HP LaserJet 1536dnf MFP will not copy or scan but does print

My HP LaserJet 1536dnf MFP will not copy or scan but does print. It does not matter if I use the ADF or the glass. When copying or scanning I get a completey black page. The light bar does move from one end of the printer glass to the other. There are no connectivity issues as the printing function and the e-print function work fine.
Thank you for your help

Hi @akb3,
I understand that when you try to scan or copy, you are getting a black page. I can help you with this.
Please keep the scanner lid open and then press the copy button.
Check if the scanner bulb glows.
Check if the scanner moves freely across the glass.
If it does not try connecting the printer directly to the wall jack and try again.
Update the printer's firmware if the bulb glows and scanner moves freely. HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf Multifunction Printer Drivers.
If the issue persists, then I would recommend to call HP Tech Support for further assistance to see what other options are available for you 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. Contact HP Worldwide.

Hp LaserJet 1536dnf MFP will not copy via auto feeder

The printer will print and scan, and copy from the glass just fine too. The problem is when you want to copy from the auto feeder. You put the paper in and press copy. It feeds it through but nothing prints out.

Hey Columbus_ISD,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums! I see when you attempt a copy from the ADF on your HP LaserJet 1536dnf MFP the output is blank, you are able to print copy and scan from the glass with no problems.
I would like you to go ahead and complete the following steps listed below:
1. Make sure the LJ 1536dnf is plugged directly into a wall outlet, DO NOT use a power bar or surge protector: Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector
2. Update the LJ's Firmware:
HP LaserJet Firmware Update Utility
Are you now able to make a successful copy from the ADF? If not, please check your inbox. I have sent you a Private message on the Forums, go to your Userpage to the right of your Username you will see it there.
I hope this helps,

HP LaserJet M1120 MFP will not print on wireless network with Windows 8.1 operating system

The printer worked on the wireless network with Windows 8.
I have been advised that it does not work with windows 8.1 because a driver is required. However this is not available to download.
It is ridiculous that by having the latest operating system I am unable to use the HP printer on the wireless network
When will HP have the driver to download?

Check the support site here.

Make sure you have the firmware update also.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium will not copy or scan.

Hello,
I have a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium that prints just fine however it will not copy or scan. When I attempt to copy a document it displays Starting Copy... on the printer but will not copy and must be turned off and on to use the printer again. When I attempt to scan it brings up an error box telling me to check all of my network connections.
I have already tried the services.msi fix and have ran hp printer and scannor doctor tool to attempt to fix my problem.
In the services.msi I found that all services dependant on (WIA) were already running and set to automatic.
The scan doctor found that It wasn't communicating with the drivers, which I then reinstalled, and restarted the computer. It then continued to have problems with the drivers and asked me to contact support.
Thank you for your time.
edit: The printer is also running the latest firmware and I have also checked my anti-virus firewall so that it is allowing the printer through network. (note: in attempt to fix the issue i have both a usb and network connection trying to get either connection to work).

Hi-
To make sure I understand this correctly, you are unable to do a copy at the device itself? This should function without the device being connected to a PC at all. if this is indeed the case, it sounds as if this is a hardware issue. I would then check with HP support on your product for warranty repair.

Photo gallery popups will not open in firefox, but does in internet explorer

In the last few days popups within a website will not open. IE photo gallerys, logins for internet banking.
It seems to be a problem only in firefox as they will open with internet explorer

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Kensington mouse scroll will not work in firefox but does in other apps

In all other application my scroll works fine, but in Firefox it will not work. I have tried switching the settings and still got nothing. I also check for driver updates on the mouse driver but they are up to date.

hello phillbatts, the java plugin and javascript are two very different things: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Javascript_is_not_Java
if websites report that javascript is disabled, try the following: enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''javascript.enabled'''. make sure that it is set to '''true''' and else double-click it in order to change its value.
if this doesn't help, please also make sure that you don't have any extensions (like noscript) installed, that might block the execution of javascript or other active content...

Will not open comic strips but does open political cartoons

Safari v5.1 has one problem; When opening MSNBC.com it will open political cartoons and other graphics OK, but will not open the comics section. Firefox has no problems with that, so I assume that the problem is within safari.

Nope, but it worked for years up to about a month ago. It should work, and it doesn't.

ENVY 120 will not copy or scan

I unpacked my new ENVY 120 yesterday.
I can print OK. Although on one occasion, printing 2 pages per sheets in duplex, the second side was unreadable. Tried again and the output was satisfactory.
The issue I have is with copy which should be straight forward ...
- If I touch copy and then print preview, the display says "Copy preview in progress" and stays there for hours (until I run out of patience)
- If touch copy and then black or color, the display says "Starting copy" and stays there for hours (until I run out of patience)
In all cases, the red x (cancel) is unresponsive. The only way to get the printer back is to touch the power button to shut the printer down and then restart it.
I have the same issue if I attempt to scan. The display stays on "Preparing scanning..."
I suspect the product is faulty. Since it does not appear possible to talk to anyone directly at HP to fix or confirm, if I don't get a satisfactory answer today, I will pack the printer send it back and buy another brand.

I am having the same issue with my two Envy printers. They will neither scan nor copy. They simply read "Copy Preview in Progress" and never progress past that screen.
Wish there was a better way to get support than through a forum that no one at HP apparently reads.

Hp f4440 all in one printer will not copy or scan

My F4440 all in one has suddenly stopped working. The on light blinks constantly and the little orange light at the front of the printer blinks as well. I have unplugged it from all electricity several times and checked all connections. No luck. Any ideas what I should do next?
Thanks.

Hello @aka6812 ,
Thanks a lot for the question, now lets get you an answer!
I see you are experiencing a "run time error" when trying to run your printer assistant after installing the HP 1510 software drivers.
Here is a description of what a run time error is. Microsoft Run Time Error
This might be because you have an outdated operating system, anti-virus blocking etc. Please take some time to follow the 3 step procedure to see if that fixes the issue.
Here is also a separate way to download the drivers from the web instead of a disk. Just click the appropriate link - Install / Uninstall software & drivers
Let me know what goes on! Look forward to hearing back from you!

Pogo game score history will not display in Mozilla but does in IE

In Pogo games, a tab will allow checking player standing among other players based on game scores. Recently, this feature stopped working in Firefox. Checked by way of Internet Explorer and the feature WAS still there. Cleared my Java cache, my Firefox cache and the score standings returned in Firefox but it only lasted about a week. Now I can't get it back again.

I have this problem too. I've just loaded my favicon.ico into my root folder and it shows next to the site url in latest Safari 5.0.5, but not in Firefox 3.6.17 - neither next to the site url nor on the page name tab.
Firefox also does not show the favicon in the Tools > Page Info > Media tab, although this does list just three of the many jpgs and pngs within its folders. I've just added the favicon.ico to the folder where it does see a jpg and png, but no joy, still not displayed. See attached png.
How do I overcome this problem? Is there a plugin that resolves this issue? It would be nice to have some color in the page name tabs. Many sites, such as this one, do have their favicons displayed by Firefox...

Background Image will not show on website but does in Dreamwever

I have the image in my file plus I have uploaded but without success ... I recently have a new ISP and it has not worked correctly since. I checked the in-line style and it is correct ... the background color will show, what is my problem?

A page created in Microsoft Word is no more a web page than one created in Microsoft Publisher. Yours is pretty messy as a result of its passage through Word -

and, what's equally bad, there is no doctype.
Finally, Word's Word Art is not suitable for use on the web at all.
I'm guessing that this is the image that is missing?
style={background-image: url("curly.jpg")
Change that to this and see what happens -

My iphone will not show in itunes but does in my computer, I have tried everything on the support site that it says it is also the same for my ipad, any ideas i am at my wits end

I have tried everything re-installing itunes, changing leads, checking device manager and drivers, my computer recognises the iphone and does import photos, but no music.
I am getting really frustrated with this issue.

Have you done all that?

New favicon will not display in Firefox, but does display in Safari

I am working on a new website and uploaded the favicon.ico into the root folder (Go Daddy). The favicon appears when I use Safari, not does not appear in Firefox... I have a mac OSX version 10.5 I have cleared the history and cache too. Any thoughts?

I have this problem too. I've just loaded my favicon.ico into my root folder and it shows next to the site url in latest Safari 5.0.5, but not in Firefox 3.6.17 - neither next to the site url nor on the page name tab.

Site will not center in Explorer but does in Firefox

Hi,
I just made this site http://www.theartisticreation.com
It looks perfect (to me) in firefox, but in explorer it does not site relative center in the window?
Can anyone help me figure this out?
I have everything inside a container div which is styled like this
#container {
position:relative;
margin-right:auto;
margin-left:auto;
width:1024px;
height:800px;
background-color:#000000;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-size: 12px;

For Explorer you need to set text to centre as well, then set it back when inside the container. I think it's just some versions of Explorer don't do auto-margins properly.
