Hp Laserjet 3055 Scanner Error 3
3380 in my experience has the most problems in a scanner printer. Didn't know many has the same problems too. That company should f@#$king close up for making garbage products. I changed to Epson and for many years didn't give me any trouble. I'm not gonna buy any f@$\%king HP products again for the rest of my life. by unknown on Aug 1, 2010 at 7:14pm Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 I just hp 3380 scanner bulb warming up fixed my HP 3380 scanner error!!!Please follow the direction as stated below.Lets try to make this as easy as possible. There is one thing you can do which MAY fix the problem. Turn the power off. Lift up the adf(cover) and look on the left side and you will see a small strip of glass covered by a platic piece with one screw in the middle. Remove the screw and remove the plastic piece and then remove the strip of glass. Now take a needle nose pliers and towards the back in the opening is the belt that moves the scanner. Move the belt a little at a time until it moves the scanner almost over the opening and then use your fingernail to move it over the opening. (Or turn on and turn off repeatedly almost 20 times for moving scanner to the opening) Look down and you will see a mirror(right side gab under the scanner light). It may look clean but it has a film on it that prevents the scanner from calibrating. Use a dry q-tip and clean the mirror a couple of times and then move the scanner back towards the right and then use the pliers to move it the rest of the way to the right side. Put back the glass, the plastic cover and put t
the printer while the display shows Scanner Bulb Warming Up. It eventually shows a "Scanner Error" which I understand from google means "replace the scanner assembly" (which hp laserjet 3055 scanner bulb warming up error costs more than a new printer).Does anyone know of a way that I hp laserjet 3055 scanner error 2 solution can bypass the scanner post, or get it to pass so I can use this as a regular printer? It prints hp laserjet 3020 scanner error power on power off perfectly up until the point in the post that the "Scanner Error" generates.Any ideas would be appreciated. Jim Respond to this 0 I've fixed a few of those with the following document. You have to http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/posts/60628 be patient and maybe do it a few times, but it does work.http://h20000.www2.hp.com by moe on Apr 17, 2005 at 1:47pm Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 I tried both of those. I was able to upgrade the firmware to the latest on the website. I walked the scanner head all the way over to the left until the stepper started slipping because it couldn't go any further. http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/posts/28576 I disassembled the scanner assembly and cleaned the mirrors, as well as trying to position it under the registration strip on the inside of the scanner. No luck.I assume as part of the startup process it moves the head right and left looking for the registration strip. I only ever see it move to the left. So it could be a problem with the stepper motor or it could be a problem with the logic board (or other scanner related things). So I am hoping that I can somehow disable the scanner and just use the printer part (it works fine as long as the print job comes out before the post finishes).Any other ideas?Jim by jb6z on Apr 18, 2005 at 9:50am Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 My company owns a few 3300s, and I've had this problem with 2 of them. Every time the error comes up, I disassemble the scanner assembly. While I've got it disassembled, I clean the mirrors with glass cleaner, and also clean the inside of the glass (including the area that has the registration strip under it). This has thankfully fixed the problem for me every time. From what I understand, if cleaning the glass and mirro

It can print, copy, fax and scan. You can scan using the flatbed or with an automatic document feeder. The HP 3380 scans two pages per minute for color documents and about 3.1 pages per minute for grayscale documents. Occasionally, you may run into scanner errors when using the device. You can solve most of the errors at home. Poor Image QualityWhen you scan something, it may not come out looking exactly like the original. This is frustrating, but you can sometimes easily solve the problem. Not using the original picture or document can cause image quality problems. Some possible solutions include reducing the size of the image after scanning, printing the scanned image to see if it's any clearer, and checking the resolution and color settings. If the image looks better on screen than when it prints, adjust your computer monitor settings or the resolution and color settings in the scanner software. Partial ScanIf the entire image doesn't scan, consider adjusting the resolution and color settings on the scanner if the image has a color background. You can also enhance the image after you scan it using the scanner software. If the document you scan has two sides, the back side can sometimes bleed through into the scanned image if the media is too thin. Verify that the original meets the minimum and maximum size requirements. Slow ScanA scan that takes too long is also frustrating. If your resolution and color levels are set high, the scan will take longer. You can speed up the scan by setting it to scan in grayscale or black and white. A print or copy job that's in progress will also slow down a scan because they all processes share the same memory. Scanner Error MessagesFour error messages are most common with the HP 3380: "Unable to activate TWAIN source," "An error occurred while acquiring the image," "Scanner initialization failed" and "Error communicating with scanner." Most of these errors have to do with a connection problem. Check that the USB or IEEE 1284-B parallel cable is correctly connected to the port on your computer. If you have more than one port, connect to another port. If you have another device connected to the port
