Updated to Snow Leopard, can not scan printer, by computer.

When I had Mac OS Leopard (10.5.8), I had no problem to scan from my HP 310a wireless all-in-one printer, I just press scan on my printer and it's done.  Since I've upgraded to Snow Leopard (10.6.7), I can do it no longer.  I get a message on my printer saying should I scan my computer, which means that I have to click on the shortcut of scanning HP in my iMac that came with the HP software.  How can I change it so I can scan my printer again?

You probably can't.  This feature does not work most of the time with Snow Leopard, sorry.

  • Photosmart HP 5520. Can not scan to my computer

    Photosmart HP 5520. I can print from my computer very well, but cannot scan from the printer TO my computer. Message is "connection error". This happens sometimes, but usually I can fix in any turn off, unplug and start again. Today, nothing works. This is getting tiresome. Printing works fine.  BTW, I do not control the router & it can just turn on and off. I'm not technologically savvy; I just want the thing to work.

    Hello

    The scan of the computer is disabled by default (I don't know why guys/girls software desinged like that). On my machine, driver for Windows 8 is much better (even same exe file). Turn it on by following the steps below (Please note: for Windows machines)

    Double-click the icon of the printer on the desktop,

    Click on manage the Scan of the computer.

    Click Activate

    You can check the last four too.

    Kind regards.

  • All-in-one HP Photosmart C6280 not connected to the internet, and can not scan to computer

    My HP Photosmart C6280 all-in-one not connected to the internet, and can not scan to the computer.  I got it for a few years and must plugged into my Macbook to print, but now I want to use it to scan photos directly to my computer.  Can someone help me to do this?  Much appreciated!  (Not sure where are my original softward records!)

    Oh, OK, well this isn't probably the problem, but for good measure, you should get the latest version of the software for your printer from the "support & drivers" link at the top of this page.

    In the meantime, we will reset the printing system:

    -Go to System Preferences > Print & Fax
    -Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - This will remove ALL your printers!
    -Select the sign more to add a printer. Top of the window, Select the default tab . Search for the printer, select it, and wait until the button 'Add' becomes available. Until it clicks.

    Hi there Bulldogs3, welcome to the forums!

    I saw that you encounter a problem when you try to add your Scanjet G4010 to your Mac up-to-date 10.9.2. If you have not yet downloaded the installation for the Scanjet, please do it here: HP Scanjet ICA software for Mac OS X 10.6, 10.7, 10.8 or 10.9.

    If that is not always do the trick, follow these 2 steps and add the printer and back scanjet.

    Have no problem when you print a document from the computer. Can not scan from printer to computer. I don't know that I've scanned because I went from windows 7 to 10. Printer not repeat myself found computer.

    Hi, Rolland,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft community. I might help you.

    To better understand the issue, I would need more information on your side.

    1. What is the brand and model of the scanner?

    2. Do you get any error messages? If Yes, what is the full error message?

    This problem might have occurred because of these reasons:

    1. Corrupted driver.

    2. Hardware problem.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you to run hardware store and check if it helps.

    (a) press the Windows keyboard.

    (b) Troubleshooting type in the search box and press enter.
    (c) click on material and audio.

    (d) click on hardware and devices and follow the on-screen instructions.

    Method 2:
    If the problem persists, I suggest you to download and install the latest scanner driver\software on the manufacturer's Web site.

    Hope this information helps. Reply to the post with an up-to-date report of the issue so that we can help you more.

  • Leopard MacBook pro late 2008 - updated to update to snow leopard

    I have a macbook pro late 2008 with leopard on updated to snow leopard, which is the best upgrade, that I can do without problems?

    I upgraded to 8 GB memory and 500 GB MMX 200 ssd.  tTe upgrade was necessary because I installed el capitan and he absolutely killed my mac, so I got the diagnostics to find my drive was not hard.

    I'll reinstall leopard and use my snow leopard updated, but to what extent until I can go without problems over?

    In theory, it must be able to handle El Capitan. You can't really judge El Capitan performance enough if you ran it on a bad HARD drive.

    Your only real options stay with Snow Leopard, goes to the mountain, which is still fairly recent, Lion or El Capitan.  I think most people would say that Lion (10.7) alone is not worthwhile.  Mavericks and Yosemite are no longer available unless you already have a copy.  Mountain Lion is no longer receiver update but is not a fall to the same extent (yet) by the developers of software under Snow Leopard.  Some claim that it is the operating system more acceptable from 10.6.  You can always buy a download code for it.

  • can not scan using my Mac... frustrated!

    I have HP Photosmart C7180 all-in-one printing. Everything works but the scanner. I got an error message stating: "Sorry, an unknown error has occurred" before I'm gone to the site and downloaded the update to Snow Leopard 10.6.5. After downloading, I get an error message stating: "sorry, scanner could not be initialized (scanner not found). '. I have lost my installation CD to do a complete reinstall. What should I do?

    If you are using Snow Leopard and you have the HP software before Snow Leopard (either from a CD that is not marked as compatible with 10.6 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and had the HP software on your Mac before you upgraded), you must 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
    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 150: Can not scan wireless

    I have a HP all-in-ONE Officejet 150 and that you are unable to scan wireless.  Right now, I can't even the bluetooth icon to turn blue, although it said that the radio is on.  I took my old printer because of such problems.  I handed to factory, combined with my Sony computer, but it does not recognize my computer.  Suggestions?  I can use a cable and get it to the scan, but that defeats the purpose of bluetooth technology.

    Hi @Dragonbebe,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you can not scan wireless with your mobile printer HP Officejet 150. I'm happy to discuss this issue for you!

    This printer can only scan with the printer cable USB is plugged. As the wireless Bluetooth connection is strictly to be printed. Please see the user's Guide, for more information your printer.
