The fax function on my c7280 all-in-one printer ceased working since installing windows 8....?

Product: hp photosmart c7280 all-in-one printer,fax, copier,scanner. I recently bought a new desktop (lenovo) with windows 8 pre installed. My printer prints, scans and copies but now refuses to fax. The compatibility centre for windows 8.1 tells me that my printer is compatible with the new os and na action is required...Any suggestions??? Tks

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @francojuve ,
I read about how you can no longer fax after upgrading to Windows 8. I have a couple of my own suggestion that might help!
1. Uninstall the Printer Software
2. Restart the PC
3. Reinstall the driver for Windows 8 here: HP Photosmart Full Feature Software and Drivers
Also, try the troubleshooting steps from this guide: Cannot Send or Receive Faxes
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you, such as a replacement or trade in. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and if you are calling outside of the US/Canada region,: click here.
Best wishes to you!

  • How to use the scan function on a 4215i all in one printer

    How do I use the scan function on this printer with windows 8. I did the installation but the scan function does not seem to wwork 
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Do you have the Officejet 4215 series All-in-One printer?
    If so, then there is no full feature driver for the printer.  The printer is installed using the Windows Update menu of the print drivers.  For information about using the Windows Update driver click here.
    Do you have this printer connected via USB?  If so, then there are workaround methods to get the printer to scan, as the old software package is not available on Windows 8.  In the document linked above, scroll down to the section on how to scan with the Update driver to find information on how to perform these types of scans.  Hope this helps.

  • My HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One printer won´t print out documents, just pictures ...

    My HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One printer won´t print out documents, just pictures. I´ve used the printer, since it was new on the marked, and it has worked perfectly until a few weeks back. There is no problem printing out pictures, but only blank pages comes out when I´m printing out documents. Regardless if it is Word, Excel etc.
    I´ve never used anything else than original cartridges, and the printer is used on Mac OS X 10.7.4. I´ve tried to reinstall the printer several times without any success.
    Can anyone help me?

  • Blinking Lights on Panel on HP C7280 All In One Printer

    What does it mean when all the lights on the pnel keep on blinking?  It is a HP C7280 All In One Printer.  And it does print fine.  I did talk to a Tech at Besy Buy who indicated that it is a major problem and not worth fixing. Please advise and thanks! 
    Cheryl Saba

    Hi Cheryl - Do you see an error message on the display of the printer?  One of the first things to do would be to reset the printer.  Try following these steps:
    Without turning off the product, disconnect the USB cable from the rear of the product.
    NOTE: 
    The USB cable connects to the port on the back of the product. The port is labeled with the USB icon ( ).
    Figure 2: Example USB connection (your product might not look exactly the same as this example)
    Remove the cartridges from the product.
    Wait for the 'Insert Cartridges ' message to display on the control panel.
    Disconnect the power cord from the back of the product.
    Wait 60 seconds.
    Reconnect the power cord. If the product does not automatically turn on, press the Power button ( ).
    Reinsert the cartridges, and then close any open doors on the product.
    If you receive a prompt to print a calibration page, do so.
    Reconnect the USB cable to the rear of the product, and then try printing again.
    Hopefully the reset will resolve the problem.

  • Print Head for our C7280 All In One Printer

    We have a C7280  All in One Printer in the office/  Our repairman told us to order all new color cartridges for it before he could fix it.  We did that, however, today he told us the print head was bad and that we would be better off to buy a new printer than fix the C7280.  He told us he could not get parts for our printer anymore.   If it is the print head, can this printer be fixed? 

    That is the only way you can clean the ink cartridges. I would recommend contacting HP technical support for further assistance. Click here to find out: HP Worldwide Contact.

  • HP 8600 all in one Printer Scanner to Computer with Windows 8

    i can not get the printer to reconize the Computor i want to scan to  i Have HP Printer 8600 all in one printer and HP computor with Windows 8 (wireless)

    Hello Stringfield, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you are experiencing scan issues.  I would like to help.
    I would suggest performing a power reset on the printer.  Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
    I would then recommend downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
    Please let me know the results.  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

    "The printer software was installed incorrectly.  Please reinstall the software for this printer or conact the anufacturer for assistance."
    I used the disk that came with the printer as when I go to the HP site, it tells me that Apple has the drivers needed.  I unistalled the printer and reistalled.  Previously, I just went to the HP website an everything worked fine for drivers, program, etc.  I never had to use the CD that came with the printer.  My printer is:  HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-one, it is wireless, but I even took the computer and plugged it into the printer to make sure that everything was connected.  Can someone please help me to get this working,
