Scanner Error Message

I am running an OS X Version 10.9.4 MAC system. I have the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium printer connected through my WiFi network. When trying to scan to PDF from the printer's scanner I get an error message "Scan failed/ Automator could not run the workflow because one or more actions were not loaded."
Going to my System's preferences I find under "Save as PDF" under the Scan Tasks for my printer the following messages:
* The action "Scan from an HP Device" could not be loaded because it is damaged or missing necessary resources. Try reinstalling the action.
* The action "Change Scanned File Type" could not be loaded because it is damaged or missing necessary resources. Try reinstalling the action.
I have already followed "MechPilot"(HP Support Agent" posting on 07-14-2014 and resetted the printing system and uninstalling the software. Then downloaded and installed the HP-Inkjet-SW-OSX-Mavericks_v12.34.37.dmg file and non help.
If I scan from the computer, appears to scan ok. :-(

Hi B777Captain,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I understand you are running into some problems with the software for your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium and your Mac running the 10.9 OS. I see you have tried some previous recommendations with no success.
I would like you to continue with the steps listed below:

• Click uninstall.

What should I do ?
Thank you in advance

Epson scanner error message: missing file info.plist

I've been wrestling with an epson scanner/printer I got free with my mbp a year ago. The printer worked fine, but every time I tried installing the scanner drivers, I was foiled by the error message "missing file: info.plist..." I was reduced to scanning on my sloooow dell desktop at work. After a few rounds with epson support, they suggested I install the drivers on a different user account on my computer. Problem solved! It works, even on the original user account.

Just bought a Canon MG2420. I run Vista. Scanner error message

I keep getting an error message saying that the scanner is not plugged in or not connected, even though it is.
It did the preliminary print just fine.

what url?I dont know what you are talking about...
I posted the directions already about an hour ago.
Just for the heck of it: click on HELP and PLUG INS and see if CAMERA RAW is listed.
* I can almost guarantee its not even listed* but if it is, whatever, don't worry yet*
Here are the directions again.
download latest plug in for camera raw (go to adobe) go to DOWNLOADS
(go to downloads and it should be the first download they have listed)
save on desk top
open
click on the 'file' for Adobe (should be first icon listed)
then you need to put THAT PLUG IN
into your NON 64 bit PS
(it should be listed under programs as Adobe Photo Shop CS4 and Adobe Photshop (64 bit)
Click on START
COMPUTER
C Drive
Program Files
common files
adobe
plug ins
CS4
file formats
RIGHT CLICK ON PLUG IN
PUT PLUG IN ON DESK TOP *SAVE IT JUST IN CASE*
RIGHT CLICK ON PLUG IN YOU OPENED IN THE ZIP FILE YOU DOWNLOADED ON TO YOUR DESK TOP
DROP NEW PLUG IN IN FILE YOU HAVE OPEN
CLOSE
RE OPEN PS 32 BIT
AND YOU SHOULD SEE IT UNDER HELP/PLUG INS / CAMERA RAW
AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO OPEN YOUR FILES JUST FINE
AND OPEN THEM IN BRIDGE TOO
If it doesn't work, I suggest calling me and I can help you. If you are worried about me having your number just hit *67 and then 1, and then my area code and phone number* I have no alterior motives as I was simply in the same boat you are in now and I am just trying to help.
The download is a simple download, but if you put it in the wrong file, you can REALLY mess up your CS4 capabilites. which is why I specifically wanted to help you and walk you thru it step by step.
I hope I didn't leave anything out. Like I said, easier to tell someone on the phone so I can hear what it is you are looking at on your system so I can walk u thru it is all.

Get error message that scanner is not connect, yet L7680 printer works

Windows 7 installed; Officiate Pro L7680, ver 14 of software received a fatal error about 96% in; message on printer LCD says no connection found.
Then when I can get the scanner and computer to talk to each other I receive an error message that says " A required software component was not found or was improperly installed. Reinstall the HP Photosmart software hat came with the device, and try scanning again"
Doesn't v14 have all that is needed as the download web site leads one to believe or where is the something else I need to download. Only been at this for 2 days!

Hi Areege,
I noticed that you created an OSS message on this issue. That was a good idea.
There is an answer for you in OSS from yesterday.

I have a three yr old LaserJet HP M1217 nfw and was successfully copying a booklet, and on one copy the "Scanner Error 22 " message appeared and I no longer copy anything.
Where do I find the de-coding for error messages (not in manual) or is a forum member familiar with this message?

PIXMA MG5420: scanner doesn't work, get error message that driver will be closed 3 202 19

For some reason, the scanner will not work. Initially when I click on Autoscan on the PC menu the message reads that the scanner is warming up. Then I get an Error Message: Internal Error Occurred Scanner Driver Will be Closed. I don' t know what I'm doing wrong all of a sudden. There is only one computer in the network, mine, and I'm trying to scan from the 5420 via a USB cable into my HP laptop (Windows 8.1 64 bit).
Copying and printing work fine. Where do I even start?

Hi ellenrozsa,
The IJ Network Scanner Selector EX application will need to be running in order for you to scan wirelessly. If the IJ Network Scanner Selector EX is running, its icon appears in the notification area of the taskbar as shown below:
If the icon is not displayed in the notification area of the taskbar, please click IJ Network Scanner Selector EX on the Start screen. If IJ Network Scanner Selector EX is not displayed on the Start screen, select the Search charm, then search for "IJ Network Scanner Selector EX".
In the notification area of the taskbar, right-click the IJ Network Scanner Selector EX icon and select Settings....
Select your scanner or printer from Scanners, then click the OK button.
Hope this helps!

Scanner in use error message. Print and scan doctor page not found

I have an officejet pro 8500a which is giving an error message: scanner in use. it frequently does this and I reboot computer, turn off router and prnter and then turn all back on again and it usually works. This time it won't. I was directed to download the print and scan doctor but whether I enter the address in the url or click on the link I am directed to a page saying that it is not found. What else can I do besides throw this through the window?

Hello @trishdg and welcome to the HP Forums!
Which operating system is on the computer you use the printer with?
If you make a Copy (as that uses the scanner) do you get any errors that indicate the scanner is in use then?
This Print and Scan Doctor link will start the download for you right away (meaning it doesn't take you to a page, that link starts the download as soon as you click on it ) so you won't feel the need to through anything out the window
Let me know how those steps go, and we will go from there!

I have created PDF from hardcopy by using my scanner. After I run OCR option for my PDF by using Acrobat Pro 9. But "Text-to-speech" functionality of the PDF says that an error message comes up that says the page is empty when I turns on the read out loud

I have created PDF from hardcopy by using my scanner. After I run OCR option for my PDF by using Acrobat Pro 9. But "Text-to-speech" functionality of the PDF says that an error message comes up that says the page is empty when I turns on the read out loud option in Acrobat. Kindly help me to sortout this problems?

So I tried generating the same PDFs on two other computers that have Acrobat 9 Pro. Results were reproduced. The verdict is:
- complex PDF files (that is, containing cross-references, tables of contents, and bookmarks) generated by Acrobat 9.x Pro are roughly 2-5x larger than the identical file generated with Acrobat 8.x Pro.
- different PDF conversion settings make a negligable difference (less than 10% rather than 70-80%).
- using the "Reduce File Size" or "Optimize PDF" option cuts the file size roughly in half, almost always resulting in a "image downsampling mask" warning message, which requires acknowledgement (that is a problem for batch processing or automation).
- adding an Acrobat watermark to the file cuts the file size roughly in half.
- just using Save As to another filename has no effect on file size.
- generating the PDF in Acrobat 9 with links but no PDF bookmarks still results in the inflated file size.
- generating the PDF in Acrobat 9 without any links or bookmarks results in approximately the same file size as the Acrobat 8 PDF with full links and bookmarks.
It appears that Acrobat 9's manner of adding links is what's bloating the files, and in my case it's probably not related to images or image resolution/print quality. It's a shame, because Acrobat 9 seems to have made some improvements to the Review Tracker interface, and a few other bells and whistles which I haven't really gotten around to exporing yet. But unless I find a way to keep my links and the PDF file sizes comparable to what I was getting with Acrobat 8 Pro, it looks like I'm going to stay with Acrobat 8.

Scanner is busy error message

I have checked for previous jobs (none), restarted my printer and computer, reinstalled the printer, unplugged the printer from wall and printer itself, restarted the print spooler, and all of this to no avail.

How do I fix an error message of "failed to open a session on this devices" for my HP photosmart 6510 scanner?

how do I fix an error message of "failed to open a session on this devices" for my HP photosmart 6510 scanner?

Hello Kwastfamily,
It sounds like you are unable to print from your computer to your printer. I would run through the troubleshooting steps in this article:
Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3147
Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

I get an error message on my Photosmart B210 - "Scanner is busy"

1. Photosmart B210e printer/scanner
2. Mac OS 10.6.8
3. "Scanner is Busy"
4. No changes to systemr since the last time the scanner worked
5. When I try to scan from the computer I receive the above error message. When I try to scan directly from the device, it hangs. The only way I can get the device to shut down is to upplug it.

I have this same problem (exact same printer, same OS) and posted question earlier:
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Software-Drivers/Help-w-Photsmart-all-in-one-Scanner...
Since then, I have also repaired the disk permisisons, reset the printing system, checked for soft ware updates and uninstalled and reinstalled the HP software package (for like the 6th time).
I have no other computers networked to the printer. There are other internet devices using the router though.
I noticed that there are numerous posts about the "Scanner is busy" messgae, but no solutions. The HP experts seem to offer a suggestion, ask for kudos, then disappear.

I have scanned photos using an Epson V500 scanner set to scan using jpeg format at the highest quality (least compression) setting. When I try to import the scanned jpegs into iPhoto, I get an error message from iPhoto saying "The file is an unrecognized format." But if I reduce the quality setting on the Epson scanner to just slightly below highest quality, the images import into iPhoto just fine. Why won't iPhoto accept jpegs scanned at the highest quality setting? Wondering?

What scanner format settings dis you use? Are these color photos? If they are B/W did you scan as grayscale images? That could be the problem.
Are you able to open them with Preview? If so do a Save As, select full quality and save as a jpeg with a new file name. See if that file will import and work as intended.
