Windows 10: Scan to computer.

I have an HP LaserJet 6600 all in one printer, scan, copy and fax. I can send a file from the computer to the printer OK. But the printer is not scanning to the computer nor can I print a copy of a document from the printer. The printer is wireless, but I have switched to a cable connection. The PC is a Lenovo running on Windows 10. I do not use the copy or scanning features on the printer much. I did use it about 2-3 months ago. These issue I am having now suddenly show up out of nowhere.

unable to scan to computer

My HP Envy 4524 printer set up using HP website and prints fine using wireless connection. However, when attempting a scan printer window message saying no computer found. I have read various suggestions indicating web scan may need to be enabled on
my laptop, but the steps suggested could not be followed as I think they may refer to an earlier version of windows. Can anyone suggest how I might get my scan to computer enabled using windows 10?

 

scanned documents

Hello,

By default, scans are saved in a Scans folder inside the Pictures. Here are the steps on how to get there:

• Press Windows and type pictures
• Click Pictures and double-click the Scans folder.

Furthermore, we suggest that you repair your Word application by following the steps on this

Apologies for the late response and thank you for the details.

It is possible that it is caused by a
corrupted
or
missing system files. We suggest that you try these
methods of troubleshooting
and check if there's any changes:

Method 1:
Run SFC Scan.  

To run an
SFC scan, follow these steps:  

• 
  Run
  Command Prompt as Administrator.  
  
• 
  Type
  sfc /scannow
  and hit
  Enter.   
  

Method 2:
Run DISM Tool.  

After running the
SFC scan
and the issue still persist, run the
DISM
to check the system health and to try restoring or fix any corrupted files. To run the
DISM tool, follow these steps:  

•

Note:
Reset the computer back to

from the same article.

If the issue persists, try to
unplug
the cable connecting to your computer from the printer/scanner and turn if off. After a few seconds, plug it back again and check if your computer will download and install the
drivers again. It is also possible that the driver for your printer was uninstalled and doing these simple troubleshooting may help you out.

Let us know how it goes.
