What software must i have to use the scan option on a Hp PSC 1610 v?

What OS (including the version) is running on your computer? Is it XP? The drv in the file name indicates that this is the basic HP all-in-one driver. For this, you must launch the scans from your computer. With XP, that means Paint (launch the program, choose File > Import from Camera or Scanner > New Scan)

If you want the full-featured software and to be able to launch the scan from the all-in-one, go to HP and check the specifications for runnng the Full Software. For XP, the PSC 1610 download is here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=oj-30256-2&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=390315&sw_lang=&os=228 . The file name is: nn_rub_w01_Americas_Euro1_NB.exe .

In general to select the software drivers, go to http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=390315& and select your OS. If a basic driver is available, it will be listed before the full-featured software.

I hope this helps.

You are using HP PSC 1610 and There is an easy option available for you to scan documents/pictures directly to Email since you are using Outlook.

for this, you will find need to check if HP Solution Center is installed in your pc ? if not, you need to install it to make things easier for you.

If you have not installed the complete software for your printer, you will not find HP Solution Center in your PC.

Download the Software from this link :
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4062&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=390315#N845

There is also a printing patch available incase you have upgraded your PC from Vista to Win 7

After you have installed the S/w, check for HP Solution Center on the Desktop.

Click on Scan Document and Click on DOCUMENT to EMAIL option and click Scan, The Scanned document will automatically get scanned and Attached to Blank Email.

Yes, the scanner program is telling you the next step and that is to uninstall the software and the device and to reinstall it by using the installation CD.

My HP Psc 1610 all in one can print & copy but can't scan. I already installed the driver for Windows 7

If you are having issues using your PSC 1610 on the Vista operating system there is actually an easy workaround using "paint" (I'm using "SnagIT").

Check it out:

For whatever reason you can't use the actual button on the printer/scanner but when you open paint you can scan the doc from your computer.

Hope this helps!

INSTALL HP CD 
PL CHECK MEM MIN 256 WIN XP RECOMMEDNDED

Normal 0 Driver could be corrupt.
Disconnect the printer or at least be sure it is turned off. I'd do both and reinstall the CD software program that came withthe printer. When the software program asks you to connect theprinter to the USB port, do so and it should again work properly.
Hope this helps. Bud

HP PSC 1610 won't scan or copy.

You should be able to find a white sticker on the bottom of the printer. The serial number will be there as well. If you have the PCS 1610 than follow the uninstall instructions given by Hp at this link:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00265838&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=390315&dlc=en&lang=en
Than go to the link below and download & install the 1610 software: HP Full Feature software/driver: No Network Support &
HP Image Zone/Photo and Imaging Unexpected Internal Error and Communications Failure Patch
That should fix your troubles. Look at the fixes while at Hp and if you feel you need other upgrades now would be a good time to download.

See if any of the following match your problem. Click the link that best suits you:
