Scanner failure Hi, I have an hp deskjet d145, when I push copy it starts to copy then says warming up, then I hear a click, then it says scanner failure turn power off...help! When I turn the power off it gives me a blank piece of paper.

The scanner motor may be jammed. The only way to fix this is by a repair technician.

I've seen a similar issue on other HP All-In-Ones. I had to contact support, but all they do is make sure you try connecting the printer to the wall outlet instead of a surge supressor, then a different wall outlet, then reset to factory defaults. After that didn't work, they submitted an replacement order.

Hope this helps

Since when this problem started (have you done any updates or instalation of application,), Have you try Reset the Printer after replug and power on.

Please find updates for your Printer from the Official website of HP

Also check out if you can go for Reinstall the Printer (best option): HP- D145 Officejet

replace the scanner or the whole unit. only way I have found is to replace the top half of the machine

it's the warm up cycle for those printers..

All over the web the concensus seems to be disassembly and cleaning bulb, mirros and/or the glass and a calibration strip. Mine has the same error, and I'm gonna try the cleaning those locations. This forum mentioned a disassembly procedure for the D145, I hope it's the same for the 7100 series (7140XI) I'll post back my success.

scanner failure, turn unit off and back on, does not help

It could be the bulb. Sometimes disassembling the scanner and thoroughly cleaning the glass and mirror will help.

I assume from your remark you are using this as a stand alone device or are you connected to Computer? If you are using as stand alone try through the computer. If you are using it through the computer then simply re install the software. If you are using it as stand alone only. Contact the makers website for more detailed support.
