OfficeJet 6600 does not recognize my new HP Pavilion windows 8.1 for scanning

I have a HP Officejet 6600 networking with my new HP Pavilion windows 8.1 it prints fine but does not recognize my computer when I want to scan. Whenever I want to scan a document to my computer I have to run Scan doctor. I called tech support and they can't help me because my printer is no longer under warranty as I bought it December 2012. but my office was purchased November 2013. They said that it is clearly a problem with the printer and not on the computer. They won't even talk to me or answer my questions without fees being paid first.  The scanner recognizes my laptop and desktop to the husband who have vista and 7, respectively. But I don't understand why it will print without difficulty and habit of scanning.

Hi leila1964,

Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support.

I want to offer a helping hand with the 8.1 of Windows not scanning with your HP Officejet 6600. When you run the HP print and Dr. Scan on the computer it says it fixes some thing or that it cannot fix what whether?

Given that the printer works on the other two computers (Vista and 7), the problem is with the WIndows 8.1. I want to uninstall the printer software and the HP printer install wizard makes sure that we get the newest software possible.

Let me know how it works.

Thank you

  • Why my data Ext Hard Drive WORD & EXCEL from my old computer does not recognize my new computer with Windows 7.

    Recently, I replaced an old computer running Windows XP with a newer computer of Windows7.

    I have TWO Toshiba external hard drives 2... one of them (Mdl HDDR250E03X) is used for external backup of data on my computer.  I started using it for my old computer that was running on Windows XP.  Due to a Trojan infection, I had to buy a new computer running Windows 7.  I thought that the hard drive is simply a plug-and-play device, BUT my new computer has not recognized that there is a device plugged until someone suggested that I make a change in the Device Management section (which only works at Midway).  My new computer now sees that the drive is there, BUT the data displayed under a name of file/folder (dec22a69bbd43e6966c9935e4720f7).  Data include WORD files, EXCEL files and .jpg files.  When I click on this long file/folder name, I get a long list of records as well as other unknown files that I don't recognize.  Inside each of the files is the SAME set of files (EULA, LocalizedData and SetupResources.dll.  When I try to save a WORD or EXCEL file on this disk, I tells me that the drive is empty, then the path and destination does not allow me to record anything.  I suspect that the problem lies in the Windows 7 software to recognize the hard drive but, I'm totally new to this Windows 7.  Everyone recognizes what is the problem?   I KNOW that the data is always there because I ran my virus on this single drive software and I could see many file names as they were read.

  • Western Digital WD10EARS internal hard drive Caviar Green 1 TB - my system does not recognize the new drive

    I recently bought a computer Dell 4700 to a friend with Windows XP installed. I've updated the memory to 2 GB and now seeks to install a WD10EARS 1 TB harddrive. The new works of fine memory is not the hard drive. My system does not recognize the new drive. I contacted WD for help and they told me to try diferent rider combinations that were Jumper 1-2 and 5-6, still does not work, I checked the hardware compatibility list and he said he would start uo without modification. This isn't. I would be very greatlyful for any suggestions, to HELP!

    I've had several people tried to help me solve my problem. They were all, I thought, more than I am computer savvy. As time progressed, solutions became more complex. After they all left without resolution I thought and it appeared to me that the simplest solution might be correct. One person had checked. I turned on the computer and when the Dell logo came I pushed the F12 key to open the Dell configuration screen. The drive on which the new drive has been installed has NOT been activated! Duh! I activated the he and the program Acronis recognized and everything went like clockwork after that. Phew! What relief! Thank you for your comments I am just glad that my problem it doesn't require resolution. Are Mod

    I just plugged it because that's the way I was told to do.
    I need to download the drivers to operate?
    It will work on my laptop, or is it a "most recent" CD player that will not work with my laptop?

    I'd appreciate any help. THX

    The BIOS does not recognize this new CURIOUS because the player seems not to be fully compatible.
    I think there bad master/slave/c-salt settings

  • My HP Deskjet 5740 printer does not recognize my new HP Photocartridge 348

    My HP Deskjet 5740 printer does not recognize my new HP Photocartridge 348. It is brand new, not expired, official but I only get black prints. I can't find anything useful on the HP support site. The printer is not set to only print in black.

    The cartridge goes in the slot for cartridges of blacks, there is no colourcartridge in the other location at this time. So either he needs a color cartridge to work together (but how to know I'm not only to print my photos with the colourcartridge and using the photocartridge as a black cartridge cheap?) or the printer believes that the photocartridge is just one other black ink cartridge.

    Any suggestions?

    The Photo cartridge has not all the colors, Photo black, cyan and light magenta.  It is used in conjunction with the color cartridge (which feeds the cyan, magenta and yellow) for photo printing.

    If you want to print in color, you will need a color cartridge.  The color cartridge can print in black (approximately) by itself, but the photo or black print cartridge cannot print without the color cartridge color.

    Currently, I have Photoshop CS5 with Adobe Bridge. The upgrade online for Photoshop CS6 includes upgrades to the bridge? I recently bought a camera Nikpn D810. The old version of the bridge does not recognize the D810 Camera Raw format. Thanks for any help.

    New digital camera sometimes means an upgrade of the software, as in this case.

    Camera Raw plugin | Supported devices

    Applications of camera Raw compatible Adobe

    First, the D810 is supported in camera Raw which is compatible with the CS6 and later versions 8.6.

    Options:

    1. Pay for upgrade to CS6
    2. Join the cloud to Adobe
    3. Download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all the D810 Raw files to DNG, and then edit the DNG in CS5 helps Photoshop | Digital Negative (DNG)

    The Magentic program does not work with newer versions of windows

    Hello danielbrauer,

    The magnetic site says the requirements are for Windows XP or higher. However, it is not on the Windows Vista or the Windows 7 Compatibility Center.

    You can try the following to see if it will help with compatibility. If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.
    Use the following steps:
    (1) right click on the program
    2) click Properties
    3) click on the Compatibility tab
    (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

    Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

    If this does not help, you can contact the magnet to see if they have an updated version.

  • Cannot use my printer Officejet 4635 to the Mexico. Printer does not recognize the new cartridge.

    I moved my printer in Mexico City, HP Officejet 4635. It uses #61 cartridges. I was told that the 61 in the United States is the same as the #122 to the Mexico. However, the printer say it does not recognize the cartridge.

    Can someone give me some advice?

    Hi artist1234,

    Welcome to the HP Forums.

    Why the printer does not is because the unit is not regionalized for this part of the country.

    To get the printer to work, you will need to contact HP Total Care so that a representative from HP can regionalize the printer for you.

    If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836.  Seeing that you are in Mexico, please click here to access the information page you need.

    Thanks for your time.

    See you soon,.
