My HP photosmart 6510e all-in-one scan only black and white.

How do I change this color scans?

Just bought. And I can't scan document in color. Only when I use the scan for the photo. But then the scan is very low.

When you have the answer thank you in advance.

Kind regards

Hello Jeroen.

I assume you are using the printer on a Macintosh, envoirnment? Please correct me otherwise.

The workflow default scanning set up to scan documents in black and white. Be sure to change the settings for scanning to scan color documents:

If your version of OS X 10.7, be sure to install the critical update below. Skip this step for any other version of OS X.
http://FTP.HP.com/pub/softlib/software12/COL41827/MP-101648-1/HP_Scan_for_Mac_OS_X_10.7_Update.dmg

Now change the settings of the device as follows:
1 open the HP utility and select your device.
2. based on Scan Settings open the "Scan to Computer".
3. click on the tab scan tasks.
4. Select the affected shortcut and click on change... (or double-click on the shortcut).
5. in the section of scanning from an HP device, click the blue triangle to expand the menu.
6. in the expanded menu now, open the drop-down next to the Mode
7. now select the color option, and then click OK to save the changes. The next scanned using this workflow is displayed in color.

Kind regards

    Scan pictures into my a6683w HP Vista in black and white, but the documents still scan in color.

    Hello there ingridt, welcome to the Forums!

    I noticed your post on the scans of your Photosmart 6510, scan to your system from Vista in black and white. I want to offer my suggestions to you to see if they can help you with this.

    First of all, try to launch the HP print and Scan Doctor who is used to fix the printing and scanning problems. You choose the option "Scanning" when the tool is run. It will inform you if the software is completely installed, or if there is a problem, it can not correct. If it detects an error and shows you a red 'X', I suggest then uninstall and reinstall.

    Here are some links to help with uninstalling and reinstalling if you happen to do these steps.

    1. uninstalling the printer software

    2. restart your PC

    3 reinstall: Photosmart HP 6510 e-All-in-One Printer - B211a

    Try a scan now and let me know how make you out!

    Good luck!

  • Photosmart HP 6520: HP 6520 scanning in black and white

    Hello

    My HP 6520 scans in color black and white docs.  I read the various messages from others who have similar problems and have downloaded the latest drivers on the Apple site.   When I open the HP utility and navigate to "Scan to computer" and 'Modify tasks analysis' I find the menu only 2 items I can interact with are "Document (PDF)" and "Photo (JPEG).

    When I press the button Edit, I get a submenu that I can develop to show the type of device, the presets and exit.  When I select the "show details" button, I get only one bar for me to choose the quality in which items can be scanned.  I don't see the Mode option that should allow me to select Save in both black and white.

    Please can you help me with a few tracks here - thanks in advance.

    Hi Waterboy71

    I carried out the tasks that you recommended and there is a degree of progress, while getting only not in a fully satisfactory place.

    Certainly the HPScan shortcut on the desktop icon will allow the scans for color photos but the documents in PDF format are in black and white.

    However, if I take the longest walk around the system, select the printer in the printer options and select scanner in that, a submenu opens and I can propose to scan in color, if its for documents or pictures.

    Is not as simple as it used to be, as I didn't have to do that before - maybe it's a result of a system of 'upgrade' somewhere along the way.

    Thank you

    Hi @Rossinni

    Open your Applications folder, then on the Hewlett-Packard folder.

    Locate the HP Scan icon and move it to the trash.

    Then install the HP Easy Scan application instead, it's the latest version of HP Scan:

    https://iTunes.Apple.com/us/app/HP-easy-scan/id967004861?MT=12

    Now, try to scan from the printer once more, in the future any document should appear as color and picture as a full page with no cropping.

  • 5514 photosmart e-all-in-one: scan multiple pages into a single PDF document?

    How can I scan multiple pages into a single multi-page PDF file?
    I saw posted similar questions, but I have not found all the right answers. The Council alone that I saw was to scan each page in a separate PDF document, then merge them into a single PDF using third party software.
    Of course, I don't want to do.
    I can't believe that there's really no way to do it using the existing HP printing/scanning utilities provided with the hardware.
    My printer/scanner is the "HP Photosmart 5514 e-All-in-One Printer - B111h", and I am running Vista (64 bit) on a HP Pavilion laptop.

    Hello

    The HP scanning software (start > programs > HP > Photosmart HP 5510 series > HP Scan) select PDF and make sure that the resolution is 300 dpi or less.

    Make sure the option Show Scan preview is checked, and click Scan.

    Once the first page of scanning is finished, place the next page on the window and click on the button "+" under the scan preview...

    Once you are done click Save.

    I have a HP Photosmart 2713 all-in-one and installed OSX Mavericks. My print function works fine through "Printers & Scanners" in system preferences, however, I can't scan from this application.

    I tried to find software to download HP Scan that I didn't do it, but can't find the software for my printer/scanner.

  • My HP Photosmart C8180 All-in-One Printer does not scan the black and white film strips or slides.

    This problem occurred recently. Previously, the scanner accepted slides and strips of black and white film and scanned them without any problem. Since I've updated the OS on my iMac (I am currently using OS X 10.6.8), I contacted Applecare because I thought that it was possible that my current operating system might have some incompatibilities with the C8180. 'Expert' AppleCare then accompanied me by a uninstall/reinstall, but it has not solved the problem. AppleCare said then that the problem is no doubt HP hardware failure. I find it quite peculiar since the scanner otherwise Applecare analysis works and there is no problem with respect it print or copy.

    Hi, JAOC,.

    Your C8180 can scan slides or films fixed on the memory card.  This will allow you to test the scanning equipment.

    I just bought a new Mac with OS 10.6.  (former was OS 10.5)  Now my Photosmart 8450 will print only in black and white.  I installed the single upgrade on the site of HP, no change.

    Is there an other update I need?

    You want to disable automatic session opening, which may be why it behaves in this way.

    Go to System Preferences

    Go to security

    Under "for all accounts on this computer", place a check mark next to 'turn off automatic connection.

    In addition, I do not know if you set a password for the test account, but put something simple as 123 - just something / anything.

    Once that is done, choose log in the Apple menu, or reboot. This should bring you to the login screen where you can specify the account to enter.

  • Photosmart HP 6520 - print in color, not black and white

    I have had this printer for some time and configure options so that it used only the black cartridge unless I put it specifically to do otherwise when I wanted to color.  It worked well and I could switch between black and white and color very easily.  A few weeks ago, the printer started to ignore the options I would set and printed in color.  I double checked the parameters, and the printer is always set up for black and white, but now it completely ignores and still print in color.

    I tried the settings at the time of printing, and that indicates that the image in black and white, it still prints in color.

    I haven't added any software or made any changes to my pc.

    Can someone help me with this, please?

    Hi Lulu and thank you for the reply!

    I suggest to download and run the HP print and Scan doctor.  Once you have run the tool successfully, try again the configuration in black and white.

    Please let me know the results.
