Color LaserJet MFP M177fw Pro: Scan to Mac with Color LaserJet MFP M177fw Pro

I bought and the latest drivers from hp installation a HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw. are downloaded and installed.

I have a Mac and you connect wirelessly to the printer, which works very well. The Mac runs Yosemite 10.10.3

My question is the digitization. There is no option for scanning anywhere, not on the small screen of the printer not on the usefulness of the printer or any where.

Summer spend hours online to find an answer and is now well bored.

I have already reset the disc printing, verified and repaired systems. Can not scan even with the options offered on the forums of hp using Apple caprure or preview. It seems that all these options include versions of OS X prior to Yosemite?

I buy a multifunction printer that is not scan? I said to the saleswoman that I need a printer that can scan and airprint...

Is it possible to scan to a mac at all with this printer? Any help?

Hi @sa9494,

I see that you have problems with scanning. I will definitely do my best to help you.

Check the name of the driver that is installed by the printer. Make sure that it shows just the name of the printer.
Click on the Apple menu, click System Preferences. Click on Printers & Scanners, highlight the name of the printer on the left side and right side of the screen it should show the name of the printer. (Color LaserJet MFP M177fw Pro)

If the full name of the printer is not correctly, delete and add the printer name back from the list. Click on the sign - to remove the driver and then click on the + sign to add the driver might have to drop-down list to select the name of the printer to add a click.

Here is a screenshot of what it should look like. You have the scanning through top tab?

I have also included a document for HP printers - scan with HP Software in OS X v10.10 Yosemite.

Scanning ports is not open on the router to the origin of this problem. You can contact the router company to verify and to open these ports 9220/9500/427 on the router.

Connect the printer with the USB cable, to see if you have the same results.

Let me know.

  • Used to scan on Mac with the installation of ad hoc

    I created my C7250 in an ad hoc network on my MacBook Pro with the latest Mac OS X.  Printing seems to work very well, but HP ScanPro does not recognize the scanner when I try to scan.  He used to work properly when the C7250 was connected directly to the Apple Airport router using an Ethernet cable.  The router is no longer available, so I have to use the ad hoc network.    How the scan to work with the ad hoc network?

  • LaserJet professional M1217 nf: cannot scan over network with a printer laserjet 1217 on a Mac

    Hello

    My set up:

    Mac with Yosemite

    LaserJet M1217 more wireless

    Description of the problem:

    I can't scan. Preview, the control panel or image capture, I get the same error saying "cannot open a session.

    I have installed and reinstalled the drivers/printer about 100 times.

    I tried to add the printer/scanner like airprint, or with the name of the printer as a proposed post.

    Just what causes the same error.

    I have the 2.0 version of the driver installed right now. Tried with 1.7, same result.

    I can print without problem since my Mac and my iPad.

    Tried it with an ethernet cable and have the same problem in case someone ask.

    I looked all over google and doesn't seem like someone else has the same problem? Many people have problems printing over wireless, but it's ok for me. Is the scan, I can't go to work.

    Pages of HP does not offer any other driver which has of the Yosemite. HP offers no additional program for Mac and scan.

    Don't know what else to try.

    Little help? Anyone?

    Thanks Geminy02,

    Unfortunately, your suggestions did not help, and I have a few comments about them.
    First of all, your suggestion about the router was the problem is quite impossible, as you will need to check if the ports are open only in the case we're talking about two different network segments. If you have your printer and your computer in the same segment you will have problems of ports.
    Second: if I would have chosen IP protocol to add my printer, I wouldn't take the option scan, as you said, which means I could not done any tests that I mentioned in my original post, and I would never have had to the point of getting the error message.
    Thirdly: the drivers that you MENTION for download are exactly the same as you get with yosemite, so, this could help to reinstall the driver, it's kind of a long shot (and yes I tried).

    In fact, I managed to solve my problem by doing a factory reset of the printer, any sign of a printer in my computer, cleaning and reinstall the printer using the airprint driver suggested by yosemite where to find my bounjur printer.

    I tried ro think what could be the reason, or to see all what I had changed, and the only thing I've seen different in the configuration before and after he started to work was the name of the printer. When it did not work my printer was called simply "printer", when he was working he was the full name that comes by default. It would be very strange, that this is the reason, but I just mention it here just in case someone read. I believe that the factory reset was the difficulty, not the configuration itself.

    Just for the other readers, I can confirm that this unit can print and scan over my wiresless and cable network on yosemite, with the help of preview, capture image or scan property in the control panel. It took me several hours to make it work, but it does, and my best friend was all the time the printers web page, where you can change the configuration of the printer.

  • . PDF cannot scan on my Mac with HP Envy5520

    I was able to sweep perfectly well because I bought my HP Envy, which I like, but today I can not scan to a .pdf file. I reinstalled the driver but still does not work.  Help, please!

    Hi @towerbarn,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I see that you cannot parse a .pdf file on your Mac with your HP Envy 5520, and I'm happy to help you with your scanning problem!

    To get help, I'll need to know:

    1. The version of the Mac operating system. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
    2. The number of product/model of your printer. Follow the instructions in this link. Find your model number of the HP product.
    3. If the printer is able to make copies.
    4. If the printer is connected, wireless, or USB.
    5. If the power cable is connected to a surge protector, or directly to a wall outlet. Questions when it is connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power. This is true for printers and ink jet.

    Please see this post, want good answers? Ask good Questions, by @Bob_Headrick, then you can get the most out of these forums.

    In the meantime, I recommend trying the following:

    1. Reset the printing system. Mac OS x: how to reset the printing system, if you use the Mavericks, OS X Mavericks: reset the printing system.
    2. Verify and repair disk permissions. 12.x disk utility: repair disk permissions.

    Hope this helps, and hope to hear from you soon!

  • Scanner will not scan on Mac.

    Hello

    All of a sudden that my printer (Photosmart C6380) refuses to scan what either on my Mac. I go to the scanner that I would normally the Photosmart studio and select scan. The scanner then begins to initialize, then: "an unknown error has occurred" pop up appears. I did not what is wrong because it's all pop up says, he won't go into details in addition so I have no idea what actually is this error. I tried scanning my other printer HP (Deskjet F4280) and it came with the same error. I even tried the scan using my Macbook and I get the same error too. I also tried scanning the Mac to the printer, then the printer initializes and freezes I have to restart the printer.

    I recently installed Mac OS X Snow Leopard on both Mac and that could be the reasoning of the problem, but the printer works without any problem. It just seems to be the scanner itself.

    Thanks in advance.

    On the right column is where you tell the file name, type, location, etc.  When you click on the Scan button it saves it (he actually does scan yet).

    Define a location and a file name to test.
