"Scan to computer" Officejet Pro 8600-Windows 7 computer software HP JO 8600 Pro is installed and works normally but the scans light in directory 'default' on the computer that is not where I want them to go.  How can I change the "default" directory?

  • Unable to scan from my HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus to my Mac iOS 10.10

    Just bought a new Mac and execution of Yosemite. Tried to add my 8600 and it prints but will not scan. When you try to scan to the computer, a message "the HP software required for the Scan of the computer could not be located on this computer. Please download and install the latest HP recommended software for your device to http://www.hp.com/support and then try again. "When I followed the link, he directs me to download the driver again... and the beginning of the cycle. I tried to uninstall completely while following the previous suggestions in the forum, but nothing did.

    I'm a new Mac user, but just can't understand why it would work on my PC and not the new Mac.

    Hi castagmc,

    Welcome to the HP Forums.

    I see that you experience a problem when you attempt to get the new Yosemite driver installed for the printer.

    I have some suggestions that we can try to solve this problem.

    First of all, please remove the cable usb from the printer and Mac and leave that it disconnected until further notice.

    I have a link that I give you which gives detailed instructions for uninstalling the printer software.

    Once the uninstall is complete, reboot the Mac for changes to take effect.

    When the Mac is back running, disable any anti virus protection, you can running. We don't want anything to get in the way when reinstall us.

    The next step is to download and install the HP Officejet Pro 8600 series full feature software and drivers.

    The installation will prompt you as to connect the usb cable then please do not it connect before hand.

    Please do not hesitate to write me again if you have any other questions.

    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, please click here: click here.

  • Re: How to scan legal size in OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus documents

    How to scan legal size documents in Office Jet Pro 8600 Plus?

    In fact, the problem was located. I is broke and finally called HP support. It turns out that, contrary to the information that I have seen elsewhere, legal size paper MUST be analysed the ADF, not the dish. You can see a white band across the plateau where the search starts. The dish is physically unable to accommodate legal communication. Once the original is loaded in the ADF, the size of the document options now include legal communication.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus Scan quality issue

    Hello

    I just set up my HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus, and everything seems to work properly.  I am really disappointed by the quality of the images so, so I thought I'd see if anyone has experienced the same problem?

    The scanned images are very dynamic, but are too.  Detail is lost in the scan either because the brightness, or because the scanner is not properly using the resolution I have him ask to scan (600 dpi).  I have tried various different brightness and contrast settings in the scan dialog, nothing helps.  Printing HP and Scan Doctor reported no problem.  Increase the resolution of scanning on the 8600 is not helped either.

    I joined a segment of an image of the 8600 and a lot cheaper all-in-one I expected to replace, a canon mp630.  I have bought the 8600 because the scanner component had good reviews, but based on my experience, that I'm starting to have my doubts!

    Please let me know if you think there's nothing I can do to improve the quality of the scans?

    I use Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit.

    Thank you

    Pete

    8600 scan 600 dpi (Note lack of paper grain)

    Canon MP630, 600 dpi (capture of paper grain, wash the details)

    Unfortunately, I must point out that the replacement was no better.  It's a real shame, old flat scanner HP I was replacing with the ACM was high quality, but the Pro 8600 scanner was simply not enough good.

    Ultimately I exchanged for another manufacturer MFP that produces a large part analysis better (even if printing is not as good).

    I had much rather have paid more for a higher quality scan on the HP, but this option is not available to me, which is a shame!  On the 8600 Pro scan color reproduction was great, but there not only to capture the details.

    You can adjust for color problems in the software, but if the detail is not captured, you can't put it in!

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus - ADF scanning problem

    Hello

    I recently bought this printer and used without problem for almost 2 months. However, right now I am struggling with the ADF.

    When I put a document to scan by ADF, I have a thin, black line on re-impressions. It is on the right side of the page, starts from everything at the top and goes down all the way.

    I have even if it is a kind of alignment line (you know when we write try, or its composition, leave us space on both sides)

    This problem does not exist when I scan and print documents of old school way, aka analysis usual. Only the ADF documents'ed have this problem a little. (The thin black line on things reprinted)

    Any recommendations?

    Best regards

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus: vertical line when scanning

    I get a vertical line when I scan using the document feeder.  I do not understand when scanning the glass plate. I need assistance to access the mirror slider.  I raised the lid for the loading of documents, but I couldn't find out how to get under the rollers to clean the mirror. Thank you

    The document here can help solve the black lines to scan using the ADF on your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus.  From my experience this is almost always caused by a specification on the thin glass on the side left which is used for scanning using the ADF.  Cleaning of this area as described in the above document should solve the problem.  If the initial cleanup does not resolve the problem, it can help to shine a bright flashlight almost parallel to the glass.  For a line on the left side of the printed page, the place will be toward the front of the printer, if the line is on the right side of the document, it must correspond to a specification to the rear of the printer.

    HI, how can I scan a picture and only the witout the rest. On a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus?

    When I scan I got my photo and all white for the rest of the screen

    It has no function of machine harvest in the 8600 software. To get the exact size, you will need to manually set the size for the scans that you do. You can find the setting by clicking on the blue link to advanced settings in the first scan window. Will take you to a place that will allow you to change the size of the scanning area. Hope that helps.

    Hi @markg2,

    Thank you for showing your interest in the HP's Support Forums!

    I see that you want to create a shortcut to the HP scanning. I will definitely do my best to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and mark "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.

    I understand how frustrating this is for you. Windows 10 has made some changes, so that the steps are slightly different from Windows 7.

    Please follow these steps as a guideline:

    1. First of all, we need to locate HP Scan where on the computer. The default location is in Program Files. For example, C:\Program Files (X 86) \HP or Hewlett-Packard.
    2. Go to (C:\Program Files (X 86) \HP or Hewlett Packard HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus\Bin)
    3. Right-click on HP Scan, and then click send to.
    4. Left click on desktop (create shortcut) to place the shortcut on the desktop.

  • Not completely scan legal size with Officejet Pro 8600 more Documents

    I'm trying to scan legal documents of sizes on my Officejet Pro 8600 Plus new. I have gone through the forums, and this has been a recurring problem in the past (see link- http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Scanning-Faxing-and-Copying/Scanning-Legal-Size-Documents/m-p/35416#M14...   ), but doesn't seem to be resolved.

I can't find any setting on the scanner itself, or in the HP Utility software to change this, or even to be able to identify the current configuration, if it is a.

  • Automatically create color PDF can not deposit Officejet Pro 8600 Plus

    I have an Officejet Pro 8600 Plus and an Apple OSX Yosemite iMac running. I installed the full software from the HP support site, and in particular the analysis of the HP is version 4.4.1 (21).

    I want to create a color PDF directly in a file on my computer to the scanner.

    If I select Save as PDF, I get a b & w image in a file that is automatically created.

    If I select print daily scan opens in HP Scan and I am able to create an image in color, but with additional steps.

    I looked at other similar topics in 2012 and 2013 and saw advice to change the mode in HP utility/Scan to computer/change Scan tasks/editing, but there is no option of color Mode.

    Finally, I figured this out. It CAN be done.

    Go to HP utility/Scan of the computer.

    Make sure that enable Scan to computer is checked.

    Select Edit analysis jobs

    Select Save as PDF/change

    In the presets drop-down, select generalist

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus the Scanner Software

    Hello

    I'm a big fan of HP products.  My last several printers, scanners and computers were all HP.

    I recently bought the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus to replace an older machine with similar features (ADF, duplex, etc.).  The previous machine was also an HP printer.

    The problem I encounter is that the software appears to have been downgraded.  The software on my previous machine had the ability to automatically analyze the photos laid on the flat bed scanner in individual jpg.  With the software on this computer, it seems that I need to manually crop each image.  The options for optimization of each picture, eliminating scratches, automatically adjust color, sharpness, etc. are all gone.

    I really miss these features.  I found that I had been using a "basic" version of the software.  I installed the full version and found it a little different, but it still lacks the automatic selection of the image and image tweaks I did this inveterate of.

    Is it possible to recover these options?

    Thank you

    I just wanted to add my own suggestions here for the issue of two-sided printing that you had with your Officejet 8600.

    You can try to update the firmware: get the latest Firmware and updates

    If this does not help, try to uninstall the printer software , reboot the PC and reinstall the printer. This should dissipate all software problems.

    I hope that helps!
