Hi @Rosie0428,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
If your HP OfficeJet Pro 9018e is not scanning, here are some troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue.
Check Connection
- Ensure the printer is properly connected to your computer or network. If using Wi-Fi, ensure both the printer and computer are on the same network.
- Restart your router, printer, and computer to refresh the connection.
HP Smart App Troubleshooting
- Make sure you are using the latest version of the HP Smart App or HP Scan Software.
- Reinstall the app if it’s not working properly.
- Open the app and try scanning the document again. Check for any error messages.
Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS)
- Open a browser on a device connected to the same network as your printer.
- Type the printer’s IP address (found on the printer's display or configuration page) into the browser's address bar.
- Log into the EWS page and navigate to the Scan tab to try scanning directly from the printer’s internal web page.
Printer Software Update
- Ensure that both your printer and software have the latest updates installed.
- You can check for printer firmware updates from the HP Smart or HP Print and Scan Doctor tools.
Check Scan Settings
- Verify that the scan settings are correctly set in your scanning software or app. Make sure the scan destination is correctly configured.
- If you're trying to scan to an email or file destination, ensure the correct settings are applied.
Restart the Printer
- Power off the printer, unplug it for 30 seconds, then plug it back in and power it on. After it restarts, attempt the scan again.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
