Hi Shanzia-
You don't say what make/model of your printer is. Try going on their website and see if they have a troubleshooting chapter. They likely have a section where their error codes, their causes and solutions are listed.

please help me....
I m trying to scan my document but it is showing error code 2,140,2 on PC and error code E5 at printer....my catridiges is empty is it because of that reason............

use right scanning software the try again

Try uninstalling, then installing the driver fresh. NOT an update. You could also have a bad printer cable, borrow one from a friend. No sense buying one as almost all new printers come with one!

I am trying to scan a document using Microsoft word but it is not getting scanned and showing error in uploading

I woudl try to reinstall the inc cartriges. Sound like a bad electricial connection feom one on them.

This sort of thing can be down to the fact the settings for communication to the printer is separate for printing/faxing/scanning. So you will need to find the scanning device (will usually be called HP3050 regardless, or something along the lines of that) and make sure it's set to communicate through USB and no other means.
