Hi

 

Mac Mini 2012 10.12.6 Sierra.

 

Finally got HP envy 5544 to scan.

 

I think I did it by downloading firmware update from HP 

 

https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-envy-5540-all-in-one-printer-series/5447939/mode...

 

Then doing the 'enable scan to computer' malarkey in the HP utility

 

Then using apple's own Image Capture - lots of quality options.

 

Yay

 

[slightly, only lost 0.5 of a day of my life]

Also seems to be working fine with VueScan.

 

Also, note that I'm not using Instant Ink and

 

I am using USB connection.

HP Easy scan will not work with HP1600  after MAC upgrade to Sierra.

ElricFtang: The point is not buying a new printer but finding a way to use the printer I already have so in my case it is not useful at all to know that Sierra WILL scan with other printers, it seems kind of obvious that it wiould do so with newer printer models.

That is not helpful. I have an HP 1600 all in one.

Easy Scan does not work with an HP1600 all in one after upgrading to Sierra from El Capitan.

AU contraire , my little honourw student,

 

The problems is most likely software.

 

Just delete its prefs and if that doesn't fix it, download the Sierra combo  not  the updatewr and reinstall
