  I deleted and reinstalled the driver several times

  but nothing works

  whenever I try to scan something my printer, the hp scanning software begins to open on my imac, and their broken quickly

  If I try to open the program to scan my iMac, it crashes

  Help!

  I need to be able to use the scanner

  That is why in the first place, I bought the printer/scanner combo

  You must run the cleaner, if the question of fixing is not a standard uninstaller program.

  Uninstall in itself is not always solve the problem, so there is a 'scrubber' in the software that really cleans things out.*Note * run this will remove all software that has been installed, HP so you will need to reinstall all other HP printers that you have configured.

  Go to Applications/library/Hewlett Packard / click Uninstall HP

  Click on continue

  Highlight your device in the left pane

  Hold down the Ctrl and Opt, as well as Apple 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, this is why we do not run this thing all the time)

  Click on continue

  Let the brosseuse it is.

  After that, add your C4680 with printing and fax and let the operating system to search for updates and others. If it asks you if you want to download them, accept you.

• Photosmart C4680 - no scan

  Hello

  I just bought a Photosmart C4680 with a new Mac Book Pro in September. Printing and copy functions work well, but whenever I try to scan I get the message "an unknown error has occurred" and the scan is canceled out by the software itself. If I try to start a new search, I get a message that there is a communication problem with the scanner... I tried to restart, stop, change USB ports, uninstalling the software and reinstalling, nothing works. Any ideas?

  Hey people,

  Don't know what the guy said in German, I hope this helps you as well.  We saw this especially when there is a conflict between the old and the new software.  People will automatically run the software on the CD when they set up a new printer.  The problem is the CD is under 10.5, you don't specifically mention what OS you use, but you got the Mac in September, I'll assume it's Snow Leopard.

  Anyway,.

Try scanning from compurter or see the documentation. I've been watching other messages of the forum with similar questions, but can't find what they describe on my computer.

  I am currently using a Dell with Windows 7 computer.

  I don't know, but this could be the result of the disc it came with the impossibility to install (it says only Windows XP and Vista).

• missing OCR for Photosmart C4680

  Hello-

  Is there an OCR software included with the Photosmart C4680?  I did a full install, but I can't scan to create editable text.  The aid function advises me to select a pdf in text can be added to the output, but this option is not given in the drop-down list.  The data sheet

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  -Steve

  It works!

  And you were right, I had to uninstall and reinstall the PhotoSmart software before you install the OCR software.  I had updated to version 13 of PhotoSmart 12 version that was on the CD supplied with the printer.  I got the message "OCR application is not required" when I tried to install on version 13.   Uninstall and revert to the version 12 allowed me to then install the OCR.  I'll go with version 12, it has everything I need.

  I think it is strange that HP it so hard.  After successful installation, I changed from a customer who felt he was ripped off (after being sold nonexistent OCR) to a satisfied customer!  HP should at least have a link of his C4680 software page to the OCR software and indicates the software OCR is working on the C4600 series.

  Anyway, thanks a lot rhanman for your help and for the time and effort in replying to my query.  I greatly appreciate it.

• Photosmart C4680: Photosmart C4680 on homegroup printer-considered, but not scanner

  My home network includes a Dell XPS-18 running Windows 8.1 Pro and a Toshiba Satellite running Windows 7 Home.  Our Photosmart C4680 is connected to the Toshiba by USB.  It is shared and is available on the network.  It is used by the XPS for printing and never a problem as long as the Toshiba's online.

  However, I can't find a scanner.  I used it for printing without having to install any software.  When I couldn't find as a scanner, I have installed on the XPS, the HP software suite which is available for download from the HP site, in the hope, there was a special driver for scanning, which would be added.  But that does not change.

  The Toshiba can scan from the C4680.  And I can connect to the XPS via USB and also find a scanner by, for example, opening Paint.net and go to "file |" Acquire | From a scanner or camera.  But when the printer is shared via network it is not considered a scanner on the XPS, although I can print to it.

  How can I use it as a scanner on the network?

  Hello

  MS Windows alow God a printer or files and folders, there are not any sharing scanner capabilities.

  Scanning can only be done from the PC that have plugged USB cable, to scan multiple computers, you will need a network connected device, it can be done with a USB device.

• Touch Screen chooses options on own HP Photosmart C4680

  Hello

  My HP Photosmart C4680 has a touch screen, which will choose its own options when I turn on the printer.  It 'push buttons' to the different menus, but bottom line, it's gets stuck on a map memory, copy, or scan and then I can connect to my laptop to print because she's busy doing his own selection.  If I try to cancel or to sail with the touch screen it doesn't let me.  I unplugged from the wall and let rest overnight and this still happened. Sometime during the attempts to restart I did the same power kept flashing on and outside.

  Thank you

  TEMPORARY SOLUTION: delete touch screen at a screen, print from the computer. You will need to block the door sensor on the back of the touch screen, plug it back (2 wire ribbons) and delete again each time the printer is turned off or is spent in sleep mode. Better to have all the print jobs in queue upward, and pause, resume when ready. This works for the print mode, but does not allow for analysis.

  STEP 2: Order the capacitor referenced in previous reviews.

• Photosmart C4680 blurry printing PDF files and web pages

  My Photosmart C4680 has only recently begun to blur PDF print and web pages, which are not blurred due to problems of ink, but look as if they were printed during a mild earthquake.   Printing of documents Word and Text Edit

  Since my computer is fine.  I've done the troubleshooting and re-scanned the page alignment - no change.

  I have a Mac running OS X 10.6.8.

  Hi Colin,

  Thanks for the information.

  It seems that this problem is hardware related. Misaligned cartridges can do that.

  Please refer to the procedure described in the following link to resolve this problem.

• HP Photosmart C4680 printer help - makes noise when turned on?

  Hello

  I searched all day for a solution on my NEW out of the box (HP Photosmart C4680) printer.  I decided to use the scan option, so I opened the box and everything out of the box, remove all packing materials and tape, paper, etc.  Now, I plug the power supply cable (not USB), the printer does beep and a beep will sound and the screen comes on and power off.  It's just a blue screen that displays the logo of hp--(tours noir/arrêt et en arrière, encore et encore).  When I hold down the POWER button for 10 seconds, it turns off the printer (and the beep).  Turn it back on it does again ringing for about a half hour.  Then he turns to the language screen if he wants to, but the touchscreen works even not at all to select or scroll through the list.  And then if I open the door of the cartridge, the cradle only slips when he wants to and not all the time (certainly not when it beeps at startup pointing upwards).

  I tried to install the software in the hope that it might help.  But after hanging the printer usb cable once all the software has been installed, it is said that it recognizes not the printer or it is not be able to communicate with him.

  It is out of warranty.  Any help/advice is greatly appreciated!

  --------------------

  UPDATE: I got the shop, and it is considered to be a printer of lemon.  The end.

  Yes. I remove all packing materials, including any Blue Ribbon, that there is none.

  UPDATE: I took the printer in the shop, and it is considered to be a printer of lemon.  Please read and try to help!
