How do I continue to use my HP Photosmart C3100 series All-in-One for scanning with the loss of Power PC support? The scanner interface has been deactivated. I do not want to add a perfectly good printer to the landfill because of Apple's short sited approach.
Info:
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.4), Converted to Lion for use of Cloud.
My MacBook Pro with Lion sees my printer as a Photosmart C6100 series [964C01]. Says to "Print Using" Photosmart C6100 series. When I click add it tries to download the drivers however says the software is currently unavailable. If I try to add it manually using IP it says the update server is unavailable. The console log shows:
PrintUITool: Property list invalid 'for format: 200 (property lists cannot contain objects of type 'CFType')

I have a HP Photosmart C4200 Series (C4280 to be exact). I have recently installed Snow Leopard (was using Leopard before) and this printer shows as supported in Snow Leopard.The problem I'm having, is that when I go to print a document from Microsoft Word (Office 2008) for Mac, all I get are blank pages. I printed something from Text Edit and it comes out fine, but files from Microsoft Word come out blank. Also, the "Test" pages come out fine as well.
I have been printing files for months and months now from Microsoft Word, but this is the first time I have tried in Snow Leopard.Does anyone know what is going on? I really need to print stuff since its for school.
My HP 3210 printer files use PowerPC software. As a result of installing Lion, they have been disabled. What should I do?

I can't scan to my computer with my HP Photosmart Plus B2010a, I get a "Failed to open a session on the device" message everytime. I'm using the most current driver for OS X Lion 10.7 off the HP website.

I had not scanned with my HP Photosmart since I bought a new iMac. The printer prints just fine. HP is no help saying that a software update comes with Lion. Obviously it does not work since my HP utility just puts up a complex error message consisting of a lot of computer code.

Yesterday I purchased my first ever iMac (OS X 10.9.4 - Mavericks I believe).
I'm trying to connect my HP Photosmart C7280 printer to work wirelessly but can't seem to work out how to do it.
When I connect via a USB the printer is recognised in Printers & Scanners, when I remove the USB the printer disappears.
My Mac and printer are both connected to the same wireless network (which we get through Virgin Media) - although my printer displays "no link" for IP address, don't know if this is relevant.
I have tried resetting print system, I have downloaded all Apple system updates, I have downloaded the latest driver I could find from the HP site (although this might have been unnecessary).
One factor that may be significant is that when I view the printer details (when connected via USB) I see the Mac's name, the printer model and the status but I don't see any reference to a Driver, which from what I've read, I feel I should be seeing.
I've also read reference to clicking "use" in a drop-down menu but from the details I see in the printer pane/dialogue box? I cannot see "use" anywhere or any other drop-down menus.
by the way, the printer always worked perfectly well wirelessly when connected to a Windows laptop on the same network,

I have just bit the bullet and migrated from my slow and clunky PC to a beautiful iMac
But I do have one question that is probably very simple. Previously with Windows I was able to play a series of TV shows in a row continously by selecting the files from the hard drive and selecting play in windows player - this way I could watch from my bed without having to get up at the end of every show to select the next
With Mac is there a way I can do this? As I have tried initially but it just opens all the files in different windows, rather than playing them in the order.

I recently bought a used 2009 iMac. I erased the disc and started fresh.If I do not shut the computer down every night, right around midnight, the computer plays 5 or 6 beeps (kind of a little song of beeps). It's always the same sound.I've poked around System Preferences and do not see any alarms set in there. I have also made sure that iCal does not have any alarms set up to play at midnight.
A little more info about the iMac. It pretty much has nothing on it. I added Microsoft Office and that is it. I bought it so I can move some of my music over and get myself under 25,000 songs on my main computer (so I can use iTunes Match). Other than Microsoft Office I have not added any other programs onto the computer.

I have an HP Photosmart C4280 printer that works fine when I want to print, but when I try to scan with Image Capture here's what happens: I can do an Overview scan, can see the document in the window, but the button to the right of overview does not show "Scan,"but a greyed out "Cancel."When I try to manually scan from the printer, an error message pops up in the printer window that says "USB not connected?" I'm pretty sure that the latest drivers are installed.

I'd like to view online content on my Samsung 7000 series LED. I don't mean streaming saved content, rather using my TV like a wireless monitor. My iMac is connected wirelessly, and the TV is wired to my router. Is it just a matter of getting something like a D-Link Boxee Box or Slingbox?

[uRL] Only 40GB and 80GB though but it's great to see that m-SATA is being adopted by such big company. Maybe m-SATA is the future? No need to waste space with casings and stuff when a stick like that does the job too. Those should fit in MBA but there is no place for the screws.

How can I send a series of photos as jpeg attachments so they are displayed as individual jpeg filenames, just as with "doc" files? Some recipients have trouble in isolating individual photos when my Mac only sends them as pictures.

I have 13" MacBookPro running 10.6.1 with 4 G Ram. My HP Photosmart C4500 All-In-One will print but will not scan. I have unplugged the USB cable and uninstalled and reinstalled the driver to no avail. I have tried to scan from both the unit itself and the scan software on my laptop. I get messages like "an unknown error occurred, or "can't find scanner". When you look in the 4500s window it appears to be scanning but nothing happens. Any ideas? It seems to have stumped HP help so far!
View 6 Replies View Relatedmy White (early 2008) MacBook 4.1 is struggling to run HP Photosmart Studio, an app that was bundled with the HP C4280 which came with my MacBook. (spec = 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM, 17GB remaining on the hard disc). With the app open and not being used for anything I am getting the following temperature readings:
CPU Core A: 71 (degrees C)
CPU Core B: 71
Main Heatsink 1: 58
Main Heatsink 2: 58
Enclosure Bottomside: 26
The cooling fans are running noisy (5500 rpm).
My house temperature is cool (think winter in the UK).
When I try to edit a scanned image (even a credit card sized image scanned as a JPEG at 200 dpi) the software often freezes for at least half an hour before I have to Force Quit.
I haven't had the MacBook misbehave before when running iMovie, iDVD and other intensive apps. I have downloaded the latest version of Photosmart from HP's website and the problem remains.
Also, I have a 1.66 GHz Core Duo, 2GB RAM Mac Mini that doesn't seem to have the same problem, although I haven't pushed it as hard I have the MacBook.
I have tried with a PhotoSmart C4480, and my dad's C4280. When I try to print something, a blank page comes out.
I have installed the correct drivers from the HP website. I am using Mac OS X 10.5.5. and a white MacBook.
I am a recently converted PC user to MAC. Now i'm trying to make my scanner to work with my new IMAC. I installed the HP software on my My mac.
I can print the test page. i can scan to copy. But i cannot scan to or from the computer, i get a message error. I need to scan documents to file in the computer.
I haven't been able to get my Macbook to print to my HP Photosmart C4480. The printer is usually hooked up to another computer, although this hasn't been a problem in the past.
(I haven't had any problems with it in the past.)
I've tried to print from several different programs, including a test page, but I keep encountering basically the same problem.:
It slowly prints the first centimeter or so of the page, and then stops. Once, it printed the first two lines of text, but kept re-printing the second line (on the same page.)
The image and the test page I tried to print had the same problem, except they didn't repeat any lines.
Does anyone know what my problem might be?
My HP Photosmart c309a will not work.I just had a new hard drive installed on my computer
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am running 10.4.11 (Tiger) on a MacBook. I started up my HP Photosmart all-in-one (printer/copier/scanner) c4780 today, and it does everything except the one thing I want it to do: SCAN. The software had been installed previously using the provided installation CD when I used it several months ago (it's been turned off since), and each part (including the scanner) worked perfectly. I am still using a USB cable, as I do not have access to the Wireless Network Key. The System Profile recognizes the device through the USB port, and I am able to print from any program on my computer as well as use the copy function on the machine itself.
So far, in no particular order (and likely multiple times), to troubleshoot, I've repaired disk permissions, uninstalled the software, reinstalled from the CD, reinstalled from the website, rebooted my computer, turned off/on the printer, disconnected/reconnected the USB cable, Googled about every combination of words I could think of for troubleshooting this issue, and tried every other program suggested by HP's website to access the scanner (Import on Preview and Image Capture, both of which tell me that there is no image capture device connected/found). When I try to access the scanner function through the HP Photosmart Studio software, it searches for a scanner but never turns up any results (in that it never reaches a conclusion). When I use the scan button on the physical printer, either nothing happens or I get an error message telling me there is a connection issue; regardless of the message, the lamp does not move (like it does when it copies).
To my recollection, the only software updates I've installed in the interim have been pre-mandated ones from Apple: three Java Script updates I'd been putting off for installing for almost two years. I recently downloaded and ran MacScan, purging my system of tracking applications in an attempt to coach another program that just started having problems to run. On the touch screen printer menu itself, there do not appear to be any setup options, so I can't tweak anything on the printer's end. At this point, I'm not sure if the fault lies with my computer or the printer.

I just bought an HP Photosmart 4700 series. For a while it was printing fine, then after shutting down the computer, it suddenly stopped printing from anything Office X software.
It responds on the print command, and then sends out a blank sheet of paper.
That said, it prints everything else - gmail or web pages -- just fine.
My Mac OS is version 10.6.3. My guess is I need to update Office to be compatible with the latest Mac OS. Of course that doesn't explain why it was working before.
I'd rather hear from someone more knowledgeable than I am.
