Set up Scan to Network Folder

Introduction
Before you begin
• Step one: Access the HP Embedded Web Server
• Step two: Set up Scan to Network Folder

Introduction

This document explains how to enable and configure the Scan to Network Folder function. The printer has a feature that enables it to scan a document and save it to a network folder. To use this scan feature, the printer must be connected to a network; however, the feature is not available until it has been configured. There are two methods for configuring Scan to Network Folder, the Save to Network Folder Setup Wizard for basic setup and Save to Network Folder Setup for advanced setup.

Before you begin

NOTE: To set up the Scan to Network Folder feature, the printer must have an active network connection.
Administrators need the following items before beginning the configuration process.
• Administrative access to the printer
The fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) (e.g., \servername.us.companyname.net\scans) of the destination folder OR the IP address of the server (e.g., \16.88.20.20\scans).
NOTE: The use of the term "server" in this context refers to the computer where the shared folder resides.

Step one: Access the HP Embedded Web Server

  1. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, touch the Information icon, and then touch the Network icon to display the IP address or host name.
  2. Open a web browser, and in the address line, type the IP address or host name exactly as it displays on the

Step two: Set up Scan to Network Folder

Method one: Use the Scan to Network Folder Wizard

This option opens the setup wizard that is in the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS) for the printer. The setup wizard includes the options for basic configuration.

  1. Using the EWS top navigation tabs, click Scan/Digital Send tab.
  2. In the left-navigation pane, click Email and Scan to Network Folder Quick Setup Wizards.
  3. Click the Save to Network Folder Quick Set Wizard link.

NOTE: Quick Sets are short-cut jobs that can be accessed on the printer Home screen or within the Quick

a. In the UNC Folder Path field, type a folder path where the scan will go.

The folder path can either be the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) (e.g., servername.us.companyname.net scans) or the IP address of the server (e.g., 16.88.20.20 scans ). Be sure that the folder path (e.g., scans ) follows the FQDN or IP address.

NOTE: The FQDN can be more reliable than the IP address. If the server gets its IP address via DHCP, the IP address can change. However, the connection with an IP address might be faster because the printer does not need to use DNS to find the destination server.

b. From the Authentication Settings drop-down, select one of the following options:

• Use credentials of user to connect after Sign In at the control panel

• Always use these credentials

NOTE: If Always use these credentials is selected, a user name and password must be entered in the corresponding fields, and the printer's access to the folder must be verified by clicking Verify Access.

c. In the Windows Domain field, type the Windows domain.

TIP: To find the Windows domain in Windows 7, click Start, click Control Panel, and then click System.

To find the Windows domain in Windows 8, click Search, enter System in the search box, and then click System.

The domain is listed under Computer name, domain, and workgroup settings.

d. Click Next.

  1. On the Configure File Scan Settings dialog, set the default scanning preferences for the Quick Set, and then click Next.

  2. Review the Summary dialog, and then click Finish.

Method two: Use Scan to Network Folder Setup

NOTE: The Scan to Network Folder feature can be minimally configured without creating a quick set. However, without the quick set, users must enter the destination folder information at the control panel for each scan job. A quick set is required to include Scan to Network Folder metadata.

Complete all of the settings in the Quick Set Setup to fully configure the Scan to Network Folder feature.

Dialog one: Set the Quick Set name, description, and options for user interaction at the control panel

Use the Set the button location for the Quick Set and options for user interaction at the control panel dialog to configure where the Quick Set button will display on the printer control panel and to configure the level of user interaction at the printer control panel.

  1. In the Quick Set Name field, type a title.

  2. In the Quick Set Description field, type a description explaining what the Quick Set will save.
  3. From the Quick Set Start Option list, select one of the following options:

• Option one: Enter application, then user presses Start
• Option two: Start instantly upon selection

Select one of the following prompt options :

  • Prompt for original sides
  • Prompt for additional pages
  • Require Preview

NOTE: If Start instantly upon selection is selected, the destination folder must be entered in the next step.

    The folder path can either be the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) (e.g., \ servername.us.companyname.net 'scans) or the IP address of the server (e.g., \ 16.88.20.20 'scans). Be sure that the folder path (e.g., 'scans) follows the FQDN or IP address.

HP PageWide Enterprise 785f - Method one: Use the Scan to Network Folder Wizard - 5

NOTE: The FQDN can be more reliable than the IP address. If the server gets its IP address via DHCP, the IP address can change. However, the connection with an IP address might be faster because the printer does not need to use DNS to find the destination server.

  1. To automatically create a subfolder for scanned documents in the destination folder, select a

NOTE: To find the Windows domain in Windows 7, click Start, click Control Panel, and then click System.

To find the Windows domain in Windows 8, click Search, enter System in the search box, and then click System.

The domain is listed under Computer name, domain, and workgroup settings.

NOTE: If a shared folder is set to be accessed by everyone, values for a workgroup name (default is "Workgroup"), a user name and password must be entered in the corresponding fields. However, if the folder is within a particular user's folders and not Public, the user name and password of that user must be used.

NOTE: An IP address might be necessary instead of a computer name. Many home routers do not handle computer names well, and there is no Domain Name Server (DNS). In this case, it is best to set up a static IP address on the shared PC to alleviate the problem of DHCP assigning a new IP address. On a typical home router, this is done by setting a static IP address that is on the same subnet, but outside the DHCP address range.

Printer does not pick up paper or misfeeds

Introduction

The following solutions can help solve problems if the printer is not picking up paper from the tray or is picking up multiple sheets of paper at one time. Either of these situations can result in paper jams.

• The printer does not pick up paper
The printer picks up multiple sheets of paper
• The document feeder jams, skews, or picks up multiple sheets of paper

The printer does not pick up paper

If the printer does not pick up paper from the tray, try these solutions.

  1. Open the printer and remove any jammed sheets of paper. Verify that no torn remnants of paper remain inside the printer.
  2. Load the tray with the correct size of paper for the job.
  3. Make sure the paper size and type are set correctly on the printer control panel.

  4. Make sure the paper guides in the tray are adjusted correctly for the size of paper. Adjust the guides to the appropriate indentation in the tray. The arrow on the tray guide should line up exactly with the marking on the tray.

NOTE: Do not adjust the paper guides tightly against the paper stack. Adjust them to the indentations or markings in the tray.

The following images show examples of the paper-size indentations in the trays for various printers. Most HP printers have markings similar to these.

  1. Verify that the humidity in the room is within specifications for this printer and that paper is being stored in unopened packages. Most reams of paper are sold in moisture-proof wrapping to keep paper dry.

In high-humidity environments, paper at the top of the stack in the tray can absorb moisture, and it might have a wavy or uneven appearance. If this happens, remove the top 5 to 10 sheets of paper from the stack.

In low-humidity environments, excess static electricity can cause sheets of paper to stick together. If this happens, remove the paper from the tray, and flex the stack by holding it at each end and bringing the ends up to form a U shape. Then, rotate the ends down to reverse the U shape. Next, hold each side of the stack of paper, and repeat this process. This process releases individual sheets without introducing static electricity. Straighten the paper stack against a table before returning it to the tray.

Figure 9-3 Technique for flexing the paper stack
HP PageWide Enterprise 785f - The printer does not pick up paper - 5

natural_image Illustration showing two hands performing a fold-up of a folded fabric or material (no text or symbols present)
  1. Check the printer control panel to see if it is displaying a prompt to feed the paper manually. Load paper and continue.
  2. The rollers above the tray might be contaminated. Clean the rollers with a lint-free cloth dampened with warm water. Use distilled water, if it is available.

CAUTION: Do not spray water directly on to the printer. Instead, spray water on the cloth or dab the cloth in water and wring it out before cleaning the rollers.

The following image shows examples of the roller location for various printers.

NOTE: Fanning the paper introduces static electricity. Instead of fanning the paper, flex the stack by holding it at each end and bringing the ends up to form a U shape. Then, rotate the ends down to reverse the U shape. Next, hold each side of the stack of paper, and repeat this process. This process releases individual sheets without introducing static electricity. Straighten the paper stack against a table before returning it to the tray.

  1. Use only paper that meets HP specifications for this printer.

  2. Verify that the humidity in the room is within specifications for this printer, and that paper is being stored in unopened packages. Most reams of paper are sold in moisture-proof wrapping to keep paper dry.

In high-humidity environments, paper at the top of the stack in the tray can absorb moisture, and it might have a wavy or uneven appearance. If this happens, remove the top 5 to 10 sheets of paper from the stack.

In low-humidity environments, excess static electricity can cause sheets of paper to stick together. If this happens, remove the paper from the tray, and flex the stack as described above.

  1. Use paper that is not wrinkled, folded, or damaged. If necessary, use paper from a different package.

  2. Make sure the tray is not overfilled by checking the stack-height markings inside the tray. If it is overfilled, remove the entire stack of paper from the tray, straighten the stack, and then return some of the paper to the tray.

The following images show examples of the stack-height markings in the trays for various printers. Most HP printers have markings similar to these. Also make sure that all sheets of paper are below the tabs near the stack-height marks. These tabs help hold the paper in the correct position as it enters the printer.

The document feeder jams, skews, or picks up multiple sheets of paper

NOTE: This information applies to MFP printers only.

The original might have something on it, such as staples or self-adhesive notes, that must be removed.
- Check that all rollers are in place and that the roller-access cover inside the document feeder is closed.
• Make sure that the top document-feeder cover is closed.
- The pages might not be placed correctly. Straighten the pages and adjust the paper guides to center the stack.
The paper guides must be touching the sides of the paper stack to work correctly. Make sure that the paper stack is straight and the guides are against the paper stack.
- The document feeder input tray or output bin might contain more than the maximum number of pages. Make sure the paper stack fits below the guides in the input tray, and remove pages from the output bin.
- Verify that there are no pieces of paper, staples, paper clips, or other debris in the paper path.
Clean the document-feeder rollers and the separation pad. Use compressed air or a clean, lint-free cloth moistened with warm water. If misfeeds still occur, replace the rollers.
- From the Home screen on the printer control panel, scroll to and touch the Supplies button. Check the status of the document-feeder kit, and replace it if necessary.

Improve print quality

Introduction

Occasionally, the printer might have print-quality issues such as streaks or fading, missing black or other colors, blurred or fuzzy text, and ink streaks or smears. Try the following solutions in the order presented. When one of the solutions resolves the issue, there is no need to continue with the other procedures.

HP PageWide Enterprise 785f - Introduction - 1

NOTE: If the issue only occurs on copies, see "Improve copy image quality."

  • Check the cartridge status
    • Update the printer firmware
    • Change the print quality setting
    • Print from a different software program
    • Check paper and quality settings
    • Check grayscale and black settings

Check the cartridge status

Print quality problems can occur when using a cartridge that is at its estimated end of life. Follow these steps to check the estimated life remaining in the cartridges and if applicable, the status of other replaceable maintenance parts.

  • The Supplies Status Page indicates when a supply level is very low. After an HP supply has reached the very low threshold, HP's premium protection warranty on that supply has ended.
  • The cartridge does not need to be replaced now unless the print quality is no longer acceptable. Consider having a replacement available to install when print quality is no longer acceptable.
  • If you determine that you need to replace a cartridge or other replaceable maintenance parts, the Supplies Status Page lists the genuine HP part numbers.

Update the printer firmware

Try updating the printer firmware. For more information, go to www.hp.com/support and select the option to Get software and drivers. Then follow the prompts to navigate to the firmware download for the printer.

Check paper and the printing environment

Complete the following steps to check the paper that you are using and the printer's physical environment.

Step one: Use paper that meets HP specifications

Some print-quality problems arise from using paper that does not meet HP specifications. Problems could include curled paper, light or faded printing, ink specks or smears, and misshapen characters. Follow these guidelines when selecting paper:

• Always use a paper type and weight that this printer supports.
- Use paper that is of good quality and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, staples, and curled or bent edges.
• Use paper that has not been previously printed on.
• Use paper that does not contain metallic material, such as glitter.

  • Place the printer on a sturdy, level surface.
  • Remove anything that is blocking the vents on the printer. The printer requires good air flow on all sides, including the top.
  • Protect the printer from airborne debris, dust, steam, grease, or other elements that can leave residue inside the printer.

Visually inspect the cartridge

Follow these steps to inspect each cartridge.

CAUTION: Do not touch the gold-colored metal contacts on the edge of the cartridge. Fingerprints on the metal contacts can cause print-quality problems.

HP PageWide Enterprise 785f - Visually inspect the cartridge - 1

text_image Diagram showing a device emitting a light with a prohibition symbol, indicating no protection or anti-protection.
  1. Remove the cartridge from the printer, and verify that there is no debris in the cartridge path.
  2. Check to see whether you are using a genuine HP cartridge. A genuine HP cartridge has the word "HP" on it, or has the HP logo on it. For more information on identifying HP cartridges go to www.hp.com/go/learnaboutsupplies.

  3. Look at the gold-colored metal contacts on the cartridge.

• If you see any scratches, or other damage on the metal contacts, replace the cartridge.

Clean the printer

During the printing process, paper and dust particles can accumulate inside the printer and can cause print-quality issues such as smears, streaks, lines, or repeating marks. Begin by printing the Print Quality Report, and then continue to the appropriate cleaning procedure.

The Print Quality Report is a page that is printed with bars of color from each cartridge. The report can help you identify print-quality issues.

If the problem persists, check the document feeder separation pad and rollers for damage or wear, and replace them if necessary.

Improve fax image quality

If the printer is having fax quality problems, try the following solutions in the order presented to resolve the issue.

• Check the scanner glass for dirt and smudges
• Check the send -fax resolution settings
- Check the image-adjustment settings
• Optimize tax quality for text or pictures
• Check the error-correction settings
• Check the fit-to-page setting
- Clean the pickup rollers and separation pad in the document feeder
- Send to a different fax machine
• Check the sender's fax machine

Try these few simple steps first:

• Use the flatbed scanner rather than the document feeder.
• Use high-quality originals.
- When using the document feeder, load the original document into the feeder correctly, using the paper guides, to avoid unclear or skewed images.

If the problem still exists, try these additional solutions. If they do not fix the problem, see "Improve print quality" for further solutions.

Check the scanner glass for dirt and smudges

Over time, specks of debris might collect on the scanner glass and white plastic backing, which can affect performance. Use the following procedure to clean the scanner if the printed pages have streaks, unwanted lines, black dots, poor print quality, or unclear text.

  1. Open the scanner lid,

  2. Clean the scanner glass and the document feeder strips with a soft cloth or sponge that has been moistened with nonabrasive glass cleaner.

CAUTION: Do not use abrasives, acetone, benzene, ammonia, ethyl alcohol, or carbon tetrachloride on any part of the printer; these can damage the printer. Do not place liquids directly on the glass or platen. They might seep and damage the printer.

NOTE: If you are having trouble with streaks on copies when you are using the document feeder, be sure to clean the small strip of glass on the left side of the scanner.

  1. Dry the glass and white plastic parts with a chamois or a cellulose sponge to prevent spotting.

  2. Connect the power cable to an outlet, and then

Check the image-adjustment settings

Adjust these additional settings to improve send-fax quality:

Sharpness: Clarify or soften the image. For example, increasing the sharpness could make text appear crisper, but decreasing it could make photos appear smoother.
- Darkness: Increase or decrease the amount of white and black used in colors in scanned images.
- Contrast: Increase or decrease the difference between the lightest and the darkest color on the page.
Background Cleanup: Remove faint colors from the background of scanned images. For example, if the original document is printed on colored paper, use this feature to lighten the background without affecting the darkness of the image.
- Automatic Tone: Available for Flow printers only. The printer automatically adjusts the Darkness, Contrast, and Background Cleanup settings to the most appropriate for the scanned document.

  1. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, select Fax.

  2. Select Options.

  3. In the Options pane, scroll to and select Image Adjustment.

Send to a different fax machine

Try sending the fax to a different fax machine. If the fax quality is better, the problem is related to the initial recipient's fax machine settings or supplies status.

Check the sender's fax machine

Ask the sender to try sending from a different fax machine. If the fax quality is better, the problem is with the sender's fax machine. If a different fax machine is unavailable, ask the sender to consider making the following changes:

• Make sure the original document is on white (not colored) paper.
- Increase the fax resolution, quality level, or contrast settings.
• If possible, send the fax from a computer software program.

Solve wired network problems

Introduction

Certain types of problems can indicate there is a network communication problem. These problems include the following issues:

• The periodic loss of ability to communicate with the printer
• The printer cannot be found during driver installation
• A periodic failure to print

NOTE: If you have been experiencing intermittent loss of network connectivity, first update the printer firmware. For instructions on how to update the printer firmware, go to http://support.hp.com, search for your printer, and then search on "update the firmware."

Check the following items to verify that the printer is communicating with the network. Before beginning, print a configuration page from the printer control panel and locate the printer IP address that is listed on this page.

Poor physical connection
• The computer is unable to communicate with the printer
The printer is using incorrect link and duplex settings for the network
• New software programs might be causing compatibility problems
• The computer or workstation might be set up incorrectly
• The printer is disabled, or other network settings are incorrect

NOTE: HP does not support peer-to-peer networking, as the feature is a function of Microsoft operating systems and not of the HP print drivers. For more information, go to Microsoft at www.microsoft.com.

Poor physical connection

  • For Windows, click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then press Enter.
  • For OS X, go to Applications, then Utilities, and open Terminal.

b. Type ping followed by the IP address for your printer.

c. If the window displays round-trip times, the network is working.

  1. If the ping command failed, verify that the network hubs are on, and then verify that the network settings, the printer, and the computer are all configured for the same network (also known as subnet).
  2. Open the printer properties and click the Ports tab. Verify that the current IP address for the printer is selected. The printer IP address is listed on the printer configuration page.
  3. If you installed the printer using the HP standard TCP/IP port, select the box labeled Always print to this printer, even if its IP address changes.
  4. If you installed the printer using a Microsoft standard TCP/IP port, use the printer's hostname instead of the IP address.
  5. If the IP address is correct, delete the printer and then add it again.

HP recommends leaving these settings in automatic mode (the default setting). If you change these settings, you must also change them for your network.

New software programs might be causing compatibility problems

Verify that any new software programs are correctly installed and that they use the correct print driver.

The computer or workstation might be set up incorrectly

  1. Check the network drivers, print drivers, and the network redirection settings.
  2. Verify that the operating system is configured correctly.

The printer is disabled, or other network settings are incorrect

Wireless connectivity checklist

  • For printers that do not support simultaneous wired and wireless connections, verify that the network cable is not connected.
  • Verify that the printer and the wireless router are turned on and have power. Also make sure that the

  • Verify that the printer is within the range of the wireless network. For most networks, the printer must be within 30 m (100 ft) of the wireless access point (wireless router).

  • Verify that obstacles do not block the wireless signal. Remove any large metal objects between the access point and the printer. Make sure poles, walls, or support columns containing metal or concrete do not separate the printer and wireless access point.
  • Verify that the printer is located away from electronic devices that might interfere with the wireless signal. Many devices can interfere with the wireless signal including motors, cordless phones, security system cameras, other wireless networks, and some Bluetooth devices.
    • Verify that the print driver is installed on the computer.
  • Verify that you have selected the correct printer port.
  • Verify that the computer and printer connect to the same wireless network.
  • If your environment has multiple wireless signals and you need the printer to support dual band networks on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, install the HP Jetdirect 2900nw print server accessory.
    For OS X, verify that the wireless router supports Bonjour.

The printer does not print after the wireless configuration completes

  1. Make sure that the printer is turned on and in the ready state.
  2. Turn off any third-party firewalls on your computer.
  3. Make sure that the wireless network is working correctly.
  4. Make sure that your computer is working correctly. If necessary, restart the computer.
  5. Verify that you can open the printer HP Embedded Web Server from a computer on the network.

The printer does not print, and the computer has a third-party firewall installed

  1. Update the firewall with the most recent update available from the manufacturer.
  2. If programs request firewall access when you install the printer or try to print, make sure that you allow the

Cannot connect more computers to the wireless printer

  1. Make sure that the other computers are within the wireless range and that no obstacles block the signal. For most networks, the wireless range is within 30 m (100 ft) of the wireless access point.
  2. Make sure that the printer is turned on and in the ready state.
  3. Make sure there are not more than 5 concurrent Wireless Print Direct users.
  4. Turn off any third-party firewalls on your computer.
  5. Make sure that the wireless network is working correctly.
  6. Make sure that your computer is working correctly. If necessary, restart the computer.

The wireless printer loses communication when connected to a VPN

• Typically, you cannot connect to a VPN and other networks at the same time.

The network does not appear in the wireless networks list

• Make sure the wireless router is turned on and has power.
- The network might be hidden. However, you can still connect to a hidden network. Make sure the router/access point is advertising the SSID by checking for its SSID in the available networks seen by your mobile device.

The wireless network is not functioning

  1. For printers that do not support simultaneous wired and wireless connections, make sure that the network cable is disconnected.
  2. To verify if the network has lost communication, try connecting other devices to the network.
  3. Test network communication by pinging the network.
    a. Open a command-line prompt on your computer.
    For Windows, click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then press Enter.

Reduce interference on a wireless network

The following tips can reduce interference in a wireless network:

  • Keep the wireless devices away from large metal objects, such as filing cabinets, and other electromagnetic devices, such as microwaves and cordless telephones. These objects can disrupt radio signals.
  • Keep the wireless devices away from large masonry structures and other building structures. These objects can absorb radio waves and lower signal strength.
  • Position the wireless router in a central location in line of sight with the wireless printers on the network.

• General fax problems

Checklist for solving fax problems

Use the following checklist to help identify the cause of any fax-related problems you encounter:

Are you using the fax cable supplied with the fax accessory? This fax accessory has been tested with the supplied fax cable to meet RJ11 and functional specifications. Do not substitute another fax cable; the analog-fax accessory requires an analog-fax cable. It also requires an analog phone connection.
- Is the fax/phone line connector seated in the outlet on the fax accessory? Make sure that the phone jack is correctly seated in the outlet. Insert the connector into the outlet until it "clicks."

NOTE: Verify that the phone jack is connected to the tax port rather than to the network port. The ports are similar.

- Is the phone wall jack working properly? Verify that a dial tone exists by attaching a phone to the wall jack. Can you hear a dial tone, and can you make or receive a phone call?

What type of phone line are you using?

• Dedicated line: A standard analog fax/phone line assigned to receive or send taxes.
NOTE: The phone line should be for printer fax use only and not shared with other types of telephone devices. Examples include alarm systems that use the phone line for notifications to a monitoring company.
PBX system: A business-environment phone system. Standard home phones and the fax accessory use an analog phone signal. Some PBX systems are digital and might not be compatible with the fax accessory. You might need an interfacing Analog Telephone Adapter (ATA) to connect the fax machine to digital PBX systems.
Roll-over lines: A phone system feature where a new call "rolls over" to the next available line when the first incoming line is busy. Try attaching the printer to the first incoming phone line. The fax accessory answers

Does your phone line have a call-waiting feature?

If the fax telephone line has an activated call-waiting feature, a call-waiting notice can interrupt a fax call in progress, which causes a communication error. Ensure that a call-waiting feature is not active on the fax telephone line.

Check fax accessory status

If the analog-fax accessory does not appear to be functioning, print a Configuration Page report to check the status.

  1. From the Home screen, scroll to and select Reports.
  2. Open the following menus:

  3. Configuration/Status Pages

  4. Configuration Page

  5. Touch the Print button to print the report, or touch the View button to view the report on the screen. The report consists of several pages.

NOTE: The printer IP address or host name is listed on the Jetdirect Page.

On the Fax Accessory Page of the Configuration Page, under the Hardware Information heading, check the Modem Status. The following table identifies the status conditions and possible solutions.

NOTE: If the Fax Accessory Page does not print, there might be a problem with the analog fax accessory. If you are using LAN fax or Internet fax, those configurations could be disabling the feature.

Operational / EnabledThe analog-fax accessory is installed and ready.
Operational / DisabledThe fax accessory is installed, but you have not configured the required fax settings yet.The fax accessory is installed and operational; however, the HP Digital Sencing utility has either disabled the printer fax feature or has enabled LAN fax. When LAN fax is enabled, the analog-fax feature is disabled. Only one fax feature, either LAN fax or analog fax can be enabled at a time.

General fax problems

The following are some common fax problems.
