Scanning with Paint in Windows 8

Hello everyone

Here's a video that shows how you can scan with Microsoft Paint in Windows 8.

Sometimes your scanning software may not work, or your printer may not have a print driver basis. If Yes, you can use Microsoft Paint to scan. Scan using MS Paint will allow you to save them as JPEG, BMP image files, etc. Digitization of paint cannot scan to PDF.

Scanning with MS Paint can also be used to as a troubleshooting step. If you are having problems scanning try using MS Paint. If it works, then the scanning equipment works properly.

When you install a printer driver in Windows 8, you can scan using paint from your computer without having to install any additional software to HP.

For other helpful videos, go to hp.com/supportvideos or youtube.com/hpsupport. Several support options for your printer are available at hp.com support.

I hope that the video turns out to be useful.

Scanning with paint, it's quick and easy to analyze something in an image format.

  • Scanning with Paint: Windows 8

    Have you ever tried to get the installation of analytical software, but just can't make it work?  During troubleshooting, it is sometimes necessary to try scanning 3rd party programs to see if it's simply a matter of driver/software conflict.

    Microsoft has included the ability to import the scans and photos of a multifunction printer using the Analyzer in Microsoft Paint.  HP has made a video with detailed instructions on how to do this type of research.  Check out the video below.

    Paint has the ability to do this type of research in most versions of Windows, but the video focuses on Windows 8.  The main difference between how this would be done on Windows 8 and earlier versions of Windows, this is how you can access the painting.

    I hope it's useful for some people.

    I've updated to Windows 10 and since then I can print but not scan with my HP 2210 all-in-one printer.  I tried to download the software updates, but nothing seems to work.  Any suggestions

    Hi @Sajapand @ddegan

    I see that you both scan problems after upgrade to Windows 10, and I may be able to help.

    Most of the products have updated software available on the HP support Web site for Windows 10.

    I also saw a few posts that say Windows 8.1 driver works for Windows 10 as well, then you could try also.

    HP provides a free tool called HP Print and Scan doctor to diagnose and troubleshoot printing and scanning problems. I recommend you to download and run the HP print and Scan Doctor , if she doesn't fix it automatically I would know what errors or messages that you receive.

    Do you know if you are able to scan using paint?

    To perform a scan of the painting: HP Multifunction printers - how Scan: Windows 8

    (This is the same for Windows 10, of what I said)

    1. Click the Start button () in the lower left corner of the screen, click on Searchand type Paint.
    2. Click on the painting in the results.
    3. Click fileand then click on from a scanner or camera.
    4. Select your printer, click OK, and then click Scan.

    Please let me know if any of these steps has resolved your problem, or if there is anything else I can do to help.

    I look forward to hear from you!

    My HP LaserJet 3055 All In One does not scan with Windows 7-64 bit. I can copy and print only. Thank you.

    Hello

    Is the printer connected to your PC by USB or network?

    Using the USB connection, you can scan using Windows Fax and Scan software built into your operating system.

    Scanning over a network connection unfortunately supported on Windows7 32 bit only, as you can find listed in the section about network scanning below:

  • Scanning with HP all-in-one printer with fax and scan Windows in Windows 8

    When you install a printer driver in Windows 8, you can scan from your computer without having to install any additional software to HP. This is particularly useful if you want to or not does not require the full functionality software or if your printer does not have a driver to scan for Windows 8.

    Windows Fax and Scan uses a Microsoft Service called WIA (Windows Image Acquisition) to capture an image from the scanner and allow you to save without the need for additional drivers.

    In addition, Windows Fax and Scan cannot scan to PDF.

  • printer scan works only with the new windows 7

    upgrade windows xp to windows 7 with the new HP Omni 220PC. Have a printer HP C309g-m. To scan from the printer to the computer xp, I had to use the HP Solution Center. The printer works very well with the new windows 7 program and new computer. I install wireless. No problems with it. Today when I went to scan a document with the HP Solution Center (I thought I had to use as before), this message came.

    "HP Solution Center cannot work because your device installation is not complete. Please connect the usb cable, or rerun the installation for a network installation cd. If it does not complete the installation, or you do not have the cd, access the HP help files by clicking on the start menu. "Everything I did. My installation CD said I had a version of the latest update on the installation CD, it was of no use. I went to the HP site and find a download for the drivers updated etc. I downloaded and installed. (although I don't know whether or not it was a duplicate of the drivers of devices on windows 7 for this.) I checked Add/Remove programs to make sure that the printer and the hp solultion Center have been added to the programs. they are listed. I can always scan with

    the hp Solution Center. Should I not this program to scan with this new pc? How can I scan from my printer now? I even tried to click scan on the printer, then scan to computer. the message I got was 'Try from scan of compurer. Refer to the documentation for more details ".  To be sure, I'm all mixed up now. All I want is for my scan printer to work with my new pc.  Everything works well except that scan thing, may help me understand what to do?:  Thank you

    all fixed. has crossed my computer to start then click HP click HP and open list. Went to my printer-clicked on my printer and clicked on the icon list to see if it worked correctly. This is a problem with the drivers and a box popped up with directions on where and how to download and install the devices for windows 7.
    Done this and tested it and everything works fine now. (Ihad already tried the HP site for support and downloaded and installed the fix suggested for the problem, but it did not work). in any case, its fixed and I hope that if someone has a problem, this information will help you.

    All in one, type printers (print, copy, scan) usually have a very specific set of instructions during the installation.  If not followed exactly the probability is that the scanner will not work.

  • Canon MP250 will not scan with Windows 7. 2,155,2 error code

    Canon MP250 will not scan with Windows 7. 2,155,2 error code

    This Canon MP250 printer/scanner never worked well with Windows 7 and 8 for example. Printing would just hang out and print only the laptop restarts. Scanning has been difficult but eventually worked. Now, the scanner does not at all.

    This is the message that comes with the 2,155,2 Error Code:

    Cannot communicate with the scanner. Cable may be disconnected or scanner may be turned off. Check the status. Scanner driver will be closed.

    They aren't joking about the closing of the scanner driver. I didn't know that the closure would be permanent.

    Also, I get the following message when I plug in the printer:

    USB device not recognized.

    It appears to malfunction. Windows accepts the USB port only when I unplug the power cord of the printer and wait half a minute before plugging new.

    Canon told me I need to download the driver software of its UK site and updated. Fact that several times, also uninstalled and reinstalled the original software and the driver supplied with the disc.

    Software will download, but not install. Guard me with the message: do you want this program to make changes to your computer?

    I tried to install the updated driver manually, because Windows does not find a driver for this printer.

    It drives me crazy, slowly. Can anyone help?

    Sorry for the repetitions of my question. I'm new here and I'll try to find the right forum.

    When I high scanning to E-mail windows 8 says I have my scanner with my email

    Chances are that your scanning software needs of a Full (Extended) MAPI e-mail client or for the scan to email function works correctly.


    According to a colleague of Windows Live MVP of the mine, app Mail of Win8 is not any kind of MAPI client [1] while Windows Live Mail is a Simple MAPI client, then need you (purchase and) install the MS Outlook or another full MAPI e-mail client.

    see the differences between CDO, Simple MAPI, and extended MAPI

  • Acrobat freezes when scanning with Epson scanner in windows 10

    I upgraded to Windows 10 and installed the latest drivers for my Epson Workforce 635, the scanner, fax printer. Update of the acrobat software. Now, I am unable to scan to PDF, Adobe Acrobat pro 7.  Adobe Acrobat starts up, I see the beginning of Epson and the Acrobat stops responding.

    I've scanned in PDF format directly with the options of scan Epson, Abby Fine-reader 9.0 and Quick Books. I was also able to scan with Adobe Acrobat using the WIA driver.

    No Adobe Acrobat error freezes.

    Any suggestions?

    Hi ntanti,.

    Acrobat 7 is not more supported by Adobe & is also not compatible with Windows 10, so it is not possible to predict how Acrobat 7 will include no compatible platform.

    Please use the application in the compatible environment so that its fully functional.

    However, still you can try some troubleshooting steps, from a few Troubleshooting scanner questionscan be used.

    Later Cougar (USB), after you install later (= old) Driver HP and on top of this apple driver (meticulously followed the advice of the post Printdoc 19/08/2009).
