Officejet Pro L 7500 connected to Dell Inspiron / Windows 7 does not scan

I have unable to scan from my L 7500 since it was installed. HP support's comment was "known problem". Not helpful. Has anyone been able to get functionality working? Thank you.

Hello BRUCEBERGER,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I would like to see if I can help get the Officejet L7700 series printer up and scanning for you. To best assist you, please answer the below questions.
How is the printer connected to the computer, USB, Ethernet or Wireless?
What happens when you try to scan, is there an error, etc?
Will the printer print from the computer?
Is the printer able to make a copy from the front panel menu?
In the mean time, run the Print and Scan Dr and let me know the results / steps it goes through in attempt to "Fix Scanning".
Cheers,
JERENDS

  • Hp officejet pro 8600 plus - connected to the wireless but AirPrint not working

    i have an hp officejet pro 8600 plus.  had it for 6 months or so.  intial setup went fine...connected to the wireless network with no problems...airprint worked instantly from all of my apple devices.  recently, in the last 3 weeks, airprint has stopped working. when i turn the printer off and turn it back on, airprint will work for about 5 minutes.  but then it stops working.  it is like the printer is losing wireless connectivity, but the wirless diagnostics show it to be connected fine.
    i have an apple airport exptreme router.  it is showing to be connected just fine to the network and i can see the printer's mac address as a wireless client in the Airport Utility.
    any ideas?

    Hi henryje,
    Sorry to hear you are experiencing these issues. I would be glad to help.
    Try changing the channel on the AirPort Extreme router to channel 11 or any channel that seem less congested.
    You can check you network channel environment by printing a Network Configuration page from the Wireless Settings menu on printer front panel. The second page of the printout will display all detected networks by the printer listed by signal strength. You can also use InSSIDer: http://www.techspot.com/downloads/5936-inssider.html
    Printers also do not support the 5GHz band, so if your network uses 5GHz only, you can disable this in the AirPort Extreme router config page.

  • Hp officejet pro 8500a - could print wirelessly previously, but now does not print documents.

    Our HP Officejet Pro 8500A was successfully networked via our wireless network to both computers in our household.  We were able to print from both, as well as IPod Touch.  We have not changed any settings, etc.; however, the printer is no longer printing.
    We are able to print a test document from the printer; however, we are receiving the following error message on the printer:
    Connection Error
    The printer was unable to connect to the server.  Check your internet connection and try again.  Would you like to retry?
    When we retry, it just brings the error message back up.
    When we check the printer status on the computers, it shows that the printer is connected, but is in idle status.
    Please advise what would be causing this issue, and how to correct it.

    Sorry that you are having a problem printing. 
    Can you print a self test page or printer status report from the printer itself?
    Do you get an error message when you try to print?

  • DELL Inspiron N5110 does not Shut Down and does not wake up from Sleep

    Hello.
    I have Dell Inspiron N5110 which cannot shut down neither in Windows 7 nor in Ubuntu Linux. I specifically booted Ubuntu Live from the CD to eliminate the possibility that  the problem is in the Windows 7. Shutdown in Ubuntu does not work either. This proves that the reason in not a BACKGROUND application in Windows that remains hanging and does not allow the laptop to shut down.
    The laptop cannot wake up after Sleep or Hibernate either.
    I have tried every solution that you advised to all the other people in the forum that have the same issue.
    1. The laptop cannot shut down in Safe Mode either.
    2. It cannot shut down even after Clean Boot Mode - all non-MS services disabled and all Startups disabled.
    3. I tried changing the Advanced Power Options of "Allow Hybrid Sleep" - both ON for "On AC Power" and "Running on battery" - no change.
    4. I tried installing the latest video drivers for Nvidia. This did not help either.
    5. Running only on battery does not change anything - still cannot shutdown.
    6. Running only on AC adapter without battery - still cannot shutdown.
    7. I tried removing the AC adapter and battery and holding the POWER button for 30 seconds to RESET the laptop - did not work.
    ATTENTION: I've been reading your forums all day and saw at least 10-15 reports of the same problem and not a single fixed case.
    8. This is why I have not tried Flashing the BIOS to the latest version - I read other people tried that and it didn't work either.
    9. I loaded BIOS default settings (F9) - still cannot shutdown.
    REMARK: Changing something in the BIOS and trying to Exit once caused the laptop to freeze and I had to Power Off by holding the button for longer.
    10. I ran DELL Diagnostics from Boot menu (F12 at startup) - no errors found.
    11. I could not locate IEEE 1394 Adapter in Device Manager to change its Power Management settings.
    Actually none of the suggestions you may give for changing something in Windows makes sense because I already mentioned that shut down in Ubuntu does not work either.
    The issue seems to be either in the BIOS or a hardware problem. But which component? Is it the CD/DVD drive?
    This is a new laptop.
    Please advice how to proceed. If you know which component fails please tell me.

    Remove the keyboard and palm rest (guide from dell shows you how) and you should see a small coin cell battery. Remove it for at least 10 seconds, then put it back in. Enter BIOS and make sure there isn't anything weird that was changed. It should work properly now. I have had this working in Ubuntu 12.04 for the last few days, with no problems.

  • Connect to Oracle Discoverer window does not appear

    Hi,
    The Web based Oracle Discoverer 4i does not work properly on my system. I first connect my Microsoft IE to the URL. One the URL there is magnifier icon. Under this icon there is a lable of "Click the image above to start".
    I click this icon and another window pup up. The top left corner of this window shows "Oracle Discoverer" title. Under this title bar are the menu items. The menu items are File,Edit,Sheet,tools, Graph & Help from left to right. The bottom left corner shows "Loading...". But the "Connect to Oracle Discoverer" window never pups up.
    If I connect my browser to another URL I can get "Connect to Oracle Discoverer " window displayed and log into database.
    What is wrong with my first server?
    Thanks for help.
    Wallace

    I'm only guessing, but I've had similar problems in a few cases with the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine. Try getting Discoverer to run with a different JVM, like Oracle Jinitiator.

  • Can connect to computer but window does not show up

    We are having issues with Apple Remote Desktop connecting to a couple of servers. Server version varies. It is happening on one server running 10.6.8 and one computer running 10.5.8 and one running 10.4.11
    When we connect to the server it appears to connect (the computer shows up in the windows menu) but the window to the computer does not show up. It is almost as if there is a no pixel window open. I have tried forcing the VNC server and ARD processes on the server but this doesn't change anything. The only solution for this problem is to restart the server and then ARD works noramlly for a while but it will eventually return to this behavior.
    Has anyone else run into this problem?

    when the issue happens, can you connect using other proticals / programs? ie VNC via connect to computer in the go menu of finder? OR ssh in the terminal to connect to the server?
    if you can ssh into the server, you could try the kickstart command to restart ARD.
    if you can't connect to the server at all. Can you ping the server? Ether way, if you go to the server , will it browse the internet?
    if you can't ping the server, are you using the Fully qualified DNS name to ping? or the IP to ping? or the server.local name to ping?

  • I have my HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 A connected to my Mac Book Pro on a Wireless network. It works and

    I have my Hp Officejet Pro 8500 A connected to my MAc Book Pro which is running Lion OS on a wireless network.  It works just fine and prints and everything.  The problem is a "HP Utility" window that pops up on my screen and says it is "connecting to device" and lists my printer.  It just runs and runs and the entire thing is gray - meaning I can't close it, cancel it, or anything. When you try to click on it, the arrow becomes the color wheel of death.   It is driving me crazy.  I have gone through settings, I have downloaded the latest drivers, I have looked in utilities, I have opened the printer folder and can't find where this thing is coming from or how to turn it off.  Please help.  And yes I have turned offf the computer and rebooted.  

    If you are using Snow Leopard or Lion and have HP software for pre-Snow Leopard (either from a CD not marked as compatible with 10.6 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard or Lion and had the HP software on your Mac before you upgraded - even if you did a standard uninstall of the old software or installed new software over the top of it) you must uninstall the software using the 'scrubber' option:
    Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller
    Click on Continue
    Highlight your device on the left pane
    Press and hold Control + Alt + Cmd keys on the keyboard simultaneously while you click on Uninstall <<<< This IS the Scrubber Option, there is no button labeled "Scrubber"
    There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    Click Continue and let it finish
    Restart your Mac
    Download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
    Now reset the printing system:
    - Sys Prefs, Print & Fax
    - Right (control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
    - Select the plus sign to re-add it. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
    If you want more features, you can download and install the Full Featured software from the "Support & Drivers" button at the top of this page, otherwise, basic printing and scanning will work without it.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g - doesn't install on Windows 8

    I upgraded my HP computer to Windows 8 Pro from Windows 7.The HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g was running fine with Windows 7, but will not install correctly  on Windows 8 Pro. I've tried reinstalling numerous times. Sometimes the installation appears to run correctly.  Sometimes it never finishes.In the best case the 8500 will print, however Solution Center will not show ink levels and will not scan.It shows the message: "The scan cannot be performed because another program or computer is using the networked HP imaging device. Try again later" and the scanning programming does not start. Sometimes, the scanning program starts without the error, but then another error prevents scanning (don't have that message). Creating a PDF with the scan to network feature from the front panel of the printer creates a pdf file of 0 bytes. When the printer is “installed” and able to print, but Solution Center is not scanning, the Windows scanning does work and the scanner passes the HP Print and Scan Doctor test – sometimes.  Sometimes the HP Print and Scan Doctor reports a registry problem when checking the scanning functions. The HP Error Reporting feature sometimes tries to send an error report to HP. The reporting program hangs at “initializing” and the error report never makes it to HP. I've been installing with OJ_AIO_P8500_A909_Full_Win_WW_140_408.exe. (downloaded twice)After uninstalling, I've used OJP8500vA909_Scrubber_14.exe - running uninstall.bat at least three times -- on some of the passes, the Install Uninstaller stops working.I've tried installing with startup programs disabled and non-Microsoft startup services unchecked in msconfig. The printer would not install using USB cable -- the installation hung (just one try).  All other attempts have been using Wi-Fi.   The printer and Solution Center work fine from other computers on the network - running XP and Windows 7. Any way to this printer working fully under Windows 8 Pro? Thanks

    My macbook pro with OS 10.6.7 'mail' program does not send my mail through the IPS wireless, I am connected to. The message is my 'e-mail is rejected by the server'. It has been working until 5 days ago. The connection doctor says I am connected and no log in required.
    After trying lots I found now in 'Airport Utility is 'unable to detect any airport wireless devises.....'
    There is no provider to be seen in airport utility and only 'rescan' is an option with no results...
    even so I am connected and can browse the net receive mail etc. and the outgoing 'mail server' is set to the internet provider I am connected to.
    Can you enlighten me what can I do I need to use my e-mail program urgently !!!
    Thanks for your help

    I'm not sure what "IPS wireless" is, but unless you have an Apple Wi-Fi base station (such as a Time Capsule, AirPort Extreme, or AirPort Express), AirPort Utility won't see anything.
    You might try defining a new SMTP server to see if that will work any better.

  • Internet Connection - Your Apple wireless device does not have a valid IP.

    I just bought an Apple TimeCapsule and set it up normally, following instructions to my Arris cable network on the Videotron provider here in Quebec, Canada. The TimeCapsule did appear as a wireless device on my MacBook Pro (after updating the AirPort software from the provided CD - as was instructed). I went through the whole installation process to obtain at the end this error:
    Internet Connection - Your Apple wireless device does not have a valid IP.
    The only provided instructions were to check the cable and then contact your Internet provider. Well it seems clear to me that if I contact my provider and say that the internet connection works fine directly on my computer, also fine through my "normal" wireless router but not with my new TimeCapsule, I won't get much of a response.
    After a lot of research, a friend indicated the solution in my case.
    You have to really reset the cable modem to convince it to start giving out IPs again.
    To do this:
    1. Unplug your TimeCapsule (possibly you might have to reset to factory defaults - see the documentation)
    2. Unplug your cable modem
    3. Reset your cable modem by pressing the reset button with a pen (or something) for several seconds.
    4. Plug your cable modem back in and let it reboot/restart - until the lights are back on.
    5. Plug in your TimeCapsule
    Everything should now work and you can restart your AirPort set-up on your Mac.
    Good luck!

    My ISP is AOL.  The service is DSL via a broadband modem.  Somewhere during the setup process there appears to be a communicatiosn issue between the Airport Extreme Base Station and the DSL modem.  When I hook the DSL modem directly to my iMac I can connect to the internet without any issues. 
    I tried the factory reset and the DSL modem reboot process described in other posts and seemed very close to success...until the internet setup step.  That is where this issue first presented itself.

  • 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.

  • My Canon MX 922 does not scan. My printer is connected via cable. Wireless doesn't work either.

    My Canon MX 922 does not scan. My printer is connected via cable. Wireless doesn't work either.  I get an error message with multiple suggestions but none of them apply to my situation.
    I am so dissatisfied with this printer.  I'm sorry I got it from Amazon because now it is a hassle to return it.  I will never buy another Canon.
    The printer menus are confusing.  I hate using it.  I loved my previous Canon which finally stopped working after many years, that's why I purchased a newer Canon model.  Never again.  Stick with cameras.
    Marcy Hotz

    This note won't be as angry and frustrated as the last one...
    Because I still had my old printer drivers and other applications on my hard drive, I think the application was trying to connect with the old printer.  I deleted all the old stuff.
    I also had several scanning applications on my drive which just confused me.
    When I used the actual Canon MX922 application, I was able to scan but could only save as JPG, TIF or BMP (and one more, I forget which).  So I did some research on the Canon site and found out how to save documents as PDF files using the Canon IJ Scan Utility.
    It works now.  So I'm satisfied, will keep this maching.  I just had to take some time, sit down and focus on the problem.
