HP6500a: Cannot fix function 'Enable Scan to Computer' hp6500a

I tried a multitude of corrections suggested without any positive result. It has been connected wireless. The hp6500a will recognize my HP laptop and prints but will not scan. It worked well for over 2 years, but all of a sudden doesn't connect / scan.

I have uninstalled several times and even connected via ethernet when setting nothing helped.

Frustrated beyond belief, but before I burn both scanner and portable thought that someone of you I would ask experts! Thank you.

Hello again Autofire,

Another document that we can try treats a 'computer no. has detected"or a Message appears"connection error"during the scanning for printer e-all-in-one HP Officejet 6500 has Printer Series (E710).

  • HP Color LaserJet M477fnw MFP: Scan to computer button disappeared

    Hello, I saw similar comments of the same issue, but none with a solution.  The closest is this: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/LaserJet-Printing/How-to-fix-missing-quot-scan-to-computer-quot-touchsc...

    Problem: We have a new printer that we have Setup.  During the installation process, on the touch screen, provided the message to "Scan to Computer".  We used the option to make sure it worked and took part in the computer we wanted.  We restarted the printer, and the option is now missing!  The option "Scan to Computer" has completely disappeared.  Where it was once a touchscreen button / option, no longer exists.

    Printer: HP Color LaserJet M477fnw MFP

    OS: Mac OS X 10.8.xx

    I downloaded the firmware update, but that doesn't work either.  I tried using the verification of updates of the touch screen of the printer, it can never connect.  I connected to the internet, I connected directly on a hard line, still no connection.  I literally just bought this printer yesterday, with a 2-year service plan, drove an hour to the next closest store that had it in stock and it gives me nothing else problems.

    I have unplugged and waited a minute.

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled the printer and the software from my computer.

    I'm out of ideas.

    Hello @gfrd3489

    If you talked about scanning to the icon post from work or option after pressing the icon of the scan on the printer itself that one has been dropped by HP since she had so many questions with that like on some devices will only scan flat and not of ADF.

    If you notice you still have other options such as scanning to USB key, scan to e-mail or scan in network on the printer folder of are next to the HP scanning app on the PC for windows and mac

    Devices most recent are not supposed to have this option on the first place and the firmware and normal updates which will remove devices more alumni who have it

    There were a few M477 which were sold to vendors when it first came out which was which, but as soon as he gets the first update will be deleted

    hope that clarifies the question

  • "Scan to computer is enabled no longer."

    After the upgrade to Windows 10 I continually get this message, "Scan to computer is no longer enabled.  I disabled "Scan to Computer" network printer and ran print and scan doctor and you have restarted the computer and the printer. I always get the sporadic message. It is very annoying.

    Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

    I should be able to provide suggestions!  Looks like that a little a problem with the software and scanning to the message from the computer.  When you disable the scan of the computer should be a checkbox bellow the button.  The box should say something like "Automatically start scan of the computer" when I log on Windows Make sure that this box is NOT checked.

    If the above suggestion already exists and you are still having the problem then I suggest that you uninstall the HP software. Once the uninstall is complete, it would be wise to perform a cleanup of the computer disk. A disk cleanup will improve the performance of the computer and remove the temporary files that may cause problems during the installation of the software. Once disk cleanup you must restart the computer and reinstall the HP software.

  • Cannot download scan of computer Applications

    I've used the scanner on my V715w repeatedly, but today I can't. When I choose my computer Inspiron 620 Win 7 to send the scan, it is back with the message that it cannot retrieve the list of scanning of the computer applications.

    I unplugged the printer, waited, plugged it again. Does not solve it. I tried printing from the computer, printed fine. What can I do so that he can read the applications of scanning the computer?

    Edit: since I posted, I went to the host app and scanning Dell printer selected in PDF format, and it is scanned. So everything seems to work OK, except the printer cannot find the scan applications list. The House of Dell printer presents 3 scan applications, paint, PowerPoint and Adobe Reader. Question remains: what can I do so that he can read the applications of scanning the computer?

    shelquis,

    If you use a wireless printer, if you know the ip address of the printer, put this in the address bar and press ENTER.

    Click Configurations

    Scan to network host management

    You can click on each of them or delete them all. The printer you will find the next time that you open a session.

  • I get a "cannot install printer because a policy has been enabled on your computer that blocks NT 4.0 driver ' how can I install my printer?

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6500 running Vista 32 bit. I just bought a new printer, a HP Photosmart C4640, when I tried to install and connect I get a message indicating that it cannot install printer as a policy has been activated this block driver NT 4.0. I have run all updates of software and drivers, but still get this message. I've been at this for almost a week now. I've been doing the HP race with regard to aid. I am VERY fusturated at this point and desperately need help. What should I do to make this work?

    Hi jessheffernan2003,

    This problem occurs because Windows Vista does not support the installation of kernel-mode printer drivers. Windows Vista only supports installing user mode printer drivers.

    To work around this problem, try to get and install a printer driver as a user on the Windows NT 4.0 computer. If you can not get the particular user mode printer driver, try to get a driver printer in user mode compatible with the kernel mode printer driver which is hosted on the Windows NT 4.0 computer. To get a printer driver updated for the print device, contact the manufacturer of the printer.

    For more information about your hardware manufacturer, visit the following Web site:

  • Windows cannot be installed on this physical drive of this computer may not support the start-up this drive make sure that the drive controller is enabled in the computer's bios menu

    Hello world

    I know, there are several other threads on this topic, but I couldn't find a working solution. I currently have no OS on my DELL XPS 17 L702X. When I try to install from a USB stick bootable Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 I get this error message: windows cannot be installed on this physical drive of this computer may not support the start-up this drive make sure that the drive controller is enabled in the computer's bios menu.

    I would be very grateful if you could help me

    Hello

    I suggest that you contact the manufacturer of the computer to change the BIOS settings and check if it is has updated the BIOS.

    Important: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  • Pavilion dv6700: Pavilion laptop computer under Vista: Windows does not start, the Startup Repair cannot fix it. What to do next?

    Hello
    My laptop seven year old made me proud til yesterday, but now it does not fire upwards. Instead, it hangs for a minute or two (black screen, no HARD drive light blinks, nothing), while it charges to a screen with two options - either start the system restart or start Windows normally. The second option takes me around the loop again. The first option tells me that it cannot fix the problem automatically. When I display the error details, it lists all of the tests, as adopted successfully, but ends with the words: "Root cause found: failure so that the Setup program is underway.

    I'm sure I know why she fell: two days ago, I left all my files on a portable player and defragmented the disk. The idea was to speed up the machine and get it running like new. He immediately started to hang when connecting, so I thought, well I'll go for a complete restoration of the system. I followed the procedure using the disks provided with the machine, and that's when it stopped working completely. I felt that this was more than the aging than HARD drive could take.

    My attempts at rejuvenation have actually caused his untimely death? Or is there a difficulty - something I could undertake?

    Or should I just bite the bullet and go and buy a new machine? When everything (screen, keyboard and trackpad) worked so well, it seems a shame...

    Any help or thoughts welcome. Thank you

    If you really want to resurrect, you could certainly purchase a new hard drive and try to restore the system of work using the recovery media - but then, even if it did work, you would have still lost all your data, settings, and applications in the process - and having to reinstall all your applications everywhere again.

    Hey, don't feel bad, I'm guilty of this too - has recently attempted to resurrect an era Tablet XP PC so that it can run Win10!  He went from XP to Vista, Win7, for Win8 - and along the way, gains of new memory and drives hard - but the Win10 bet was too.  So, I got to a "give up to use it.

    However, I also kept a cell phone 5 year alive by replacing the HDD with a SSD and adding more memory.  So now it is faster than ever, it has been and works like new.

    But... He has NO touchscreen, there no USB3 ports, it doesn't have 1 GB ethernet - and the list goes.

    Thus, it works very well for what we use it for - but it can't really be upgraded, so sooner or later, we will have to replace it.

    Everything depends on how much you need 'new' - touch screen, stylus, handwriting, camera, 3 USB ports, display port jack, HDMI ports... etc.

  • Cannot retrieve the list of scanning of computer Applications

    I can't get my Dell V715w printer to download the list of scanning my computer Windows 7 applications.

    I reinstalled the printer drivers and software of Dell V715w Wireless all-in-One Printer owners thread (W7).

    I use IE11. I disabled ToolTips and have checked the «never show...» "in printing preferences.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled ABBYY OCR.

    I deleted the host scan from print settings Server Configuration page.

    I have generated new Applications of scanning Dell printer lists.

    I followed the above procedures... "doing things in the right order. Wake up the printer. Restart the computer and the connection.  Once the computer connected, wait 2 minutes.  In the meantime, on the printer, press the scan button. After 2 minutes, on the printer, select the computer you want to scan. Then it must generate applications that you added from the updated list of applications to send scans to.

    None of these things do not work. Do you have any suggestions for me to get the printer to download the Scan Applications list?

    Moreover, the printer works fine in all other respects. It's a printer shared in a Win 7 / Win 8.1 Homegroup. There is no wireless, sharing, or from permissions at all. Just unable to download scan applications list.

  • OfficePro 8600 all-in-one - function "Scan to Computer", alias software update do not update

    Hello

    On my iMac, after update to the Mavericks, the "Software Update" feature Apple told me that there was an update from HP for my printer. After the update, I got a new feature and a updated printer utility (or the scan utility? I type of memory on a PC at work away from my Mac, so bear with me please). The novelty is "scan to computer" or maybe "scan to folder" - it allows me to scan directly onto my iMac from the printer. I also have a MacBook pro that I have updated to the Mavericks. For the life of me I can't update software to 'find' this HP softawre update. I tried all technical and simple thing I can think (redownloading and install the driver of HP on HP site, deleting driver, uninstall, repair permissions, tranfering manually all the iMac to MacBook HP software, restart the printer, etc. etc. etc.). No luck. I can't get the software update HP on the PowerBook - and the software manually transferred from the iMac comes with an error - so I deleted and am now using the latest driver web page from HP which works fine - with the exception of any scan of the computer have... I'd like to since my PowerBook usually stays on my desk to the floor away from the printer down... by the way, I LOVE THIS HP 8600 printer. All brands of printer, I used it over the years, AND this ONE IS BY FAR MY FAVORITE IN EVERY WAY. Bravo HP!

    Hello

    I had on both Mountain Lion. And yes I got the HP software on the two before moving on to Mavereicks. I'm not sure 100 percent when the HP update came through on the iMac if - it may have been before I upgraded to the Mavericks. But I'm pretty sure that it was after the Mavericks.

  • Scan to computer & other features missing after "upgrade".

    I went to my HP6500 E710n-z software as I do always find in the tab devices and printers. It opened very well and had all my usual options.  I wanted to enable it function analysis.  I saw the top of the window there is a software update available, so I chose it.  Now after you run that assumed software "update" I lost a lot of the icons and functions that were present right before the upgrade. Before the upgrade, it was a nice black background and had probably about 6 icons relating to the functions of scanning and others.  Now he has a gray background and only 3 icons.  And for me, most importantly, the SCAN OF the COMPUTER button and the options are not available.

    I am running Win 7 x 64 version.  I tried to uninstall the software, put it back and even make a windows system restore to a point before the change, but no matter what I tried, whenever I come back in printer from the control panel and open the HP6500 E710n-z I always get the very degraded and significantly less functional possibilities now.

    It is extremely frustrating, as everyhing was fine until I 'upgraded' supposed to be previously adequate software, which has removed one of the key of my all-in-one, functions that is directly scan to the computer! I can always scan using the HPScan software, but cannot do it more directly from the unit of the IOA

    Someone at - it a similar experience?

    Download a new set of drivers. This should solve the problem. Make sure you use full feature software and driver. Let me know what happens.
