HP M277dw: Can't scan my computer directly

Just bought a new HP all in one printer/scanner HP M277dw.  I live in the country and the only internet access I have is my personal hotspot which is my Iphone.  How to scan directly to a file on my computer.  Scan to PC is not an option in the menu analyze.  Only scan-to-USB, Email or network.

Hello

Scanning to a computer by the software is not supported on HP Laserjet printers.

By connecting the pritner to yoru PC with an ethernet cable or wireless you can scan from the printer itself to send or to a shared network folder.

With a USB connection, you described, you run a scan from the PC and not the pritner screen.

To scan from your PC launch HP Scan application, under start > applications > HP > your model of printer > HP Scan:

  • Officecjet 8600 Pro: can not scan to computer

    At the printer for a few years. Started by, scan to computer worked.

    Then it would work after a reboot of the pc for a period of time before stopping.

    Now, I can not work at all.

    I * think * this is part of an update of the firmware, the printer automatically.

    Attempt to activate scan of the computer in the HP utility, it says 'Communication error. Impossible to comminucate with device.

    However print and scan from the pc works fine, so the printer communicates. In addition, utility HP can see other things such as ink levels.

    Suggestions welcome.

    Hey @Ian_O,

    I see you encounter some problems with the scanning of your Officejet Pro 8600 e-all-in-one printer to your computer Mac OSX 10.11. I can help you with that.

    To start, make sure that the printer is plugged directly into a wall outlet, not a surge protector. Once done:

    1. If the printer is connected to your Mac via a USB cable, remove it.
    2. Click on your Apple icon, system preferences and printers and Scanners.
    3. Hold down the control panel and click the icon of your printer on the left.
    4. Click on reset printing system.
    5. Open Applications, Hewlett-Packard and run Uninstall HP.
    6. Restart your Mac.
    7. Download the latest drivers by clicking on this link.

    At this point, you should be able to print and scan. If you are unable to scan, please let me know how the printer is connected to your Mac and I will be able to help you further.

    Please let me know the results after following the above. If you are able to scan, click on accept solution. If you appreciate my help, please click on the thumbs up icon. The two icons are below this post.

  • All-in-one HP Photosmart C6280 not connected to the internet, and can not scan to computer

    My HP Photosmart C6280 all-in-one not connected to the internet, and can not scan to the computer.  I got it for a few years and must plugged into my Macbook to print, but now I want to use it to scan photos directly to my computer.  Can someone help me to do this?  Much appreciated!  (Not sure where are my original softward records!)

    Oh, OK, well this isn't probably the problem, but for good measure, you should get the latest version of the software for your printer from the "support & drivers" link at the top of this page.

    In the meantime, we will reset the printing system:

    -Go to System Preferences > Print & Fax
    -Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - This will remove ALL your printers!
    -Select the sign more to add a printer. Top of the window, Select the default tab . Search for the printer, select it, and wait until the button 'Add' becomes available. Until it clicks.

    Hello Robin,.

    Thank you very much for your answers and your efforts! My sincerest apologies for not knowing that Windows 7 Professional 64 bit rested not with the tool! I learned something new from you and thank you so much for this!

    We can try level 3 or 4 uninstall manually, instead of running the tool. I understand that the tool would be the easiest method. Here are the steps for you.

    Of the Original installation CD:

    1. Insert the CD in the drive and then cancel Setup

    2. open "Computer", and then right click on CD drive and open

    3 open the Util folder

    4 open the CCC folder

    5 If you have an HP computer, run the L3uninstall.exe. If you have a computer not HP, run the L4uninstall.exe

    6. once the uninstall is complete, restart the computer

    7 run the Accessories\ System Tools Disk Cleanup

    8. perform a clean boot

    9. run the download to reinstall the printer ( HP Officejet Pro Full Feature software and driver )

    If the software has been downloaded and extracted the download of the driver for your system:

    1. click on start and type %temp% in the search box, open the folder

    2. Locate and open the folder starting with 7z (example: 7zS2356) (if there is more than one, choose the most recent folder)

    3 open the Util folder

    4 open the CCC folder

    5 If you have an HP computer, run the L3uninstall.exe. If you have a computer not HP, run the L4uninstall.exe

    6. once the uninstall is complete, restart the computer

    7 run the Accessories\ System Tools Disk Cleanup

    8. perform the clean boot

    (9 download drivers and full software features HP Officejet Pro Full Feature software and driver )

    I really hope that does the trick!

  • OfficeJet Pro 8625: Scan to computer & printer HP Assistant

    I got a new 8625 Pro of OfficeJet and struggled with the configuration of the analysis feature.  I ran the software print and Scan doctor, who said he fixed a few problems, and now I can finally scan my computer.  However, I still have a problem with scanning the computer to the printer.  When I try to scan to the computer, there is a message on the printer screen that indicates that this feature must be enabled in the Printer Wizard.  However, when I open the Printer Wizard and click on manage the scan to the computer, nothing happens - the software simply does not.  Other selections in the Printer Wizard seem to work very well - just not this one.

    Hi thanks for dogster , for getting back to me!

    I appreciate you trying these steps. I know that you have reinstalled in the past, but there is a specific set of measures, I would try.

    I would say uninstalling the software of the printer.

    Once it is uninstalled, I suggest you put your system in clean boot mode in the configuration of Microsoft.  You can do this by following this document: How to perform a clean boot in Windows.

    Once the computer is in clean boot mode, I would suggest to reinstall the HP printer install wizard for Windows.

    Please let me know how it goes!

  • Photosmart 309 a habit of scanning the computer.

    Hi guys,.

    IM about to throw this POS out the window... For some reason, I can't scan my computer... I can print, I can even, scanning to a USB key.

    I uninstalled the HP software, and tried to use the Apple drivers, I get a timeout. So I thought I would like to take the HP.com drivers - still no good.

    When you try to scan from the computer, I don't get an error, HP Scan, will just in an infinite loop trying to find the device.

    Since the device, I try the two Scan for computer - add iPhoto library or open in preview.

    I get this error:

    If you are using Snow Leopard and you have the HP software before Snow Leopard (either from a CD that is not marked as compatible with 10.6 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and had the HP software on your Mac before you upgraded), you must uninstall the software by using the "scrubber".  If you do this and you installed from the CD originally, re - install from the CD and uninstall in this way:

    Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard / click Uninstall HP
    Click on continue
    Highlight your device in the left pane
    Hold down the Ctrl and Opt Cmd and click on uninstall
    There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall all hp software. (At this point, if you continue, all HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    Click on continue and let it finish

    Restart your Mac

    Now run a software update.

    Finally, download and install the "Full Featured" driver and software from the "Support & drivers" link at the top of this page.

  • How can I avoid firefox reset my browser preferences when my antivirus software scans my computer

    Starting on 19/02/2013 every time that my antivirus software scans my computer (per day), various Firefox browser preferences are being reset. (It seems that Firefox can be reset to the default value.) My home page is reset to mozilla etc...

    I have reset Firefox, un-installed and re-installed Firefox to no avail.
    Each time the computer is scanned my browser preferences are lost.
    

    The following information system:
    Windows 7 pro 64-bit
    AVG antivirus 2013 current build.

    Firefox v19.
    

    I don't remember anyone to another report that AVG has done this. In fact, it would be useful to know exactly what did AVG. Your home page is stored in a file named prefs.js in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). It deletes this file? Replacement of a 'clean' copy it right? He characterizes the read-only file so that your changes are not saved between sessions?

    Could you make a backup copy of your profile folder if you have around comparison after running the analysis? You will need to store on a USB key and it is not be analyzed, too.

    To access this folder, you can use

    Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

    Navigate from one level to Ctrl + drag the folder to the destination of the copy.

  • I have can´t scan in Officejet 6700. Printing from the computer works perfectly.

    I have a new 6700 Officejet connected with the USB cable to the computer. (Windows XP) Printing from the computer works perfectly. Sannen works onl + y from time to time. When the attempt at analysis, he says that there is no connection between the scanner and the computer. I changed the USB cable to exclude damage to the cables. I tried all the help files for HP without result. Who please can tell me what is happening

    I think I know where banhien is trying to guide you. I'll explain his instructions in more detail below.

    1. make sure you are on the desktop view.
    2. double-click on the icon on your desktop that resembles your printer.
    3. under the section titled scan, you should see "Manage Scan to Computer".
    4. click on "Manage the Scan to Computer" and a window that's going to Enable.
    5. click on activate to activate computer scanning.

    If the icon is not on the desktop, or does not work, you may uninstall and reinstall the printer. If you need to do this, be sure to use the latest version of the software following the link. Hope this helps to clear things up a bit.

  • Photosmart HP 5520. Can not scan to my computer

    Photosmart HP 5520. I can print from my computer very well, but cannot scan from the printer TO my computer. Message is "connection error". This happens sometimes, but usually I can fix in any turn off, unplug and start again. Today, nothing works. This is getting tiresome. Printing works fine.  BTW, I do not control the router & it can just turn on and off. I'm not technologically savvy; I just want the thing to work.

    Hello

    The scan of the computer is disabled by default (I don't know why guys/girls software desinged like that). On my machine, driver for Windows 8 is much better (even same exe file). Turn it on by following the steps below (Please note: for Windows machines)

    Double-click the icon of the printer on the desktop,

    Click on manage the Scan of the computer.

    Click Activate

    You can check the last four too.

    Kind regards.
