  • Scanner communication cannot be established.

    I have a Photosmart 5520 series printer - I've had it for almost a year now.  I've always had no problem printing or scanning.  Out of the blue today, he scanned a letter from offbeat page 3 warped.  I decided to turn off the printer and turn it back on.  Then he started giving me this message:

    Scanner communication cannot be established.  Photosmart 5520 series [4EABA] is currently unavailable.  Make sure that your device is turned on, check the connection and make sure that your network is working properly.  If these conditions are correct, restart the device and try to scan the image.

    I rebooted a number of times, even tried to leave the app scan to desktop and back on, checked the WiFi connection, all good - still get the same message.  I found an ad on this site with HP Scan doctor, but it was only for the PC, and this House is 100% Mac.  Help?

    (LAN on the router or wireless) network printer? You have DHCP on the router (it is by default) and whenever you turn on the printer, the router can give it a new IP address, and it will cause "communication error" because the computer looking at its in-memory data cache, is still talking to the printer on another address. You will need to wait a few minutes for the computer to re - discover the printer, or simply restart the computer.
    If you know how to assign a fixed IP address on the router, do that it can avoid a lot of headaches like this.

    Hello

    According to the error message, it seems like test software communicates with a different printer than the CM1415.

    Open the HP Scan 3 application, located under Applications > Hewlett-Packard.

    Click HP Scan in the top menu, then click Preferences.

    Be sure to select the HP Laserjet CM1415 drop Scanners, close its window and click on the scan button.

    You don't see any cdifference?

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 scanner software

    I am running Windows Vista and just bought the printer HP OfficeJet Pro 8600. I'm having a hell of a time with this printer and is seriously considering to go back if I can't get this figured out as soon as possible.

    When I open the software HP OfficeJet Pro 8600, open it from the main panel I double click on the 'Scanner Actions' button, then on the "Scan Document or Photo" button, nothing happens. I can not get the scanner software to open so that I can control my options of scan of the computer.

    Thus, starting from printer control box, when I go to scan, I am only able to "Scan to Network Folder" and can not scan to computer. The message I get is "computer is unavailable.

    I am able to "Scan to Network Folder" so I'm not too concerned about this issue, however, I have to be able to access the scanner software so that I can set my parameters of scanning etc. on my computer.

    I buy the device for the wireless. I could not access the software when you are connected wireless with so I tried to connect via USB. No difference what so ever.

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software 4 times so far. 2 times since the CD and 2 times from the website of HP software.

    Hey dleman. Sorry to hear that you have questions and I thank you for your detailed messages. I would try using the doctor printing & scanning HP. This tool will attempt to solve the problem for you and provide a specific code if it cannot solve the problem.

    Let me know how it goes and if this does not resolve the problem, we can go from there.

    Thank you

  • HP Deskjet 2540: Scanner Communication cannot be established.

    My scanner does not work. I am connected by USB. I've tried everything suggested by HP print and Scan doctor. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the software for the device, but it still does not work. I'm very angry because it worked fine for 3 months. I went out of town for the winter holidays and took my computer with me. I left my HP Deskjet 2540 to my apartment. Now that I'm back it no longer works.

    Here are the mistakes doctor analysis gives me:

    Driver error:

    The scanning driver is unable to communicate with the product.

    HP Scanner Twain error:

    I followed the steps, he told me but even after restarting the computer of the Scan Doctor is unable to solve the problem and he just told me to come here and ask online. I really need this scanner set as soon as possible for my work in the classroom. It is very frustrating that my HP Deskjet 2540 broke shortly after buying it.

    Too bad. Solved the problem by changing a connection of 3 USB-a USB 2 connection. For some reason any Scanner HP Deskjet 2540 cannot use via a USB 3.0 connection.

    I don't know why it is exactly, but that's what I did and now it works.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus N911G: Cannot use the Scan to PC, option on my printer

    I recently updated from Windows 8.1 for Windows 10 and had to reinstall my printer drivers and software.  Since doing so, the office of my printer scanning function did not work.

    When I use the option on the printer, I get the message that no computer I'm done to open the HP printing software, select the scanner actions and select manage the scan of the computer.  The only thing is that twhen, I go to the HP folder in my Start menu, there is no installed printer HP software.

    I went to the page support and download the complete software solution for my printer and ran the installation, but I still do not have anything that will allow me to select the actions of scanner, and then select manage the scan of the computer.

    I even tried to use HP Print and scan v4.7 doctor.  He said full software solution is not installed on my computer and it gives me a button to click to download the software, and it is said that it downloads all the 123 file meg, then it gives me an error download failed message and offers try again immediately, but it fails every time.

    My printer is connected to my PC via my WIFI router.

    Hey there,
    Try the next step, I believe that this will help you overcome the problem.
    1. remove the printer driver of "devices and printer" which is located in Control Panel.
    2 Download this file (http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software12/COL40120/bi-108858-4/OJ8600_1315-1.exe), which is the solution full HP JO 8600 series.
    3. extract the contents of the file.
    4. open the "Utils" folder and choose the folder 'x 64', inside you should be able to locate a file called "RemovePreInstalledDrivers" > once you open this file black screen opens, wait for it to close, then move to the next step.
    5. go to the main folder where you have already extracted the software and right click on the file x 64.msi (name is most likely your printer model), then choose the Option "repair". > Subsequently, you will be asked of preformed a reboot. (Incase you will get a Messege saying "this action is only valid for products that are currently installed" simply double-click the file instead)
    6. after the restart, the head disk Local C/ProgramFiles/HP/PrinterModelFolder/bin/USBSetupLuncher and double click it.
    7 start the installation, choose the wireless option.

    Who should add the scanner to your imaging devices.
    Best Of luck ~

  • OfficeJet PRO 8600: 10 Windows cannot print checks with Excel sheet I used in Windows 7

    I received an update for Windows 10 Windows 7 without having to ask (impressive!). I had set up an Excel spreadsheet in Windows 7 Office 10, which worked very well, even if it has been formatted as a 8.5 by 11 "page in landscape. I had to Center vertically on the page. In Windows 10 my 8600 PRO now gives me an error that the blank check is an invalid page size. How can I get the printer to accept the blank check?

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600: connected but cannot print

    We just moved our office and have a new WIFI configuration. At our previous location, everything worked well, but since the move, a computer will not print from any application - Pages, Word, Email, etc.

    We have two Mac wireless connected to a printer, and both seem to be successfully connected. Both are able to print pages and information via the HP utility test, but as I said, one of the computers is unable to print documents from applications. (The other computer prints just fine.) When you attempt to print the HP icon in the dashboard shows a red dot with the number 1 in this document, as it should be, but after a few seconds him point disappears and nothing prints. Of more blue light that is supposed to be on when it is connected to the WIFI isn't on.

    I tried to resolve this all day with no luck. I couldn't find anything in the forums that helped. Hoping that someone has had a similar experience or a few ideas. Thank you.

    UPDATE: just in case someone having a similar problem, see this post.

    I uninstalled the driver on the computer that gave us wrong then reinstalled version fresh and everything works as it should. Don't know why I didn't try it earlier. Well.

  • After the restart of mac OS x lion, the scanner hp wireless officejet pro 8600 does not appear.

    The printer works properly from the computer with Wi - Fi. The copy of front button works correctly to print a copy of the document on the scanner. But when you run the HP Scan 3 application, the error message is displayed: scanner communication cannot be established. OfficeJet Pro 8600 [CDD814] is currently unavailable. Make sure that your device is turned on, check the connection and make sure that your network is working properly. If these conditions are correct, restart the device and try to scan the image.

Using the system preferences > Print & Scan shows the printer but does not show the scanner. By selecting the button scan in the box dialog does not reveal a scanner.  Device is only 1 month. Help!

    I have connected to the Live cat HP, which has accompanied me through the process. It turns out that I had to delete the printer, then turn off the router and the printer. Reload the drivers from the CD. Reboot the router and the printer, and then run the installation program. Seems the router, "forgotten" on my printer and scanner. Thank you, HP!
