  • J6450 will not scan since the upgrade to snow leopard

    My J6450 will not scan since the upgrade to snow leopard. I can print fine but when I try and scan is says sorry, scanner could not be initialized (Scanner not found.)

    You scan the front of the unit?  The software included in Sl does not support that.  Also note the HP Scan Pro included in the 10.5 software will not work with 10.6.  The 10.5 software and delete the print queue.  Make sure your 10.6 is update 10.6.1 and go here to download and install the HP software for 10.6 and Setup for your J6540.  You should be able to scan after that.

  • HP Envy 4500 will not print computer

    Hello

    My HP Envy 4500 works perfectly for some time now.  Unfortunately, it stopped printing from my Dell laptop, running Windows7. It scans to the laptop very well.  It copies fine, and it prints from my iPhone fine.

    I've reviewed a ton of messages and tried many things:

    * Uninstall/reinstall wireless (at least 8 times) - via the website https://123.hpconnected.com/activate/woobe/ENVY4500

    * Uninstall/reinstall via USB

    * ran doctor utility printing/scanning (or whatever it's called) and says it all looks very good

    sending a test with a HP tool page is fine, however, the internal test via the tool HP Print page fails

    I'm losing my mind and would be really grateful for the help.

    Thank you!

  • 4500 envy: Envy 4500 will not work after ink change

    I changed the ink cartridge in my HP Envy 4500.  It prints the alignment fine page.  I put on the screen to scan and it repeat me that it is «forever» scanning until I have Cancel.  Then, it is stuck on cancel until I have force a stop down.    I'm ready to take a hammer to this printer.

    Hi @Paulaayn,

    Please go on the HP Forums! I'd be happy to let you save your craving for 4500 sledge-hammering.

    I understand your printer is stuck in a mode of scanning and based on your description, it seems that it is the alignment page that didn't scan. You have the printer connected directly to a wall outlet or is this a surge protector or power bar? Even if you have used a surge protector/power bar this whole time and you feel that this is not the case, please connect to a wall outlet so that we can eliminate the source of energy as the primary cause.   Questions when it is connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power

    In this document, you will see, QUESTION: questions or problems may arise when a HP LaserJet printer is connected to a UPS (UPS), a power strip or a surge protector

    ↑ This is not limited to the Laserjet printers.

    I ask because I wonder if the printer does not have enough power to run the task. If you do not have the printer connected directly to a wall jack already, we will perform a hard reset. To do this, leave the printer and unplug the power cable for 1 minute. While it is unplugged, press and hold the power button on the printer for 10-15 seconds to release built his power, then after the minute, plug the printer in.

    Please let me know the results of your efforts, and I'll get back to you. Thank you.

    Jam of transport

    The printer cartridges can not move.

    Open the cartridge access door, cleare any jammed paper or obstructions.

    Make sure that the ink cartridge levers are lowered & engaged,.

    The cartridges are stuck on the left side.  I brought the printer Staples where I bought it and nobody could find no obstruction.   He went from 90 days, but it's less than a year for the guarantee.

    HP does not seem to have an email address or phone number to call for this situation.   Just need to know if my desire to 4500 can be fixed for free under the guarantee.    It is the only place to contact.   I called the three digits as points of service and all three are not points of service.

  • HP7520 all-in-one will not scan in the document

    I'm scanning very old recipe cards.  No matter how to activate the map, or when I put it on the screen, at least one edge is cut, including the automatic feeding system, which is my preference by train.  The cards are 3 x 5 or 4 x 6.  I can't find anywhere for this HP7520 the settings.

    Barbjth2,

    Welcome to the HP Forum.

    We know not if you want to scan in receipts in the form of images or text.

    Regardless of the end point, the following might help.

    With the complete installation of the software functionality for the printer and assuming a recent version of the Windows operating system, you should have the shortcut Wizard printer installed on your desktop.

    Double-click the Printer Wizard shortcut > scan a Document or Photo >

    Select Photo of Document OR file file (as you prefer) >

    This starts the process to create the sweep.

    On the side right of the menu, under the Scan size >

    Select, in the menu dropdown > any scanning area

    The rest of the selections can generally be left as default values, even if it's for you and your situation.

    • In order to ensure that the results meet your expectations, do not forget that the scan preview is CHECKED.

  • iBooks will not synchronize to the MacBook Pro 10.11.2 pdf

    iBooks is synchronization new folders and collections that I do. It is the manual purchased based synchronization. It will not sync all manuals and techniques pdf I have on my iPhone 6 + is my MacBook Pro el Captain 10.11.2 running or my new iPad pro...?

    This seems to be a common problem - but there must be a solution or something I'm missing... Right?

    None of the pdf files are protected. Many are created on my Mac and placed in iBooks on my phone, e-mail or online.

    IVe tried itunes sync tunes - does nothing. Ive tried to convert iTunes library and only got all of my audio books books move over, which I didn't...

    Help... This really *... As I just upgraded my storage up to 1 TB so I can finish the icloud storage switch...

    Files PDF and EPUB no ibookstore sync via the cloud, you must copy or synchronize them everywhere where you want - only ibooks (while they are still in the store and you don't move countries) will potentially show in the cloud for redownloading on your other computers/devices.

  • DeskJet HP3054A will not connect to the Mac running Yosemite

    The HP Deskjet 3054 lost connection for Mac.  Mac Airport utility assistance and the option WPS on the printer, the printer connects to the network, but when the countdown on the printer control panel reached about 15 seconds, he says "WPS Error" and the wifi of the printer is disabled.  Anyone know why the wifi the printer stops just before filling the countdown?

    Hello @3054AMacUser!

    I don't know what WiFi is turn off until you have completed the Setup, but I have another technique to get the printer on your network. I'm sure you know, a full pilot of features for the Mavericks is not available for your printer, or from the CD supplied with your printer from the HP website.  This document applies to the HP printers supported in versions of Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), 10.7 (Lion), 10.8 (Mountain Lion), 10.9 (Mavericks) and 10.10 (Yosemite) with only drivers available via Apple Software Update.

    I can help you put the printer on your network wireless software. I use this method for iPads, iPhones and other devices that have no software.

    1. Restore default network settings on the printer by pressing the wireless button, by going to settings and then restore the default settings. The wireless button should start then flashes, this means that it is now in autowireless mode.
    2. To connect to the network that broadcasts the printer. It is usually HP-setup - 3054a and then a part of the MAC address, or a variant of the name of the printer. Always wireless light will blink on the printer at this stage, which is normal since it is not a real ad-hoc connection.
    3. Load up the built-in webserver (EWS) in the browser of your mobile device. The default IP for autowireless is 192.168.223.1.
    4. Go to the tab network along the top of the SAP.
    5. Click Setup wireless along the left side Assistant to start to set up the printer.

    You have now completed the configuration of wireless network, follow the next 3 steps to start printing.

    1. Blue wireless light will be solid, put the Mac on your network.
    2. Add the printer in system preferences.
    3. Print

  • HP Photosmart 7510 not scan to computer (MacBook Air)

    Hello

    I have a HP Photosmart 7510 connected wireless to my home network and I can't select my computer when parsing the list for the computer on the printer.

    I use a MacBook Air with OS X 10.8.2

    I've updated all my drivers, reinstalled the software and disconnected/reconnected to the network several times.

    I can print to the 7510 my computer.

    I can scan the 7510 using the HP software on my computer

    I am unable to find 'activate Scan to Computer' in the settings on my computer (and all instructions on this Web site are for Windows)

    We organize also several computers window on our network, and these show all in the analysis of computer selection and can be analyzed successfully to. (without going through the HP software installed!)

    What is missing for me to scan to my computer? Scan to other computers is not an option (for reasons of confidentiality) and scanning the computer is also not ideal, because I bought the printer for the analysis of it infrastructure.

    Thank you

    Emma

    Hi Emma,

    If the Scan of the computer does not appear under the HP utility, more liekly something went wrong in the HP installation wizard.

    Try these steps and let me know if that can help you:

    First reset the system as follows:

    * Be aware that reset the printer system will eliminate any existing queue and reset all custom settings driver.

    Click on the Apple menu and then click on System Preferences.
    Select Print & Scan.
    Right click (or Ctrl + click) your product with the Printers list in the left panel and then click on reset printing system.
    Click OK to confirm the reset.
    Type your user name and password.
    Click OK. The printing system resets.

    Then, go to Applications\Hewlett - Packard\Device Utilities and follow the HP installation wizard.

    Now open the HP Utilitiy and search the computer Scan in the scan parameters section.

    Kind regards
