New HP Officejet 6600 won't scan to MacBook Air

I bought new HP 6600, downloaded all the drivers set it up and it worked perfectly - for one week. I've now uninstalled and reinstalled drivers. My MacBook Air sees the printer and I watch it scan and see the text on my computer screen, but not saved in folder or in my Finder window?
Thanks to anyone who can help. My first time ever on this site.

Hello @dbvancouver and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you are experiencing scan issues. I would like to help.
I would suggest deleting the printer from your print system, using this document: Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Once you have deleted it, I would suggest verifying and repairing the disk permissions: About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature.
I would also suggest running your Apple updates: OS X: Updating OS X and Mac App Store apps
After the updates, I would recommend reinstalling the HP Officejet 6600 e-All-in-One Printer - H711a/H711g Drivers.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

HP officejet 6600 won't print

HP officejet 6600 won't resume. Msg says "paused" but cant get it to resume. I've shut it down and replugged both the computer to which it is attached by wire, and stop/started the computer. No luck. Ideas?

It won't print in black and white and HP WILL NOT ANSWER any of these requests because it's their way of stealing you money without really telling you they are. Imagine that???

How do I scan and email documents on my canon mx870? I have a MAC OS X 10.7.5 and it is connected with a usb cable to the printer. Thank you so much!

Hi, I have 10.6.8 and an HP printer so it may be slightly different but I'll give it my best shot:
Go to System Preferences.
Click on "Print & Fax"
Near the top of that page you should see "Print" and "Scan" options. Click "Scan"
A button appears that says "open scanner"
The settings are different between the different scanner models so I'm not sure what the next window will look like, but it should be pretty straightforward from there. It will scan to a JPEG image which you can attach to an email. I hope that helps! Let me know if there's anything ense I can help with.

Scan and email becomes blueish

Hi,
I tried to scan a document and do all the options: send by email, computer, memory card, USB drive. Everything is good (computer, memory card, USB drive) except send by email. The file that I received by email have blueish color when I printed it out. I wonder if this is a problem with my printer or is it because of the intermediaries (HP server?) before it reached my email.
Thank's
Enricodj

Hi Enricodj
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with scans and emails being off colour.
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.
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?
Thanks for your time.

Scan and fill form using Acrobat 6.0

How can I scan hardcopy of a form, save as PDF, open the form in Acrobat 6.0, and fill in the blanks (fields)?

Thanks Dave.
I'm aware that my 6.0 acrobat is way out of date. But I thought I created a fillable form a few years ago using it. But in that case it probably was a PDF going into the process, not a scanned form. Also, I was using vista at the time and now have win 7/64bit.
I'll try the OCR routine but your post suggests what I suspected, that I can't get to where I'm going from here.

As Acrobat 6 went out of support / obsolete many years ago you'll want to be sure the OS is compatible and the scanner software is compatible.
Use Acrobat's create PDF from scanner feature (review the Help file if needed, the Help PDF was installed when Acrobat 6 was installed).
So, you'll now have that PDF.
But, it is not yet a form PDF.
The scanner output is an image so you have an image / a picture as the PDF page content.
You may want to use Acrobat's OCR feature to provide a hidden layer of renderable characters.
Use Acrobat's form tools to build your form. As Acrobat 6 is long ago gone by I don't recall if it had a "form wizard". Check the Help PDF.
Be well...

Acrobat 8 Pro - Scan and email without saving document

Our office recently upgraded from Acrobat 6 to 8. We frequently scan and email documents to our customers around the world, but there is no need to save these documents on our computers.
In Acrobat 6 we followed these steps and were very happy....
1.Click CREATE PDF
2.Select FROM SCANNER (Acrobat scanning pop up menu then comes up)
3.Click SCAN
4.The HP scanner menu would pop up and we could make additional adjustments (quality, paper size, etc.) before clicking the scan button on the HP menu to start scanning.
5. The newly scanned documents are then shown in Acrobat and can be emailed. From this point you can also choose to save the documents to your computer, but most of the time in our particular office the documents are just for one time use and do not need to be saved.
With Acrobat 8 we are having a problem in step 3 from above. Once "scan" is clicked, we are prompted to name and save the documents we are about to scan in a desired location on our computers. Is there anyway to scan and email without saving the document in Acrobat 8? It would be a real time saver if we did not have to keep deleting these unnecessary files once they have been emailed. Your help is greatly appreciated!

To email a PDF, it would be an attachment and would have to be saved as a result. Email packages can not e-mail non-existent data.

HP Officejet 6600 won't print in black and white

So I have a HP Officejet 6600 which recently ran out of it's magenta cartridge. I knew I wouldn't be able to print in color, but when I went to the printer and set preferences to print black only it still tells me I need to replace the magenta cartridge before I can resume printing. This is extremely annoying because I start school monday and have syllabi and things I need to print out. Please don't tell me to order or go out and buy a magenta cartridge. I just need to know how to get this specific printer to work using only black ink when the color cartidges are depleted.

There are a few reasons color ink is used, even when printing black only: Some ink is used to keep the nozzles from drying out. When printing (even black only) the color printhead, attached to the same structure as the black printhead, is waving around in the air and the nozzles would clog if there were no servicing.When automatic duplex printing the front page typically has a thin underprint of color ink under the black to "set" the black ink. It is not intuitive, but this causes the black ink to dry faster, reducing the chances of smearing the ink as the page is pulled back into the printer to print the back side.Graphics are typically printed with a mixture of color ink rather than black. The color droplets are much smaller than the black droplets. The composite black (made from colors) gives visibly better grayscale graphics results. (For some drivers there is an option for printing in grayscale as "black ink only" or "High quality grayscale".) Printing in "Best" quality typically underprints balck with color to give a darker black.The pigmented black ink is not compatible with photo apper. If photo paper is detected or selected in the driver the printer will mix color ink to make black.Depending on the driver the option for "black ink only" may not be available when color ink will be needed, for example in the duplex printing case. See the document here for information on how ink is used in the printing process. In the language of that document the Officejet 6600 is an IIC printer. If you want a printer that can print with no color ink at all I would suggest something like a monochrome Laserjet, or an IPH printer such as the Deskjet 6980 or Officejet 8040a that would allow printing with the color cartridge removed compeltely.
