My HP 8600 all in one not scanning on IMac

I set up my HP 8600 Pro all in one for my IMac and the printer prints, scan, yet I don't know how to save the scan. I saved it to my document and desktop and still not able to locate the item that was scanned. Please Help. My IMac is new OS X 10.9. I am using wireless network and that's the way I installed the HP on to my IMac.
Thank you

Hi All, I called Canon this morning..
The Tech helped me Download the MP280 Navigator Software..
My MP280 now works with Mavericks, both Scanner & Printer AOK............
Hope This Helps..............................

7520 All In One not scanning from computer

I have a 7520 all in one printer. I can scan from the printer to my computer with no problems, I can print from my computer with no problems. I have always been able to control scanning from my computer when I put a picture on the printer without any issues. The HP Photosmart icon on my desktop is there but I cannot open it. I've tried opening it from the Start Menu and I still can't open it. Now I've tried going to the HP Solutions Center and when I click on that it says it cannot run b/c installation is not complete. (I've had this printer for a almost a year and this just happened out of the blue.)
I uninstalled the printer then reinstalled it again. I unplugged my printer and my wireless router and retstarted both, all to no avail. My software is updated and I've run Scan Doctor and everything is in working order.
I simply cannot open HP Photosmart from my computer.

Hi @FinnGirl47,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that you cannot scan from the computer with your HP Photosmart 7520, and I am happy to help!
For further assistance, I will need to know: If you are using a Windows or Mac Operating System, and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos, also if the printer is able to make copies.
In the meantime, please try going through this scanning guide, A 'No Computer Detected' or 'Connection Error' Message Displays during Scanning.
Thank you for posting!

HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 2545 all in one not "scanning" properly

I just received my printer today - HP Deskjet Ink advantage 2545. I was so psyched to use the scanner, and when I finally did, I learned that this printer/ scanneer doesn't really scan docs or pictures properly - parts of the scanned docs are covered in black (see sample below). I tried several times, even cleaned the glass (even if it's new, fresh out of the box) but the same thing keeps on happening. Is this printer defective? should I return it to?

Hi @VitoCLN,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see your HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 2545 is not scanning properly, I appreciate the screenshot.
I would like you to perform a Hard Reset on the 2545 and retry the scan:
1. Unplug all cables and memory cards from the printer. Unplug the power cord, directly from the back of the printer while the printer is still turned on.
2. Unplug the other end of the cord from the power source.
3. If there is a power module on the power cord, disconnect one end and reconnect it.
4. After 60 seconds, plug the cord directly into a wall outlet (not a surge protector or battery backup as they can cause the printer to lose basic functionality over time).
5. Plug the power cord into the back of the printer.
6. The printer should automatically power back up. If it doesn't, turn it on with the power button.
7. Try making a photocopy (if your printer is an all-in-on printer) before connecting any other cables to the printer.
8. Connect any other needed cables to the printer.
Now continue here with Solution One only: Vertical Bands, Lines, or Streaks in Copies, Faxes, or Scans
Were you able to complete the scan successfully?
I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks,

Photosmart all in one - not scanning to PDF

Our photosmart premium all in one fax, scanner printer no longer scans to PDF files.
It prints ok and we can scan to photo directly from the scanner to USB and from / to the PC.
It worked perfectly well before, then started to stop several pages into a multipage scan. Then halfway through 1st page - now won't scan at al to PDF.
Any ideas? We have uninstalled and re-installed several times - no success.

Hello ZiggyCat, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!

OfficeJet J4550 All-In-One not scanning or copying; only prints from certain sites

I have a HP Pavillion Slimline 400 and my will not scan or copy, and only prints from certain sites. I have uninstalled and installed the software driver numerous times and still get a "scanner not working" message. I have also unplugged and turned off and replugged in the USB and the power cords several times. Currently, I have uninstalled the printer software, so I have no recognizable printer on my PC. Help!!

Hello bran1288,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with scanning and printing from a select few sites.
I have a few steps that we can try to troubleshoot this issue.
First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
As for printing from web pages, please make sure that you have your firewall or anti virus settings turned down as well as the Pop-up blocker disabled. If this does not resolve the issue, maybe try another web browser such as Mozilla fire fox or Google Chrome.
As for the scanning issue, so I can better assist you, please respond with which Operating System you are running:
Which Windows Operating System am I running?
Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
Please write me back when you have time and I will be happy to help.

8600 all in one not printing wireless

My 8600 printer is not printing wireless. We moved and it was set up with the new router and it printed once. It has not printed since. I have turned it off and back on. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. I did scan doctor and it told me to uninstall and reinstall. I can look at the info online after typing in the IP address and it all looked ok. I still cannot print. Please help! I am not very computer savy. I cannot print e-mails, from a web site, or word. Thanks!

Hi @mtmom , and welcome to the HP Forums!

8600 all in one not printing

First off, I am very technically challenged..My printer is connected by wireless to two computers. Both are not able to print anything. They both printed until we put a new computer in then one worked for a little while and the older one worked. Now neither works.The light on the port in the back where the ethernet wire is connected is lit at the bottom part of the port and flashes intermittintly at the top part. The connection does not snap in.Is this most likely a harware problem? Is there something that I can do as an easy test? Is replacing the port something that can be done at Best Buy or the like? The printer is 2-3 years old and we have loved it up until now...Thank you

HI ,
I noticed that you're experiencing issues when printing to your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Printer. I understand that the trouble started when you got a new computer. I would like to look into this for you today. We're looking at the possiblity that the new computer is interfering with the printer's IP Address on the Network. Let's see, if we can identify the cause. I see that you mentioned in your post, Wireless and Wired connection. How is the printer connected? (Ethernet/Wireless) Here's a document I would recommend that you try, An 'Unable to Find Printer' Error Displays for the HP Officejet Pro 251dw, 276dw, and 8600 Printer Series.
Try the HP Print and Scan Doctor to help identify and fix common problems when installing or using HP s on your home network. What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages). Note: You might need to follow this guide for both of the computers. I recommend following it to the end, and then try printing from both machines.
Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. I look forward to hearing from you. Good Luck!

Hp e4515 all in one not scanning

Hi, last time I had an issue with the printer not getting installed after which I followed your steps at forum and contacted the service centre who then promptly replaced my product with another... the replaced one installed without any hiccups and was working seamlessly printing and copying, but the scanning was not working from the beginning. I tried to scan some photographs but it always scanned them half.. now since two days it's not even scanning and just stuck with the screen showing the ring and message " scanning " .. I tried to shut down and restart the device and scan again but everytime it's giving same error... kindly help me out... this is the second printer I've replaced and it surely has put a dent in the faith I had in HP

One more thing I would like to add is that it gives the same error when I tried to make a copy.. factory reset didn't help neither printing alignment page succeeded to scan...

Why is Epson RX500 all-in-one not scanning in 10.6?

When I upgraded to new iMac with 10.6 from older G5 with tiger, the USB RX500 worked just fine for printing and even with the print utility for ink levels and head cleaning utility. Scanning, however, is another story.
I get it that in 10.6, one now selects "import from scanner" with Preview. The system shows the RX500 is available and I select it. Then I click the start button in the Print/Scan Utility window which comes up. When I do this, the scanner "wakes up" then immediately stops and an error message appears saying that there was an error scanning and the scanner disconnected. I need to re-start the Epson unit before it will see it again in Preview.
I have checked that the Apple software is up to date. Epson's support page pushes it back to Apple.

My name is Syd and I work for Epson America, Inc.
If you are using Epson Scan and this is where the issue is occurring, please go to www.epson.com/support maneuver to the RX500 printer and download the Epson Scan Uninstaller and the Epson Scan Twain driver.
Uninstall Epson Scan from you system and proceed to reinstall it. If the Epson scan does not work you may need to switch your scanning application to Image Capture. In order to work with Image Capture you will need to download the ICA driver from Apple's Software Updates.
Epson Scan Uninstaller v1.00
Intel-based Macs with OS X (v10.4.4 - v10.6.x), PowerPC Macs with OS X (v10.2.8 - v10.5.x)

HP psc 1350 all in one not scanning

I have installed all updates from hp and mac. running osx 10.56. receiving error message during scan. The appliciation hp scan pro quit unexpectedly mac osx and other applications are not affected. I have searched discussions for answer. No answers on forum. Anyone know of a fix?

Yes. There are two fixes:
1 downgrade back to 10.4.
2 buy a new MFD.
I used to have a PSC1350. Scanning went belly-up on impact with 10.5. HP's site said, in so many words, that scanning with a PSC1350 was not and never would be supported on either Leopard or Vista, and that they recommended replacing the MFD. I did exactly that: with a Brother MFC-440CN. That works, and unlike the HP, it works over a network with Mac and Windows clients without my having to jump through hoops. HP Support is to be congratulated for their new role as Brother USA's main marketing arm.

HP3310 Photosmart All-in-one not scanning

I am using OS X 10.9.5 on my Apple Macbook Pro. Whilst I can print from my laptop, I cannot scan as I used to be able to.
First of all I googled and followed the links to the HP website where I have found lots of articles - support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04510394. Here it seemed to suggest that I had to delete the printer and then readd it. So I went to the Apple/System Preferences/Printers and scanners, added my printer with the ip address, chose the IPP portico and chose the HOP Photsmart 3300 series. I then get the message "Unable to verity the printer on your network - Unable to connect to ‘192.168.1.73’ due to an error. Would you still like to create the printer?"
So I did but then I was only presented with a "Printer and Scanners" window like in step 2 without the scanners tab this time.
I am told that Apple includes the print drivers in its software updates so I cannot download the latest drivers.
I have checked the articles on this site.
Can I no longer use any function of my HP3310 except the print function?
Or can anyone recommend something that I can do to be able to use the scanner again?
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks for trying to help.
I have tried using Preview and also Image capture applications but neither can see the device, The Printer is connected to my wireless network.

HP Officejet Pro L7780 All-in-one not scanning with Yosemite

I have searched for a workaround or fix to the scanning problem I'm having. I just bought a brand new Macbook Pro Retina and have loaded the latest printer drivers for the HP Officejet Pro L7780. The printer works ok, but I can't get the scanner to work. When I try, it says: "Failed to open a session on the device."
I'm using the printer over a wifi connection.
Can anyone help with this, please?!
Thanks!
peace,

Hello,
This is to anyone else who can help I have the same problem with an Officejet 6500A Plus to the same laptop. It's ....... annoying, HP says nothing and so do Apple.

Officejet 6700 very slow to print does not scan to Imac

I just purchased a new officejet 6700 from Costco it takes at least 10 min to print if at all and does not scan to Imac the current osx is snow leopard 10.6.8 using an airport time machine as a my wireless router / backup I have charter internet with ARRIS modem model # TM502G its also very slow to run any functions in the hp utility I did notice that the home network ip and printer ip are different don't know if that is an issue or not any help would be appreciated thanx.

Hello kennethburland,
Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand your concerns with your Officejet 6700 Premium.
What program are you printing from? Do you notice this issue occur from using multiple program(s)?
Please follow this entire HP document on Slow Printing. Make sure you choose your correct operating system.
You did indicate that your printer's IP address and your home network are different. The first three numbers of the IP address should be the same, but the last number(s) should be different. Please reference this HP document on Wireless Basic.
Are you receiving any error message indicating why you are unable to scan a document to your computer?
If you are receiving a "Connection Error", then please follow this HP document here. If the scanning software isn't responding, then follow this HP document here.
Please inform me your troubleshooting steps.

Hp officejet pro 8600 all in one prints but won't scan

I have recently moved house and changed my wireless router from BT to Virgin.
I am running OS X 10.9.5
I am able to print from my mac without issue, however, it has stopped scanning. I have managed to get it to work twice on isolated instances but it won't work consistently.
I have unistalled the software and reinstalled via the HP download page but when I open HP Scan and click scan it asks me to choose which scanner - mine is selected, it then says preparing to scan and it does that for ages until it says it can't get a connection.
My printe r is a HP Officejet Pro 8600 All-in-one N911g - I am not bothered that much about scanning from the printer to the computer (I have tried to enable this option and it won't let me) I just want to be able to open HP Scan and press scan and it scan on my computer.
Any advice appreciated - thank you

Hi there @Steph390 , welcome to the forums!
I have some suggestions for you to hopefully correct the scanning issue you are having. Please feel free to reply back and let me know the results!
1. Try power cycling the network devices:
Turn off the printer and computer and unplug the router for 1 minute (do not press any buttons on the router).
Plug the router back in and wait another minute, next turn on the printer and computer.
2. Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system
3. Repair disk permissions
4. Restart your computer.
5. Re-add the printer
Once the printer is connected on the network, follow these steps to maintain the wireless connection, normally a static IP will help out quite a bit: Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection
Good luck to you

8600 all in one won't print or scan documents placed directly on glass?

I have a new Officjet 8600 All In One model N911A. I can't get it to print or scan a document placed directly on the glass. It will print and scan using the auto document feeder only.
I am working wirelessly and tried to run the HP Hardware Diagnostic Utility but it tells me the printer isn't connected to my computer. Ugh!
All I wanted to do was copy a page from a magazine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

OK, try installing this firmware. Depending on which OS you have, please select the link below:
Windows 7
Windows 8
Try to copy and scan after this update.
