Rosetta and scanning

Hi;
I have a power mac 2X's 3GHz Quad core Intel-Xeon.  I'm using the Adobe Creative Suite 4 using Photo Shop CS4 and I'm trying to scan in images.
(I did the goodies thing  ) for the TWAIN plugin but, It doesn't show up when I try to import but it's in the Plug in's folder of PS.
The GREAT minds at Adobe says that I have to use the Rosetta mode. When I go to the "get info"  I don't have a check box for Rosetta.  Apple says Sometimes, you might have a Universal version of a graphics or Internet application on your Intel processor-based Mac that you want to run via Rosetta instead of running natively. Because some Universal applications may continue to rely on existing plug-ins, you may sometimes need to force a Universal application to run in Rosetta to accommodate the plug-in. Check with your plug-in manufacturer(s) to see if Universal versions are available, too.
Adobe is blaming Apple,  Apple is blaming Adobe.  In the mean time I can't scan!  What should I do???

Actually it is neither Apple or Adobe's fault. You could start Photoshop in Rosetta but you would take a massive performance hit. The problem is the scanner manufacturer have not made their plugin Universal. so the only way to get it to work would be to fire up PS in Rosetta.
But using a $1000 application as a scanner interface is a bit silly. Since you can't do anything in Photoshop while you are scanning. So you should do what savvy Photoshop users have been doing for years now. Use the stand alone software that came with the scanner or buy VueScan or something similar.
Now you can scan and work at the same time.

  • HP Solution Center stopped working and HP Print and Scan Doctor cannot find my OJ4680

    HP Solution Center came installed on my HP G60 notebook with Windows 7 premium 64 bit.  It suddenly stopped working--it says it cannot run because the device installation is not complete.  If I open HP Sup0ort Assistant it says the OJ4680 is ready and it is designated as the default printer in Printers and Devices but when I try to run HP Print and Scan Doctor it cannot find it--it can only find OJ4500 which I use when I'm in my second home.  Please help me fix this as at this point I can't print or scan. 

    Thanks for the help and quick response.  I haven't tried your solution yet because before I received your instructions I updated the drivers again and it appears to be working though I've had a message since then that I couldn't scan because my device was offline which was not true as I had just printed a document.  I used HP Print and Scan doctor and followed the steps which included turning the device off and unplugging it for 60 seconds.  I can now copy, print and scan but I still have the yellow triangles with exclamation points on both my PC and all in one.  I'm not sure I want to do more at this point since everything is working well at the moment. BTW my laptop is set for automatic updates by HP and Microsoft, why didn't they keep this problem from occurring?

  • A "HP Twain Scan" function in the "Print and Scan Doctor" app - Solution?

    Frustration!! Why can't I get the scanning portion of subject printer to work on my laptop Windows 7 (64-bit)!?? I've tried the Print and Scan Doctor several times, and the same dysfunction says "HP Twain Scan" whatever that means or is? I've pulled out the cords, all of 'em, and it still not helping.  Did I purchase a printer that is not compatible with my laptop? As far as the scanning portion is concerned, or what?  I can print OK, both from website/emails and my own documents.  I do a lot of scanning (photos mostly), and so this will be a sad problem.Hoping someone out there in techland can give me a solution. Thanks!

    Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
    Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
    I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
    Thanks for the advice, Bee

  • Possible to pan and scan HD video with your home editing software?? (HD - SD size)

    Hi, using Premiere Elements 7 on WinXp and also on Win 7.
    I wonder if it's possible for us to do a pan and scan type process with our HD video? I ask because someone gave me some footage from the weekend where the composition was way too wide and large and I'd like to save the video, composed better, an SD quality.
    Given the pixel resolution it should be possible. I know that's how they convert 35mm film to fit TV, but when it comes to video, can Premiere do it?
    I can crop video in premiere but it will save the video at the same resolution, but all pixelized and looking wonky. How would I save 1080i video pan and scanned to 720 (p) or regular SD (640) which will still look decent on Youtube.
    Here is an example (note, I also squeezed the footage to 97% horizontally first)
    Can anyone give a tutorial?
    Thanks

    If it's hi-def video, you can import the video into a project set up for standard DV.
    Before you use Get Media to get the video, go to Edit/Preferences and uncheck Scale to Frame Size.
    When you place your video on the timeline, it will be much larger than the Monitor, and you will only see a portion of it. You should be able to use Crop and Scale to get just what you need and still have many pixels to spare. (And don't forget to press Enter to render the video before you judge its quality.)
    Note that, depending on what format of video your original footage is in, you may need to work with the interlacing maybe reverse the field dominance. So I'd do a short test run and output to see how it looks before I committed to a full-length project.

  • HP laserjet m1536dnf mfp print and scan is very slow

    Hi Sir/Madam,
    HP laserjet m1536dnf mfp print and scan is printing and scanning slow on network. Sometimes scan is not work. That's why I have to reinstall the printer driver. So how to increase print speed?
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi riz1_4444,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I understand the printer is printing and scanning slow on the network.
    I will be happy to help you.
    Make sure printer is connected directly to a wall outlet.
    Try printing a hardware test on the printer to see if it prints slow or not.
    Printing a Configuration Report. Select Method one: Print a Configuration Report from the printer control panel.
    I would restart the router to see if this will resolve the issue.
    Try another Ethernet cable.
    If you are still having issue then test the printer by connecting the printer to the computer by a USB cable to see if it is something on the network that is causing it to slow down.
    Hope this resolves your issue for printing slow over the network.
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

  • HP LaserJet Pro M1536 just copy and scan lines

    HP LaserJet Pro M1536 just copy and scan lines
    Hi, I have a problem with the multifunction suddenly.
    When I make a photocopy or when I scan to PC, both the ADF glass, leaving only the lines without any image of the sheet that I'm scanning. If mold from windows instead working normally.
    What might be?
    Greetings.

    HP LaserJet Pro M1536 copia e scansiona solo righe
    Salve, ho un problema all'improvviso con la multifunzione.
    Quando faccio una fotocopia oppure quando scansiono verso il pc, sia dal vetro che dall'adf, escono solo delle righe senza alcuna immagine del foglio che sto scansionando. Se stampo da windows invece funziona normalmente.
    Da cosa può dipendere ?
    Saluti.

    Hi Opp1,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I understand you are unable to reinstall the printer software.
    I will be happy to help you.
    The print spooler is part of the Windows operating system and if it doesn't stay running the printer software won't install or print.
    You could try the following steps to see if this will resolve the issue.
    Normally with spooler problems the first thing to do is to clear the print queue.
    Open a Run window (Windows Logo key+R), type cmd and press Enter.
    Now type these commands, which are in capitals for clarity:
    NET STOP SPOOLER and press Enter
    DEL %SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\PRINTERS\*.* and press Enter
    NET START SPOOLER and press Enter
    EXIT and press Enter
    If you are still having issues with the print spooler stopped then right click on the start button, left click on explore, open the windows folder, open system32 folder, open the spool folder, open the printer's folder, then delete everything on the right window.
    Then go back and try and start the print spooler again.
    Run a full uninstall of the printer software. Disconnect the USB cable.
    To uninstall from CD:
    Go start and select computer.
    Right click on the CD for the printer and left click open in a new window.
    Double click on uninstall.
    Uninstall printer from the C Drive.
    Go to start, computer, c:, windows, program files or program files x86, HP, printer name. Double click uninstall. Restart the computer.
    Check to make sure the print spooler is running.
    Ran the installation again. Don't connect the USB cable until prompted.
    If the print spooler stops again you will need to contact the computer manufacturer to resolve this issue.
    Hope this helps.
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
    Have a great weekend!

  • HP Print and Scan Doctor can't connect to HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus.

    My HP Officejet Pro 8600 has been working perfectly for the last 1+ years, up until 2 days ago, when it stopped printing jobs submitted from my Windows 7 desktop.  I've tried all manner of repair, thus far unsuccessfully, including
    resetting the IP on both the printer and the desktop
    trying wireless connection, no difference
    reinstalling drivers and firmware
    hard-resetting the printer
    repeatedly trying to print test pages
    repeatedly restarted the Print Spooler, and rebooted the desktop
    attempting to troubleshoot using HP Print and Scan Doctor.
    Additional facts:
    My wife can use the printer from her work laptop without any problems.
    I can ping the printer from the desktop at its static IP, so IP-level connectivity isn't the problem.
    The standard print queue view indicates "(Offline)" in the title bar, and attempting to print a test page from the Properties dialog submits the page, then Status flips to "Error - Offline - Printing", despite the fact that the Properties dialog shows no checkmark next to Use Printer Offline menu entry.
    The Doctor finds the printer at its IP and acknowledges that it's installed, and when asked to Fix Printing, says that everything checks-out okay with the product.  However, when I ask it to Test Print, it comes back with a pop-up stating it's Unable to Communicate with Printer; it suggests "Click Help for additional assistance information.", but there's no Help button.
    If you've experienced this printer in a similar firmly-wedged state, I'd deeply appreciate hearing how you fixed it.
    Thanks,

    Hi @Sunshyn2005
    I timed-out waiting for advice, and contacted HP Support, who helped me get the printer back on the air.  While we didn't manage to root-cause it, in the course of trying various things, the tech disabled Norton 360's firewall, which then allowed connecting to the printer, and restoring print service, which remains up after re-enabling the firewall. 
    The timing of the disconnection doesn't neatly corellate with any Windows updates.  My own theory is that it was caused by a 360 update, but am unable to find a smoking gun, since 360 doesn't provide update history.  The exact root-cause remains a mystery, but at least provides another thing for folks to try should they find themselves in similar straits.
    I really appreciated your hint that a Windows update might be the root cause, and your pointing out how to review the history and back-out updates: this morning, I found that Windows had installed a batch of updates overnight, and found that no browsers worked.  Using your advice, I rolled back the update, restoring browsing.
    Thanks,

  • HP Instructions for Printing and Scanning Under Snow Leopard

    HP has posted instructions for Snow Leopard users for printing, faxing, and scanning on HP printers.
    While the scan button (and installed HP printer management software) may no longer work on the printer, you can still scan if you go through the Preview or Image Capture programs on your Mac to access the scanner.
    I tried it on my HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless printer that was unable to scan after upgrading to Snow Leopard, and it worked.
    HP has posted the printer instructions for Snow Leopard at: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01846935&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en &product=1153481
    Hope this helps some of you. It worked for me.

    You can download VueScan as a trial without paying for it unless you want to.
    As for enabling scanning with Image Capture you need the proper driver. As a start I would ask HP's tech support if they can help you get it working. Apple does not write any printer or scanner drivers. They are provided by HP or other printer manufacturers. Apple packages them for distribution with OS X. It's quite possible that the current scanner driver for your model isn't compatible with SL.
    If you understand modern technology then you have to appreciate the fact that most things become obsolete within months. This is certainly true of computers and their peripherals. Software developers cannot keep up the pace with the hardware. A two year old printer has been obsolete for more than a year already. Unless HP still sells and manufactures that model, they tend to lose interest with them. SL only arrived in October 2009 which is after your model was released. So HP needed to provide compatible drivers. If they have then perhaps the problem with yours is related to something else, but I don't know what that would be beyond completely uninstalling all the HP software then letting the OS figure out what to install. SL automatically discovered both my printer and scanner, then installed the drivers for each.

    You would need to get the IP address of your printer then manually add a network print queue.
    To get the IP address, on the control panel of your printer, press on Setup > Network Setup > TCP/IP > View/Set IP address.

  • Trouble Printing or Scanning? Try the HP Print and Scan Doctor

    Are you having trouble when you try to print or scan with your Deskjet, Officejet, or Photosmart printer or All-in-One?  
    Does your print job get “stuck” and never come out of your printer?
    Are you getting an error message when you try to scan?
    HP suggests that you download and run the HP Print and Scan Doctor. While not all types of printing and scanning communication problems are addressed with this software utility, many common problems are resolved. This utility can be used to troubleshoot and in some cases directly fix common connectivity problems experienced with many of HP’s desktop printers and all-in-one devices when used on Windows XP, Vista, Win 7, and Win 8 systems (administrator privileges are necessary in order to run the utility).
    If the HP Print and Scan Doctor detects missing or incompatible software parts, the utility will offer to uninstall the current parts so that a subsequent reinstall process will go smoothly.  The uninstall / reinstall process usually resolves printing and scanning connectivity issues with a minimum of further fuss.
    Get it here:  HP Print and Scan Doctor
    Please Give HP Your Feedback!  If you use the HP Print and Scan Doctor, HP would like to hear from you afterward  – there’s a survey link built right into utility and it only takes a minute or two.  Your ideas on how to improve the Print and Scan Doctor help HP design new features and enhancements for all of our customers.  Thanks for taking the time to respond.
    Do you have a networked printer?
    If your printer is network connected rather than connected via USB, you may be experiencing network related connectivity issues.  Any network connectivity issues must be addressed first.  The HP Print and Scan Doctor will also check for and help you resolve network issues that previously required a separate utility (the HP Network Diagnostic Utility).  With the HP Print and Scan Doctor this is no longer necessary!  HP has combined all features of the Print Diagnostic, Scan Diagnostic, and Network Diagnostic utilities into our next generation utility!
    The HP Print and Scan Doctor runs on Windows XP, Vista, Win 7, and Win 8.  You will need administrator privileges in order to run the utility.

  • HP Photosmart 6520 Server Connection Error: -1: Apps don't work and Scan to email doesn't work

    My HP PhotoSmart 6520 has a persistent error to connect to the server and therefore Apps and Scan to email doesn't work.
    I have manually set DNS to 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4, I have installed latest driver on my Macbook pro, I have updated firmware, but still not working. Weird is also that in my ePrintCenter, the Apps I see there are not in line with thos visible on the printer.
    Detail is that I have set up the printer on a Windows PC but recently changed to Mac.
    Printing, scan to Computer all works fine.
    Help! I have read a lot on forums but so far no solution for me!

    Hi Jack6520,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums.  I see that you are unable to connect to the apps and use the scan to email feature of your Photosmart 6520 printer due to a server connection error.
    First off, thank you for the very detailed information, I really appreciate it.
    To better assist you, would you please provide some additional information:
    When you set the manual DNS servers, did you also set a manual IP address for the printer?
    Have you changed routers or internet service providers recently?  Have you updated the firmware on the router? If you have an ISP-provided router, do you know if they pushed out a firmware update?
    Have you recently installed any new anti-virus/malware software?  If so it may have blocked the ports the printer uses to communicate.  I’ve included a post by VisionAiry titled “Check the Anti-Virus for Blocked Ports and Timed Scans”. 
    Do you have a guest network setup? Please Print a Network Configuration page. It will let you know how many networks the printer sees. A guest network will have the same name as your network with a tag about it being the guest network.
    Previously did you customize the printer’s ePrint email address? I’m asking this because I might ask you to disable then enable the web services.  If we have to take this step you will lose the customized ePrint email address without any ability to get it back.
    What version of Mac OS X are you using? whatsmyos.com
    Are there any cables other than the power cable connected to the printer?
    Thank you.

  • Cannot make Canon PIXMA MX922 fax to work with "Windows Fax And Scan" on Windows 7, 8.1

    I have Canon PIXMA MX922 multifunction printer installed wireless on iMac OS X Mavericks. It works great but there is no fax drivers for Mac. I have Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 installed on Parallel Desktop. I am able to print and scan on these machines. I can scan using "Windows Fax and Scan" and other programs including My Image Gardens but no luck with faxing. I can send faxes using print function and chosing a Cannon MX920 series fax driver. The problem is to recieve faxes. I've connected MX922 wireless and wired with no help.
    Does anyone have the same problem? Any ideas?

    Hi Anton,
    thank you for your advice.
    In case this is going to fix itself in 25 hours I will check for the issue then. I'm gonna let you know whether the issues has disappeared.
    But it sounds to me a little bit, like you have been expecting that behaviour? Have you? Especially within a Lab it is very confusing to have test clients which appear fully functional 25 hours after the setup has been succeeded.
    I've followed your annotation and posted the log files on the Connect portal.
