Topic: HP all in one Printers/Scanners

[Lona]

If anybody is having problems with an HP 750 all-in-one which continually receives message "Scanner not found" should connect printer to it's own power supply directly into wall.  I have been having problems for ages which I could not resolve but after removing it from multi point and giving it it's own power supply I have not had any more problems.  HP are receiving a lot of flack regarding this issue

What a strange solution to your problem Lona  

At least it is working now I suppose

By multipoint do you just mean one of those trailing 4 or 6 way sockets Lona or is it some weird and wonderful HP thing

The good news is Scanner stayed connected for 1 day.  The bad news is, it's gone again

PLEASE, PLEASE, is there anybody got an hp psc 750 that cannot load scanner. . I am at my wits end and don't know what else to try. :'(

I really think that you need to try it on another PC Lona to see if its faulty or not

I'm beginning to think your right, Sandra. There are lots of others who have my problem and I can only think it is a design fault.

Just thought I would give you an update on my Scanner problems.  I found a message on HP forums that if I went into the Bios and changed Bi-directional to ECC or EPP it would solve the problem. Something to do with twain not connecting with the scanner.  I really didn't know what I was doing but thought, what the hell, and it worked. My scanner and printer is now fully operational.

PS until the next time

 Lona!  These things always work out in the end!
