Usb 1.0 or usb 2,flatbed scanner compatability

Is the scanner visible in Device Manager? If not you have a hardware or connection issue.

Is the connection USB or network? If network have you checked TCP/IP settings? If USB are the USB items OK in Device manager?

Is it an old scanner connected to a new Windows version such as Win7. Some old scanners are not compatible.

dear,
well to rectify this problem you have 2 options:
1. either you can purchase a PCMCIA card with 50 pin Scsi connector.

2.or USB to SCSI convertor.

all this kind of connectors and convertor are available in IT shops

If you are under Windows 7 , it's because HP doesn't produce anymore drivers for your unit beyond VISTA .
Download the latest driver available from here : http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=77368&
and try running your scanner with it . If you don't succeed , try in compatibility mode .
If it still doesn't work please don't blame me , blame HP .
Best regards .

I would check to make sure the two shipping locks are unlocked. You can find them according to the photo I have attached. This should help out.

yes it is but with drivers for the connector model.If you are using windows 7 i think you are not going to need the drivers.

1. Uninstall all the drivers
2. Power cycle your computer
3. Re-install all the drivers
4. Finally re-connect the scanner

The back panel of the scanner should have a USB connection to the right of the SCSI ID selection switch (the farthest right on the back). Just get from any source a standard male/male A/B USB cable.

Then get the correct drivers here: http://www.fujitsu.com/global/support/computing/peripheral/scanners/drivers/twain/v921720c.html . Additional software may be found here: http://www.fujitsu.com/us/services/computing/peripherals/scanners/support/drivers-downloads_index.html

I hope this helps.

make sure you follow this step :
1. install driver USB to Paralel port (LPT1) before the cable connected to PC
2. After the driver installed, install the cable - and it supposed to be detected
3. the last think u have to do is install the scanner/printer driver

if it is not work, i guess the problem is on the USB to paralel adapter, or the driver not installed correctly

There is going to be issues with connecting it in this fashion. The usb adapters are not addressed the same as a real parallel port. This means that the drivers probably do not have a chance at working. The other issue is usb ports on laptops rarely have the power to drive devices larger than a mouse or keyboard. This means that the usb adaptor may not have enough power to function. Try plugging it into a powered usb hub then to the laptop. This may give it enough power to do what you want if the drivers are compatible of course.

Good Luck.

If all else fails goto goodwill and get a usb scanner. I always see stacks of them. Most are the usb type.

My done the same way, but it just stop working one day after doing a windows download. At that time they was a download that work fine and it is still working, I forgot what web site I went to, but it was a Memorex site.

Hope this helps.
