Fax is disabled does not not on HP6600

I am trying to set up my printer HP6600 for fax and every time I go to the printer to set up the fax settings... .the printer responds that the fax is disabled and to contact the administrator. Please help me. Thank you

Welcome to the HP community @frustratedKat,

I read your post on your Officejet showing 6600 fax is disabled and wanted to send you my suggestion that might help! I recommend you try the restore to factory settings to see if this will help to clear the error on the printer. Let me know what happens!

On the printer, select Setup, tools, Restore Factory Defaults, Yes, restart the printer

Good luck

  • Printer installation problem. Watch is printers and fax machines, but does not print

    I had to move my printers due to a collapse of the motherboard.   I moved my HP DeskJet 710C from a computer (under XP SP3, through LPT1:, where he was part of a network home and works very well) to another computer, also under XP SP3 on the same network, but who doesn't have a printer port.   I replace the cable with a USB printer and I tried to install if via a port USB001 printer.   The machine seems to install the printer (manually - it is not automatically find) and it shows in the printers and Faxes folder.   However, it does not print.   Any document disappears into the other, is not listed as a document to print, but it does not reach the printer.    I did everything I can find listed on the HP web site and run the FixIt program nothing works.   A search for network printers, are looking for a printer, provides a list, of which some are listed as invalid.   I think that I had uninstalled to printers to my computer until I tried to install this printer.   Now, I wonder if these "invalid" entries are mucking up of my installation.   How can I remove 'Invalid printer' names in my list of installed printers.   It seems in any simple way.

    I have my sure others must have had similar problems, but I can't find it on the net.

    Any help would be welcome.

    Thank you

    I have found no useful HP support. They seem to only want to buy a new printer, but if I can't install my old I'll be able to install a new one? Or > when you think that you download using them, you actually download scanning for the third-party driver software, which has then finds all kinds of driver problems > and wants you to pay to get them replaced or updated.

    This isn't HP; That's the scammers try to sell you anything for an exorbitant price.

    As the computer receives automatic updates from Microsoft and works well otherwise, I do not trust software that detects problems everywhere in my machine. Or am I > stupid? Or is it driver/driver scanner software update that you can trust?

    Most of the pilot sites is not trustworthy. I used Device Doctor and found useful. There no drivers to download IIRC; It just tells you that drivers must update and where to find them. Here is an article on this subject (and no, that Thomas is not me):

    I'm still a little worried about 'Invalid printer' entries in my system network and feel that if I could get rid of them, I could make progress.

    What printer you put as a default? This should be where the printed document (Word of the device - expected :-)).

  • cover when to disable does not.

    Hi, I remember on some videos when the launch 360 that you could put your palm on the dial of the watch and the screen turns off. This does not work for me. I mean, 100% of the time it does not work for me. Do you have Motorola removed this feature? I remember to remove a similar feature on one of the droids earlier. Detection of pocket. The screen turns off when you put your phone in your pocket. In any case, do I need to put away or...? I have ambient wide display.

    It works fine for me (on 5.0.2). Please make sure that your palm any key the largest part of the screen to make it work. My wife always tries to make a dome with his Palm and does light without letting his Palm touching the thought of screen it would work like this, it doesn't work like that. You must let your palm touch the largest part of the screen to make it work, it is touch sensitive, lights NOT sensitive.

  • Problem with Windows Fax and Scan does not connect to the Internal Modem

    Just got a new Acer Aspire 5542-5416 computer laptop with Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium, 4 GB of Ram and a 320 GB hard drive. It has a 56 k modem integrated fax of like the old days, but I can't make it work. The laptop did not come with the Windows CD.

    If I open the program Windows Fax and Scan, it is not able to connect to the modem. Basically, if I click on tools > fax accounts > Add..., I get a box with 2 choices: to connect to a fax modem or connect to a fax on my network server. When I want to connect a fax modem I get a message that says: an error has occurred. Please, try the operation again later or contact your administrator. It allows me to do this then just clock OK and them I'm right where I started.

    While in Windows Fax and Scan, if I click on tools > fax settings... nothing happens. No menu settings or anything ever appears. Quite simply, the program does nothing. If I try tools > Fax Status Monitor... I get a box that says entrance exam status, ready to receive a fax. It has a blue progress bar as something takes over, but it gets about 1/100 to and never goes further or ends. There is no box, but there are 3 buttons: view details, answer call or cancel. If I hit details, I get an empty list. If I click on answer call I get an error that says that the fax service is not available.

    If I try tools > Options, general tab has only a single option box is checked: play a sound when come it to new messages. If I try to print a Word or PDF file to a fax using Fax in the printer list, I get the same box with 2 choices: to connect to a fax modem or connect to a fax on my network server, but I get the same error message: an error has occurred. Please, try the operation again later or contact your administrator.

    I've searched the Internet high and low for a solution but no luck. There is a lot of discussion about this problem, but none of the solutions work for me. If I go to Device Manager, the modem is working properly and if I click on the Modem query on the Diagnostics tab, it seems to be able to communicate with the modem very well. I tried to roll back the driver and updated again and still no luck, same problem. If I go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fax\Accounts in the registry, there is no subkeys under the folder accounts I can delete.

    Has anyone else had a similar problem? Is there any solution for this? I did a Windows Update last night and has not yet solve it. Thank you.

    Sorry about that.

  • I installed Firefox 2 days ago (Windows Vista) and my Fax / HP 6700 does not accept faxes now, how can I fix this problem?

    my Fax will not receive a fax.
    Is there some kind of firewall or something to prevent this?
    or a panel of control somewhere where I choose this option?
    I re set as the fax machine and that didn't help.
    None of your tutorials helped either. I couldn't find that anything related.
    I'm a small business and need my fax machine.

    Contact HP to set up your fax machine, like edmister said.

    Browsers (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome) have no interaction with your fax, fax are analog technology race on telephone lines, browsers are the digital technology, which even if it can be run on a phone line (as in DSL) has no impact on your fax.

  • HP Officejet 6600: Fax/copy/scanning does not work

    I'm unable to use my fax/copy/scan on the printer functions.  The printer works well when printing from the computer.  I've done all the troubleshooting... Disconnect, restart it (printer and computer), etc.  All the reports that I ran to the 'troubleshooting' return with all PASSES.  But when I re - try these functions, the printer display "starting fax" or "Start scan" and "start copy."  I've been here for the last 10 minutes trying to get a copy, and the screen is still showing "start copy".  And while they are 'begins', I am unable to 'x', so I put off the printer.  The printer is 2 years old and we bought the extended warranty expired 2 months ago thanks for any help you can provide.

  • Windows Fax and Scan does not appear in the start menu

    : I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium and you want to (a) send faxes via a modem local fax and b scan docs from a local scanner. I mean, there should be a program Windows fax and scan shown in the start menu. I clicked all programs on the start menu, and it doesn't always show. Suggestions?

    From: Hal

    Fax and scan is available in Windows Vista Business and Ultimate editions, it is not available in any of the Windows Vista Home editions.  Since you have a version of Windows Vista Edition family, the only option of fax is a third-party product.  These products work under Windows Vista:

    Given the above comes with the new USR modem, I don't know if it will work with no - USR modems.  Alternatively, you can send faxes via your Internet connection provided you are willing to pay for an Internet E - Fax service:

  • Snapshot.Policy.Disable does not work

    I would like to create a group of companies with vRealize Automation 6.2.2 that disable all user roles (includes the Manager of Group of professionals, administrator of fabric, the business group support and commercial users of the Group) to create snapshots of virtual machines.

    I read the documentation and see that there is a custom property called 'Snapshot.Policy.Disable' can do me a favor.

    But even after setting 'Allow the shots' to 'no' in configuration management plan actions and 'Snapshot.Policy.Disable' to 'true' in custom properties of the plan Director, I can always create snapshot as group leader, admin of fabric, the support of the group...

    I missed something?

    • Added the ability to disable the options of snapshot for all users, including the Group of professionals and user support Manager, if the snapshot is not enabled on the action plan.

    Please see notes for publication 6.2.3

    VMware vRealize Automation 6.2.3 Release Notes

    under what is the new article, you will find that Snapshot.Policy.Disable = true is a new feature introduced in this latest version.

    Since you are using the old version 6.2.2 you will not be able to use this custom property.

    Assuming that long ago, that you have installed Service Pack 1 for Windows XP, your problem may be a badly configured third-party firewall.  See http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/nip.nsf/4a29389c214c78ea88256c75005f451a/713afacbd4135e0a88256c77007e526f?OpenDocument

    HP7500A printer, just bought. Works very well except for the date. Because I must have proof of fax sending, it does not work.

    You have the date and time on the machine itself? to do:

    Go to the front screen of the printer and make sure that the printer screen is on the home screen, if it is not, the light house at the top left lights. If so, touch and it will take you to the home page, then right arrow once and select settings, scroll to preferences and select it. At the top you should see the date and time, select this option and enter the date and time.

    I would like to know if this helps or not.
