I have a Vista system and an old hp 1315. the CD driver that came with it includes some very useful software that cannot be installed in my laptop. according to the hp website, that's because Vista comes with a compatible software for my hardware. checking Windows Help & Support gave me this solution:

Open to Windows Photo Gallery, click File then click Import from Camera or Scanner.

i did exactly that and it worked!

i hope this was of some help.

I ran into this problem myself. The scan button does not work on my printer. I chatted with a HP technician about it. He gave me some solutions to this problem. There are two ways to scan a document.

Way # 1----Click on the following in this order:
1. Windows
2. All Programs
3. Accessories
4. Paint
5. File Menu
6. From Scanner or Camera
7. Scan


Way # 2----Click on the following in this order:
1. Windows
2. All Programs
3. HP
4. HP Solution Center
5. Scan Picture
6. Select File type from file type drop down arrow
7. Scan
8. OK

Both of these worked for me. I was able to rotate the scanned picture in Paint. I hope that this helps you resolve your issue.

Have you installed the printer software from the CD?

There is a program called HP DIRECTOR on the CD. Or you can download it from HP.

Once installed, an icon will show up on the desktop (HP DIRECTOR).

Open it and use the scan option. It will scan any photo or document into your computer for you.

Go to hp's site, search drivers/software for the free download. Select your operating system, then download. It contains all of the bells and whistles from the original CD that came with the machine.

SOURCE: HOW TO SCAN ON HP PSC 1315

If you go to www.hp.com
Do a search on your printer.
Look for an option for drivers and downloads.
Select your printer and windows vista.
You need to find the print, scan, fax drivers. Not just the printer drivers.
The driver download would be like 800 MegaBytes instead of like 2 or 3 MegaBytes.

SOURCE: How do I Scan a doucment with my HP PSC 1315 All-In-One InkJet

Sir,
open HP director click SCAN DOCUMENT set scan for editable text YES set original contains graphics NO if it doesn't, YES if it does (no results in smaller file) if you want to create a PDF file, leave SCAN TO set to SAVE TO FILE if you want to create a word document, change SCAN TO to MICROSOFT WORD click SCAN click ACCEPT (bottom right) tell it NO if you're done, YES if you want to scan something else If you scan more than one thing all of your scans will end up in a single multi-page file rename & save file to permanent location as you would normally.
Good Luck

I want to scan a document to the computer using my HP psc 1315. When i press the scan button, it runs up like it is going to make a copy or print a document. What am I doing wrong?

hi Heims,
The best way to do a scan with this psc is to do it from the software on your Desktop.
When you installed the printer the software will have put an icon on your desktop such as HP Solutions or similar. If you double click this icon it will bring up a panel where you can select to scan a picture or document etc.
Do the scan from this panel and it should all follow from there.
If you don't have an icon for HP on your desktop, open Programmes, find the HP printer programme and double click it to open the panel.
You can also click on the program and drag it to your desktop which will create an icon on your destop for you.
Good luck

If will need to install the software that came with the printer. If you already did that, you can start HP directory by clicking the HP icon on the right hand side of the task bar. Then click "Scan document" or "Scan Picture" depending on what you need to scan. If you select "save to disk" option, the program will ask you where to save the file.

The scan button is setup to push the scan to an application, if you uninstalled the HP scanning software, it isn't going to go anywhere. If you didn't, it will put it into your documents folder under "My Pictures" in an HP created folder.

That said, you can also go into any application, like Word. then click "Insert > Picture > From Scanner or Camera" and carry the image in directly.
