Image scanning problem

Hi jonathanapp,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're installing a printer/scanner combo on your Mac. You may need to refer to the documentation that came with the scanner for specific information on how to set it up with your MacBook Air.
You may also find these tips helpful:
Tips for scanning in OS X
Check the list of supported scanners for the model of scanner you are about to connect to your Mac.
Use Software Update to automatically install third-party scanner / printer software updates.
If you are unable to scan
Verify the scanner has power and is turned on. Turn the scanner off and then back on again.

Printing/Scanning Problem with HP All-In-One

As you will see, I am a bit confused as to how my Mac is talking to my HP all in one. I am having printing and scanning problems. When I try to print, nothing happens. I go to print status and the print job is there but the printer is not printing. I try pausing, deleting and trying to print again, hold to no avail. It recognizes the job, it just won't print.
Scanning is similar. Most of the time I end up with an error message "The scan cannot be performed because another program has control of the HP imaging device". It directs me to restart the program, close all programs, re-boot the computer. I have done all of these and no go. In addition, no other programs are running at the time.
As far as my computer recognizing the HP, it does in both wifi and bluetooth. I have made it my default printer.
I have a time capsule as a router and everything is set up properly for it. Four bars are shown indicating it is acting properly. Both it and bluetooth are turned on. The HP status lights are on for both wifi and bluetooth.
I have checked with HP and Apple Support and could not find anything that addresses my issue. Please help!!
Thanks

I had a similar problem awhile back with my HP F2210 all-in-one. I basically re-downloaded all of the software for the printer from HPs site. Before re-installing, I did a safe boot. Then, I reinstalled and restarted and all was well. When software update told me there was a new driver available, I installed it and things still worked. I'm able to print, scan, and all the printer is supposed to do without a hitch.

Scanning problem with HP Photosmart C6180

Since the upgrade to 10.6 my HP C6180 multifunction printer is not working as a scanner from Adobe Acrobat Pro 9
I select from the acrobat menu:
File
CreatePDF
From Scanner
in the "acrobat scan" window Scanner: shows "Please select a device" but there is nothing in the drop down list!
This means that i can not scan a document to PDF from within Adobe Acrobat pro. I can scan through preview but preview does not provide the same features that Acrobat Pro does.
Any Ideas? I have re-installed the adobe software but no joy...

Had scanning problem after uploading Snow Leopard -
This will fix your problem!
Scanning with the software included in Mac OS X 10.6
New with Snow Leopard, the Scanning interface to these HP Inkjet All-in-One devices is now built into Snow Leopard and supported with the Apple Image Capture application. There are three ways to perform scanning from your HP All-in-One:
Preview program
Image Capture program
System Preferences > Print & Fax
Important: After you open the scan interface, it is important to select the correct mode ( Flatbed or Document Feeder ) for the source of the scan image. Your HP All-in-One may have an Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) or a flatbed lid. By default, Document Feeder will be the automatically selected Mode for any devices that have an ADF. You must select Flatbed if you want to scan directly from the glass flatbed and not the Document Feeder.
For more information about Scanning and Image Capture, open the Help menu from Mac OS X 10.6 and type in your question.
Method one: Scan from the Preview application
Click the Apple Preview icon in the dock to open the Preview application.
From the Preview File pull-down menu, choose Import from Scanner .
Choose the HP Photosmart, Officejet, or Deskjet All-in-One.
The scan interface opens. Click Show Details to view settings and options.
Method two: Scan from the Image Capture application
In the Applications folder, select and open Image Capture .
In the list of devices on the left, click your HP All-in-One.
Networked devices appear in the Shared list.
The scan interface opens. Click Show Details to view settings and options.
Method three: Scan from Print & Fax > Printer browser
From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences .
Click Print & Fax .
In the list of printers on the left side of the dialog, select the HP All-in-One to view the options in the Print & Fax window.
Click the Scan tab, and then click Open Scanner .
The Printer Browser window appears.
Click the Scan icon at top right of the toolbar to launch scanning.
The scan interface opens. Click Show Details to view settings and options.
Important Gotcha: If the Scan or Print icons do not appear in the Printer Browser window toolbar, you need to delete the current HP printer queue and add a new one, as follows:
Close the Printer Browser window to return to the Print & Fax preference pane. Or, go directly to the System Preferences > Print & Fax pane.
Select your HP printer in the list on the left.
Click the - sign at the bottom of the list to delete the product from the list.
Click the + sign at the bottom of the list to add the product back to the list.
Select your HP printer, and then click Add to create a new print queue.
The next time you open the Printer Browser window, the Print and Scan icons should appear in the toolbar, providing access to Image Capture.

Lightroom 4. I have a large image (scanned) 10,000 X 14000 which does not Render when I try to print or export. Regular sized images work fine.

In Lightroom 4:Mac OS 10.6.8. I have an expecially large image (scanned) which is 10,000 X 14,000. I have edited it but when I try to print or export the image, it starts to "Rendering Page" but gets stuck and is unable to complete the task before it times out. When I use normal sized photo images (raw), it works fine. I suspect the problem is related to the size of the file. Is there some way I can reduce the size of the image while in Lightlroom? Or is there any other solution?

You originally posted on a thread that really wasn't related to your problem, so I branched the discussion.
Check the Windows System Event Viewer to see the details of the crash, most importantly the name of the faulting module.
Most crashes on Open or Save are due to OS bugs (especially on MacOS) or bugs in third party extensions to the OS open and save dialogs.

HP 6500 AIO printer scanning problems.

I recently upgraded my Mac OSX software to Snow Leopard. Now the scanner part of my HP printer no longer works. I'VE SCANNED MANY TIMES PREVIOUSLY. I tried to scan today and got messages to the effect, no scanner options, scanner was not connected to the computer, scanner not found, no scanner selected; the scanner is not initialized...
I've done the following: tried to get help from HP- they said as long as my driver sw was up to date (which it is) i should contact Apple. I tried to add the scanner - didn't work; setup printer again - didn't work; setup profile for scanner - didn't work; read thru scanner help topics on apple support - didn't help. What's going on and how do i fix it?
thx.

It doesn't install a driver version 2.7. It does in fact install for your printer driver 3.1.1. In as much as you already have that driver installed there is some other reason why you are having issues. Contact HP to resolve the scanning problem.
There is third party scanning software which is much better than HP's. Check compatibily with VueScan.

Image Scan in Oracle Forms 6i

Dear all,
I need help to scan image from Oracle Form Builder 6i and store the image location in the oracle 9i database.
Here important issue is we just store the image location in the database not the image.
We'll store the images in a storage device and store the location path in the database. And retrive the image from storage device using the path.
For example: User Scan the image using Form builder 6i then save the image like 1001-DPS-1.jpg in the default location like D:\Image\.....
And in oracle 9i database data save like : 1001 DPS 1 D:\Image\1001-DPS-1.jpg User_Name Sysdate
Data save automatically in the database when image scanned and saved in physical drive. This is our main purpose.
Is it possible to solve this task using Oracle 9i and Developer 6i??? Need all of your urgent help. Please help me in this regard. Thanks in advance.
Mamun

My iMac 27" Late 2012 has Image Persistence Problem

I'm wondering what to do about an annoying image persistence problem on my 27" late 2012 iMac. I got the iMac just a few days ago. Monday actually, so 4 days ago.
It's the 3.4GHz i7, 8GB, NVIDIA 680MX 1TB fusion drive model.
Overall it has become the love of my life, but the image persistence thing is getting harder to ignore. This happens after only a few minutes of use. If I follow Apple's instruction on dealing with LCD image persistence, I can make it go away for a while, but it comes back very quickly.
It is extremely noticeable on a plan dark background. It looks as thought he screen has been left on for a very long time with the same windows open, but it occurrs in less than 5 minutes of use with nothing more intense than a bit of web surfing.
I've read that this is happening a great deal on these new iMacs, particularly teh 27" machines.
While the problem seems to be known to those of us afflicted I don't know if Apple has acknowledged an issue or not.
Here is a sample of the complaints: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1509571
I can make the ghost image vanish by bringing up an all white scree for a minute or so or using LCD Scrub.
I'm wondering if anyone else has foun a solution other than asking for a replacement computer, which Apple seems to be granting on this issue?

Avoiding image persistence on Apple (IPS) displays
Avoiding image persistence on Apple LCD displays
If you cannot resolve the issue yourself, then return the computer for a replacement. You may do this freely within 14 days from date of purchase, so don't delay.

Adobe Acrobat 8 Scanning Problem with Brother 7820N

I am all of a sudden having a scanning problem utilizing Adobe Acrobat and my Brother 7820N printer/scanner. It was working just fine scanning into PDF format in Adobe when I was on the Tiger OS. I just upgraded to Leopard about a month ago and now my scanner is not working, I can print to it no problem, but when I try to initiate a scan through Adobe it crashes and I get the following error message: "the application acrobat quit unexpectedly".
Can anyone provide me with any advice on how to fix this problem?
Thank you.

Problem: codebase, jar and image reloading problem please help!

Hi Java Gurus,
I have written an applet that extends JApplet for viewing webcam. In order to reduce the download time I put my classes into a doorcam.jar file. The following is my <applet> tag in my html file.
<applet code="CameraApplet.class"
archive="doorcam.jar"
codebase = "webcam/classes"
width="375" height="475">
<param name="imagePath" value="http://judge/webcam/images">
<param name="webCamImage" value="door.jpg">
<param name="COMPort" value="COM2">
<param name="frameRate" value="10"> 
<param name="host" value="judge">
</applet>
The fist problem is that my class file does not get loaded from the jar file if i provide the "codebase" attribute as above. Instead the browser load every single class file from the webserver. This has some problem too. Coz the browser sometimes just thorough NullPointerException or ClassNotFoundException. After much of debugging I found out that the problem is the IE browser which seldom fails to load classes or image file from the server. If i referesh the browser the applet and all its classes loaded successfully and runs smoothly. This behaviour never occurs when running with "appletviewer".
I wanted all my classes to be loaded from my jar file. After much of trial and error I found out that if i remove "codebase" attribute the browser loads the classes from my jar file and applet loads very fast. This is where the second problem comes in. The browser does not reload my webcam image file so that the webcam become alive with live images, like before.
If I run on "appletviewer" everything works fine my web cam is displayed properly. But in IE browser the image does not get reloaded when I refresh my image to give live to my webcam display. The refresh method is given below.
private void refresh(final URL url) {
Image webCamImage =getImage(url);
webCamImage.flush(); // flush out the previous image
webCamImage = getImage(url); // get a new image
webCamImageIcon.setImage(webCamImage); webCamImageIcon.paintIcon(webCamLabel, webCamLabel.getGraphics(), 15, 15);
When I add the "codebase" attribute back, the image gets reloaded for every refresh() and everything works fine. But the classes are also loaded from the server. And occasionally also suffers Class loading and image loading problem. As I presented earlier, when I do refreshing in the browser everything gets loaded and the applet function correctly with web cam displaying very well.
The problem is so strange that I could not find any way to solve it.
It would be a great help to me if somebody provide me some work around to the problem.
I tested on Windows 2000, Windows XP, IE 5.5, IE 6 with J2SDK 1.4.0.
Thank you all very much in advance.
best regards,
Judge

Thank you so much for the suggestions. I did tried the way u suggested. The problem still the same.
I think its the problem between IE browser and Java Plug-in.
I which SUN would find these incompatibilities and solve these problems.
I even tried using java SDK and plug-in 1.4.1 it even worst. It can't even load an applet. And it does not show any loading messages nor any error messages. It just show a cross sign on the upper left coner.
I would be so glad, if Sun would try to eliminate the inconsistancies such as caching, loading, initializing etc between browser and its Java plug-In. For example, applets behave well in appletviewer and behave unpredictably in browser environment.
I have seen so many people in the forums with all sorts of problems because of this.
Right now I m desperately looking for work around to my problem.
If somebody would provide me with the solution to my problem it would be a great help to me.
thank you all so much.
best regards,

SSRS indicator image display problem!!

Hello ALL;
I am having problem with displaying indicator image in DEV report manager. but same rdl works in QA environment. Both server has SP1 installed. Any Idea? Appreciate for your help. Thanks,

Hi Techchi,
Based on the limited information, I cannot figure it out for this issue. As per my understanding, I think this issue can be caused by the browser that run the report manager. If you use IE explorer to render the report, I suggest that you can try to run
it in compatibility mode. If you are using another browser, I recommend that you should use IE explorer to render the report to check the issue again.
If this issue still exists, in order to solve the problem more efficiently, I need to clarify some information.
Are all reports with indicator image cannot render well in DEV report manager? Or just this one report?
What is the phenomenon about the indicator image display problem? Could you please post a screenshot about this?
It is benefit for us to do further analysis. Thank you for your understanding.
Thanks,

Having a image alignment problem using clearbox

Hi,
I'm having an image alignment problem. I cannot figure it out. I'm using the clearbox - lightbox dreamweaver widget. Using Dreamweaver CS6.
Actual page located here. Any help would be appreciated.
http://dirtysouthink.com/gallery/dustin2.html

This has very little to do with Dreamweaver. DW is merely a tool to assist you in building a web site. It is purely a matter of styling (CSS).
When I look at the structure, I see
BODY-CONTENT (width: 490px)
     GALLERY (width: 452px)
          CONTAINER (width: 500px)
               ITEM (width: 150px)
From this I can deduce that:
GALLERY will fit inside BODY-CONTENT
CONTAINER will NOT fit inside GALLERY or BODY-CONTENT
ITEM will fit three times into CONTAINER
To start with, I would reduce the size of the CONTAINER so that it fits inside of its parent. Then I would adjust the width of the ITEM so that only two of them fit inside of the CONTAINER.

New Feature "Image scan"

Hello Nation,
Have any of you looked already looked into the new "Image Scan" functionality of Async OS release 6.3?
If so, what are your experiences? (Mainly: what system recourses does it consume)
The function sounds very promising, I'm curious....
Steven

Hello Karl,
Thank you for this clear answer. As you described the technology, I think it will fit perfectly to the needs of our "big brother" department.
Currently they get a copy of every message that contains an image, sound file or movie. They check (at least, they say they do) every message for non professional/harmful content.
Currently the number of images entering their mailbox is overwhelming; maybe a tool like Image Scan can reduce the load and forward only the images with a serious amount of "skin-color".
A couple of points here:
1) IIA only scans images, not movies or sound files.
2) If they really are checking every image, IIA will not replace that. We don't even recommend quarantining based on the IIA score, because there will be False Positives. The best way to use it is to create Content Filters that trigger based on IIA score, but just insert a header (or bcc to a special mailbox). Then run a report periodically and see who is at the top. of the list. Those are the people who warrant closer attention.
Are there any figures on the load the image scanner will add to the system? We recently replaced our four C600's by C650's because the C600's where running on 100% CPU constantly. I don't think I can request for more budget to add machines within coming two year.
best regards Steven
Internal and Beta testing found very minimal impact on a standard mail load. This will depend on what your mail flow is like, what kinds of services you are running, and how many messages have images attached.
If you are load balancing your 4 systems, you can enable IIA on one or two of them and see if there is much performance difference between the ones running IIA and the ones that aren't.
The best way to find out is talk with your sales team about getting a demo key. They can guide you through the setup and creating reports.

How to solve the image display problem in the iTunes Store

Hi guys!
I just want to give a work-around for all of you having the image display problem in the iTunes Store. In my case only the square images in the slider sections won't load:
I had this in my last W7-installation and got it again in W8 after the first few weeks.
There are a lot of reports about this problem out there and adhoc solutions like 'clear the cache' or 'reinstall and drink ice tea' that do not work. It is obviously a file request error. It is all about finding out which server addresses get blocked by your computer.
Solution: Go to your firewall and your Anti-virus-program. There must be a whitelist option. In Kaspersky, check the web-options, the banner-options and the firewall-options, because the all have whitelists. The following addresses have to be whitelisted:
*.apple
*.mzstatic.apple.com.akadns.net
*.mzstatic.com.edgesuite.net
*.da1.akamai.net
*.itunes.apple.com
se.itunes.apple.com
upp.itunes.apple.com
ax.init.itunes.apple.com
xp.apple.com
*.mzstatic.com
client-api.itunes.apple.com
www.apple.com.edgekey.net
www.isg-apple.com.akadns.net
Press Ctrl + R in the iTunes Shop then and browse throught the music sections. All images should be displayed correctly now.
If not, there might be more Apple servers involved in your case. You can find them by running a DNS sniffing tool like the DNS query sniffer by Nirsoft or Wireshark.

Phone restarting randomly could be loose battery. Tighten by putting a small strip of electrical tape on the back edge.
THE BITTERNESS OF POOR QUALITY, LINGERS LONG AFTER THE CHEAPNESS OF PRICE, IS SOON FORGOTTEN.

Hello,
I think you answered the question yourself. You upgraded from Tiger to Leopard and now the scanner isn't working as it should.
You need to update the Brother drivers. Go to their web site, download and install the software, run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select FirstAid, then click: Repair Disk Permissions. Quit DU when it's finished and reboot.
Since you are trying to scan into Adobe software, there might be a TWAIN driver necessary to update.
