Photosmart HP 6520: Cannot scan afterWindows 10 update

Even if I can print everything from upgrading to Windows 10 I can't scan from the printer to my laptop. A message appears on the printer stating "Connection error" the computer does not respond. "Check the cable USB is attached. Obviously is that I can print as usual. Can anyone help?

Hi Doc, thanks for theinfo and your time and effort. After going through all new with Daniel to the HP Support, it seems that the USB port on the printer may be at fault. Who changed things to scan wireless, it wasn't a problem and everything worked. Printing from my laptop to the printer was also no problem. The laptop recognises the printer via the USB cable, but not the reverse. Daniel has once more remotely connected to my system and made all of the aforesaid goods. Looks like I'll have to either scan wirelessley or use the scan on my desktop shortcut. Prohibition to buy another printer, wireless scan shortcut it will take. Thank you once more and also Mark, Laura, Patrick, Gavin, Jake and Daniel at HP

    Hello @ghost01and welcome to the Forums of HP, I hope you enjoy your experience!

    I see that you are having problems scan feature.  I would like to help!

    I would recommend starting with a power reset.  Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

    I recommend also to download and run the HP print and Scan doctor.

    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting operations. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

    Welcome to the @Jackman1933forums, I hope you do well!

    I have seen that you are facing some problems of scanning when scanning your Photosmart 7520, your system Windows 10 and I hope to help.

    Lets first make sure you have full functionality drivers and software installed on your computer by running the HP printer install wizard for Windows, which will be to find and install your printer software for you. Just follow the instructions until it is installed.

    When you are finished, you should see the printers on your desktop software. From there, open and try to scan. If you do not see the options you are looking for, or if there is no problem, let me know and I will do my best to help you through it.

    Good luck, I hope to hear from you. If you want to send me a 'thanks' for my attempts to help, click on the thumbnails below.

  • Cannot scan to the computer. Photosmart 6510

    I have just purchase a photosmart 6510 and I cannot scan to the computer.  The printer tells me that I need to activate this via the printer software.  I know that I have installed all the software from the disc supplied.

    I can't find where I have activate the scan of the computer on my laptop.  Support information tells me to click the icon for the printer to my desktop, I do not have!  I tried going through the control panel and impossible to find something there.

    I go in the HP folder in my Start menu and click on scan HP that I get the following message "the machine HP photosmart 6510 series is not found".  I don't have a problem with printing at all.

    Tried to start printing and scanning of doctor and who did not make a difference. (In fact, the scan option came not on it).

    How can I fix this please?  I'm running Windows Vista Home premium.

    Hello.  Thanks for your reply.

    I've sorted really the problem now.  But let me explain what it was.

    I tried tool doctor who recommended you after browsing these forums, without success.  In fact, when I ran the scanner, he told me that he had no problem with printing, but there was no mention of the scanning anywhere.

    In fact, I uninstalled all HP software, removed the printer from my control panel.  Then reinstalled the software from the disc and then installed the printer again (I did things the opposite of the front walkway).  And the scanner function now works.

  • Book of Mac: cannot scan more.

    I have a C4680. Cannot scan more. What could be the problem? Then I tried to download a HP drive, thinking that he could solve the problem. The display shows: click on 'Download' to start the download. But where is the button "Download"?

    Thank you.

    Hi @Sky1 ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I see that you can not scan with your HP Photosmart c4680, on Mac OS X 10.10. I'm happy to help you!

    For this printer on Mac OS X 10.10 it there's no full feature software and drivers from HP. Only a generic driver that is built into the operating system, as described in this guide, HP printers - install Mac printer driver using Apple Software Update.

    To scan, you will want to go through this post, Re: iMac OS X 10.9.3 Scan for iMac driver for HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 a A910a does not appear to be, by my colleague @Sunshyn2005. Even if this post is for a different printer and operating system, it will always apply to your situation.

  • Photosmart HP 6520: HP Photosmart 6520 - error message when you try to use the apps

    I can't access is more apps on my Photosmart HP 6520.  I get the error message "error connection server - 1".

    I don't know if this problem just since I recently changed from a Windows PC on a Mac.

    I very rarely use the apps, so I don't know when it started.

    Everything else seems to work very well I would say.

    Can someone please tell me what could be the cause, or if there is something I can try to sort it out?

    I seem to be going round in circles, and I can't work on what is happening.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hey @TraceyMac,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.  I hope you enjoy your experience here.

    I understand that you are unable to use the pads (Print Apps) on your HP Photosmart 6520 e-all-in-one printer.  I want to help you with this.  A recent installation of printer would not affect your performance of platelets but no loss of connection or wireless Web services could be a factor.

    Note that to access the applications and their use from the front panel of your printer requires two ingredients to be successful: 1) Wi - Fi connection and 2). the ePrint feature (webservices are enabled).

    • Touch the wireless icon () on the front panel of your printer - is the printer connected to your wireless network?  (If not, run the wireless configuration wizard, select your network name/SSID and enter your password wireless reconnect).  If you are connected, proceed as explained below.
    • Tap the icon of webservices/ePrint () on the front panel of your printer.
    • If webservices are not enabled, press OK in order to enable them and allow the automatic updates of printers.
    • This will cause your printer to print an information document describing the characters before @hpeprint.com your printer (ePrint address).  This is known as the claim code.  As another way to use printing applications available for your printer, you can sign in to http://www.hpconnected.com to program applications printing to print and review all the content that ideally will reappear on the front of your printer.
    • From there, you can click the devices tab and use the claimcode to add your printer to the site and take advantage of the available applications, it.

    If these basic steps to respond to a resolution, please, try the following:

    When users encounter this type of problem in general, I suggest from scratch with wireless printer, webservices, and apps printing configuration.  You can clear all of these parameters in a swoop by the factory default restore * your printer.

    Here's how:

    * Note that this step resets the setting up your printer wireless, address ePrint and other custom print settings. If you have created a custom address @hpeprint.com it is permanently erased. For more information about custom addresses ePrint, click here.

    • Front panel of the printer, arrow down and select Tools
    • Select restore default

    Then touch the wireless icon, run the Wireless Setup Wizard to restore your network connection, and then tap the Webservices () and reactivate your webservices.

    If you are able to successfully reactivate your webservices, tap on the icon of your printer wireless () and make a note of the IP address of the printer.  Then, follow these steps to configure a manual DNS:

    • Enter the printer's IP address in a web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer) and press ENTER to go directly to this page.
    • Click the network tab.
    • In the submenu on the left, click Networking.
    • Then click on the network (IP) address.
    • Click Manual DNS server.
    • DNS preferred as 8.8.8.8 manual entry
    • Auxiliary DNS server entry as 8.8.4.4
    • Click on apply to finalize this change.

    No none of the suggestions above restored the functionality you're looking for?  Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post.  If I helped you to solve the problem, feel free to say "You rock!" by clicking the "Thumbs Up" icon below and by clicking to accept this solution.

  • Photosmart HP 6520 prints only in black, even if only selected

    When I select 'black fast project only', I get a printing color. I replaced the black cartridge and the test print just fine. So everything I do or try, can't do the printer to print black scale and Yes more, I have this default :-).

    I use OS X 10.9 Mavericks.

    Driver software & installed properly.

    Please advice. I have about 400 slides to print for studies and most of them is color pdf, it's expensive to print in full colour.

    Thank you in advance!

    Hey Ladyli

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I see you try to print in black and white for your Photosmart HP 6520, but since I use Mavericks even if you have defined, printing prints always in color.

    I would like that you do the following:

    Reset the printing system

    1. click on the Apple icon and then click on System Preferences.

    2. in the hardware section, click Print & Fax/scanning. Dialog Print & Fax/scan opens.

    3.right - click (or Ctrl + click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system...

    4. click OK to confirm the reset.

    5 type the name and the correct password.

    6. click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows any selected printer

    Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer deleted can be re-added later by clicking the sign plus (+) symbol.

    Now go ahead and add the printer to the back and continue here: OS X Mavericks: set the print options

    You are now able to print without color? I'll watch for your reply.

    Thank you
