You should reset the printer
To reset it:

1.Unplug it (remove the cable physically) from wall or from back side of the unit
2.Keep two buttons down at the same time:
a.cancel button (pink one)
b.right arrow
Buttons have to be kept together!
3.Plug the printer again (don't release buttons!)
4.After that light under three large oval buttons should turn on for a second (short blink).
If that doesn't help - repeat it. If second trial fails - reinstall the driver which is located here or go to HP service.

If you are satisfied, please rate or/and leave a testimonial. Thanks!

How do I solve the "scanner failure power off and on again" message for an h.p. 6110 officjet all-in-one printer/scanner/fax?

Hi Paul,

Scanner Failure usually results in Hardware Failure. However there is one step you can try. Try connecting the printer directly to wall outlet or any other power outlet and the issue should be resolved.

Regards,
Sean

Failure in initialization of Scanner. Scanner is offline or , scanner is turned off.

First check if the scanner is working in 'offline' mode by 'counting' a few pages.
Connect to the comp, if SCSI is the interface, you need to start the scanner first, if USB you can connect the scanner even after comp powering on. If the scanner is not recognised, reinstall driver software and scanning software.

Scanner Failure

Scanner failure means the scanner is not making enough light to see the home position. It happens when the scanner lamp ages or is covered with dust. Cycle power is just power off and on again, and see if it goes away.

Scanner link failure

This scanner requires a "Parallel or Centronics" cable and if you have a newer computer, you may only have USB connections. A "USB to CENTRONICS" cable may do the trick, but I'm not sure. Check on the web for one.
