Scanning documents with brother printer.

I can scan but then it goes nowhere. How can I get the document that I can see was scanned to my desktop where it says it should be?

I have a Brother printer/scanner but use either Image Capture of VueScan for scanning. Does the Brother software give an option to change the destination for scans - perhaps into a folder? Any change?

HT1338 Is there a HP Photosmart printer driver update 12.16.1 that supports OS 10.7.5 that will allow me to scan documents with OCR? If so where/how do I download or get it? Thanks

Sorry, I meant to say Apple printer driver update 2.16.1 for OS 10.7.5. Is there a HP Photosmart printer driver update 2.16.1 that supports OS 10.7.5 that will allow me to scan documents with OCR? If so where/how do I download or get it? Thanks

Can I scan documents with Image Capture?

I can no longer scan documents with my HP printer now that I have Maverick. I can scan pics with Image Capture. Is there any way to scan documents with image capture or with some other software?

Don't feel bad you are not alone. I have a HP photosmart C4780. Since upgrading to Mavericks it has been difficult to use the scan feature except via image scan. I spent well over a month on the HP forums trying to discern whether or not new drivers were being developed and essentially got the run around. Very crappy service from HP. I'll not purchase one of their products again. It appears that my all in one (which I brought through the Apple Store) is obsolete. Anyone got any advice. I'm contemplating seeing how many pieces it will shatter into upon being launched from my window.

How to scan documents with HP Officejet 5610 and iMac 21.5 ?

Hello,
Please can someone tell me how to scan documents with a HP Officejet 5610 all-in-one printer and an iMac 21.5 , OS X Yosemite version 10.10.1 ?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Scanning can be done on Yosemite as listed in the following document:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c04467713&tmp_task=useCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=e...
A such will allow scanning as a PDF file as example.
If by "Scanning a Document" you may refer to OCR scanning (e.g. scanning a text to a Word file which can be edited), a such is not supported by the provided solution and will require a 3rd party software which offer OCR capabilities. Vuescan re as example support a such:

Can you actually see that the attachment has a .jpg extension? Some mail systems strip it off (I've seen AOL do that) which makes the attachment difficult to open.

Trying to scan documents through group printer via wifi

Good Day, I have a Dell laptop Inspiron 17 with Windows 8.1 installed. I am using the above printer via my husband's computer through a homegroup and wifi. I have no problem with the printer as it prints from my laptop, but I cannot scan a document through my laptop and have to ask my husband to do this every time through his computer. When I tried to install the printer directly onto my laptop with the HP disc supplied with the printer it informs me that my computer needs to be updated to allow this. I do not know how to update my laptop to accept this installation, or preferably a way to scan through the homegroup and wifi. Can anyone solve this problem for me please?

Hello , Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you're not able to scan from your wirelessly connected HP Officejet Pro 8600 e-All-in-One Printer to your Windows 8.1 computer. I would like to assist you today with resolving this scanning issue. Because you're utilising the printer over a Homegroup with Wifi it sounds like you may be 'sharing' the printer from your husband's Windows 7 computer. Printer Sharing is a feature of the Windows Operating System. It was primarily used for USB Cable connected printers that do not have the option of being configured over the network. Printer Sharing would allow you to install a printer through a USB Cable on the main (host) computer, and share that connection with multiple other computers. This way, multiple users could have access and print to one USB connected printer. When you have a networked connected printer, like your HP Officejet, it is not necessary to utilise Windows Printer Sharing as your printer can be fully installed on all of the computers. In fact, if you wish to utilise all features of your printer, especially scanning, you would need to have the printer fully installed on each computer as Printer Sharing does not allow for scanning, only printing. Can I please have you follow the steps below to install your HP Officejet on your Windows 8.1 computer to allow for full printing and scanning ability from your Windows 8.1 computer and your huband's Windows 7 computer. Step 1: Remove Device: For troubleshooting purposes it is crucial that we have a nice clean slate to work with. Therefore, I am going to have you remove any traces of your HP Officejet from your Windows 8.1 computer prior to installation. Open your Start screen by selecting the Windows icon on the bottom left of your computer screen or by selecting the Windows key on the bottom left of your keyboard, to the right of the Ctrl buttonUnder the Start screen type Devices and Printers. Click Devices and Printers to open it.Under the Devices and Printers window look for your HP Officejet. If you see it please right click on it and select 'Remove Device' or 'Delete' Once the printer has been deleted please close Devices and Printers.Please proceed to the next step.
Step 2: Clear Temp Files: Open your Start screen by selecting the Windows icon on the bottom left of your computer screen or by selecting the Windows key on the bottom left of your keyboard, to the right of the Ctrl buttonUnder the Start screen type Run. Click Run to launch the Run dialogue boxIn the Run box type %temp% and click OKWhen the Temp folder opens, select Ctrl + A at the same time on your keyboard. Everything in this folder will now highlight.Select the 'delete' button on your keyboard. The Temp folder contains temporary internet files. No actual files or folders on your computer will be affected by deleting the Temp files. Should a Temp file still be used than you will automatically get the pop up to 'skip' that item.Close the Temp folder once it is emptiedRight click the Recycling Bin on your desktop and select Empty Recycling Bin Step 3: Install Device: Please click here to download the latest drivers for you HP OfficejetOnce the download is complete please click on the download and allow it to 'Run'The installation window should open after a brief extraction Once the installation window opens please follow the onscreen prompts to install your networked device When the installation completes, please test scanning and printing to confirm that your HP Officejet is functioning as per normal on your Windows 8.1 computer. Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. I look forward to hearing from you. Good luck!

Not able to attach the scanned document with Interaction Record in SAP-CRM

Hi Experts,
I have a scanned document and I am trying to attach it with Activity in Interaction Record.
I maintained the document ID refering to scanned document in table TOA01 with interaction record guid; however the attachment gets displayed in SAP-CRM GUI but i am not able to see the attachment in SAP-CRM GUI.
Please help if someone has encountered a similar issue or propose a way to attach the document with acitivity in interaction record.

Hello Amit,
I am not able to understand your requirement correctly. Are you trying to attach the Document as a Attachment to the Interaction record (or) trying to attach it as a Archive Link Document??
If you could give me more info.. I think I will be able to assist you with this as I have worked in this area...
Cheers..

Only scanned document (jpeg) can print black color

Hello everyone,
I have a weird problem with my printer. Black ink is not printing properly. Whenever I print any .doc or text files, a blurry page comes out..and sometimes, i got nothing but an empty page. What makes it weird is, I can print any scanned doc saved as jpeg with no problem. Black color gets printed with photos.
I already used the maintenance tools like cleaning and aligning the ink cartridge but to no avail. The ink level is also full.
Any idea what's happening?

OK, I checked the versions of the different machines running IE and they are all 5.00.2614.3500. Also, for the time being, my policy file consists of:
grant {
// Allow everything for now
permission java.security.AllPermission;
};What other security issues to I need to investigate? Thanks so much for your responses!

No permission to open or delete scanned document with HP OJ 4630

I've scanned things before with no problem, but today, I have a scanned document that I cannot open or delete. I don't know who has 'permission', as the Security won't say. I can't change it. Do I have to keep this on the desktop forever?

Could it be the scan is still in progress so the file is locked?

Scanning wirelessly with Epson printer and OS 10.6.4

Cannot scan wirelessly with Epson NX515 and 10.6.4. Will print, but not scan. Will only scan with ethernet connection and using Image Capture app.
Error message indicates No Connection. But there is a connection because I can print wirelessly.
Thank you.

Welcome to Apple Discussions Ella.
Epson Support indicate that you must install Apple's Rosetta software - available from the installation disk for SL. In addition they indicate a communication problem which they are working on but I don't know how old this message is, ie how well they keep their website updated, nor do I know whether this affects wireless communication for scanning.
Epson also indicate that some of their supplied software comes from other companies and you might need to download updates from those companies directly. This might apply to the scanning software or a component of it. They do give web links for this.
I don't know how compatible this model is with wireless scanning but there is a note about making sure that the wireless settings allow the a/b settings as it's not able to operate through the n setting. I imagine that the settings are usually set for compatibility.
You should use Software Update to ensure you have the latest Epson software.
Note that scanning seems to put greater demands on the network than printing.

Editing scanned document with Adobe Pro

Is it possible to edit scanned documents that are saved as pdf files? I know the search or find command do not work on scanned documents. Our office is going paperless but there are times that we need to go back to the original document and make changes instead of reproducing the original, making the changes and then creating a new document

you'd need a good OCR (Optical Character Recognition) application to convert the images to text first.
After that, you'd probably want to export the text to something like a Word document for editing.
Most of the time it's easier just to recreate the document.

Modem options for MacPro use with Brother printer/fax/modem

I have a MacPro without a modem but could get and install one, I suppose. I have a Brother printer that, I think, will fax to and from the computer [MFC-8670-DN] but can't set it up without a modem of course. I do have a modem in a Cube that still works.
Wht's the best way to go? Get modem and install in MacPro, use Cube and PageSender or somehow work out Cube send/receipt but ultimately connecting to MacPro?
Thanks for any help in figuring this out. I want to fax from MacPro desktop and receive to MacPro desktop. I do have Page Sender but no modem in the MacPro, thus the issue.

You can purchase the USB Modem from Apple for around $49.

Scan documents with Antivirus before uploading to WCM

I have read a few olderposts on virus scanning before uploading to WCM. They were no help. Would anyone like to share product or method of scanning documents before calling WCM web service upload?

You will need to create a custom component (based on Java Filter Check-in Events) which will call the virus scan and allow check-in only if virus scan passes.
I have a component which does a check on folder quota (drop me an email if you want it), that you could use as a basis, or you could check sample components available at http://bexhuff.com/2011/03/howto-component-samples-for-oracle-ucm-11g
Of course, you will have to do the virus scan call and evaluation.
