HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus - scanning missing feature

I have used my printer for a little over a year - without problem and was very pleased with its performance.

A few weeks ago I started to see messages that says that nothing is more anywhere for the scans to be sent. I was very curious about this message but I had not been using the scanner function. A few weeks ago, I clicked on the printer

icon to scan a document and the analysis option has been totally absent. My printer seems to have no capacity

to scan. I uninstalled and reinstalled my printer. This feature is still missing. Any suggestions?

Hi ABI-sanjose,.

With the instructions I provided, there should be fewer steps to scan

If you add the HP Scan icon on your desktop you register in fact just a few clicks!

If you don't want to see if you can get the scan options to return in the HP printer Assistant icon however, you can try to uninstall/reinstall the printer via the HP print and Scan Doctorsoftware. You need to browse every print of difficulty or difficulty analysis, then when that finishes you should reach a screen that looks like the screenshot below, once there, select the option uninstall/reinstall and who must return to the wizard in the printer to its former glory

Hope this helps!

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus Scan quality issue

    Hello

    I just set up my HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus, and everything seems to work properly.  I am really disappointed by the quality of the images so, so I thought I'd see if anyone has experienced the same problem?

    The scanned images are very dynamic, but are too.  Detail is lost in the scan either because the brightness, or because the scanner is not properly using the resolution I have him ask to scan (600 dpi).  I have tried various different brightness and contrast settings in the scan dialog, nothing helps.  Printing HP and Scan Doctor reported no problem.  Increase the resolution of scanning on the 8600 is not helped either.

    I joined a segment of an image of the 8600 and a lot cheaper all-in-one I expected to replace, a canon mp630.  I have bought the 8600 because the scanner component had good reviews, but based on my experience, that I'm starting to have my doubts!

    Please let me know if you think there's nothing I can do to improve the quality of the scans?

    I use Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit.

    Thank you

    Pete

    8600 scan 600 dpi (Note lack of paper grain)

    Canon MP630, 600 dpi (capture of paper grain, wash the details)

    Unfortunately, I must point out that the replacement was no better.  It's a real shame, old flat scanner HP I was replacing with the ACM was high quality, but the Pro 8600 scanner was simply not enough good.

    Ultimately I exchanged for another manufacturer MFP that produces a large part analysis better (even if printing is not as good).

    I had much rather have paid more for a higher quality scan on the HP, but this option is not available to me, which is a shame!  On the 8600 Pro scan color reproduction was great, but there not only to capture the details.

    You can adjust for color problems in the software, but if the detail is not captured, you can't put it in!

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: scans with USB, Ethernet 10 Mbit/s but with 1 Gbps

    I installed my router a Netgear router from 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps router TP LINK Archer C8. I use a printer more Officejet Pro 8600 with scanner. Scanned the fin on the Netgear router, it is not scan with TP link sanner. I get an error "Scanner communication cannot be established. I changed to a USB connection and was able to scan successfully. I noticed the printer only has 10 and 100 a half and full speed duplex settings. The scanner is not compatible with a 1 Gbps puts? I uninstalled and reinstalled several times printing software.

    UPDATE : tried the HP Scan and Capture application in the Windows store. Works very well. Must be some type of problem with the native drivers scan and connections broadband.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: Scan of the computer does not work with Win8.1 [solved: problem with USB3 Boost]

    Since I have installed 8.1 (pro), I can't use my 8600 software Pro for scanning the computer (via USB). It seems that there is no communication with the printer regarding the scanning software, but printing as usual.

    Tried to use the HP printer Assistant: when I click on the button "scan a Photo Document or", I get a message "inaccessible Scanner. Also restarted the printer.

    When I try to scan from Photoshop, the system first finds the printer, but it fails to connect.

    Update HP says that my system is up to date.

    HP Print and Scan Doctor 4.2 concludes and tells the printer on the welcome panel and seems to be able to communicate with him, up to a point.

    It gives me a error 'pilot' (sorry if is not called in English - he takes over my keyboard language, which is French and says "Pilot error") and says that no communication could be created between the printer and the driver for scanning, and I have to restart the computer...

    So I did and revived the software of the doctor, who gave me the same error message. This time, I clicked on 'Ignore' and let things. He ran a "Scan" Test twice and said that everything was going well or had been repaired. But strangely nothing on the printer during these 'tests '. And in the end, as he offered to do a scan test myself, I clicked on OK and I got the error message "inaccessible Scanner" again.

    Then I did my scans on a USB key, as I have done a few times already, and has gone very well. But I'd be happy to have this function "Scan to computer" back. How?

    Thanks in advance 23. It is resolved! See to the end.

    I use McAfee (All Access - Total Protection). All green. I did some research using 'Paint', 'Windows Fax' and 'Scan' and checked all the results using McAfee: 'does detect any items that require your attention.

    Here is a series of screenshots when you run printing HP and doctor Scan:

    I click on "Scanning troubleshooting..."

    I click on 'Ignore' right now because I know now that a restart will not help, but I have already tried (see my first post).

    It seems that the problems have been repaired. And if I click on 'Scan Test', it seems too good, initially...

    But if I go on and click on "Scan", bye bye:

    Everything is the same as the first time, as I remember.

    I checked services: dependencies are OK (RPC is in the WIA Service dependencies). Both services are "Running" and "automatic". I stopped and restarted WIA. No change.

    I launched a sfc/scannow:

    Before that, I changed the USB (a new one): no change.

    AND THEN: I unplugged the USB cable connecting the port (USB3) standard (directly on the rear panel of the motherboard) and plugged into a PCI USB3 card. And all was well with the scan.

    Do you think this says something about my motherboard (Asus X 79 Deluxe brand new) or on the Officejet?

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus - ADF scanning problem

    Hello

    I recently bought this printer and used without problem for almost 2 months. However, right now I am struggling with the ADF.

    When I put a document to scan by ADF, I have a thin, black line on re-impressions. It is on the right side of the page, starts from everything at the top and goes down all the way.

    I have even if it is a kind of alignment line (you know when we write try, or its composition, leave us space on both sides)

    This problem does not exist when I scan and print documents of old school way, aka analysis usual. Only the ADF documents'ed have this problem a little. (The thin black line on things reprinted)

    Any recommendations?

    Best regards

    Update: I did what jason_h suggested in step 1 and it worked, this can be closed:

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus: vertical line when scanning

    I get a vertical line when I scan using the document feeder.  I do not understand when scanning the glass plate. I need assistance to access the mirror slider.  I raised the lid for the loading of documents, but I couldn't find out how to get under the rollers to clean the mirror. Thank you

    The document here can help solve the black lines to scan using the ADF on your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus.  From my experience this is almost always caused by a specification on the thin glass on the side left which is used for scanning using the ADF.  Cleaning of this area as described in the above document should solve the problem.  If the initial cleanup does not resolve the problem, it can help to shine a bright flashlight almost parallel to the glass.  For a line on the left side of the printed page, the place will be toward the front of the printer, if the line is on the right side of the document, it must correspond to a specification to the rear of the printer.

    HI, how can I scan a picture and only the witout the rest. On a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus?

    When I scan I got my photo and all white for the rest of the screen

    It has no function of machine harvest in the 8600 software. To get the exact size, you will need to manually set the size for the scans that you do. You can find the setting by clicking on the blue link to advanced settings in the first scan window. Will take you to a place that will allow you to change the size of the scanning area. Hope that helps.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus the Scanner Software

    Hello

    I'm a big fan of HP products.  My last several printers, scanners and computers were all HP.

    I recently bought the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus to replace an older machine with similar features (ADF, duplex, etc.).  The previous machine was also an HP printer.

    The problem I encounter is that the software appears to have been downgraded.  The software on my previous machine had the ability to automatically analyze the photos laid on the flat bed scanner in individual jpg.  With the software on this computer, it seems that I need to manually crop each image.  The options for optimization of each picture, eliminating scratches, automatically adjust color, sharpness, etc. are all gone.

    I really miss these features.  I found that I had been using a "basic" version of the software.  I installed the full version and found it a little different, but it still lacks the automatic selection of the image and image tweaks I did this inveterate of.

    Is it possible to recover these options?

    Thank you

    -MrXmas
