Can't scan from button on hp printer. Have to go through pc

Asked by Doreen McLean

I have hp photosmart b110 series printer. Everything is good except I have to scan through my laptop rather than press button on my printer. When I press button 'scan error' comes up on printer screen saying 'try to scan from computer or see documentation'. I am not very computer literate so, if you can help, can you keep it really simple. Thanks

Hi,

This feature is not supported in Linux. Linux only supports PC Scan, where the scan has to be initiated from the PC. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thansk and Regards,
