• Photosmart C7180 scan to PDF

  Recently I formatted my hard drive and reinstalled everything. I am running Windows XP Pro with SP3 and I downloaded the latest software for my all-in-one Photosmart C7180. I used to be able to scan a document to PDF using Adobe Standard 7, but I can turn it on is no longer. I uninstalled Adobe Standard 7 and installed Adobe Reader XI. Is it possible to scan a document to PDF using the Photosmart software Adobe Reader XI? I have not installed the OCR software, because I really feel that the OCR software is unreliable. I don't need to edit pdf documents or create them. I just want to be able to analyse any document as a pdf and then send the PDF as an attachment. When I open the HP Solution Center and choose to analyze a document, scan-to-pdf is not an option. I know there are a lot of free pdf programs scan, but before we go in this direction, I wanted to see if it is possible to use what I have already installed. Thank you.

  Hello

  The HP software uses the OCR engine to scan in PDF format, if you choose not to install the OCR the PDF option won't be available.

  Run the installation of HP once more and select this option to add additional software.

  Install the OCR application and restart your PC.

  Now you should see the PDF (or PDF that does not actually use the component OCR but simply scan in PDF or searchable PDF as option available) while clicking on scan a Document from the HP Solution Center.

  Adobe Reader is a PDF reader and not a PDF editor like Adobe standard or Pro who provide capability of scanning their duties change.

• Photosmart 5520: Scan to PDF file names

  Hello

  When I scan for PC:

  JPG--> I get file names Scan50001, -0002, -0003

  PDF--> I get file names Aug_ssn_GPunto_lug20140001, -0002, -0003

  The Red prefix is the name of the first scan to PDF, I did, which is repeated at any time.

  Is there a way to change this?

  Thx a lot

  Hello

  You can change, but it will keep up to your change as a prefix or you will have to appoint one by one afterwards. To change the prefix, please try your computer

  • Click the icon on the desktop printer,
  • Click on scan a Document or Photo.
  • Click on advanced (near bottom right).
  • Click the Destination tab,
  • Change file name,
  • Click Ok

  (The same for each type).

• Photosmart C7280 Scan to PDF

  Over the years, I have had this printer that it scanned to PDF very well.  Now all of a sudden it won't work.  I tried to use only Apple, only the drivers of HP drivers, and having both installed... nothing.  Is this a feature that went with the latest drivers for this printer?  If this is the case, I just need to know if I can put it on the sidewalk for the truck to pick up garbage.  Thank you.

  LarryMcJ,

  Have you tried to scan using the preview or Capture of Image?  It should do the same thing as the scan from the front panel.

  I like the 10.6 system because the drivers are included in the operating system.  I don't have to download the drivers with the software, I don't want not just to get the basic functionality.  My system is completely free of HP software and I like it like that.

  Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

  I think that you would have the ability to scan in PDF format with the software of the printer.

  If you have not done for awhile, please (re) install the software feature complete for the printer:

  Install full features software - Photosmart 7520

  Click on the Thumbs - Up Kudos to show that you appreciate the help.

  Click on accept as Solution when the answer provides a fix or a workaround!

  I am happy to provide assistance on behalf of HP. I do not work for HP.

• Error when scanning to PDF with OfficeJet J6413

  Hello

  Today I installed the printer on a Vista Ultimate 64 bit system (SW version is 100.100.065.000), after using it for more than 2 years on a Windows 7 computer. The printer is using the network driver.

  Printer: HP OfficeJet J6413 (EMEA region)

  Firstly, installation went smoothly, but it seems as if all components have been installed on the 3rd attempt (remove + restart + install).

  When you scan a PDF document using the HP Solution Center, the following error message is displayed (after that saying is not more pages, so a record sequence begins).

  Title: Error!

  Message:

  "

  An expected internal error occurred. Click OK to close the program, and then try the following:

  -Restart the program.

  -Restart the PC and then try again.

  -Reinstall the software photos & images and try again.

  8, [(6, 16,-2147221488)]

  "

  (Numbers below also appear in the dialog box).

  Not to mention that each of the above has worked and keeps the suggted error to appear, even during the scanning of the printer directly (scan to...).

  I'd appreciate your help with this.

  It has not happened before on Windows 7.

  Thank you

  Moti.

  I think that it is related to the OCR settings, which may react with various versions of Adobe reader differetly...

  In order to solve the problem, try the following steps:

  1. Open HP Solution Center
  2. Click scan Document
  3. Click change settings
  4. Select the Scan PDF shortcut, and then click Save in the file saving Options.
  5. Change the OCR language settings in English (United States), and then click OK.
  6. Click Save a shortcut to Scan, as the Scan shortcuts list column.
  7. Provide a name for the shortcut created picnic and approve

  Now, try scanning using the shortcut updated scan.

  Please let me know any progress,

• Scanner (Officejet 7500) cannot find the computer when you use shortcuts scan to printer

  When you choose Scan to PDF, e-mail, etc., by using the scanning on the 7500 buttons it allows me to select the computer on the network (each with all of the latest drivers and software loaded). However when about to the scanner and then says the computer is not found (whatever the) despite them being on and ready. Scanning by any other method of the Mac works. Automator shortcuts work very well during the tests, but they do not seem to get initiated by the scanner for scanning form of initiation of the printer itself.

  Research on the support site HP and conclusion - a 'connection error' or "Computer no. detected" Error Message displays when trying to Scan from the printer control panel - as a subject gives PC solutions, but nothing for Mac. And so here I am. Help!

  JKB

  The next thing to check is that "HP Device Monitor" is running.  This background process is responsible for detecting the keys for scanning applications.  If you open the activity monitor (located in/Applications/Utilities) you should see this class as one of the running processes.

  It may be generally preferable for you to perform an uninstall and reinstall the HP software.  You will find in Applications/Hewlett-Packard HP Uninstaller.  Use this utility to remove the old software.  I recommend that you download and install the latest version of the software for your 7500 here: http://tinyurl.com/4voly2d.
