My husband is having trouble getting his computer to see his scanner. The scanner is an HP Officejet 6500 all-in-one, and his computer is an HP desktop running Windows 7. The Officejet is older than the computer by probably a year or so. He can print to the unit, but it will not scan.
I can use the unit to scan from my MacAir, so the scanning function does work. As far as I know, the unit does everything it's supposed to, except scan with my husband's computer.
Mr. Penn has tried uninstalling and (re)installing drivers. It did scan successfully once today, but then not since. He suspects the problem may be two sets of drivers -- a default one installed by Windows, versus the specific one -- that both point to the unit. He also can't disable the one printer.
I'd be happy to take this to PMs or email.
