girls/guys desinged that way). On my machine, driver for Windows 8 is much better (even same exe file). Please enable it using the following steps (please note: for Windows machines)
   Double click printer icon on desktop,
   Click Manage Scan to Computer,
   Click Enable
You may want to tick the last square too.

After the new 10.9.2 Maverick upgrade, my Photosmart C4480 3 in 1 printer can not scan and save the file to desktop or documents. You can only see the image in the print preview area. Does anyone know how to fix this or when a fix will be out?

After Aple support downloaded the new 10.9.2 Maverick upgrade on my MacBook Air, my Photosmart C4480 3 in 1 printer can not scan a document and load the file on to my desktop or document file. (You can see the doc image in the preview but it doesn't save it.) Does anyone know an Apple fix for this or when the fix will be out? After hours of trying reloading, and the usual fixes, etc. Apple told me to call HP, and HP told me they don't support Mac. It does not seem honorable of Apple to put out an upgrade and not tell people it will destroy their scanning ability, and that the only thing to do is to buy another printer/scanner.

Have you tried using Applications/Image Capture to scan.
Vuescan often works.

How can I scan multiple pages to one file with MG 7120

My printer does not have ADF. How can I scan multiple pages to one file on my MG 7120?

Hi albabynyr,
There is a program that comes with the printer called the IJ Scan Utility that can assist you with scanning multiple pages into a single file. To scan using the IJ Scan Utility, please follow these steps:
1. Start IJ Scan Utility by going to your Start menu, then selecting All Programs, then Canon Utilities, then IJ Scan Utility (folder), then IJ Scan Utility (program).
2. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears.
3. Click the DOCUMENT SCAN option on the left pane of the window.
4. In the right pane of the window, locate the SELECT SOURCE field and select the DOCUMENT option.
5. Set the color mode, document size, and scanning resolution as required in the rest of the fields shown in the window. Click DOCUMENT SCAN ORIENTATION SETTINGS... to specify the orientation of the documents to be scanned.
6. In the SAVE SETTINGS section of the window, you will select the save format and location of the document you are about to scan.
a.) In the FILE NAME field, specify the name you would like to give the file. By default the filename will begin with IMG; you can remove IMG and change it to whatever you would like to name the file.
b.) In the DATA FORMAT field, use the drop-down arrow to select the PDF (Multiple Pages) option.
c.) In the SAVE IN field, please navigate to the area where you would like the file to be saved once it is scanned in. By default, the file will be saved in the DOCUMENTS folder.
7. Once all settings have been selected, click the OK button at the bottom of the SETTINGS (DOCUMENT SCAN) window. The IJ Scan Utility main screen appears.
8. Click the DOCUMENT button. Scanning starts. After a page has scanned, the screen to continue or end scanning appears. If you have more pages to scan, place the next page on the platen and click Scan. Do this each time a page has completed scanning. After the last page has been scanned, click Exit. Scanned images are saved in previously selected folder location specified in the SETTINGS... window. Click the CANCEL button to cancel scanning if needed during scanning.
Hope this helps!

I clicked on a link in an email that may be spam/phishing. How can I scan my mac book pro for viruses?

You can just download the free ClamXav and scan your entire drive - but as there are no known viruses for OS X (although there is malware - see Thomas Reed's excellent Mac Malware Guide) it's very unlikely that you have a virus.
The best source against malware is OS X itself and common sense. Don't click on links in suspicious emails and be careful of anything that wants to install something on your computer that is not from a reputable source.
