    Try to download the HP Printer Control on the App Store app. It should support your printer and there's always the sweep feature.

  • HP OfficeJet 8600 Premium: Scanning to the desktop

    Hello

    I use the HP OfficeJEt 8600 Premium and I would add three computers to the scan function, so when I scan a document, I can choose the computer I would like to than the scan-to-file.

    I would like to know how to configure the folder so that it scans a folder on the desktop, titled 'Scans' against the 'Document' default folder.

    Today, I spent a few hours playing with it, following the instructions on the forum and further research on google. I could program to scan to computer 1.

    I then changed the name of the computer, somewhere in the HP Scan Utility preferences... then on the touch screen of the printer performs, under scan > not scan to computer, NO computer has appeared.

    I would like if anyone can break it down for me. How can I program it to allow all 3 computers connected wirelessly, to receive scans to their individual workstations. ALL 3 are Mac.

    SECOND-

    I want to program this tray 1 can be white paper and tray 2, letterhead. Have not spent time on it yet, but would love if anyone knows.

    Hi @cass321,

    I can certainly help you to scan to your computer and edit your destination folder. I understand that you do not want you can scan all 3 of your computers when you scan from the front panel of the printer. Please take a look on the following document, you can find frequently asked questions particularly useful: HP Officejet Pro 8600 Series printer - scanner to a computer, email, memory device, or network folder.

    What about using it the 2nd test paper for paper replacement types, please take a look on the following document, I suspect it will answer questions you might have: HP Officejet Pro 8600 e-all-in-one printer series (N911) - setting up the printer to print and copy of tray 1 and tray 2.

  • 8710: 8710 double scan from the ADF

  • HP Envy 100 - impossible to activate the scan from the printer

    I use an iMac end of 2012 and spin the Mavericks. Envy is connected to my WiFi.

    I was never able to get the urge to turn on a scan from the printer. When I press on the analysis on the printer, I get 3 options and choose 'computer '. I can get some information from introduction to scanning the computer. He says this analysis for computer is activated automatically when the printer is first set up and I need to have installed the HP printing software. This means to me that something has not been properly Setup and I can't work it out. I just updated my software as a result of Mavericks. I regularly print to the printer and am able to activate a scan of my computer.

    I read a few posts on the software uninstallation. If necessary, I don't know what needs to be uninstalled and reinstalled and how I could do that.

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you

    HI - my apologies for the slow response.

    Would it not possible to check to see if "Scan to Computer" is enabled in the utility application from HP?  This application must be in the folder Applications/Hewlett-Packard.

    Once the application opens, you may need to select your device if it is not already selected.  The configuration option "Scan to Computer" should appear at the bottom of the document window (see attachment "Utility HP - selected ENVY").

    Try to open the "Scan to Computer" configuration item and display settings.  Please refer to attachments "utility HP - Scan to computer do not activated" and "Utility HP - compatible computer Scan" for what that might look like if the feature is enabled or disabled.

    Let me know what you see.

    Also - since your connection to the printer on a wireless network, have you tried to move the printer closer to the router or wireless access point wireless?  I'm curious to know if there may be some intermittent network connectivity that is to interrupt the function computer scanning.  I would try to move the printer right next to the wireless router access point / wireless to see if that helps the issue.

    I will continue to work on this issue for you to get the help you need.

  • ScanJet adf scanner c7670a stopped automatically feeding. It scans from the glass. OSX 10.4.11

    suddenly the scanjet adfc7670a stopped automatically feeding paper.

    It scans from the glass distillers. the OS is OSX 10.4.11.

    a console error message indicates an error with USB which led me to believe that he could be on low power USB.

    to test I used a powered USB hub. No not the USB message in the console and the adf does not always work.

    I checked for paper jam. Although no paper jam, I went through the hatch opening procedure etc. still no go.

    There is a mention of the worn rollers. How will I know if the rollers are warn out before I go and buy a roller kit?

    any other ideas?
