HP Officejet 4620 won't scan to Mac with OSX 10.10

After upgrading to OSX Yosemite, I've had a series of problems with my MacBook being able to find my printer.  I've deleted the printer, reinstalled, cycled the router, updated, emptied the cache - you name it.  Now, my MacBook sees the printer for printing but won't communicate for scanning.  Help?

Hi there @BillSpohn , welcome to the HP Community,
I read your message about your scanning troubles and have a few steps in mind for you that should work. Please try these steps in order that I have posted them in. Make sure the printer will produce copies successfully before any software troubleshooting, which will test the printers hardware to ensure the printer is in good functioning order first.
Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system
Repair disk permissions
Restart the Mac
Download and install the Full Driver here: HP Officejet 4620 series Full Feature Software and Drivers
In addition, download this Apple driver: HP Printer Drivers v3.0 for OS X
Try scanning now and it should be functioning for you again.
Good luck

  • HP Officejet 4620 won't scan to computer

    I'm running windows 7. My computer is enabled and shows on the printer control panel. I have uninstalled and reinstall from the HP Disc. I start scan and it says "preparing to scan" on the display. Then it shows Scan could not complete Connection to computer has been lost or OCR app is not installed on computer. I get the same thing if I try to connect vis USB.
    I did notice that I am unable to open the scan dialog box even after reinstall,
    I've searched the forum and still lost. All the wireless printing and faxing works fine.
    Any suggestions??????

    All of that looks fine.  Check the firmware on the printer.  It may be out dated and need updating.  If it updates, it might fix the problem.  Let me know what happens.

  • HP Officejet 4620 Won't Scan on Printer Itself

    My computer runs on Windows 8, and updated itself last night. Somehow my printer was disconnected from the computer, so I couldn't do anything. I reinstalled the printer, but now I cannot scan using the "scan" button on the printer itself; I now have to scan from the desktop using the printer assistant icon. How can I make it so I'm able to scan directly from the printer to the computer?

    Hello @BrendaBrown , and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see you're experiencing scanning problems.  I would like to help!
    I would recommend performing a power reset on the printer.  Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
    I would also recommend downloading and running the scan portion of the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

    Scan from your Mac using Image Capture in your Applications folder.  What version of OS X?

  • Not able to install Logic on mac with OSX.  10.8.2. Error message: Logic Studio.mpkg cannot be opened as the power pc programs are no longer supported. I have logic studio 8 software purchased in 2007 and upgraded with logic studio 9 (purchased in 2009)

    After an earlier attempt to move Logic from my other mac (OSX 10.6.8) with the migration assistant to my new mac with OSX 10.8.2. I've re-started the whole start up process by erasing the hard drive from the new machine and build it up from scratch. After a new "out of the box" start, I decided to install LOGIC from my disks : starting with my 2007 package Logic Studio 8 and upgrading with my Logic 9 package from 2009. When trying to start to install 2008 I got the error message : Logic Studio.mpkg cannot be opened as the power pc programs are no longer supported.
    What does this mean? HOw do I get this working under 10.8.2 as it works flawlessly under OSX 10.6.8. For sure I didn't buy a new machine to have OSX 10.8.2 but I suspect this is the roadblock to installing my logic package.
    Help!

    Mark,
    Sorry...
    I completely lost the thread (I actually got confused between you and another poster on a another forum that was asking the same basic question) and somehow ended up thinking you were trying to install on a PPC Mac
    My apologies and please ingnore those parts of my last post relating to the PPC Macs...
    You have an Intel Mac and therefore Logic Studio 2 Boxed Upgrade set should install/run on your Mac without issue. As I said earlier.. you do not need to try and install from the original Logic Studio 1 /Logic 8 Boxed set...(It won't work anyhow because you have an Intel Mac and that version had a PPC installer)  but just install from the Logic Studio 2 / Logic Pro 9 Upgrade Boxed setof DVDs instead...
    Have you tried the "Make Disk Image" solution I gave earlier? That normnally works under such circumstances as what you are describing can happen when your DVD drive cannot read the DVDs correctly... I have had this situation myself where one drive read them okay and another failed to do so for whatever reason. Making and then installing from Disk images of those exact same disks resolved the issue for me...
    You can try to reinstall directly from the DVDs of course though under some circumstances it may not allow you to reinstall Logic Pro itself if that part of the original installation attempt was successful... in which case you can also try this... (It's probably the easiest method if Logic 9 was already installed and present in your Apps Folder)
    If the Logic Pro App is in your applications folder..
    Run Software Updates to update Logic Pro to a version that will run under 10.8.2 (The initially installed version of Logic will not)
    Run Logic
    Go to the menu bar in Logic and select Logic Pro/Install Additional Content and select all content in there..
    This content is basically exactly the same as what is stored on the remaining DVDs of the boxed set so you might not need to use the rest of the DVDs to install from but download it all instead from Apple Servers...

    Hi, I am having a little trouble with exporting images to another drive and Catalogue and need some help if anyone can give me some advice
    I am currently using Lightroom 5.6 and operating on a Mac with OSX Ver 10.9.5.
    I am receiving an error problem when doing the following -
    I am exporting selected photos from a particular Catalogue saved on Drive 1 to a folder created on another Drive where a Lightroom Catalogue has been created. In this Catalogue I have arranged for the images once exported to be moved to a different folder - I used the Auto Import process under the File dialogue box.
    When processing the Export I receive an error message for each of the images being exported indicating the following -
    Heading Import Results
    Some import operations were not performed
    Could not move a file to requested location. (1)
    then a description of the image with file name
    Box Save As                                  Box  OK
    If I click the OK button to each image I can then go to the other Catalogue and all images are then transferred to the file as required.
    To click the OK button each time is time consuming, possibly I have missed an action or maybe you can advise an alternative method to save the time in actioning this process.
    Thanks if you can can help out.

    Thank You, but this is a gong show. Why is something that is so important to us all so very, very difficult to do?

    Printer is overprinting old jobs on top of new jobs.  Using a Mac with OSx and a HP photosmart for over a year.  this just started happening.

    RReset printing system again and the restart in Safe Mode . This will clear some caches,to do this hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup tone until a progress bar appears, after it has fully booted restart normally and add the printer.

  • How do I get my old printer "HP Laserjet 4mv" to work on my newer Macs with OSX?

    How do I get my old printer "HP Laserjet 4mv" to work on my newer Macs with OSX?
    There is no HP support for this old printer. I have tried to connect via ethernet (thru ethernet router), and it does not show up in printer preferences. The printer worked fine on system 9x but when I went to my new macs with system X no luck. This is a great B&W printer that prints at 18 x 24". I would like to keep it and not junk it, but its been sitting on my desk unused for some time now. Any thoughts or JUNK IT! Thanks, R.T.

    Does anyone at Apple have help for this sort of question - I too have an old printer (HP LaserJet 5MP) that I would like to keep using on my Mac. (Mac OSX 10.6.8).
    I got it working by getting a USB cord that connects to it - but every once in a while it just stops working for weeks. The mac 'sees' it and it sends the data because the printer lights start blinking but then it just doesn't do anything. Is there no one who can tell me (and raterada) how to get some new life into these old printers. I would rather not add this (and a new toner cart) to the landfill just yet. . .

    Hello.  I am running Photoshop CC 2014 on a MAC with OSX LION.  I also have Photoshop CS6 installed.  When I double-click on a file in Bridge CC, it always opens in CS6.  If I say "OPEN WITH Photoshop CC 2014", or if I drag the file directly to CC 2014 in the Dock it will open in CC.  Since I like to double-click or hit return in the bridge, I am constantly having to wait until the file opens in CS6, quit CS6 an then open it another way to get it into Photoshop CC 2014.  I tried to disable CS6 by hiding it, but then double-clicking Bridge did nothing.  Any ideas why this is happening?

    Check and adjust the File Type Associations in the bridge cc preferences.
