MF4350d won't complete scanning a page

Machine used to work fine, now it will not complete scanning a single page thru the ADF. Page starts scanning, percentage gets up to 65%, then the page is ejected. If there are more pages, they're all pulled through quickly and the percentage stays the same. It finally times out and gives a "cannot communicate" error. I can print to it just fine even after the error occurs. In order to run Tool Box again, I have to reboot the computer (XP). Can copy pages OK.  I've made no intentional changes to the system.
Is this a printer problem? A Tool Box/driver/XP system problem? Any suggestion? The main feature that attracted me to the printer was automatic scanning. Without that, it's just another printer.

Hi beandk.
I will be glad to assist you.
There appears to be a communication error between the printer and the computer.  May I have you perform the troubleshooting steps below to resolve the issue?
1.  Disconnect the printer from the computer, and then plug the printer into another open port on the computer.  Perform the scan again and verify if you experience the same error.
2.  If the error persists, please change the USB cable.  Although printing may be fine, scanning uses a two-way communication and the information from the MF4350d is not being returned to the computer.
I hope this information is helpful to you.  If the issue persists, after performing the steps above, please contact us at 1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666).

  • HP Envy 4501 won't scan multiple pages into a single document

    My HP Envy 4501 Printer won't let me scan multiple pages into a single pdf document.
    I already made sure that the checkbox "Create a separate file for each scanned page" is not checked under the file section in advanced settings.
    After I scan the first page, I do not get a screen with a + (plus sign) that is supposed to allow you to scan additional pages into the same document.
    Is there any way that I can get a fix/update for my HP Envy 4501 Printer software that would show the screen with the + (plus sign) that allows you to scan additional pages into the same document after you scanned the first page?
    At this point, if I don't get this problem fixed soon, I'm about ready to return my HP Envy 4501 Printer back to the store I bought it from so I can get my money back and buy a printer from one of HP's competitors before my store warranty runs out.
    I am very dissatisfied with HP's printer software, their support services and their web sight that doesn't work half of the time.
    Thanks,

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 won't save scanned document in searchable PDF or .rtf format

    HP Officejet Pro  8600 won't save scanned document in searchable PDF or .rtf format
    The scanner scans the document without a problem but when I select 'SAVE' and
    specify a location and file name, a system error 'The HP scan application was
    unable to save the file to the specified location'.  It will save a regular PDF file
    or a  JPG file with no problem, but trying to save an searchable PDF or .rtf file
    results in the above mentioned system error.
    This problem occurs either from HP SCAN or from the 8600 scan panel.
    The computer is running Windows XP and the I.R.I.S. OCR software is
    loaded.

    Hello TrailsEnd,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're receiving an error message "The HP scan application was unable to save the file to the specified location". I will do my best to assist you!
    First, I would recommend downloading this tool called the Print and Scan Doctor. This tool diagnoses and helps resolve common printing, scanning, and connectivity problems, including: (This information is stated here.)
    USB: Verifies that the USB connection from your computer to the HP product is working correctly.
    Network: Verifies that the network connection between your computer and your network is working correctly.
    Device Status Test : Checks for device errors such as out of paper, paper jams, carriage stalls, and paper feed issues, and then provides instructions for fixing the error.
    Driver Check : Checks for missing or corrupt driver files.
    Device Manager : Checks for problems in Device Manager that would prevent printing.
    Device Online : Checks if the product has been paused or set to offline, and then sets the status back to online if necessary.
    Print Queue : Checks for and clears pending print jobs in the print queue (a log of print jobs waiting to print).
    Port Match : Checks the port settings for the HP product.
    Device Conflicts : Checks for conflicts with other drivers, such as other printer brands.
    Ink Issues : Checks the cartridges and ink levels for issues that affect print quality.
    Print Settings : Checks and adjusts the print quality settings.
    Test Print : Prints a test page for print quality evaluation, and provides options for cleaning and aligning the printhead if necessary.
    Scan Tests : Checks the scan mechanism, drivers, and registry entries.
    Let me know if this tool fixes a scanning problem on this post. If this doesn't resolve your issue, then I am going to recommend uninstalling the software. Please follow this HP document on Uninstalling the Printer Software. 
    Once this is complete, you can perform a clean boot on your computer. I will provide a Microsoft document here to help you. This helps eliminate software conflicts that occur when you install a program or an update or when you run a program. Now, you can install the full feature software from the HP website here.
    Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great day!

  • How can detect and remove scanned white pages in an OCRd pdf file?

    How can detect and remove scanned white pages in an OCRd pdf file?

    Acrobat does not support an automated way of doing this directly. You can
    remove completely blank pages (pages that don't have any "marking
    objects"), but a scanned page does contain an image, so Acrobat won't help
    you here. There are a number of 3rd party applications and plug-ins
    available. Try a Google search for
    remove blank pages from scanned
    pdf<http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=removeblankpagesfromscanned+pdf&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8>
    This will bring up a few different solutions.
    Another way is to use JavaScript to find text. You say that these documents
    are OCRed, so if you have a blank page, it should not have any text on it.
    With some JavaScript, you can identify pages that don't contain text. This
    may however fail if you have a page that contains just e.g. a photographic
    image. There won't be any text, but the page is certainly not blank.

  • How do I scan multiple pages into one pdf document on a HP Envy 4501 Printer

    My HP Envy 4501 Printer won't let me scan multiple pages into one pdf document.
    I went to "Advanced Settings", clicked on "file" and made sure that the check box next to "Create a separate file for each scanner page" was unchecked.
    When I clicked the Save button it showed the page that I scanned and showed 1/1.  On the right side it had options for changing the brightness and Contrast, Rotate and Crop and "Back", "Save" and "Done" buttons, but nothing about scanning another page.
    Not to mention HP's Customer Support is useless!
    I'd appreciate any help I can get with this problem.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Hi BH,
    I see your diagram.  I just scanned something.  The screen that I'm looking at right now shows the preview page and the scroll box to the left of that just like in your diagram.  The screen does not show the + button nor does it show the red x button under the scroll box as in your diagram.  I can't see the plus sign because it is not there.
    I tried re-installing the software and drivers as you suggested but that did not have any affect.
    Thank you for trying to help me with this problem but it hasn't worked, therefore I can't mark the reply "Accept as Solution".
    I've noticed that on HP's support forum web page there is only 1 solved request for assistance.  That doesn't give me much confidence in HP.
    Please reply back to this post to let me know if there is anything else that I can try or if you know someone else at HP that can help.
    If I don't here back from you, I'm returning this HP Envy 4501 Printer to get my money back to use it to buy a printer from one of HP's competitors.
    Thanks,

  • Scanning Multiple Pages HP 8500A

    Hi,
    I want to scan multiple pages into one pdf document.  When I hit scan on the printer, it will scan and then send to my computer.  It won't give me the option to add another page to the pdf.  
    I need to know how to rectify this as I have many pages for one pdf! 
    Thank you,
    I don't use an app on my computer.  I have to manually scan the doucments.

    Hi there again,
    You should be able to load your multiple page document in the top ADF and select scan to computer. The multiple pages should scan to your computer and save as one file if you have selected the option in the printer software on your computer to scan multiple pages to one file.
    The scanning command on the printer works together with the printer software on your computer. Also, you need to have the Full Feature Driver installed on your PC.
    I hope that helps.

  • SCANNING MULTIPLE PAGES TO SINGLE DOCUMENT ON 8620 FLAT GLASS

    Does the HP Officejet Pro 8620 have the capability to scan multiple pages into a single document using the flat glass and not the auto feeder?
    Use this when I want to scan a package or any item that won't fit through the auto feeder.
    My Officejet Pro 8600 at work does by using a promptor after each page scannned that asks if there are more pages remaining to scan to same document.
    If the answer is no, do I have to return my 8620 and purchase an 8600?
    Jackimo

    Hi Jackimo,
    A such can be done by launching the scan from the HP software on your PC.
    Open the HP Officejet 8620 software and clcik on Scan a Document or Photo.
    Select the PDF option, ensure the scan resolution is  set as 300 or below and the Scan Source is set as Flatbed Glass.
    As well ensure the Show Scan Preview option is checked and click on Scan.
    Use the Plus button below the scan preview to scan additional pages from the glass, click on Save once you are done.

  • How can I scan multiple pages to one file with MG 7120

    My printer does not have ADF. How can I scan multiple pages to one file on my MG 7120?

    Hi albabynyr,
    There is a program that comes with the printer called the IJ Scan Utility that can assist you with scanning multiple pages into a single file.  To scan using the IJ Scan Utility, please follow these steps:
    1. Start IJ Scan Utility by going to your Start menu, then selecting All Programs, then Canon Utilities, then  IJ Scan Utility (folder), then IJ Scan Utility (program).
    2. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears.
    3. Click the DOCUMENT SCAN option on the left pane of the window.
    4. In the right pane of the window, locate the SELECT SOURCE field and select the DOCUMENT option.
    5. Set the color mode, document size, and scanning resolution as required in the rest of the fields shown in the window. Click DOCUMENT SCAN ORIENTATION SETTINGS... to specify the orientation of the documents to be scanned.
    6. In the SAVE SETTINGS section of the window, you will select the save format and location of the document you are about to scan.
    a.) In the FILE NAME field, specify the name you would like to give the file. By default the filename will begin with IMG; you can remove IMG and change it to whatever you would like to name the file.
    b.) In the DATA FORMAT field, use the drop-down arrow to select the PDF (Multiple Pages) option.
    c.) In the SAVE IN field, please navigate to the area where you would like the file to be saved once it is scanned in. By default, the file will be saved in the DOCUMENTS folder.
    7. Once all settings have been selected, click the OK button at the bottom of the SETTINGS (DOCUMENT SCAN) window. The IJ Scan Utility main screen appears.
    8. Click the DOCUMENT button. Scanning starts. After a page has scanned, the screen to continue or end scanning appears. If you have more pages to scan, place the next page on the platen and click Scan.  Do this each time a page has completed scanning.  After the last page has been scanned, click Exit. Scanned images are saved in previously selected folder location specified in the SETTINGS... window. Click the CANCEL button to cancel scanning if needed during scanning.
    Hope this helps!

  • Scan multiple pages into a single PDF document?

    How can i scan multiple pages into a single multipage PDF file?
    I've seen similar questions posted, but I haven't found any good answers. The only advice i saw was to scan each page as a separate PDF document, then merge them into a single PDF using third-party software.
    Obviously, i don't want to have to do that.
    I can't believe that there really is no way to do it using the existing HP print/scan utilities provided with the hardware.
    My printer/scanner is the "HP Photosmart 5514 e-All-in-One Printer - B111h", and i'm running Vista (64-bit) on an HP Pavillion notebook.
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    From the HP Scan software (Start > Programs > HP > HP Photosmart 5510 Series > HP Scan) select PDF and ensure the resolution is 300 DPI or lower.
    Ensure the Show Scan Preview option is checked and click on Scan.
    Once scanning the first page completes, place the next page on the glass and click the plus button below the scan preview...
    Once you are done click on Save.

  • HP LaserJet P2055dn Printer won't print the last page of documents & envelope problem

    My HP LaserJet P2055dn Printer won't print the last page of documents until i send another document, then it will print the last page of the previous document, but omit the last page of the current document.  I need to keep printing a blank page or any other page to get my previous documents completely printed.  Also, the envelopes print with large rectangular boxes on them and no address (I don't know if this is a result of the previous stated problem or not - it started happening at the same time) I use the envelope feature in Microsoft Word 2010.  I never used to have either of these problems - didn't make any changes to the system or add any software to the computer, so I know it's not that.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

  • Safari update to 5.1.5, on snow leopard, now safari won't open any web page.

    Just installed Safari update to 5.1.5 and now Safari won't load any web page. Running snow leopard on an iMac.  How do I fix, or revert to previous version of Safari that did work, keeping in mind, can't access internet on that computer since Safari won't load a web page (Firefox, Chrome, Opera have never worked on that computer, although Firefox worked fine until I upgraded OS to snow leopard).

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.
