Trying to use HP All-In-One to scan with Airport.

I just picked up an HP Officejet 6210 all-in-one. I got it set up and plugged into my Airport Extreme Basestation. I did a print test from my (wireless) MacBook and everything worked fine.
Next I tried to open the scanning software. I kept getting a message saying there was no scanning device connected. Then I would plug the USB cable to the Officejet directly into my MacBook and everything worked fine.
I chatted with an HP tech online and they said I would have to use HP's wireless router and get rid of the Airport Extreme to be able to do everything on the Officejet using wireless, and that by using the Aiport Extreme I would only be able to use the print functions and plug in directly whenever I wanted to scan or fax.
This *****. Have any of you run into the same problem? Is there any way to use all of the features (printing, scanning and faxing) of the HP Officejet using the Airport Basestation?
Thanks very much,
Ted Vieira

Can I scan using my all-in-one when it is connected to the USB port of an Airport Express or Airport Extreme Base Station?

  • HP psc 24110 all-in-one - Problems scanning with OS X v10.5.7

    Hi, I have been using my HP psc 2410 photosmart all-in-one printer successfully for the past 10months with my MacBook Pro. I recently upgraded my OSX operating system to v10.5.7. since then my printer has been unable to scan. It will print, copy & fax. Checking the HP website shows the latest version of OS X does not support the scanning function of the psc 2410. Does anyone know how I can fix this problem or do I have to buy another scanner? Alternatively, how do I get back to the previous version of OS X which was supplied with my Computer so that I can get the scan function to work?

    Hi aviete,
    There is no full feature software and driver but you can download HP Printer Drivers for OS X. This download includes the latest HP printing and scanning software OS X Mavericks, OS X Mountain Lion, OS X Lion and Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard.
    With this driver you can still print and scan, you just wont have HP software to scan from. Scanning to the computer from the printer control panel is only available when using HP Scan software, thus it will not work because there is no HP scan software as apart of the Apple Software Update driver.
    Instead, you can scan using,
    Method one: Scan from the Print & Scan window   
    Method two: Scan from Apple Preview
    Method three: Scan from Apple Image Capture 
    I hope this helps. If you have any additional questions are have any difficulty using any of these methods, please let me know what method you are trying and what the issue/error is.

  • HP Officejet Pro L7780 All-in-one not scanning with Yosemite

    I have searched for a workaround or fix to the scanning problem I'm having. I just bought a brand new Macbook Pro Retina and have loaded the latest printer drivers for the HP Officejet Pro L7780. The printer works ok, but I can't get the scanner to work. When I try, it says: "Failed to open a session on the device."
    I'm using the printer over a wifi connection.
    Can anyone help with this, please?!
    Thanks!
    peace,

    Hello,

  • HP 7310 ALL-IN-ONE, WHEN SCANNING WITH DOCUMENT FEEDER SUDDENLY STOPS HALF WAY THROUGH

    I put the document in the feeder and start to scan. The ADF accepts half the page and then stops and makes a screeching sound. The scanning head is half way across the glass so I presume it has something to do with that. I can do a manual scan. Any help would be great. 

    Hi BENNSHEP,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that when scanning with the document feeder, the HP Officejet 7310 printer stops scanning halfway through. I am happy to help you with this scanning issue!
    Please take a look through these two guides:

    Hope this is helpful, and have a nice day!

  • Is there a format for a file that I can use for attaching a one page document with photos embedded that will open in everyone's email automatically?   I've tried PDF and Word, but worked only in Mail.  Lost formatting when just copied and pasted in email.

    Is there a format for a file that I can use for attaching a one page document with photos embedded that will open in everyone's email automatically?   I've tried PDF and Word, but PDF worked only in Mail.  Word worked in nothing.  I also tried copying and pasting the document but lost all formatting when just copied and pasted in email.  Is there a way to do this?

    Are you sure PDF won't work? It should as what you're trying to do is pretty much what it is designed for (PDF - Portable Document Format). On a Mac anywone who receives the file should be able to see it in all its page layout glory by using the app Preview or Adobe Reader. Same on a PC, the file should be viewable as a PDF file using Adobe Reader and probably some other viewer (don't use PCs so not sure what other apps).
    What application are you creating the file in and are you sure you're exporting it correctly in PDF format, fonts and images embedded?

    Hi @EslamHassan
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I gather that you have a question regarding the HP All-in-One Printer Remote app.
    The LaserJet M127fw printer is not a supported printer for the HP AiO app. I have included the HP Printers and Supported Mobile Printing Solutions document for reference.

  • What all-in one printers work with Lion?

    What all-in-one printers work with Lion?

    kennethfromtoronto wrote:
    For Lion installation the recommendation was not to use the drivers on the included disk, but to download them directly from the Epson support site. I managed to install with no difficulties. Now the NX430 is working seamlessly with 15" MBP (Lion, 10.7.2); 13" MBP (Snow Leopard, 10.6.8); 27" iMac (Snow Leopard, 10.6.8); 15" Dell (Win7). I am sorry to hear that it did not work for you. 
    Ditto, most Printer/scanner manufacturers are getting up to date with Lion compatable drivers now. Most are available from their websites. Some still want to install old scanner software which is PPC so will have to downgrade to SL again, because they won't look for Lion compatable software. I find VueScan still an excellant program which works fine with my 3 yr old Cannon Pixma.

    Typically the manufacturer does not give you all the options on a Mac than on a PC. That is up to the manufacturer who writes the drivers for the printers

    Hi jamesxio,
    Do you still have the Pictures folder in your home folder? If not, create a new folder in your home folder and name it Pictures. Make sure the iPhoto Library folder is in the Pictures folder.
    Now launch iPhoto with the Option key depressed until you get a message screen. Choose to open another library and navigate to and highlight the iPhoto Library folder. Click the Open button.
    You didn't move anything around or rename anything in the iPhoto Library folder in the finder, did you?

    Got a new HP Envy laptop running Windows 8.1.   Replacing old HP running XP.  Trying to install two HP All in One printers on my home wireless network  HP 6500 E709n and a HP 7410.  I am stuck in an infinte loop using the HP Print and Scan Doctor.  I load up one printer Driver using the downloads on the website.  When I go to load the other printer, the system won't let me continue until I uninstall the previous printer driver and accessy software.
    Anyone know how to get around it?

    Hello again,
    Thanks for getting back to me!
    Next, I would suggest uninstalling all of the printer software on your computer, performing a clean boot and then reinstalling the OJ 7410 first and then the OJ 6500. Here are the steps and links in order for you.
