Common problems HP Solution Center not working : Adobe Flash Player Error and Unable to scan
We would like to share some of the most frequently asked questions about HP Solution Center not working : Adobe Flash Player Error and Unable to Scan.
HP Recommended
Pagewide Pro MFP 577 dw
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Since the very last firmware update (July 2018) MAHDWOPP1N001.1829A.00.00 I cannot anymore scan to a shared folder from the printer screen panel.

 

Scan to a shared folder works when I order the scan from the PC but it is not working anymore when ordered from the Printer command screen...

 

I get the error "Connection problem General Error" on the printer panel but the printer is properly connected on the wifi and IP is corrrect and printer is reachable on the network.

 

I think this is a MAJOR bug in the firmware MAHDWOPP1N001.1829A.00.00 version.

Is it possible to downgrade to the previous firmware version 1743A ???

HP Recommended

We are having a similar PageWide Pro 577dw problem.  Different in error message, but same end result  - Cannot scan to network folder on 3 different  MFPs. The only difference here is these 3 devices are giving the same  message - "Incorrect credentials. Check your username/password"

There are a number of other 577s on the same network as well that are using the same login credentials and can scan perfectly  The ones that are failing have the firmware level of   MAHDWOPP1N001.1829A.

 

Can these be firmware downgraded?

Many thanks for the reply.

 

The first link is not applicable as I'm still running Win7 SP1 on this PC.

 

The second link solved the problem ! The step 6 was already OK (I properly checked this before) but the step 7 regarding "everyone" granted full access in the Security tab of the shared folder was missing in my case...

 

All is OK and working now ! MANY THANKS !

 

Kind Regards,
