Scanning in win 8.1 for HP psc 2355 all-in-one

I can't get my HP psc 2355v all-in-one to scan.  The printer tells me to install HP software for this feature when I try to start scan from the printer. I have installed the drivers multiple times and cannot find a way to execute the scan from my computer.

Welcome to the HP Community @bleubeck ,
I read about how you are having troubles with scanning to your Windows 8.1 system from your PSC 2355 printer, and I wanted to reach out. There are no drivers or software available to install with this specific printer model on Windows 8.1, as the model is older and OS is newer. I would think that your best bet would be to try running the Print and Scan Doctor to see if the diagnostic tool can detect the printer and scan. If this does not work, you can also try scanning from Microsoft Paint as a work around option.
If all else fails, you can contact HP directly and discuss your printer options to upgrade to a new printer compatible with Windows 8.1.

  • Paper Jam for HP PSC 1610 All-in-One Printer

    Paper Jam for HP PSC 1610 All-in-One Printer:
    I had a paper jam and cleared the paper from the printer.  Now every time I turn the printer "on" it picks up the top piece of paper from the tray and runs it about ½  to ¾ of the way thru the paper feed, stops, and then displays message "paper jam clear paper and then press OK".  When I do that it simply picks up the next piece of paper off the tray and does the message again.  If I push the OK button on the printer it will simply finish the ejection and then pick up the next paper from the tray, and do the same thing.  I have examined the interior (and exterior) of the printer for paper scraps and  any other obvious sign of trouble (dirty drive wheels, missing rollers, broken springs, etc...) and can not see anything unusual. I can not print a test print because of the paper jam message.  I am running Windows XP and the printer has been working fine for months (until this recent jam).  I did all the steps from the HP fix it site including clean rollers, plug and unplugged,  carriage travel OK and more. Don't know what to do now........Any help would be great!!!!   Thank you!

  • Lost software to HP PSC 2355 all-in-one

    Hello,
    I am trying to find out how to get another CD for my HP PSC 2355 all-in-one printer. I can print with it but I can not use the scan feature because I lost my software CD. I got a new computer and I can not find the CD to download it so that I can use the scan feature. If anyone knows how I can get another CD or maybe where I can download the software please let me know. Thanks for the help.

    Hello hispanicchyna,
    I would like to provide you with some information on this. I'm guessing that your new computer either has Windows 8, or Windows 8.1 running as an operating system.
    I recommend downloading and running the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows. This program was created to help Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 users download and install the latest and most appropriate HP software solution for their HP Printer.
    The following link may answer your question as well: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03460648&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4132&product=422...

  • HP PSC 2355 all-in-one printer cuts off bottoms of letters

    My HP PSC 2355 All-In-One Printer cuts off the bottoms of letters. Photos are fine. 3rd HP black cartrige, got worse today.
     On a Mac, 10.9.3.

    Hi @timed 
    I would like to help you with your 2355 printer. A printer reset can initiate an alignment. Please use the following document to troubleshoot the issue, and let me know the outcome of your efforts; Troubleshooting Print Quality Problems with the Diagnostic Page.
    If the issue remains unresolved after following all of the steps in the link above, I recommend contacting HP.
    Don't hesitate to call, although the printer may be out of warranty, the cartridges could be in warranty; therefore, there wouldn't likely be a fee for the phone support. HP will, at HP's option, either replace products under warranty that prove to be defective or refund the purchase price.
    They could even determine after troubleshooting that it is a problem with the printer, in which case they may offer you a discount on a newer model.
    The number to call HP is 1-800-474-6836 for Canada and US, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
    To find the “Warranty Ends” date, look in the following table for the date's location on each product. The date follows the YYYY/MM/DD or YYYY/MM format, where YYYY indicates the year, MM indicates the month, and DD indicates the day.
    I hope this helps.

  • HP PSC 2355 all-in-one Paper Jam Error

    Hi. I have an HP PSC 2355 all-in-one printer that has worked well for a long time but when i switched it on today to do some printing, it made some strange noises and when i tried to print it sent an error saying there was a paper jam - but there was not !
    It feeds a sheet of paper in about half way through then stops and the error is displayed.
    I tried doing a copy, and the exact same thing happens.
    Has anyone got an idea what has gone wrong ?
    Thanks.

  • Connecting HP PSC 2355 All-in-One printer/scanner using USB cord

    I have a Time Capsule that I use to back up both my Mac Mini and my MacBook Pro and would like to connect my HP PSC 2355 All-in-One Printer/Scanner to the network using USB cord and plugging it into the back of my TIme Capsule. I tried this once, but was unable to find the Printer. I would like to set it up so I could use both the Printer and the Scanner from either my MacMini or my MacBook Pro. It would be really cool if I could figure out a way to use Back to My Mac to print when I am away from home and using my MacBook Pro at a WiFi Hotspot. Is this possible? How can I do it? Suggestions? Thank you!

    +would it be possible to split the USB cord coming from the Printer+
    I'm afraid not. The connection must be direct to either the TC or your computer, but not both at the same time.
    Apple's Printer Troubleshooting Guide will guide you through the process of setting up the printer. Unfortunately, Apple does not offer a printer compatibility list, so the only way to really know if your device is compatible is to try to see if it can be configured.
    Perhaps HP would could help in this regard.

    My mother owns a HP PSC 1350 All-in-one.  She has Windows 7 OS.  She has had it for a while and never needed to scan and type, but she does now for work. 
    Does anyone know if the HP PSC 1350 All-in-one came with OCR Software on the disk, or if it is downloadable?
    If not are there any OCR freeware programs that won't contaminate her computer with ad & mal ware?

  • PSC 2355 All In One - won't scan

    I understand you are unable to scan and have already began troubleshooting. I would be happy to help you with your PSC 2355.
    Please first post back with the answers to these few questions.
    Is the printer connected wirelessly or with a USB cable?
    Is the printer connected directly to a wall outlet or a surge protector? (It is best to connect directly to the wall)
    Do  you have any other HP Printers installed on this computer? If so, do you still have the printers?
    Is this an HP laptop or a different brand?
    What operating system do you have? Mac or Windows?

  • What is the password for hp psc 1350 all in one printer. want to connect to ipad.

    i have aan all in one printer psc 1350. i want to connect it to ipad in this manner. 
    IPAD to COMPUTER via WIFI
    COMPUTER to PRINTER via USB cable
    so when i try to connect ipad to printer, it requires some username and password. i dont know what to type in there.  
    i am running on a win 7 32 bit

    Sorry, but this will not work.  Your printer has to be directly on you network, not tethered to a computer that is on the network.
    Since your printer is USB only (not a network-able printer), your only solution is to get a new wireless printer.  Get one that supports AirPrint if you want to print from your iPad.

  • PSC 2355-All-in-one

    My All-In-One PSC 2355 stopped printing multiple copies of a page, so I decided to re-install it.  After deleting the software, I found that my old disc didn't work with Windows Vista Home.  I have re-installed the compatible drivers from the HP website and all printing seems to be working fine, but it still will print only one copy of a page. Any ideas?

    I'm not sure what might have changed to cause this issue, but you may have to set the number of copies in two different locations.  First - set the number of copies when you click File and Print (which is probably what you're already doing).  Second - When you click File and Print from the app, click Properties and go into the Basics tab of the driver and set the number of copies in there as well.
    Sometimes, either the driver or the app will overide one another.
    Hope that helps.
