  Ensure that the computer name field is set and include only English characters...

  Otherwise, click on modify and change accordingly.

  Now, restart your Mac and check differences while allowing the Scan of the computer.

  If the same persists, click on the Apple icon, install any available software update and see if that can help you.

  If there is still no try to change reset the printing system, then reconfigure the device by following the HP Installation Wizard (under Applications > Hewlett-Packard > utility device) and look for any change.

  If there is still no change, remove the software by following the HP uninstaller program.

  Then go to computer Finder > Macintosh HD > library > printers and move the HP folder to the trash.

• OfficeJet 5740: officejet 5740 - scan of the computer cannot be activated - cause communication error

  2 weeks ago, I bought a HP officejet 5740 - installed the software and everything worked well. Unfortunately, the printer is dead, and I just got a new.  In order to start to 'clean up', I removed all HP on the Mac software - and then installed the printer. I can print - and scan using progtram analysis. The printer is connect via ethernet.

  This left me with 2 numbers

  (1) for installation, Setup fails when I reached the setting of alerts (communication error - please restart the program) try to configure alerts in HP utility fail - even once to the criticism fail - restart program

  (2) I'm not able to activate the scan of the computer on the Mac.  I get "communication failed" when I try to turn on the feature in HP utillity

  What I tried

  Delete all HP software (several times) and reinstall it again - still the same problem

  I removed the HP software and used the diskutillity to fix the rights - and reinstalled him brand new - still same problem.

  I have reset the printingsystem on the mac - still the same problem

  I still think it's weird - because everything worked great with the first printer I had! -replace it with a similar one caused the problem.  And this isn't the printer - because scan to computer works with my wife PC

  I have run out of ideas - and hopes that someone can solve this problem!

  Thank you for your reply - the problem is now resolved.  It seems that when you run Uninstall HP also something with the printerdrives provided by Apple update. I noticed that version 3.1 was installed on March 2, when I installed the first printer, I bought (the one who broke down) in all my tests, uninstalling and installing the drivers, I have checked apple update, it says no new updates, but last night he said suddenly that there was an update and then it reienstalled the 3.1 drivers HP again - and surpirice the problem has been solved.

  Thank you for your quick response!

• HP5520 Scan of the computer cannot be activated.

  Hello everyone

  I wonder if someone can help me.  I bought a HP5520 all in one printer this week.  I have put in all and I have no problem printing on my WiFi, but it will not scan.

  I use an iMac computer with operating system of 10.9 Mavericks.

  I followed all the advice from other users on the Forum and on the HP website with no luck.

  I get the message computer scan can not be activated.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software several times with no success.  Regarding the HP utility there is the option "Enable the analysis to the computer", but it is grey so I can't select.

  Any help woud be appreciated.

  Hello pottypeteand welcome to the Forums of HP, I hope you enjoy your experience!

  I see that you have problems with scanning.  I would like to help.

  I suggest to remove the printer from your printing system, using this document: uninstalling the software of the printer.

  Once you have deleted, I suggest to check and repair disk permissions: function to fix the permissions of all utility disk drive.

  I also run your Apple updates: OS x: Mac App Store apps and OS X update

  After the updates, I recommend reinstalling the HP Photosmart 5520 e-all-in-one software full function and drivers.

  Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

• HP Officejet 7610: Scan of the computer cannot be activated or scan and combine them into a single pdf document.

  I've recently updated to macOS Sierra 10.12 and scanning to HP computer software cannot be located when I open the HP utility.

  I can't find a further recommended HP software for my device other than El captain in operating system online.

  If I try to scan through preferences systems for printers and Scanners I can open the scanner, but I can't create a PDF combining into one document - it cancels the procedure after about 2 pages!

  The scan HP Destinations 'PDF for Adobe Reader' is red 'could not locate the target application that might have removed or uninstalled. File format = "PDF".

  How can I get that back?

  Thank you

  Hi @JOGL,

  Thank you for joining the HP Forums!

  I understand that computer analysis can not be activated as well as the scan and combine them into a single pdf document. With your printer HP Officejet 7610. I am pleased to see that for you!

  At this time for this model. There is no software and drivers for Mac OS X 10.12 again, given that the operating system has just been launched, it could take some time. For the time being, you can try to use HP Easy Scan to see if that can meet your scanning preferences. In otherwise, all we can do is wait for the software and drivers to be released.

  If you are unable to reach a resolution, please click on accept solution. If you appreciate my help, please click on the thumbs up icon. The two icons are below this post.

  Thanks for posting and have a nice day!

• EPrinter HP Envy 4500 Scan of the computer (HP Pavilion 14 Chromebook) / E-Mail?

  I just bought three HP Pavilion 14 Chromebook & HP Envy 4500 ePrinters for members of the family that I am trying to set up.  (I'm new to cloud computing).  Can I scan documents to PDF at the computer (Chromebook) / E-mail of the printer?  If so, how?  When documents arrive on the computer?  If the scan to e-mail is possible on the devices above, can I store several addresses e-mail ePrint in the printer choose?  Thank you!

  Hi eKeith,

  Thanks for shouting it and fast response.    No problem on other issues, it is we are here for.

  1. You will need to manually launch the built-in Web server.  What I've done in the past, it's just mark the ip address of the printer is to click instead of having to manually enter the IP every time. It works best if you set a manual ip address of the printer.  I've included a screenshot.
     1. Click on the "Network" tab in the SAP
     2. Click on 'Network' in the left side menu
     3. Click on 'network address (IP)' in the left side menu
     4. Click 'propose a manual IP address.
     5. Click on "Manual DNS server"
     6. For the server DNS preferred manual please enter 8.8.8.8
     7. For the auxiliary DNS Server Manual please enter 8.8.4.4
        
        
  2. There is no way to web analytics by default in pdf format.
  3. The default value corresponds to your "Downloads" folder, but you can switch to "Google Drive".
  4. If you click on the built-in web server Web Services tab, there is an option in the side menu on the left for updates. I've included a screenshot of where to find him.

  

• Scan of the computer is not activated after reboot

  I have an Officejet 7500 a wireless connected to my network. A Windows XP system installed the management software. I have activated the service computer scan and it works very well. However, the XP system shuts down every night and when it is restarted the computer scanning function is NOT active.

  Is it possible to activate computer scan automatically when the XP system starts? It's a pain in the neck having to open the management console and activate it manually every day.

  Thank you.

  I have a macbook air and I wanted my hp 5530 for a few years and it has worked very well.

After the 3rd re - install, scan to computer worked for a day and now I can't do it again!

  I can't check the box 'Enable the scan of the computer' in the hp utility - WHY? Can someone help me please no copy and paste the instructions of troubleshooting, I read the already. What do I have to uninstall and reinstall again?

  Hello
  The HP scanning application is not compatible with Sierra, so you may experience problems.
  Remove the HP scanning by moving it to the trash, then empty the trash.
  
  Instead install HP Easy Scan below, it will be installed in the Applications folder:
  http://FTP.HP.com/pub/softlib/software12/HP_Quick_Start/OSX/installations/Essentials/HP-easy-scan-1_7_0.pkg
  
  If you experience additional problems, ensure that the latest version of the software is installed by following HP Easy Start below:
  http://FTP.HP.com/pub/softlib/software12/HP_Quick_Start/OSX/applications/HP_Easy_Start.app.zip
  
  Finally, make sure that your drivers are up-to-date by clicking the Apple icon, select about this Mac and then press on software update.
  Click on the Bank on the menu bar, click Reload Page, click all update if an update is available.
  
  Kind regards

• HP Envy 5660: Win 10-5660 Envy - Scan of the computer is enabled no longer

  I understand that this has been reported several times by others.  No proposed solution does work for me.  Periodically, I get the error message "Scan of the computer is no longer enabled.»  The network connection to the printer has been lost.  This started only after the upgrade to Windows 10.  This is a false message I still able to scan from the printer.

  I uninstalled and reinstalled but false error notifications always appear.  I can easily disable scan of the computer in the management of the scanning and uncheck the box there.  There is a work around.

  Is - this position of HP to use the autour work and waive the functionality of scanning directly from the printer?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Thank you for using the HP Forums.

  The pop-up message occurs because the software is not able to detect the Scanner (because the Scan of the computer is activated).

  Win 10 uses WSD and WSD is maybe not as reliable (where the popup).

  Maybe you can try a TCP/IP port?  What could reduce disconnect it temporarily.

  Can you try using a TCP/IP port?

  Creating a TCP IP port:

  1. print a Configuration Page to get the printer IPv4 address (you can also tap on the icon wireless on the front panel of your printer to obtain the IP address)
  2. on your PC, go to the Panel control, devices and printers, right-click the printer and on the left, click printer properties, select the Ports tab.
  3. click Add Port, select the Port TCP/IP Standard, then New Port and follow the instructions in the wizard.
  4. Enter the IP address of the printer.

  This video resource will show you how do:

  Create & port use TCP IP

  Note that you can ALWAYS go back to the original port the HP software installed by selecting the HP port on the Ports tab (in the properties of the printer)

  Let us know if it works.

  Otherwise, if you do not use the function "Scan to Computer" regularly, you can always disable.

  Thank you.

• I have a new HP Envy with Windows 8 desktop computer that still does not run properly. I rebooted, restored, ran chkdsk, sfc/scannow, uninstall/install update etc...

  I have a new HP Envy with Windows 8 desktop computer that still does not run properly. I have rebooted, restored (im doing this), ran chkdsk, sfc/scannow, malware, virus, uninstall/install etc and my machine wil always do not run for a long time without going through some sort of problem after an hour or two.  Can anyone suggest what to do about this? I read a lot of information online on all the windows 8 and fixes bugs, etc, but anything Microsoft/Windows, which ensures its customers, a hotfix or compesating their customers with software that still works. This isn't a hardware problem, and I can't keep day and bad shooting and trying to fix the day things in?

  Sincerely,
  A client who is a loss for words.
  Here are some problems in no particular order.
  1.) apps to not install it, and/or Windows saying they are when they are in fact not. The fix to install / uninstall, or get on the site of windows directly in general does not, and or does not at all.
  The change permissions 2.) does not work on files that you should be able to access in changing oxnership, permissions, etc.
  3.) Google chrome won't let me access my account of microsoft (or fact rarely) trying to access assistance. But internet Explorer doesn't?
  Randomly will increase from Internet 4.) a previous connection wired to wireless to a reboot.
  5.) my 8 'key' windows was only shown to me after that I have let Windows scan my machine online? Why? I paid for this... I restarted it and it says: service not available (it worked the third attempt which was 1-3 minutes after the initial analysis). Windows only showed my product ID not the key. I know that my victory. 8 was OEM when preinstalled I bought it new, but why didn't we files on it that had nothing to do with activation, appearing on dates for three weeks, or so before I bought it. What is the 'activation of the factory'?
  6 :) Windows Essentials does not hang for a long time, and the troubleshooterprogram of update simply does not work (I had to go to the website to try tp operate, the bluetooth functionality is not good that there is an error.
  7.) windows scan and repair gets stuck at 27% (Im not the only one with this problem).
  8.), avery MS Office 2013 Disappears so often and not easy to reload "we have encountered a problem.
   

  The computer manufacturer is responsible to see that it works properly with Windows 8. It says that it is a new computer I contact HP and make these problems their. If you don't get satisfactory results I turn and look elsewhere for a computer. Hope this helps and if you need another post to help and we will be happy to help you.

• HP Envy 4500: Mac running El Capitan will not recognize the HP Envy 4500 printer more

  Last week I was able to print to my HP Envy 4500 to my MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, both running El Capitan.  However, when I went to print today, no computer cannot find my printer.

  I tried everything I found on these forums of discussion... the network reset, feeding all turned off, turning off iPv6, etc. anything.

  I have a USB cord used to print today and when I went in the connected USB printer utility, I could select Configure the wireless, but again, make the message: not accessible device.  It notes the wireless network, the settings were downloaded successfully on my device, however, your Mac could not locate the device on the network.   My Mac is both connected to the same wireless network.

  Help!

  Hello

  I restart your Mac and try the above steps again - if it does not prove successful, I then reboot your router and repeat the steps.

  (a), double-click on the icon on the desktop.

  b click on Manage scan of the computer,

  (c) allow.

  Kind regards.

• "The scan of the computer is enabled is no longer" false error

  Hello

  I bought and installed a HP DeskJet 3521. It is configured for wifi connectivity to two computers on our home network. A laptop computer is 8 64-bit Windows. The other is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.

  The printer seems to work perfectly. However, the driver regularly (as in all the several minutes or so) pops up a message saying "the Scan of the computer is enabled is no longer" or something like that. It is apparent from the system tray. It fades after a few seconds. Otherwise the printer seems to work very well. This happens on two laptops.

  Laptops are in the same room as the printer and the router. The signal strength is high.

  Why did this message occurring and is there a solution for this?

  Thank you

  It is very probably the same problem I had with the HP printers for years.  It happens when the printer goes into a power saving sleep state and falls of connectivity.  To resolve the issue, you have to walk on the printer and the power of the cycle.  It has NOTHING to do with your router or static/dynamic IP allocation.  It's the fault of crappy entiely firmware and HP software.  HP 'experts' are playing the same game of blame-the-other-manufacturer or blame the old user that HP has always played.

  My current HP printer is the third HP sub-standard product I've owned... on three (Yes, I know, shame on me twice).  I've owned a high-end, expensive laptop which overheated during playback of a video to youtube and two printers which disengages automatically when they entered in the mode 'sleep'.  It will be the last HP product I already own...
