HP Officejet 6110 All In One - Scanning?

JKW,

I have a pleasant surprise for you. We are currently wrapping up testing on scan drivers for a whole bunch of addition devices, including yours. While that doesn't help today, with any luck you should have Scanning back by the end of the month (assuming that testing doesn't expose any major problems).

Just trying to help.

JKW,

Short term that should work. Longer term Scan drivers for the Officejet 6110 have passed testing, so its just a matter of getting them distributed. What I would do if I were you is use what you have working until you see the next update come out. At that point, delete all the HP software first, and then install the update. That should give you Print & Fax capabilities on your Officejet 6110.

In the meantime, remember you may have functionality missing under 64-bit apps for printing. The work around is to set Preview to always launch in 32-bit mode, then print through Preview and make your adjustments there.

Just trying to help.

JKW,

You set Preview to launch in 32 bit mode by selecting Get Info from the finder and checking the box next to the Open in 32-bit mode. As for the update it should be early next month.

Just trying to help.

Have you tried using Image Capture to scan? For most HP AIO's on Snow Leopard that is the application we use to scan. To start it, Command Spacebard, type +Image Capture+ the hit return to start the software. It should locate your 6110 and then you can begin scanning. If you do a lot of scanning just put Image Capture in your Dock for quick launching.

Hi All,

I'm in the same boat here. Image capture does not recognize any scanner or printer. I installed the HP software updates. Is there anything else to do?

Thomas

OK, here is what you should do.

1. Go to System Preferences Printer & Fax and highlight your 6110 and click the - sign to delete it.
2. Restart the computer.
3. Go to http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907 and download the most up-to-date drivers then install them.
4. Go to System Preferences again and this time click teh + sign and locate your 6110 to add it.
5. Try Image Capture again.

Regards,

Roger

Thanks Roger,

I did as you instructed. It added fax functionality but it did not add scan functionality.

Thomas

Hmmm. How is your 6110 connected to your Mac?

Not working for me either and I am connected through USB and it shows up in System Profiler and Image Capture doesn't show it. I have installed the HP updates that showed up for updating my system I am on 10.6.2 and restarted my computer and nothing seems to work.

Skillet,

OK, yours shouldn't be that tough. Do this.

1. Open System Preferences, Print & Fax and highlight the 6110 on the left and then click the - key to remove it.
2. Down load or re-down load the most up to date drivers from HP:

http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/firmware_hardware/hpprinterdriversfo rmacosxv106.html

then install them.

3. Turn off the 6110 and disconnect it from the Mac. Then re-connect it and
4. Open System Preferences, Print & Fax and click the + sign and add the 6110.
5. Restart the computer once it fully boots it should print OK.
