    Hi @janmoore

    Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support. I understand that you can not print. I would like to help.

    So that I can help you better, I have a few questions.

    What is the printer connected to the computer via a wireless network or via a USB cable?

    Did you run the HP print and Scan Doctor? (If not, give him a race)

    You receive a specific error message?

  • "Could not read data" when you try to print from Android

    Hello. I have a printer HP Officejet 6700 Premium, which is connected via ePrint/HP connected to my Google account so that I can print from my Google devices (Cloud Print). While this works very well when printing from my laptop (29 Chrome on Ubuntu 13.04), it does not when printing my Nexus 10 (Android 4.3) or my Galaxy Nexus (CyanogenMod 10.1.3). I tried printing both outside and inside the network on which the printer is on, but whenever I get "could not read data" in the Cloud Print dialog box. It seems that Cloud Print knows that the printer exists, since it is on the list, but it cannot communicate with the printer. Any way to solve this problem? He's good enough additional features only on my previous printer, who died of old age.

    It seems to me that the question is in fact Cloud Print related. Here is the support page: https://support.google.com/cloudprint/?rd=1

    Remember that Google Cloud Print is still in beta phase. Good luck tomslominski.

  • Confirmation page when faxing directly from the printer, but not when fax from a computer in network

    I have an Officejet Pro 8600 more network (using the wireless) all-in-One.

    If I fax directly from the printer (using scanning and fax), I receive a confirmation page.

    When I fax from my computer in a network (using the 'Fax - Hp Officejet Pro 8600 (network)' pilot), the status display shows 'composition', 'connection' and 'send '. However, no confirmation page is printed.

    How can I set up the printer to publish one page of confirmation if the fax printer OR my computer using the wireless connection?

    Thanks for your help and your time.

    Planckster

    Hi Planckster,

    A report by Fax of Confirmation is an available option when sending the device itself.

    When sending a fax from your PC, you can find the most recent history of fax by opening the HP software.

    Click on manage the Fax setting, and click Fax history.
    The screen list a report on the recent work of fax, a printed report is not an option for this task, however.

  • Not able to scan from the printer to my computer control panel using the HP Photosmart 5510

    Hello

    I recently bought the new HP Photosmart 5510 all in one - and I am not able to scan from my printer to my computer.

    I am however able to scan by launching the scan of the computer. I talked to HP customer earlier this evening and we ran printing + scan doctor and can't find any problems.

    I am running Windows 7-64 bit and that you have installed my wireless printer using the Installation CD supplied with the printer today.

    I could not finish troubleshooting with the technician that I talked to because I had to go to work. The person that I spoke with proposed possibly the full functionality of software downloaded from the hp.com site, which I'm happy to do, but I think that it is useless, because I have the CD of installation here. (The rep that I talked to was very nice, but I prefer not to have to uninstall and reinstall if it is not necessary)

    Because as I mentioned above, everything works perfectly and I am able to scan - but not directly from the printer itself.

    When I try to scan from my printer to my computer an error message appears on the control panel of the printer indicating that: there is no scan destination options of analysis chosen / no..

    However, I can't find anywhere with my HP software where I could add / make sure that the destinations were there. (As I could on my other printers. (IE. By the solution Center)

    This printer does not appear to be a solution center that I could find and the scanner installed with the CD icon doesn't give me any options regarding changing the settings of the parser

    I wonder:

    1. the Hp Photosmart 5510 does not have the capacity to scan from the printer control panel?

    2 OR the CD installation provided with my printer only has the base drivers as the agent of tech support suggested? Which means to scan from my printer I need to download drivers for your hp Web site?

    3. or is the problem because of something else entirely?

    Thanks for your help!

    HI Dublin,

    Follow the steps below to uninstall and reinstall the printer.

    1. open Control Panel

    2. click on uninstall a program

    3 uninstall the Photosmart 6510 in the list

    4 restart your computer

    5. download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player

    6 download the drivers and full software functionality, and then reinstall the printer.
