setting do not scan in color?

I can't find preference settings on my OfficeJet J6480 which will allow me to scan a document in black & white.   I scanned a 11 page document and the PDF (color) resulting is 24 MB.   I wish that the scan to NOT be in color, if the file will be not so great.

If you run the scan from the HP Solution Center, you should be able to scan to a black and white PDF file.

In the HP Solution Center, select "scan a Document. A window should appear. Under the heading "what you scan?', select 'Document '. Below, select "Black & White". In the "file Type:" pull down, select PDF.

  • Photosmart 7520: Printer will not scan in color

    My printer has until recently been able to produce an analysis of color using the supplied document and the printer control panel. Now, he refuses to do so even if I did not consciously change all parameters. I can get a scan color by placing a single document in the printer and then goes via system preferences/printers and scanners and selecting the scanner, and then set the print area and choose the resolution, but it is a rather laborious and tedious route.

    I downloaded the most up to date nd drivers software on the HP site, but this has not solved the problem. Interestingly, the software download is labeled OS Mavericks, so it made me wonder whther that perhaps this is related to my recent update to Yosemite?

  • Printer won't scan in color?

    My personal printer is a HP Officejet 6500 a e710n-z

    I have for a few years now and it was working perfectly so far

    But tonight, when I tried to scan a picture, any program, I used or settings I changed, the image would not scan in color.

    On the setting of the color, I got an image in grayscale.  On the determination of levels of grey, I had a mess Bacon, black and white.

    I have tried everything I can think to solve this problem, including: combing through the support forums, run the diagnostics on the machine and manually restart the printer.  Nothing works.

    If anyone knows how to solve this problem, please please tell me what I need to do so that the Analyzer produces color once again.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8620: Scanning in color and put the scanned on my computer, is it possible?

    I want to be able to scan to my computer and in color. There is however no setting I can find on the printer, and HP apps on my computer Mac, there is also no way to set all scan settings, such as color scan instead of grayscale. The web interface of the printer does not provide such a definition either. There are settings to specify where scanned files is put in the analysis to the computer, but how digitization is made, what resolution and color / gray scale is not defined anywhere.

    This should be a trivial thing to do, but I didn't spend hours trying to find such a context and have now given upp!

    All I want to do is be able to scan a document in color and put it in a folder on my computer in PDF searchabe. All this criteria seems to be impossible to do. There are no parameters anywhere for all this really bugs me. This makes this more or less impossible to use printer/scanner.

  • HP LaserJet Color MFP M175nw 100 prints, but not scan

    This problem has just appeared out of nowhere the LaserJet printer prints (so it is connected), but when I run the HP basic digitization program, I get the error message that the scanner is not connected.  I rebooted and restarted the printer. Also, I downloaded and ran printing HP and doctor Scan. It detects the printer and the scanner as "installed", but when I ask him to communicate with the scanner, it is said that the "selected product is not conencted".  When I try printer (same ip address), it detects it and gives me the possibility of "Difficulty Printing" or "problem analysis". On the "difficulty of analysis", it says "establishing connection with Scanner", but loops back to the beginning of the process, without success.  Now, it will blow your mind, if I screen Win-8 Metro and run the HP and Capture digitization program, the scan works perfectly (Although this scan utility is more limited than the regular version of HP-Scan). So, here I am trying to solve a communication connection problem, when none really exists.  Has anyone ever seen this situation? Anyone got the answers?

    I fought this problem since I bought the color printer. I understand that the printer is discontinued. I love it, I have two, they work great, except for this problem.

    Now my conclusions and solution.

    After installing the software, it works fine. After a while it doesn't. Some software installed HP must be retired by anti-virus programs or gets too writes because he went, so that the scanner doesn't scan. I have yet to find what is happening to the scan software, but it disappears.

    My solution...  I remove all the software printer HP 100, including port data in the configuration of the printer. If you have installed several times, you will have a list of information about the printer port, remove it.

    I use their basic installation software. Usually always scan not scan. You must install it AGAIN, during the first installation. It works every time, until it disappears again.

    HP technical support has no idea on this issue. I spent more than seven hours talking to probably all the tech they have without success. Finally it me they would make me a 'deal' on a printer company.

    I would like to know if you find that zapped installs it HP. As far as I know is it disappears and the scanner no longer works.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 more print but not scan

    I have an Officejet Pro 8600 and I use Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) and it print and copy but will not scan. I had a hell of a time trying to get this thing to scan - I even spent an hour and a half with HP technical support and they could not fix it and finally gave up and call me Micro$ oft said that it must be a windows problem (Windows is up to date, incidentally).

    I tried to open the scanner software and nothing happens when I click the icon - the loading icon flashes for a second, then only the mouse pointer. Nothing happens if I try to boot from all programs. Nothing happens if I try to scan to the computer of the other printer told me the failure of sweeping and that there could be reasons of severalpossible (unrelated, software used, etc.).

    I have installed and uninstalled. A couple of times he was having trouble with the installation, but finally got it connected. Once it would not uninstall in Control Panel until I did it directly from the HP folder. I connected it by USB and wireless. I installed the version of bloatware. I cleaned that out and I tried the only version of drivers. The HP support person had me go and removed a bunch of stuff in the registry. I tried to run as an administrator. Nothing works. I even tried to scan using Windows Fax and scan. I disabled Kaspersky and made sure that my firewall is turned off.

    I am at my wits end with this and certainly regret my purchase at the moment. Help!

    Hello, it happens to the analysis of Windows (WIA) and generates an error:

    "The Windows Imaging service does not work... If the problem persists, you will not be able to scan using the applications that use this service, such as Microsoft Paint. Scanning software HP could still work. »

    It asked me to restart, and then re-run the diagnostic tests, but I got the same result.

    Then, I jumped to HP Scanner Twain and got another error:

    "The Twain component is not working properly because the product is used by another process. Save your work and close all applications. Turn the product off, turn it on again, and then click on restart and repeat the test. »

    He told me then the problem persists to uninstall the software, then reinstall the Full Feature software (I did, but available).

    * EDIT

    Problem solved!  After you had me run the diagnostic tool I googled the WIA problem and found that many other people had the same problem. A person has a response from Micro$ oft saying that it was a Windows 7 issue and how to fix it - this is the text I found:

    To start the WIA service, you need start all services of dependence. To start the dependency services, please follow the steps mentioned below:

    -> > click on start-> type "services.msc" and press ENTER, once you get up the services window, please do the rest steps.

    -> > first check and write down all the dependency services: -

    -> > right WIA-> properties-> tab dependence, check the services of name listed there.

    It must contain the following services:

    * RPC remote Procedure Call

    -> > DCOM Server process Launcher

    -> > RPC end point mapper

    * Detection material core

    Make sure that all of the above services are started in the services list.

    Last time, we started the Detection hardware Kernel, which solves our problem.

    (Andy, it's important.  Choose "Detection hardware Kernel ' and start this service which should start your 'Windows Imaging Acquisition '.  If it does not then select WIA and change the departure to "automatic".  This fixed my problems) after all dependency services start, please try to start, WIA service to solve the problem of .                                                                                                                                                                                       

    (For those who are doubtful with computers, like me, when you click on the start icon, you can type services.msc in the box of research programs or click on run and type it in there). Once inside the list of services, you can look at the dependencies by right-clicking on the Windows Image acquisition service and selecting Properties. Take note of these dependencies. Then back to the main list and watch to see if these dependencies are started. My Shell Hardware Detection says disabled, so I right click on it; However, starting selection is grayed out and I couldn't select it from the drop-down list box, so Startup type I selected Automatic, apply, close the Services window and then started my Scan software and presto, it worked.

    Thanks for setting me on the right track!
