Hp deskjet aio auto scans every time it's turned on

deskjet 340 aio every time I turn it on (if it's connected to my computer {windows xp pro}), it automatically opens scan window, scans (usually a blank page cuz nothings in the scanner) and opens a photo software program.  How do I change these settings?  It takes a long time and I can't do anything until it all stops loading and scanning etc.  Frustrating if all I want to do is print out a page! 

Hi Len77,
Welcome to the HP Forums! 
I understand that your HP Photosmart c3180 prints out a test sheet every time it's turned on.
Please take a look at this guide. An Alignment Page Prints Every Time that the All-in-One is Turned On or Off or a Print Job is Starte....
Hope to hear back, and have a great day!

  • My blackberry 9220 curve is getting auto reboot every time

    My blackberry 9220 curve is getting auto reboot every time. I have updated software, delete third party application, but still facing the auto reboot issue.

    Well, I don't agree with your conclusions, but I won't battle you. So, what would you like to try?
    Given your decided diagnosis, the only thing I can think of is the "Bare Bones OS Reload Procedure" to attempt to narrow down the precise causal item:
    Load your OS "bare bones"...if anything is optional, do not install it.
    If the behavior presents immediately, then try a different OS with step 1
    If the behavior does not immediately present, then run for as long as it takes for you to be sure that the behavior will not present.
    Add one thing -- no matter how tempting, just one.
    If the behavior does not present immediately, then again run for long enough to be sure it will not have the same problem
    Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are loaded or the behavior presents
    When the behavior presents, you know the culprit...the last thing you loaded.
    If the behavior does not re-present, then you know that either step 1 or 2 cured it.
    If the behavior presents no matter what, then you likely have a hardware level issue for which no amount of OS or software can cure.

  • Re: Problem with HP Officejet Pro 8500 printer: cleans printheads every time it's turned on

    I own two of these printers and they both have been cleaning printheads every time it's turned on. My old HP officejet never had  these problems. 
    The real problem is HP s   credibility . They promoted that these printers used half the ink as any other printer.  Even consumerreports showed 1/2  the cost per page.
    As we all know that is pure BS  notwithstanding  the cleaning printheads issues.   
    Maybe I will let Costco know that I and all owners are unhappy and see if they will refund. They still sell them . 
    I will repost if I have any success.

    If the printer is a year or couple yrs old, maybe the printheads need to be replaced? I once thought they would last forever, and that's really not the case with them, nor anything else really. Hope costco has some good news for you

  • After changing my 1st cartridge Envy 5530 printer wants to realign and scan each time it's turned on

  • C6-00 forgets date and time every time it is turne...

    A new annoyance has arisen with my C6.
    A few weeks ago, just as I left on a 3-week trip across different timezones and countries, the phone starts forgetting the date and time everytime it is turned off. And I needed to turn it off when boarding planes!
    What a pain in the backside when it stupidly asks for the date and time everytime it is turned on!
    This problem was not there before. And then one day it started occuring. No changes the software.
    Recently I updated the firmware to the latest one. No difference.
    I turned on the Update Time Automatically setitng but that seem to do absolutely nothing. And everytime I changed timezones this setting is forcibly turned off anyway. The problem started occuring before I started moving between timezones.
    Any suggestions? This post on a similar problem with the N95 [/t5/Nseries-and-S60-Smartphones/N95-8GB-forgets-date-and-time-every-time-it-is-turned-off/m-p/536562...] seem to say - live with it or bring it back to Nokia.
    Dear Nokia - re you seriously telling me this so-called smartphone cannot actually keep time?!!! That would be an unacceptable situation. Nonetheless, I look forward to a potential fix. Maybe it would be as simple as setting some soft swith in some hidden settings mode...
    Thanks!!!

    This is usually a symptom of a faulty auxilliary battery. It used to be quite common with the older phones. If it keeps happening it may be worth your while getting it replaced under warranty. The auxilliary in a small battery inside the phone and can only be replaced by a Nokia Care POint.

  • Way to Turn Off Auto Backup every time iPod Touch connected to computer?

    Many thanks in advance for your attention.
    Is there a way to Turn Off Auto Backup when one connects iPod Touch to computer?
    Auto backup to have started ever since 3.0 update.
    Sometimes I am just adding one track from iTunes to my iPod.
    Don't want to go through the 15-20 min. backup process each and every time.
    1. I uncheck "Sync Applications," but the default seems to Check it each time I open iTunes.
    2. Under iTunes/Preferences - Under "Devices" - I checked "Disable Automatic Syncing."
    3. I always have Music, Movies, etc. unchecked under "Sync" as I prefer to Sync these manually.
    So I am puzzled - why - when I plug in my iPod Touch, iTunes opens and automatically starts "backing up."

    if you're familiar with the terminal, exit iTunes, open up a terminal window and type this:
    "defaults write com.apple.iTunes DeviceBackupsDisabled -bool true" (without the qoutes)
    and press return. That will disable the automatic backup, and you will NOT have a new backup if the device craps. Please remeber that.
    To turn backup back on: exit iTunes, open up a terminal window and type this:
    "defaults write com.apple.iTunes DeviceBackupsDisabled -bool false" (without the qoutes)
    and press return.
    Now the backup is turned back on.

  • Firefox is auto loading every time I start Windows 7. How can I stop this from happening?

    Windows 7 - 64 bit. Firefox 7.0.1

    I set the default browser to chrome, no change. I then set it to IE, still no change. Every time I boot the computer it starts FF with google as the home page and no bookmarks or toolbars. I must then close it and wait until it is completely dead and then double click on my FF icon on the desktop. When the version of FF that I actually use starts, my home page is Yahoo, just as I set it to be. This version of FF also has my tool bars and bookmarks.

  • IPhone 5s starts over playlist every time car is turned off and one or gets unplugged from car stereo

    So I have a iPhone 5s and every single freaking time I turn the car off and then back on / or unplug the phone it starts playing music from the very first song alphabetically so basically what that means is every time I turn the car off and on the same stupid song plays every single freaking time I turn my car on!!!! I am ready to throw this phone like a frisbee over this. I play my music off of playlists I set up and I play them on shuffle but for whatever reason (now this didn't happen much in the past with my 4s, however towards the end of the 4s last couple months I had it... it was starting to get a little weird as well with where it stopped and started on the playlist when the car was turned off but nothing like this 5s) but with the new 5S every single time the car stereo get turned off and then on it does this.  I have a newer car stereo probably three years old with a USB sticking out of the front so you just plug the USB directly into the face and it goes straight in and should function in theory but this is crap. I use authentic Apple USB cables for the 5S but just cannot figure this out I've made sure I do not have repeat on I've turned shuffle off turn shuffle back on sync iPhone  etc.... what the heck s the problem? For such an expensive phone and a Supposed highly advanced technology by Apple this should be the last thing this phone should be doing. Is it the phone or is it the software whatever it is this is a serious problem for because when it comes to my music you don't mess with my music! I have mentioned this to other 5S owners and they have also experienced the same issue with their car stereos well. Why is it such a mind-boggling problem to just have the song play from where you left it? I thought maybe updating the phone with the latest and greatest software update with maybe fix the problem but no it didn't do a single thing. HELP!!!!! :(

    Status update: I tried my roommates iPhone five and I got similar results disappearing playlist when phone is disconnected or stereo is turned off in car, starts playing songs alphabetically when turned back on were plugged back in. So I know it's just not my phone it's a more universal problem with the 5 / 5S. I talk about this problem with customers I come a cross at work some have similar problems. I also try my phone on their car stereo and I also get similar results. My roommate who has the iPhone 5 recently got rid of it and got a Samsung note 3 this phone has no problem remembering where it was in the song when it was disconnected from the car stereo just like it's supposed to it just works. You turn the car off music stops turn the car on music begins playing where it was on the playlist it was playing in the same exact order it doesn't give you problems like the iPhone 5 / 5s. Also some customers I have talked to who have the 5C don't seem to really have this problem.

  • Problem with HP Officejet Pro 8500 printer: cleans printheads every time it's turned on

    Hello everybody,
    the printer HP Officejet Pro all-in-one 8500 (A909a - product n. CB022A) cleans printheads every time I turn it on. This problem affects any HP Officejet Pro 8500 printer, it isn't a problem only of that one I purchased. It is an annoying and irritating bug because the printheads cleaning at each power on implies two bad disadvantages:
    ink waste (each printheads cleaning process consumes some ink);
    too much time (2-3 minutes) to get the printer ready after power on.
    I upgraded my printer with the last firmware available on the HP site (firmware ver. DLM1FN1006BR) but the bug is still present.
    At this point I ask:
    there exists a way (or procedure) to disable this unnecessary automatic cleaning at every power on?
    Can someone contact HP engineers or tell me how contact directly one of them to indicate the bug and ask a new firmware update?
    Please don't tell me to leave the printer turned on all the time or that the printheads cleaning at every power on is a normal behavior! Where is then power and ink saving claimed for this printer model?
    I hope to receive a solution for this problem. Thanks in advance to everybody will help me!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    The servicing when the printer is turned on is normal and is required to keep the printheads healthy (not clogged). See here for information.
    As for power savings, the printer will automatically go into a low power mode when not printing for some time.  It is not necessary to turn the product off and on to save power.

  • Connect to iTunes every time iPad is turned off

    I recently bought an iPad.
    Every time the iPad runs out of battery and turns off, when I turn it back on it asks me to connect to iTunes.
    Dos anyone know why this happens?
    Thanks for your help
    Aris

    Same here. Went away on business. Left computer at home because IPad covers me for all essential chores. Turned off iPad on plane as requested. Upon restarting, IPad wants me to reconnect to iTunes.
    Now I am away from home for 10 days and no computer and no functioning ipad. Luckily I have my iPhone with me but iPad is now useless to me and I am without the capability to work properly.
    Does anyone have a solution not involving me having to source another computer ?

  • Have to reset CUPS every time machine is turned on/restarted

    About two weeks ago, out of the blue, my printers disappeared. So I opened Terminal and typed 'sudo cupsd' and admin password ... and printers magically reappeared ... until i restarted the machine. Now every time I turn the machine on or restart, I have to enter the 'sudo cupsd' command in Terminal to access the printers.
    Any idea why this is happening?

    Have you disabled hardware acceleration? (not solved by reset is usual)
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
