OfficeJet 6600 will not computer scan

Hi, printer see the desktop but cannot access. Office has the scan of the active computer. Update driver and software for later. Downloaded Print & Scan doctor. Test comes with "Pilot error" - the scanning driver is unable to communicate with the device. Impressions of the fine of office. Running win 7 pro 64 bit, printer connected via usb. After scan doctor troubleshooting it says to contact support. Any thought that I am pulling my hair out. Thank you

Hello, I solved the scanning problem is none of the above. It turns out that this printer is not backwards compatible with usb 3.0 ports. I bought a USB 2.0 expansion card to install it in the computer and viola, it works. I had to find someone with this printer on another computer to check this first. My printer on a USB 2.0 on a different computer worked well. Problem solved

    Hello Plypal

    You can try the HP scan diagnostic utility first, but in general the failure of the Scanner is a hardware problem that must be repaired. You can find the number of the media on the link below as well as the link to the Diagnostic utilities.

  • OfficeJet 6600: officejet 6600 will not be installed

    I have a computer that is running Windows 7 (updated) with a 6600 Officejet attached via the USB port. It worked fine for 3 years, BUT I had to reinstall the printer 7 times in the last 2 weeks. When I turn off the computer at night and turn on the next morning and I begin to print something, I get "no printer installed." It SEEMS to make no difference if I turn the printer off or leave it on when I shut down the computer.

    Any ideas?

  • OfficeJet 6600 will not respond after several days of not used beirng

    After that the printer has not been used for long periods (days, even a few weeks), the wifi light is on, but apart from that the printer doesn't respond to touch screen. The only solution I found is to unplug the printer & it works when it is plugged in. It is not easy, the way in which the printer is sitting on a table to do this. Is there another way to 'better' to wake up?

    Hey, three things to check.

    (1) is the firmware updated?

    (2) IP is static?

    (3) is 6600 directly connected to the wall outlet?

  • My HP officejet 6500 will not print in colour without black. I tried to run the diagnostic, turning / of

    My HP officejet 6500 will not print in colour without black.  I tried to run diagnostics, turning on/off, changing the cartridge, mop up the cart - ink, withdrawal and the cartridges, printing a test page.  All to nothing does not.

    I continued to deepen the forum and found what was a soluntion for me.  I went to the configuration selected, then went to tools, it chose and then select printhead cleaning.  The first time that he clean the printhead, I only got six rectangles colored at the bottom of the test page printed.  My screen then asked if I wanted to get another clean process and I said YES.  Low and behold, the test print page not only the FCMA out with 6 colored rectangles but also tons of alphabets in black.  Hooray! His works again.  Hope this works for you.

  • My Officejet 7410 will not longer accept WPA2 network access

    My Officejet 7410 will not longer accept WPA2 network access. He's always worked with WPA2, but after using the temporary printer with USB attached the printer wouldn't connect more after unplugging the USB. The only way to connect wirelessly is using WPA. What is the cause of this problem who can and how can it be resolved?

    Well, since you can't access your router to make changes, the only thing I can say now is take the device to a friends house and attempt to connect to access to the router for the tests.

  • 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

  • All-in-one OfficeJet 6110 will not scan.

    I reinstalled and hardware (scanner) is recognized but will not give the ability to scan. I use Windows 7 32-bit but also windows virtual XP.  This problem has been uninstigated.  Does not work under XP 7 or virtual.

    I found this document which indicates the front button functions are limited in Windows 7, so if you try to scan form, it just will not work.  I also found this document which shows you all the different ways that you can scan with Windows 7.  Hope these helps.

  • HP Officejet 6600: Horizontal lines when scanning (digital glitch, no debris on scanner)

    Hello, can anyone advise on how to fix the horizontal lines that appear when you use the flat bed scanner (Hp Officejet 6600)?

    This function scan/unit worked well for a year and suddenly breakdowns at each attempt to analyze.  I went through several steps to try to resolve, including zero/restart the printer and the computer.   To clarify, this not a question of debris/ink etc on the bar of the Analyzer or glass; It's a digital bug (see attached image screenshot).

    I can't find many references about it on the HP forums or elsewhere.  If it helps you to offer a response, FYI I use a macbook, which has worked well with this scanner/printer until recently with this problem.  The printer function works fine.  Finally, I just downloaded the latest update from HP for this device through the App Store and it still gives the same error.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    @Jamiwa, welcome to the community of HP!

    I certainly hope that I can help you with the unrest sweeping have horizontal lines across your scans to your Officejet 6600, you notice your Mac running Yosemite. To add the steps that you have already tried, here are some of my suggestions for you.

    Try these steps in the following order:

    1. Reset the printing system
    2. Repair disk permissions
    3. Restart the Mac.
    4. Click here to download and install the full function driver: 6600 Officejet HP e-All-in-One Printer series - H711 Full Feature Software and Driver
    5. In addition, to download this driver: HP v3.0 for OS X printer drivers
    6. Try to scan the image

    Also try to make a copy of the front of the printer to see if they also show the flaws.

    Tip: Make sure that the printer is plugged directly into the wall, avoiding bars power and surge protectors. This ensures that the printer is full on.

  • OfficeJet 6500 will not display ink using Windows 7 levels.

    I have a HP Officejet 6500, model E709n wireless. My OS is Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1.  I downloaded and installed the drivers and software.  It will scan and print, but responses to double click on the scan and fax buttons is very slow.  It will not show ink levels.  I get a message that the computer cannot communicate with the printer.  The error message also tells me to check that the printer is on and the usb cable is connected.  Since they are obviously related, there is another problem.

    When I connected the printer to a computer running Windows XP Professional, everything works fine.

    Does anyone have a solution?

    Hey Bob,

    I suggest the doctor printing & scanning HP to see if it is able to solve your problem running. If should be able to recongize any wiring or driver error and solve them for you. If it does not solve the problem, post back with new details and will continue from there.

    Thank you!
