need shortcut to scan to desktop

I have two Win7 machines and just had to re - install Windows on one of them.  My Officejet Pro 8500 has working on the remade machine but cannot find a way to get directly to the scan dialog box.  There is an icon of the printer to my desktop and when I click it, it brings up several options, including the disalog scan.  However, on the other machine there is something called HP Scan that goes directly to the scan dialog box but it is not on the remade machine.   The shortcut icon printer seems to have a start parameter that shows the whole dialog box so I think that there is a parameter that would go directly to scan dialog box.  The target reads as follows: "C:\Program HP HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910\Bin\HP Officejet Pro 8500 A910.exe' - UDCDevicePage to start

Note: I don't know if I have an A909 or A910 - is no indication on the machine just figures that do not seem to be recognized by what anyone online.  There are a number of product CQ722A.    The program of automatic detection fails to identify my machine.  I expect it to be an A909 since I got it for probably more than 3 years.  I'm in wireless mode.

Thanks in advance for any you can shed light

Hello

Please try:

Click Start > all programs > HP

Right click HP Scan and "send to desktop".

If you do not see HP Scan, which means that you have not fully installed software & driver for your printer.

Kind regards.

  • shortcut icons on the desktop

    OK, it is not important, but the names of my shortcut icons on the desktop, suddenly changed - now I have white writing on a gray background.  How to change?

    You can use system restore to roll back the machine back to a point just before that the problem started.

    (Thanks to Alan Edwards for what follows, a search for "icons transparent alan edwards" will always find quickly and easily the solution).

    Four things are needed for the transparent icon backgrounds:

    1. Control Panel-System-Advanced-Performance settings.
    Check "Shadows fall to use the desktop icon labels" on the display
    Effects tab.

    2 - Click on Desktop - "arrange icons by" and ensure the lock Web
    items is disabled.

    3. transparency will not work if you have the web content on your desktop.
    Control panel - display properties Desktop tab - customize the Office-
    Web tab, clear all the check boxes.

    4. ensure that the wallpaper is an image file no HTML.

  • How to remove arrow shortcut icon on the desktop

    Although it is possible to remove the arrow, my recommendation is that
    you are not doing this. The arrows are an important
    function - provide quick visual identification of a shortcut. If you
    remove the arrows, you run the risk of substantial that sooner or later
    you delete something you want to keep, thinking that you were
    just remove a shortcut. I let the arrows that they are.

    Ken Blake (MS-MVP)

    According to me, there are situations that are valid for this.  I would like to remove the arrow from shortcuts on the desktop that I keep to certain folders.  I have file extensions on and do not keep the installers on the desktop, so I don't see the harm to remove the arrow of my shortcut 'Documents '.  I never think of Documents is actually stored on the desktop.  And if something, it only would make me more hesitant to delete a shortcut, no more likely to remove a real folder.  I plead to remove the arrow system, but it would be useful for specific desktop icons.  It's obviously the case, because Microsoft has decided to remove the arrow for "user files" folder is added through the control panel "Desktop Icon Settings".

  • HP PhotoSmart 3210 all-in-one: I NEED the icon on my desktop that allows me to do the scanning, cropping, the economy for this printer

    My computer crashed

    I got it running again (after taking it to the repair shop), but it must now install this icon that allows me to use all the features of the scanner.

    I have no idea where the disk is - I've looked everywhere, so I must assume he threw by accident (we had this printer for many years). It means that I try to find a way to do this without using the disk.

    I downloaded something on the HP site which allows me to use the scanner, but only allows me to reframe what I scan. This feature is extremely important for me because I use it for business and need to crop the photos all the time. For example, I tested it with a single photo 4 x 6 and it scanned all white spaces as well... which is usually not serious, but there is no feature of allowing me to reframe what part of the analysis, I wanted to save it.

    Please... oh please, please, please... let some knowledable, do-gooder see this post and help me with this...

    No, it wasn't she...  .. .but thank you very much for offering to help me

    BUT... After several attempts to search, we found what worked (oh, thank God!)

    Hello, it is likely that there is an invalid extension installed on Firefox. Can you please try to start Firefox in Mode safe and then see if you experience the problem

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    You already have a soft copy why do you need to start a new search? I can't work on the rationale. If you want to test your printer, you need to print and scan then because to be able to scan, you need something on the glass.

  • HP Office Jet 6500 has more scan to desktop

    I have a HP Office Jet 6500 has more with a Scanner. The printer works ok and I can run it from an icon on the desktop.  However I can understand how to get a workable icon to the scanner link.  I have recently installed Windows 8.1

    Yes, I can reach him through 8.1, but it has a different, less flexible interface.  I also get assistance from HP print and Scan doctor.   But it's a lot of time. Help please.

    Hello Krajewskit,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.

    It seems you are trying to find an easier way to access the scanner for your printer software after upgrade the computer to Windows 8.1. I will try to help you with this.

    Condition that after update the software of the printer is still installed and working properly, there should be some options to make it easier to use the HP scanning application.

    You can if you want to uninstall and reinstall, here is the link of the software: HP Officejet full feature software and driver.

    Provide the software is installed correctly, you should see an icon on the desktop that resembles your printer. If you click on this (called the HP printer Assistant), it will open a window where you can access the scanning application from. If it is not on the desktop, you can check you printers folder for the same icon. The software is not installed correctly, if it does not work.

    You can also add the HP Scan application directly on the desktop.
    to do this go to the screen type start 'this PC' or 'Computer' you should see an icon developed for either clicking on it. From there, go towards the local disk (c :)), now in the program files (x 86), find the HP folder. Once here, there should be a folder for your printer, open that folder. There should be a 'bin' folder that opens. Here, you should see an icon for HP Scan. Right click on that, and you should have the ability to send and then create desktop shortcut. This will give you what you are looking for.

    Hope that helps you out, please post on the Forums of HP.
