  1. Did you tried different drivers or do you have just one? Could be a hardware intermitent failure or a bug in TWAIN driver or TWAIN driver is corrupted. It is weird printer isn't responding from any of those different applications.

     

    You should also try the printer on a different PC. If it's USB try different USB ports too, specially if using a hub.

    I only have the drivers which I downloaded from the HP site.

  2. I need to run some more tests, but I almost convinced that it has got to do with PowerSave on the printer. TOday I had to scan and selected XnView as the program.....was not able to connect to the scanner. SO I tried Photoshop....same thing, Tried the built in windows fax/scan program and even Paperport...no connection to the scanner. Turned the scanner off and back on and everything works.

  3. Many thanks. While I am searching for a fix, I will also evaluate a replacement for Paperport. I think the combination will be XnView and FileCenter Professional. But I need to see about editing a PDF file. I don't want to bring in a 3rd app, but I am sure I can edit a PDF within Photoshop. After reading the comments, it seems I am not the only one that dislikes Paperport and the problem I am experiencing may trully be a Paperport issue.

  4. I moved away from HP a few years ago when I bought my Brother AIO and then I began putting more ink in the system for just sitting idle. The ink just did not last. Just out of warranty, the heads plugged up. Try getting assistance from Brother...worthless. I finally began filling the individual cartridges with ammonia instead of new ink. Ink for the unit cost more then the printer was worth. This HP I have now is fine...price was right, ink last a very long time but the damn ADF just won't cooperate. Wish I new another peice of software similar to Paperport to switch to and test.

  5. I just noticed in the SETUP of the printer/scanner that there is a PowerSave Mode. It is currently set to 1hr. I can change it to 4hrs but that really won't make a difference since I seldom use it to print but mostly scan. Today I had to scan and again the drive wheel did not slam down. Once I turned the printer on and off, it worked fine. There is always a possibility that the Paperport software is garbage....don't know why I ever got hooked on it???? :wacko:

  6. OK...been plagued with a problem for a while and not sure if it is me or a problem with the software or hardware or configuration setting.

     

    I am using an HP Officejet Pro L7555 with ADF. At times when putting in pages to scan in the ADF, the feeder does not engage. I don't know what controls the wheel to slam down on the pages to feed. I first noticed the problem with my 2003 server and I thought it was my tough luck since HP did not make all the drivers for 2003. But now on W7, I have the same problem. I searched the knowledge base on both HP and Nuance (Paperport 12.1) and can't find the answer. The only thing I can think of is that the scanner is in a dormant mode and when I fire up the scanning software it takes time for the connection to be made.

     

    Has anyone else experienced or heard of this problem?

  7. I am running a portable version and I do not have this folder: User/Username/Appdata/Local/Crash

     

    but have both of these folders. User/Username/Appdata/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Crash Reports and ............/bookmarkbackups

     

    In my case, the User/Username/Appdata/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Crash Reports nukes itself each time I shut down Firefox, but the BOOKMARKBACKUPS remains....not sure at what point Firefox begins to delete old Bookmarks

  8. Does your BIOS provide SATA IDE emulation??

    Yes, but I am looking for a PE that I just drop in without having to go into the BIOS. On several systems, I've created a Hidden-Recovery Portion that I load with grub and kick off various repair tools. I still have not yet found the perfect PE to this everything I want yet....but getting close.

  9. The way I look at it, if your network is NT6 based and your systems have the ability to use IP6, great....but if the router does not understand it, why use it?

     

    redhawk....you and me don't need IP6 on our home networks. The reason for IPv6 is that they were running out of IPv4 addresses....and that was back in the 90's when I was taking college classes. I don't think they ran out yet, but I haven't looked into it.
