Unable to print and scan from new wireless hp printer to Macbook Air

I have just purchased a  wireless HP Deskjet 2540( compatible with MAC) and I am not able to print or scan anything on my Macbook Air,even after trying with the USB connection.I have installed and uninstalled the printer 3 times but still not working!My MAC shows the following messages  :
"HP scan Pro quit unexpectedly"
" Error: Scanner could not be initialised(Scanner not found)"
Can anyone help me with that?
The HP help desk is open only on weekdays/office hours which makes impossible for me to call them.

Contact HP tech support. I would also look for the most current drivers since it sounds like the ones you have are not compatible.

  • Scanning from Lexmark Intuition S5050 to my MacBook Air

    Hello
    I have two Mac computers, one is a MacBook and the other is a MacBook Air. I have bought a Lexmark S505 and now i want to scan a document, but the printer only found the MacBook but not my MacBook Air. Why? How can scan a document and send it to my MacBook Air or another selected computer? or how can i use the scan using the commands directly from my MacBook Air?
    Thanks
    Jorge

    Add the printer in System Preferences > Print & Scan > click the + icon below the list if the printer isn't already defined.  You might have to click the padlock to unlock this pane.
    Once added, run the Image Capture program located in the Applications directory.

  • Windows Live Photo Gallery stopped importing and scanning from my printer.

    Windows Live Photo Gallery was allowing import and scanning from my printer.  All of a sudden this feature has stopped working.  I no longer get the dialogue box that asks whether I want to import documents or pictures... Could this be a setting
    issue?

    You can launch it manually.The executable for the Scanner and Camera Wizard is:
    Start > Run > Type in wiaacmgr.exe > Press Enter key.

  • I had to install a new hard drive on my macbook air and now I am getting unkown error whenever I try to login to itunes

    I had to install a new hard drive on my macbook air and now I am getting unkown error whenever I try to login to itunes. Apple support suggested I reset my password so I did that and still the problem is occuring. Itunes and the app store are working normally on my ipad and iphone. Does anyone know what the problem is. The new disk was installed in France coz I am on holiday there. could there be something I need to change in my settings? I need help urgently as I am trying to finish an assignment and need to be able to access and download from icloud.

  • HT1364 Move itunes library from a windows computer and import this library to itunes on a macbook air

    Is it possible to move itunes library from a windows computer to an external drive (time capsule) while, keeping all the playlist, ratings, plays etc. And importing this library to itunes on a macbook air? And how is it done? The media files should stay on the external drive since there is not enough space on the macbook air.
    Regards
    Søren

    Hey man. Thanks a lot for the reply (hold the options instead of command key while launching). My old itunes library is now on my new computer in itunes, but the mp3 files are not in the same itunes folder. Where do I place these or what do I do to play them in my new itunes library?
    All the songs in the library have exclamation marks in front of them because itunes can't find them.
    Thanks again
    Søren

  • I created a new apple id for my iphone and ipad which work great and allow me to access Icloud. on my macbook air can't get it to use my new apple id for icloud. Help?

    I created a new apple id for my iphone and ipad which work great and allow me to access Icloud. on my macbook air  I can't get it to use my new apple id for icloud. It keeps going back to my old apple id and doesn't afford me to alter it. I use system preferences-icloud and it just wants to verify the old apple id but doesn't afford me the opportunity to delete teh account or edit it like the iphone5 and ipad. Help?

  • I upload all of my photos from my iphone 5 onto my macbook air to get more space on my phone, and now whenver i try to upload it says there is no more storage or there was a problem transferring a picture. what can I do to get more space onto my iphoto?

    i upload all of my photos from my iphone 5 onto my macbook air to get more space on my phone, and now whenver i try to upload it says there is no more storage or there was a problem transferring a picture. what can I do to get more space onto my iphoto? I've tried putting the pictures on flashdrives, but iphoto would no tlet me transfer.

    I don't know how large the SSD (solid state hard drive) is, or how big your iPhone 5 is, but with some iPhones having 64GB and some Airs having as little as 64GB and some having as much as 512GB it's not hard to see how storing the contents of your iPhone 5 on your Macbook Air could run you out of space.
    Go to the Macbook Air and bring up a finder window and pull the Go menu down and go to the Computer. Right click on the Macintosh HD and select get info. See if there is any available space on the MacBook Air. If not you are out of SSD space (you're storing more on your Macbook Air than it has storage for). I'm not sure if iTunes can store its library on an external hard drive or quite how you would make that happen. But even if you managed that, when the hard drive was disconnected, you would lose access to your library. Using a smart media card might be possible (I don't know) but it would probably be irritatingly slow. If you have a small Air and a big iPhone you might just have to find a different computer to sync to. Just remember a 64GB iPhone is a big chunk of SSD for a Macbook Air. I did it with my previous and my current Air but even my previous one had 256GB and I really just fit.

  • I currently run the Design and Web Premium CS6 on a first generation MacBook Air and want to buy a new MacBook Pro. How do I know whether I can install my Adobe programs onto the new computer? Because I know there is some kind of limit.

    I currently run the Design and Web Premium CS6 on a first generation MacBook Air and want to buy a new MacBook Pro. How do I know whether I can install my Adobe programs onto the new computer? Because I know there is some kind of limit.
    Also, I had to install the software twice on my same computer before because I had to reboot the computer. I don't know if this affects the limit.

    You are allowed to have two activated installations so there should not be a problem having working installations on the two machines.  If by chance you have somehow tied up two activations for the one machine you can have Adobe support help resolve that thru chat.

    yes.  As long as it is a newer one (means not 15-20 years old). Do you have one?  If so, provide the make/model.  If you do not have one, which ones are you looking to purchase?
