HP DeskJet 2050 j510 doesn't scan

Hi.
I've followed instructions at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sa … P_hardware to configure HP DeskJet 2050 j510 but I still can't make scanner to work.
XSane just throws lots of error windows with I/O errors.
scanimage gives this:
scanimage: sane_start: Error during device I/O
Closing device
Calling sane_exit
scanimage: finished
In journal I see the following:
Jun 06 20:18:42 localhost.localdomain scanimage[7307]: scan/sane/http.c 346: invalid http_status=500
Jun 06 20:18:42 localhost.localdomain scanimage[7307]: scan/sane/http.c 350: dumping len=194
Jun 06 20:18:43 localhost.localdomain scanimage[7307]: scan/sane/http.c 189: timeout reading data sec_timeout=1
What could that be? I've google a lot, but still can't figure out what's the problem

My HP Deskjet 2050 J510 can NOT scan for my MBA.

My HP Deskjet 2050 J510 can NOT scan with my MBA. It could not print before I download the printer driver as described in the below link...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4670
After install the printer drive...
Now the printing function works fine, but the scan function won't work. Could anyone give me a suggestion to make both printing and scanner functions work?
Thank you
Bill

Try to re-install the drivers and software for the printer.
You can also try to run the print and scan doctor, and see if it will auto-fix it.

What Operating System are you using? Windows or Mac? What version?
Can you make copies with the printer?
Is the power cable plugged into a surge protector or directly to the wall outlet? Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
Are you using Genuine HP cartridges or refills?

Estimated Ink Level feature in HP Deskjet 2050 J510 printer

Does anyone know why the shortcut of the HP Deskjet 2050 printer no longer has the estimated ink level feature? It was there until 12/5/12 and now the entire window has changed. Now it only has the options to "See whats printing", "Customize your printer", and Set preferences". I can.t find any reference to any updates that may have changed this, thus I have no restore point. The only thing that has changed recently is the new version of the HP Support Assistant. Could this have an effect on the printer software?
This question was solved.

@rodustep,
The fix for this issue would be to uninstall current software and download the lastest drivers for your printer. I am linking you to the software and driver page just select operating system and select full feature driver.

Let me know how it goes.

Print page preview wont load hp deskjet 2050 j510 series , windows xp

Hello euless609, It won't load print preview at all or it is blank?Multiple programs or a specific program?Has the issue always happened or is this a new recent occurance?

Hello eluess609, It's happening with multiple programs on your computer? Print Preview is not a software component that is dependant of a printer. So you can have no printers installed, but still have print preview. If it's failing it's likely something on the OS level that is causing the issue.
Does print preview work in safe mode?Can you include a screenshot of what you are seeing? I have seen numerous reports of print preview not working in Chrome, but your issue seems to be with many programs so that doesn't appear to be the same issue.

HP DeskJet 2050, J510 series

How do I eliminate the header and page numbers from my printed documents/

It is possible that the virus removal took some of the scanning software with it. Let's try a complete uninstall, computer check and install.
Use this Microsoft tool to uninstall: Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled, all the printer software.
Run the System File Check on the computer: Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files.
Install any and Windows updates on the computer, Optional updates would not be needed.
Restart the computer, if after the updates it didn't on its own.
Download and install the printer software with the Printer Install Wizard.
Let me know if you are able to scan now.

Why cant i get printer cartridges for my hp deskjet 2050 j510 printer?

This is a new printer -bought for our small family business as part of HP package.
I have had many HP printers and am a loyal customer.
Few of the main printer cartridge suppliers seem to stock the cartridges for this printer.
I have never encountered this problem before.
Anyone encountered this and solved it?
I am in South East of England

Hi SEBALOGAC,
I don't know why the cartridges are hard to find in your area. Perhaps the stores are limiting their stock in these difficult economic times?
However, you can always order the cartridges online at:
