• HP Officejet Pro 8600 more print but not scan

  I have an Officejet Pro 8600 and I use Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) and it print and copy but will not scan. I had a hell of a time trying to get this thing to scan - I even spent an hour and a half with HP technical support and they could not fix it and finally gave up and call me Micro$ oft said that it must be a windows problem (Windows is up to date, incidentally).

  I tried to open the scanner software and nothing happens when I click the icon - the loading icon flashes for a second, then only the mouse pointer. Nothing happens if I try to boot from all programs. Nothing happens if I try to scan to the computer of the other printer told me the failure of sweeping and that there could be reasons of severalpossible (unrelated, software used, etc.).

  I have installed and uninstalled. A couple of times he was having trouble with the installation, but finally got it connected. Once it would not uninstall in Control Panel until I did it directly from the HP folder. I connected it by USB and wireless. I installed the version of bloatware. I cleaned that out and I tried the only version of drivers. The HP support person had me go and removed a bunch of stuff in the registry. I tried to run as an administrator. Nothing works. I even tried to scan using Windows Fax and scan. I disabled Kaspersky and made sure that my firewall is turned off.

  I am at my wits end with this and certainly regret my purchase at the moment. Help!

  Hello, it happens to the analysis of Windows (WIA) and generates an error:

  "The Windows Imaging service does not work... If the problem persists, you will not be able to scan using the applications that use this service, such as Microsoft Paint. Scanning software HP could still work. »

  It asked me to restart, and then re-run the diagnostic tests, but I got the same result.

  Then, I jumped to HP Scanner Twain and got another error:

  "The Twain component is not working properly because the product is used by another process. Save your work and close all applications. Turn the product off, turn it on again, and then click on restart and repeat the test. »

  He told me then the problem persists to uninstall the software, then reinstall the Full Feature software (I did, but available).

  * EDIT

  Problem solved!  After you had me run the diagnostic tool I googled the WIA problem and found that many other people had the same problem. A person has a response from Micro$ oft saying that it was a Windows 7 issue and how to fix it - this is the text I found:

  To start the WIA service, you need start all services of dependence. To start the dependency services, please follow the steps mentioned below:

  -> > click on start-> type "services.msc" and press ENTER, once you get up the services window, please do the rest steps.

  -> > first check and write down all the dependency services: -

  -> > right WIA-> properties-> tab dependence, check the services of name listed there.

  It must contain the following services:

  * RPC remote Procedure Call

  -> > DCOM Server process Launcher

  -> > RPC end point mapper

  * Detection material core

  Make sure that all of the above services are started in the services list.

  Last time, we started the Detection hardware Kernel, which solves our problem.

  (Andy, it's important.  Choose "Detection hardware Kernel ' and start this service which should start your 'Windows Imaging Acquisition '.  If it does not then select WIA and change the departure to "automatic".  This fixed my problems) after all dependency services start, please try to start, WIA service to solve the problem of .                                                                                                                                                                                       

  (For those who are doubtful with computers, like me, when you click on the start icon, you can type services.msc in the box of research programs or click on run and type it in there). Once inside the list of services, you can look at the dependencies by right-clicking on the Windows Image acquisition service and selecting Properties. Take note of these dependencies. Then back to the main list and watch to see if these dependencies are started. My Shell Hardware Detection says disabled, so I right click on it; However, starting selection is grayed out and I couldn't select it from the drop-down list box, so Startup type I selected Automatic, apply, close the Services window and then started my Scan software and presto, it worked.

  Thanks for setting me on the right track!

  
  

• OfficeJet Pro L7590 can print but not scan

  My printer (Officejet Pro L7590) can print and copy correctly, but the scan function - that has worked well at the same time - has just up and stop working, and my attempts to solve the problem simply go round.

  • When I try to scan using the button start scan on the printer, I get an error message saying 'no scan options '.
  • When I try to open the solution Center, it is said that he cannot run because the installation is not complete.
  • Uninstalling and reinstalling the software (latest version, which is three years, downloaded from the HP website) do not work. The software seems to go through the process of installation very well, but crashes on the stage finish ("product configuration"). Eventually it times out.
  • Once in this case, the installer downloads a supposed solution of the HP Web site. He told me that it is fixing the problem and asks me to restart the computer, saying it will continue after the restart. After I restart, the procedure does not continue, and the problem is not fixed - all the behaviors I describe above are still occurring.
  • Also downloaded one file with other solutions supposed to this question. They do not work. For the most part, they are variations on "run the setup software again", preceded by various other measures. However, when I do this, it re-not installing - it is a completely different window, and if I try to go back to the installation procedure, he refuses, telling me the software is already installed. (And yet when I try to open the solution Center, he always tells me it is not installed.)
  • Tonight is the third time I tried to troubleshoot it. On three occasions, I just gave up in frustration after a few variations of the cover above.
  • I'm this end =><= to="" going="" all="" office="" space="" on="" this="" printer="" and="" getting="" a="" new="" one="" based="" on="" the="" abhp="" principle="" -="">Anything But HP.

  I can't emphasize enough that it worked in the past and this basis still printing very well (with the exception of some strange problems with certain PDF files), but scanning has broken since my last round of hardware upgrades and refuses to be fixed.

  It's incredibly frustrating. Someone just make it work with minimal BS, as he has done before.

  I realize, this is a follow up very, very late, but apparently the problem has something to do with the 32-bit version of Windows 7 running. I recently installed the 64 bit version and now have no problem with any HP software.

  Well, except that sometimes he asked my permission to do an update then fails to actually download the update (I get the same "could not connect to content url" error message that many others reported here).

  Other than that, which is slightly annoying, but doesn't really affect what anyone, everything works fine now.

• My HP Photosmart C4280 All in one printer does not print

  I troubleshoot the printer and it says that there is no problem.

  Tried to check ink, does not. Checked with MATS and there is no problem.

  is there a problem with these printers?

  Here are three books for this specific printer including how istalll it.  I suggest to download and review them to see if you properly follow the process:http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/manualCategory?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&softwareitem=mp-52220-1&os=219&product=3192753&.  If you have any questions as you go along.  There is a lot of reading, but there's everything you need to know to do it right - it's not just a matter of steps, but also to do them in the right order (and there may be steps that you did not because they were not explained properly).  Make sure you have all the software, drivers and firmware necessary and compatible with both your printer AND your version of Vista.  Download and re - install them again just to be sure, didn't you build a time corrupted version first.

  If those who do not help, contact HP Technical Support at the: http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support_task.html and request their help in istalling the printer and do print and work in all its forms, it should.  They know more about their products that we do.  I'm sure they will be willing and able to help you.

  I hope this helps.

• Manual duplex, duplex printing does not work on my HP Officejet g85 all-in - One Printer running Windows 7

  I have a new 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium PC which I plugged my HP Officejet G85 printer via a USB cable.

  Tell the truth, the 'instructions' click on the 'FEATURES' tab on the active manual duplex duplexing aka.  My driver does not work

  have a "FEATURES" tab - so I can't print double-sided.  CAN YOU HELP ME?  It is not for lack of printing, since everything still works perfectly on my old XP computer.

  THE COMMANDS THAT I USE ARE:
  "FILE, PRINT, HP G85, preferences and get 'LAYOUT' & PAPER/QUALITY" tabs (but not "FEATURES" tab).

  Tab AVAILABLE the has a "print on both sides:" box of choice: a) return on long edges or Rtrn b)

  BUT EITHER IT HAPPENS ELSEWHERE NOTHING EXCEPT THE OUTPUT PRINTER ON ONE SIDE!  Help!

  XP drivers will not install in Windows 7 and XP mode, to higher than the Premium family edition.

  As far as I KNOW, even if you install the printer in XP mode, I don't think you can access the printer from Windows 7.

  The solutions are to use free Office or Open Office in XP mode, collect the files to print and then print out them which can result in the document formatting issues.

  HP is trying to tell you that you need to buy something for their current range.

  Printer still print, but looks like it's dying each time. Should I worry

  Yes, you should worry.  Looks like the belt is slipping.  It will fail eventually.  Try to fix it yourself by finding what is stuck, or get a new printer.  Look in the upper front part of the printer with a flashlight.

• Photosmart c4280 all-in-one and Maverics no color printing

  My photosmart c4280 worked for me like a champ for years, that is until what I plugged my new macbook pro with OS 10.9.3 Mavericks. Now the printer will not print in color. I know that he peut still print in color because I copy/print a document in color that I had and it worked fine.  I have ASUs available and, as far as I know, have downloaded the correct driver.

  Any help out there?

  Thank you

  Hi 6pick! Welcome to the forums

  I noticed your post on your Photosmart C4280 is no longer printing in color and would like to make a suggestion to you that might help!

• HP Photosmart C4280 all-in-One: HP Photosmart C4280 all-in-One printer

  I just hung this printer that was given to me (but without the installation disk or manual).  Scanning and direct printing on the printer do not seem to be a problem, but I can not "copy" on the printer.  The copy comes out just of Virgin.

  Welcome to the HP community @lorideeb,

  I saw your post on the blank copies of your Photosmart C4280 and wanted to tender hand to help you with my own suggestions. Personally, I think it might be a problem with ink cartridge, so you would recommend that you try the steps from the link I posted for you below. Also make sure that the printer is plugged directly into a wall outlet, avoiding bars power and surge protectors.

  An "Incompatible cartridge" or 'print cartridge is missing, improperly installed, or not intended for your device' Message appears on the computer "

  If you have trouble, let me know and I'll do my best to help.
