  I need to work in order to scan a batch of documents and consolidate in 1 file.

  The native application of the Mac scanner handles scan page by page and saves it on my desk. but I really need the batch option to work.

  I followed all the standard procedures to reinstall the software, resets etc, but I'm still having the problem.

  Under the HP utility screen, I have the scan to computer option on the bottom of the menu. I click on that and extract information. Then I get this message as well as the red dot

  "The HP software required for the Scan of the computer could not be located on this computer. Please download and install the latest HP recommended software for your device to http://www.hp.com/supportand then try again. »

  I made sure all the software is installed and I still have the same question.

  I can connect to the printer and scan of the web also. I just seems to be a problem with the HP utility App and the printer.

  Any advice would be appreciated.

  Thank you very much.

• Activate the Scan of the computer? OfficeJet 6500 a Plus

  Does anyone know how do enable this each time you want to scan? God forbid you try to scan from adobe first... then you need to restart the grid to get everything to work. I wish that they would reveal this shit FIRST before buying a simple all-in-one.

  Hi realjax,

  In this version of the software we tried to give the customer analysis options to manage their activation to the parameters of the computer. The printer was still able to scan from the software. In this way our software was not using the resources of system of clients all the time. In later versions of this software, we took notice of the customer and activated the scanning to computer active during the installation of the printer.

  Activate the connection to scan to the computer

   

  Follow these steps to activate the connection of scanning between the HP product and the computer.

• 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.

• Cannot scan to the computer. Photosmart 6510

  I have just purchase a photosmart 6510 and I cannot scan to the computer.  The printer tells me that I need to activate this via the printer software.  I know that I have installed all the software from the disc supplied.

  I can't find where I have activate the scan of the computer on my laptop.  Support information tells me to click the icon for the printer to my desktop, I do not have!  I tried going through the control panel and impossible to find something there.

  I go in the HP folder in my Start menu and click on scan HP that I get the following message "the machine HP photosmart 6510 series is not found".  I don't have a problem with printing at all.

  Tried to start printing and scanning of doctor and who did not make a difference. (In fact, the scan option came not on it).

  How can I fix this please?  I'm running Windows Vista Home premium.

  Hello.  Thanks for your reply.

  I've sorted really the problem now.  But let me explain what it was.

  I tried tool doctor who recommended you after browsing these forums, without success.  In fact, when I ran the scanner, he told me that he had no problem with printing, but there was no mention of the scanning anywhere.

  In fact, I uninstalled all HP software, removed the printer from my control panel.  Then reinstalled the software from the disc and then installed the printer again (I did things the opposite of the front walkway).  And the scanner function now works.

  My suggestion: allow from your computer and you'll have more options of its software too. Please try (Windows):

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

  b click on Manage scan of the computer,

  (c) allow.

  Kind regards.

• HP Deskjet 3050 a J611n: scan of the computer is no longer available since windows 10 download

  After downloading windows 10 to my laptop last week surprise, I can't scan from this upgrade and get the message that the scan to the computer is no longer available. I tried different routes to make it work again in settings, but I can't get the article that will allow me to choose scan of the computer. I also seem to have something in 10 called windows webscan, I can't activate it either. Any ideas how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

  I'm sorry it doesn't - there are perhaps other issues (HP or Microsoft drivers and software) preventing to install printing software and works as expected.

  Migration from one operating system to another can be brutally hard on the file system.

  Going to bed.

  A few random ideas:

  When you try again - restart all:

  • Shut down / off everything, including the router (and all connected mobile devices) >
  • Leave the router (in condition off the coast) a few minutes > bootstrap router > wait a minute >
  • Start or computers on the network > mobile devices from start > printer start

  Remove any program of printing of programs and features

  Make sure that your Adobe Reader DC is on the latest version (and Flash, too)

  Printer's happiest with an Ethernet - and a static IP address if you have stability issues

  Run Windows updates several times after a migration; There are sometimes more than one session so that everything is loaded.   Check to see if you are ready to install the "other Microsoft" software with your Windows updates.  View history.  He tells you?  Not sure - always good to know what Microsoft adds to your system...

  Start (screen) > settings > update and security > Windows Update > Advanced Options

  If you are running McAfee security - you might need to update, reinstall it, or disable it temporarily.  (I don't really know this; I guess.)

  Switch your UAC (User Account Control) to "notify me only when apps to try to make changes...» "(slider / option second from the bottom):

  Control Panel > display icon > user accounts <> change user accounts control settings

• 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!

• HP Officejet 6700 Premium: HP6700 Scan of the computer

  Wasn't able to scan to the computer.  Follow the instructions in the Help Guide.  Under all programs select stock Scanner, double-click on handle scanning to computer and then click Activate.  I don't have those options available in the HP printer folder.

  I reinstalled the software and still do not have these options.  The only way I can turn on the scan of the computer is the installation of the printer software.

  Thank you, downloaded the software according to your instructions and installed.  I now manage scan computer option in the HP folder.
