• HP c7280 not scan from Windows fax and analysis

  Why my scanner not scan from this windows fax and scan of program?  I have win 7-64 bit os, hp printer connected by usb. Everything works, but scan. I had downloaded originally Hp update for win 7 but I have a new hard drive and I really didn't want to upgrade their software at random here. I did 5 scans but it is only one per day. Then I get the message that he was able to complete the scan, I got the message that another program may be using the scanner,
  Is this a driver problem, it does not seems to me. It sounds more like a problem of windows 7 that the analysis files get mixed or not accessible, or they cannot be found.
  for the hp imaging device you need only 4 files:
  c:\Windows\System 32\drivers\ksthunk.sys
  c:\Windows\System 32\drivers\usbscan.sys
  c:\Windows\System 32\drivers\hpotiop1.dll
  c:\Windows\System 32\drivers\hpowiav1.dll
  I know there is a current specific problem and it is not with all these printers that have filled the forums. Is there anyway someone who knows the files could see what is happening?
  If you try to scan is supposed to appear in the process and services? The analysis of the test says it's although the printer is enabled. I had downloaded installed and software uninstalledHp from their site at least 12 times. But I note on installation sometimes that the hp installation page is different as if all the options are not listed as the file reading, or install the imaging device. Sometimes it would be just a Setup button. The software essentials and solutions had avaiilble different buttons each time. I'm in my intelligence
  end, try to understand this. If someone would like to just say that this will not work on win 7 so I quit.

• Windows Fax and Scan auto - file naming?

  On my work XP machine, I use Windows scanner and Camera Wizard to scan files

  I type a prefix of file name in ('Myscan") and it automatically names / saves the documents that I scan, Myscan1, Myscan2, etc, etc.
  IM now using Windows 7 "Windows Fax and Scan."
  Can see any automatic method of naming of files
  Any ideas?
  Or can someone point me to a download "Windows scanner and Camera Wizard" (ish 2003)

  Installation Wizard is not really what I'm after

  I should have said "Microsoft" Scanner and camera Assistant, which is actually an application
  Old Windows XP application
  Like I said - once you add a prefix of the file name "MyScans", chuck that renames a bucket of documents in the scanner and it scans automatically-
  "MyScans1" "MyScans2" "MyScans3"...  'MyScans635277 '.
  Little research on Google, I noticed a lot of people appreciated/rate this feature and someone suggested looking for 'wiaacmgr.exe"thinking that it was just a XP product, I thought it was lost forever
  Held my nose and typed in the search for Windows 7, and low and behold, its always included!
  In the C:\Windows\System32 folder
  Did not have a scanner at home to run it, I just get "Scanner not connected", but I can't wait to get into the Office to see if it works
  so anyone looking for the old "Microsoft scanner and Camera Wizard" - search your system for "wiaacmgr.exe.

• How to MOVE the default location of Windows Fax and Scan?

  We have recently added a second server (Windows Server 2008) to a domain AD., because the new server has more resources, we moved all the DOCUMENTS folder to users from the server (Server 2003) network share to address liked to a share on the new Server 2008 machine. After the move, all Windows 7 machines runs the utility of fax and scan can not find MANY DOCUMENTS folder as the utility constantly points to the old server (which took the OLD action of document already deleted).

  I changed the location of DOCUMENTS in Windows 7 for Server 2008 sharing, but Fax and Scan keeps searching for the old stock 2003 server and I cannot find where to redirect them. Can I turn off Windows fax and analysis services to the title of printing and scanning and then restore? That will allow me to redirect to the correct folder? I have tried even to search the registry for references to the old stock but still can't seem to locate the old server to the MANY DOCUMENTS reference.

  Can anyone help?

  Russ Foszcz

  I solved this problem with a synlink

  First to find the actual location of Library/Documents/scanned documents, make this scanned Documents to right click and click 'open file location '.

  In my case he opened it (that I copied from the address bar):

  Documents C:\Users\Tim\Documents\Scanned

  What should I do now is to save the files in this folder, and then delete the "Documents" folder completely

  Then click the windows key and type in run or search (or click the Windows key + R) and type 'cmd' and press enter

  A black console should appear

  In it, you must enter this command, I wanted that my scans to record in X:\Scans

  MKLINK /j "C:\Users\Tim\Documents\Scanned Documents" X:\Scans

  then press enter

  This creates a folder (symlink, not a shortcut), who acts as a normal file, but is actually located in a different place, so when the scan software saves files in its default location will be actually stored in X:\Scans

• How to use Windows Fax and Scan if a modem has not been built in my PC?

  Original title: fax and scan Windows

  Why bother to preload a tower PC with windows fax and analyze if the PC has a modem and in fact does not even a wireless receiver.  When an ordinary user like me go buy the adapter wireless and go buy the fax modem, it's like going to a car dealer and make them ask ' you want this car with tires and wheels, or even that it is? »

  
  So when you go to Best Buy and Staples to find a fax modem for this PC HP who did not, and what they have is a Zoom modem that works work, WHAT ARE SUPPOSES to DO THEN?

  It is hardware problem, not an operating system. Windows does its part by providing the software needed to complete the job.

• Windows Fax and Scan - what the appropriate use for the concurrent users to save to the network program?

  I'll try to keep this simple - as I already asked this on other forums without the answer. My environment - Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 32-bit client machines. A computer needs to scan patient documents to a network shared by a group of users folder. There will be many people who use this computer even through all day (several shifts - environment 24 hours/7 days).  This is why I need multiple profiles from windows to all save the scan to the SAME network location.

  Currently I am trying to achieve with Windows Fax and Scan and using the ' Scan 'option under 'tools' routing. "  There is a check box (once in this option) for "network location".  I am using this option, but its does not work and that's the whole problem. Its supposed to AUTOMATICALLY record each scan to the specified network location, but it does no such thing. The scan is not registered at all in fact it is just in the interface user of Windows Fax and Scan... double you click it, and then it shows you the image.

  Some information note for helping people answer this question (and any help is appreciated):

  (1) * YES * the network folder, I am trying to record is a valid network folder and * IS * accessible via my network of different devices

  (2) * YES * the user of this journal on the computer with the scanner * ALL * read/write to have rights to this location of the network folder

  (3) * file YES and printing sharing is already active on clients

  If you please if someone either knows how to solve this problem, or at this stage if you can even suggest a different (cheaper the better) application that will scan to a network location please let me know.

  One might think to a disabled feature labeled as "scan routing" and then a field for "network location", it would be simple as plugging in the network folder and checking a box - apparently it isn't.

  Thank you.

• Windows 7: Windows Fax and Scan - can't get it to automatic backup to a network

  We use Windows Fax and Scan (Version 6.1 Build 7601: Service Pack 1)-this is the version included with our client for 32-bit Windows 7 Enterprise OS

  I just installed a scanner in a sleep laboratory, scanner works perfectly. There are several sleep technicians that will connect to a computer with the scanner (so short of several user profiles) and patient scan RXs.  Problem is that sleep manager wants the scans to record automatically in a central location for any technology connects in their analyses will record in the same place as everyone else.

  The key is the AUTOMATIC backup.

  This is so the news of background - at the heart of the question... it seems a feature that offers Windows Fax and Scan does not work.

  If you go in fax and scan, there is an option in the tools of-> Scan routing.  If you read on the functionality of its supposed to save AUTOMATICALLY in the network shown, its not to do so.

  So I check the box 'Save in the network folder' (don't know the exact wording)

  (I use xxx because I don't want to publicly share real location) \\xxx\xxxxx\xxxxx\Neuromuscular.

  This is 100% valid and share name of work - used for years many people save to it... Windows Fax and Scan says "sharing network not valid."

  If someone said just use \\server\share

  OK I create a folder on my computer, we'll call it Computer1 and name sharefolder. I share and give "everyone" access read/write... sharing is \\Computer1\Sharefolder.

  Plug in Windows Fax and Scan - it don't be complaint that it is a bad sharing more. So I think that a lot!

  I scan a test page - this isn't automatic registration to \\computer1\sharefolder.  I can come here, but that defeats the whole point of the analysis of routing.

  Sleep lab will be scanning hundreds of slips of Rx by day, management won't allow lost time by manual movement of the images to the save location.

  Any help is greatly appreciated. Got to be honest I'm a little irritated right now because I think its Microsoft as announced a feature in one of their applications is not working.

  Thank you

• Problem with Windows Fax and Scan.

  I have a Canon MG5420 and Win7 64-bit.  All of a sudden, the Office does not see the scanner.  The print function continues to operate correctly.  Problem occurs regardless of USB or WiFi connection.  The only change in my system is a migration towards Office365.  Other than that, no change. I tried all the basics: refreshed drivers, uninstalled the printer and re-installed.  Any thoughts on what could be the cause?  I get the message error is "No. scanners were detected.  The utility Scan Canon IJ can see the scanner, but I prefer to use the Windows fax and scan.  Any ideas?

  Unfortunately his is possible because there are different drivers and stacks of driver for the printer and the component the same multifunction device installed on the client computer scanner. In a case when the right printer driver is installed and available from the scanner driver may be missing or may be incompatible with Windows Fax and Scan requires the parser must be WIA 2.0 compatible, a TWAIN compatible scanner only for example will not work with this app).

• Windows Fax and Scan cannot detect Photosmart C4580 all-in-1 scanner connected to the wireless network

  I have no problem printing or scanning when I connect my C4500 to PC via USB.  When connected via my home wireless router I can print OK but can not scan - it's the same for other users and computers.  Windows Fax and Scan gives me the message 'no scanner found. '  I need to work so that all users on my netwrok home can share the scanner.  I use Windows 7 64-bit.

  Thanks Travis_C (HP).  I actually found the solution just before receiving your answer!  I discovered that, although the Solution Center says it would uninstall the existing files before allowing me to reinstall with the latest version downloaded, it didn't remove all the files.  I only discovered this because the new facility has not taken me through the whole fresh installation procedure, he simply asked me what additional features I wanted to install and asked me if I wanted a local printer or network etc.

  I thought that there must be a mistake or problem with whatever existing files were left and the new facility would not correct it.  So I used the control panel to uninstall the existing files, and I made sure that everything was gone.  I then used the last download to reinstall, this time through the new correct installation procedure, and everything now works perfectly.

  With this method I always had a problem on another PC, giving me the same problem I had before.  I realized that this was due to a USB dongle connected to the PC to a wireless keyboard that seems to affect the installation.  When I removed the dongle installation worked again perfectly, and I now have full printing and scanning ability on all PCs.

  I think the installer for this printer wireless (and perhaps others?) should be updated to solve the problem, and also the center of Solution must be fixed to ensure that if you uninstall the software it should not leave anything.

• Windows Fax and Scan "Sender Name" empty (Windows Server 2008 Standard)

  Hi all

  I am using Windows Server 2008 Standard (32-bit) with a RocketModem III card.  I have the latest drivers for the RocketModem.

  Using Windows Fax and Scan, I can send and receive faxes fine.  The only problem is when I see the fax, the name of the sender is blank.  I am trying to display the telephone number that someone sends me the fax to.

  I had thought it might also be under CSID, but everything I have complete options because it puts there.  I guess that means I want the CSID show for all those who sent faxes to me.

  It might be worth noting that I have active CallerID and you have a real fax machine that shows the incoming number very well.

  Does anyone have an idea where I could go wrong here?  Thanks in advance for the help!

  This issue is beyond the scope of this site and must be placed on Technet or MSDN
