HP Office Jet 6600: HP Office Jet will not scan or print

Whenever I try to copy or scan I get an error message "Unable to scan, copy or send a fax."  I tried all the solutions, and none of them works.  I have spent a whole day on this problem and still have no solution.  It prints very well.

I used the Solution Finder & update from HP - HP Officejet full feature software and driver: recommended.  It worked!  I now can I print, copy and scan.  Thanks HP!

  • I have a Photosmart 6510 which prints OK but will not scan. Printer msg = "none found computer."

    I have a HP Pavilion a730n with you-verse connected Windows XP.  I know the SSID name and it is displayed in the Wireless Setup Wizard but never received the installation of u-Verse password I tried like 6 different passwords without a bit of luck.  I do not have the Scan to manage many one able to complete the installation process until I have install the wireless part.  What is my next step.

    Hello foxsweets

    I don't think that the printer can work properly by plugging into the router with USB. I noticed that you said that you don't have the password wireless for your network. The article below will help you find it.

  • Photosmart 7510 will not scan. Print, fax, Eprint, everything works, but not software for scanning

    I spent over 10 hours on the phone with Technical Support, Cloud Computing service and an escalation of HP handler.  The escalation of HP Manager ran a cleaner tool to remove completely all HP printer software and reinstalled.  Now, everything works except for analysis.

    Using the utility to scan the PC gives HP, "the series of HP Photosmart 7510 was not found"

    Using Scan of the computer for the printer display gives, "make sure that the HP printer software is installed.  I can, however, scan-to-one chip memory inserted in the computer, but is produces a jpg file and I need PDF.  All scanning software worked before technical support and escalation of HP is involved.

    Hi Bob,

    I discovered that Windows has made a number of updates to security on my computer.  Therefore, windows do not see the 7510 as a device scan and judged that he was a suspect and deactivated engine part analysis of the HP software.

    Reinstall the printer as a wireless printer, and then by reactivating the printer to scan, my HP software came back and now everything works as advertised.

    I think you were on the right track.  Then analysis stops on an HP printer without apparent reason, check if there's any recent Windows updates.  If so, reinstall the printer as a new wireless printer.

    Thanks for your comments!

    Hello Plypal

    You can try the HP scan diagnostic utility first, but in general the failure of the Scanner is a hardware problem that must be repaired. You can find the number of the media on the link below as well as the link to the Diagnostic utilities.

    HI Black-Rhino,

    The pop up message is probably caused by the following software (software HP PSC & Office Jet). I want to uninstall this software using the Control Panel Add/Remove Programs, and then, when you connect your printer to the computer, Windows 7 detects hardware and automatically installs the correct driver. A notification lets you know when the installation starts and when it is completed. You are not required to download any software or insert the product CD.

  • Range of printers HP C4860/driver installation problems - no driver? / will not scan

    Yesterday, after some small problems printing and indications that there may be a driver problem, I reinstalled the full software and drivers from the HP website.  When installing to the step where you plug in the usb cable, the software would not recognize the printer (even though XP recognized it and it was listed in the hardware of the system).  I downloaded the troubleshooting program and ran the scan.  He stopped at the level "pilot" and would go no further.  I tried to reinstall the software several times on the site (full and short versions and also on the CD) but still no luck.

    Symptoms: I can print from a variety of programs (Open Office, web, Notepad, MS Paint, etc.).  Can not scan from printer touchpad or computer.  Screen HP Solution Center shows only the option "transfer of images.  Help!

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is particularly bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

    Hello

    • What were the changes made before the issue started?
    • What version of Windows operating system do you use?

    You can view these methods:

    Method 2:

Thanks in advance.

    No problem.  I'm always happy to help you.  Looks like you might be on the right track with the cable.  What you are discribing it seems it's a communication problem, more of a problem with the drivers.  Make sure that you do not use a USB cable that is more than 6 feet (2 m).  Anything more than that and the loss of signal can cause problems like this.  Let me know what happens.
