Basic troubleshooting tips
Simple issues such as smudges on the scanning strips or loose cables can cause your scanner to
produce fuzzy scans, operate in an unexpected manner, or fail to operate. Always check the following
items when you encounter scanning problems.
● If scans are fuzzy, check to see if the scanning strips inside the document feeder are dirty or
smudged. If so, clean the scanning strips.
If you are scanning a document that will be analyzed using Optical Character Recognition (OCR),
make sure that the original document is clear enough to be analyzed.
● Make sure that the USB and power cables are firmly seated in their respective connectors on the
back of the scanner, and that the power cord is plugged into a working electrical outlet or surge
protector.
● Make sure the scanner has not automatically powered off. If it has, press the Power ( ) button to
turn on the scanner.
TIP: You can change the auto-off setting on the Settings tab of the HP Scanner Tools Utility.
● Ensure that the scanner is receiving power.
Check that the green LED on the power supply case is on.
If the green LED is not on, ensure that power is available to the power outlet or surge
protector that the power supply is plugged into.
If power is available to the power outlet or surge protector but the green LED is still not on,
the power supply might be defective. Contact www.hp.com/support for assistance.
