HP Printer Photosmart C4180 All in One

HP Photosmart C4180 All in One Printer.
I did reinstall the printer using the original disk, did uninstall it and then reinstall it, but did not work right. Then I try to download the driver direct from HP and I get the same result (The printer works but the scanner, ink levels etc is not working)
I need to TOTALLY REMOVE THE ENTIRE SOFWARE, can somebody help?
Thank you,
Anthony

Photosmart C4180 All-in-One. While printing it stopped and the power button is orange. Nothing works

Hi, I have a Photosmart C4180 All-in-One. So far it worked perfectly.
Tonight I had to print a few pages and right in the middle of it, it stopped leaving the page halfway.
Also the on/off button stays orange and there is an exclamation point underneath it.
I removed the page and turned off the power by removing the plug (pressing the on/off button didn't work).
While putting the plug back in, the power came on again... but the on/off button remains orange. Nothing works.
Does anybody recognize this problem and/or does anybody have a solution for this?
Thank you,
Dutchfox

Hi , I understand that you are having issues printing and scanning. I would be happy to help you.
Try and print a hardware self test on the printer to find out if it is a hardware or software issue.HP Photosmart (D110), Photosmart Wireless (B110), and Photosmart Ink Advantage (K510) e-All-in-One Printer Series - Printing a Network Configuration Page. Check to see if you still have a valid IPv4 address. If you have a valid IPv4 address for the printer then try and access the Embedded Web Server for the printer.
Type the IPv4 address into your web browser's address bar. (Safari)Did it load the web page? If you were able to access the printer's Embedded Web Server, please try the following steps: Repair the Disk Permissions on the Mac:Close all applications.On the Apple menu bar, click Go, click Applications and then click Utilities.Double-click Disk Utility.Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left.Click Verify and then Repair Disk Permissions. Restart the computer.. Reset the Printing System: Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol. Click the Apple icon and then click System Preferences.Click Printers & Scanners.Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left white side panel, then click Reset printing system.Click OK to confirm the reset.Type the correct Name and Password.Click OK to reset the printing system.Then click the + sign to add the driver, highlight the printer. (you might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name) Then click on the Add button. If you appreciate my efforts, please click the 'Thumbs up' button below. If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know. Thank You.

HP Photosmart C4180 All In One ... won't scan at all

According to HP, I have all the latest HP Photosmart C4180 "All In One" Drivers Installed.
According to PackardBell (my pc) it is all installed to Windows 7 with a 32 Bit Operating System.
The problem I get is that I start the P/C ... Then I opened up the HP "Solution Centre" on the desktop ...
It tells me "Your HP Photosmart C4100 series is ready"
In the middle of the screen it says "Start An Activity" then there is a button that says
"Scan Document" ... I press on this button and it seems to do nothing!!! ...
Please Help?? ... gooseman57

Hi there @gooseman57 !
Thanks for contacting the HP Forums!
From what I can see from your post, sound like the scanning software for the HP Photosmart C4180 is not responding. I should be able to provide you with a resolution for your issue.
A good place to start with an issue such as this, is to restart the computer and the printer. I would suggest trying a photo copy on the printer to ensure the printer hardware is OK!
If you continue to experience this problem I would then suggest uninstalling and reinstalling the HP drivers.
I have provided a link with instructions on uninstalling the printer software and another link to the HP Photosmart C4100 All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver
There are also other ways of scanning we can explore. For example, you can scan using the program Microsoft Paint. All you need to do is:
1.Open PAINT
2.Go to "FILE" dropdown
3.Click: From scanner or camera
3.Choose your printer
4.Choose what type of scan you would like
5.Click SCAN
6.Click SAVE
Here is a link to a YouTube video for scanning using Microsoft Paint: Scan with your All-in-One Using Windows Paint (Windows 7)
Let me know if this was useful information and please post back with the results of your troubleshooting.

Setup can't detect network printer Photosmart C7250 all in one

I volunteer for our local historical society. The person who did a lot of the computer maintenance work is not active at this time so I’ve begun to look at things.
There is a Gateway PC running Windows 7 64 bit home premium, a Sony Vio laptop running Vista 32 bit home premium, an HP Laser printer and (of most importance here) an HP Photosmart C7250 All in one printer.
Internet connectivity is via a dsl line with a combination modem/router. I think the modem/router is a Westell or an Actiontec through Frontier Communications (formerly Verizon in this area) but I’m not sure and I’m not at the museum now.
A couple of weeks ago I was able to connect the laptop to the network via wifi. My next step is to connect the laptop wirelessly to the printer so we can print wirelessly over the network. The printer was originally set up through a usb connection so I changed it to a wired Ethernet connection. The PC now successfully prints to the printer over the network. I downloaded the software and drivers directly to the laptop from the HP site and began the installation. When it got to the point of finding the network printer the software couldn’t detect it. I then put in the ip address for the printer (from the network info printed out from the printer) and it still couldn’t find it.
This same situation occurred when I tried to set it up on my personal laptop (Win7 , 64 bit) as well. Setup couldn’t detect the network printer, even after searching for the network ip address.
Since the printer is connected to the network (router) via an Ethernet cable, I don’t have the wifi radio turned on in the printer. This shouldn’t make any difference.
I’ve searched the forums and haven’t seen anything that is like my issue.
I don’t what else to do. Hopefully someone will give me some advice on what to do next.

Download and run this utility: http://h20180.www2.hp.com/apps/Nav?h_pagetype=s-926&h_lang=en&h_client=s-h-e17-1&h_keyword=dg-NDU&ju...
What does it say?
If the network has Wireless Isolation turned on it will prevent wired devices from seeing wireless devices. Do you have access to the router?

OCR with HP printer Photosmart 2570 all-in-one

I prepare a newsletter with Pages once a quarter, and I find that it would help if I could use OCR to avoid having to type some of the contributions.
When I open the Device Manager of the HP printer it offers 'Make copies', 'Scan to OCR' and 'Scan Picture'.   The Scan to OCR, when double clicked says "Scanner not found error", this used to happen with the Scan Picture, but by going to Preview, 'Import from Scanner', you can get a picture scanned, but the OCR option doesn't work.
     The scan will scan text as well, of course, but how to you activate the OCR software (if it exists) ?
     Alernatively, is there another easy, inexpensive way to perform the OCR function ?
     I have tried HP, but their website is a bit of a maze.   Also I found that Microsoft have a new Office for Mac 2011, an upgrade from the 2008 version, and they have a process called "Document Imaging", but this may not be in the version for Mac.(it was left out of the 2008 version)
     The scanning function on my present printer give very good results, I need to transfer the scan to a Mac-friendly OCR programme.
     I am open to suggestions, and will be very grateful for a solution.
     Thankyou all       Eric

Photosmart c7280 All-in-one Network Issues

Hi, i was given this printer (Photosmart c7280 All-in-one) by my dad about a year ago it worked flawlessly for quite some time. However a few months ago we had a really bad storm and lost power and ever since then I have been getting error messages and my network radio has not been working at all. I am afraid that it might be fried but if i could have any help troubleshooting it at all that would be greatly appreciated! Also, i was reading some other help forum posts and tried to reset it (# and 6 while powering on) and it printed out a connectivity status report by itself. It says "The wireless network interface (Wifi0) is not functioning properly. This may be a problem with the printing device hardware." Again im afraid it might never work again but any help is appreciated! Thanks

Hi,
Since you have tried performing reset and printer status shows as WIFI ICU not working, you can try connecting printer with an ethernet cable and use as a network printer.

Hp - photosmart e-all-in-one wireless printer cn731a- nothing prints??

HP - Photosmart e-All-in-One Wireless Printer (CN731A)
Went through setup on Windows 7 64-bit, printed the test photo, came out great. Thought everything was good to go. Later, when trying to print a document, it wouldn't print. Computer popped up a message saying "Successfully printed" but when I went to the printer, there was nothing there. I tried running a wireless network test on the printer's screen, and once that page printed with the results, immediately after that, the document I was trying to get finally printed. This was an early Christmas gift for my parents, & my mom just informed me that she tried to print again today, but nothing happened on the printer. I am out of town now and am not able to troubleshoot on my own on the printer like I did a couple days ago so came here for advice.. Any idea what the issue might be? Did I maybe miss a step after doing the test print of the photo? Any ideas would be appreciated!

Hello,
Try the below steps ..
While the printer is ON, Unplug the power cord from back of the printer.
Disconnect all the cables that are connected to the printer.
Wait for 30 seconds.
Plug in only the Power Cord. ( Printer would Power on ).
Try making a standalone Color copy of a document . If it fails to print a copy, then it could either be an issue with the Ink cartridges or the Printer .

How do I add my HP Photosmart e-ALL-IN-ONE D110 series printer to my Android Tablet?

Hi,
Given your ptinter supports print from Android, you need an app called HP ePrint. Please use Google Store to install it:

Problem with installing Solution Center for a HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer - C309g

Hi folks,
I've searched many threads and found some directions to remedy this, tried them and have had no luck.
I'm running Windows 7. All updates are current. When I bought the printer I installed the software (on Windows 7 OS) from the disc and everything was fine. Fast forward a year and Solution Center stopped working.
Uninstalled all HP software to reinstall. I was only able to reinstall HP Update. I was able to load the basic drivers for print and scan, but not the entire software suite including Solution Center. The installation stops abruptly after "installing updates".
I even downloaded and tried "PS_AIO_06_C309g-m_USW_Full_Win_enu_140_175" and got the same result as the original installation disc.
What can I do with my printer (HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer - C309g)???
Thanks,
Alex

Since I installed Mountain Lion operating system, I cannot print. I have a HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-one printer. I get a message when I try to update the software "Server not available The software update service is currently not available."

After installing Mountain Lion, my printer doesn't work. I know it is connected as it shows up, The message is:
"The printer software was installed incorrectly. Please reinstall the software for this printer or conact the anufacturer for assistance."
I used the disk that came with the printer as when I go to the HP site, it tells me that Apple has the drivers needed. I unistalled the printer and reistalled. Previously, I just went to the HP website an everything worked fine for drivers, program, etc. I never had to use the CD that came with the printer. My printer is: HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-one, it is wireless, but I even took the computer and plugged it into the printer to make sure that everything was connected. Can someone please help me to get this working,
Thank you,

I'm having a problem printing on my HP Photosmart C7280 All-In-One. The following message is what came up on the printer screen: Ink System Failure has failed unable to copy, receive faxes or print. Refer to printer documentation Error O.cl9a0007.

Hey Spider! First off welcome to the forum.
I would recommend removing all the ink cartridges, unplugging the USB cable from the computer that connects to the printer, and then shutting the printer off completely by removing the power cord. Then restart your computer. Turn the printer back on but leave it disconnected from the computer. After it has finished its power on cycle go ahead and insert the ink cartridges back into the printer and be sure to seat them properly.
After you have all the cartridges back in the printer properly then connect it to the computer. See if this resolves the issue. If not post back with any findings.
Thanks,
SeanS
