Scan and copy quality - unwanted line

I have a C7280 into one bought in late 2007, connected to a Mac running OSX 10.5.8. When I scan or copy using the document feeder, recently, I started to have a single, perfectly straight black line (not a streak or finger) on the left side of each page. This happens not when I use the scan or copy window, or when I print a document the computer off. I followed the solutions 1 and 2 in self-help customer service, but the problem remains. Please notify.

Hello DB99

Function of the printer, there is usually a bunch of small glass or a box in the ADF, sometimes it can be missed. If you can locate I would say clean it according to the instructions. Like the article I believe that you read indicated if Solution 1 and 2 does not work Solution 3 is that it should be repaired.

  • Photosmart C5180 scanning and copy problem

    Scanning and copying service, computer and also the printer button produce entirely black (not empty) pages with lines vertical and horizontal of different shades of black.

    Uninstalled, reinstalled, used doctor scan, download software uptodate and the driver. What can I do else?

    Author: heborn

    Hello 11540.

    Try to reset the all-in-one (turn off and on again).

    Then try to copy using the control panel buttons, but open the scanner cover to see if the light is turn on. If this isn't the case, then I'm afraid this is a hardware failure and you will need the service unit.

    See you soon!

  • scanning and copying problem

    Hi all

    I have an officejet pro 8600. He developed a failure when scanning and copying only. It prints very well. When scanning/copying in black and white I get only a series of black lines vertical, probably 100 or more, arranged like a bar code. When you use the color I get 3 or 4 vertical lines in cyan. I do not hear from the current page scanned/copied. I suspect the scanner itself is faulty, but any help would be received with gratitude.

    Thanks Steve

    Hi Steve.

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    Sorry to hear you have a problem with lines on your Scan and copy.  I got it exactly the same problem with this printer very and I could solve the problem by making a simple step. Now, this will sound a bit crazy and I hope you are open minded.  Plug the power cable directly into a wall... pretty crazy huh?  HP printers have already built in surge protector, and if you have connected it to a power supply/Strip bar, the printer will get all the power it needs to function properly. You are probably currently you are yourself, "Ive always had this printer connected to a strip/Bar and have never had any problems.  Well, let me tell you that you probably had issues with the printer that only they were issues that you would not notice.  Brightness, the screen feel slower, a little more time to get out of the way 'sleep'... that are just a few things that could took place in the Strip bar.  Just so you know I'm not send you smoke signals, this is a document that shows all the questions when it is connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power.  Now, if this does not resolve your problem, I need for you to let me know so that I can give you other possible fixes for this issue.

    I'm always here to help then feel free to write again.

    Thanks for your time Steve.  Let me know how make you out.

  • 8500 a duplex scanning and copying

    I can't find how to do double sided scaning and copy with the 8500. It is possible at all?

    I have the 8500 A909 all-in-one to work and it's pretty simple how to do duplex scanning and copying so I'm not sure if the feature is ' % s ' on the 8500 most recent a.

    Thanks for your help!

    Hello

    You use A910a or A910g A910n? Open the cartridge on the left front access door to see the model number. If she says A910a or A910g then, those two doesn't support automatic duplex, scan or copy as the document feeder has no duplexer in them

    If A910n, check the picture below. For the digitization of the s/w, you can find the setting «scan both sides (duplex)» For the copy, and then in the menu ==> settings copy printer, you can find the option "two sides - two-sided original copy.

  • C5180 scanning and copying the black leaves after Snow Leopard upgrade

    the machine prints since Mac perfectly, if there is a little bit slower than before starting and not offering is not the same features, even through an excerpt.

    However, scan and copy are leaves only in black.

    I made the suggested HP set again which did not improve anything; I looked at downloads of diagnoses, but they do not say that it is compatible with Mac.

    Is this problem one leopard snow associated one or is - just that the C5180 is dead?  If it's the snow leopard, can anyone advise me on how to fix it?

    If the copy does not work from the front panel, then your scanner is dead.  I'm sorry.

  • C410a - problems with scanning and copying

    Recently bought a new computer (Windows 7 64-bit).  The old computer had the c410a Photosmart all-in-one installed and works without any problem.  PCMover to transfer files from the old computer to the new.  Had some problems at the beginning, but downloaded the drivers for the c410a and could do print from the computer.  However, it does not scan or copy.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software several times to drive and keep it for the same problem.

    If I try to scan or copy of the printer, I get an error message saying that I should try to scan/copy of the computer instead.  When I try to use the HP Solution Center, I get an error message that says: Hpqdirec.exe - system error - "the program can't start because libexpatw.dll is missing on your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this program. "Then a second message appears that says Configuration ASF Broadcom -"system is busy and can not initialize.  Try again later. "As I said, I tried to reinstall the software that came with the printer several times and still get the same error messages.

    So, what don't get me?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thank you very much.

    Well, I think that I thought about it.  When I reinstalled the software, I assumed that all software has been reinstalled.  But apparently, only the drivers were installed and not the HP Solution Center software.  Is returned on the disc, saw a button for installing additional software, and then installed the Solution Center and that seems to have solved the problem.

  • Mac 10.5.8/HP Photosmart C4280 printer ORDER (will scan and copy ok)

    Help!  My printer scans and copies, but will not be printed.  I tried all the suggestions on the HP site, but none of the solutions proposed ago solved my problem.  How to DÉBOUCHERAS my printer?

    We will uninstall the software by using the "scrubber":

    Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard / click Uninstall HP
    Click on continue
    Highlight your device in the left pane
    Hold down the Ctrl and Opt Cmd and click on uninstall< scrubber="">
    There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall all hp software. (At this point, if you continue, all HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    Click on continue and let it finish

    Restart your Mac

    Now run a software update.

    Finally, download and install the "Full Featured" driver and software from the "Support & drivers" link at the top of this page.

  • HP officejet 4500 wireless - scan and copy questions

    I had to reformat the computer, so I reinstalled the printer. While she goes through the motions of scanning/copying, it does not scan/copy the image on the glass screen, but demonstrates rather empty. Any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    Welcome to the aharondavidforums.

    I saw your post on your Officejet 4500 scanning black images. You mentioned that the printer is also white image copy. Normally it is a scanner failure.

    I would like for you to try the steps in this guide to see if you get positive results:

    A "Failure of the Scanner" Message appears on the all-in-one control panel and you can not scan, copy, or fax

    If troubleshooting doesn't help not solve your problem, then I would say call the HP Technical Support to see all the other possibilities for you. If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions: click here.

  • HP 5510 Scan and copy is twisted

    When I copy or scan on my 5510, the resulting image is twisted - the left the bottom margin is 1 inch to the right of the margin on the left at the top of the screen.  I printed an alignment page (don't not quirky) and scanned the alignment page, but that has not fixed the problem. Any suggestions?

    Hello

    It seems that the alignment is fine. I suggest you do a hard reset with the printer. Unplug the laptop in the back of the printer and then on the wall. Once you disconnect the two, wait 30 seconds then plug it back in the printer first, then the wall.

    Go ahead and try the scan after the printer turns on.

    Let me know the results.
